Synopsis: Sasha is desperate to find out who murdered
her father. When getting the answer means pledging her soul to Eryx, she
unlocks a secret that puts her in grave danger—she is an Anabo, a daughter of
Eve, and Eryx’s biggest threat.
A son of Hell, immortal, and bound to Earth
forever, Jax looks for redemption in the Mephisto Covenant—God’s promise he
will find peace in the love of an Anabo. After a thousand years, he’s finally
found the girl he’s been searching for: Sasha.
With the threat of Eryx always looming, Jax
knows he has to keep Sasha safe and win her over. But can he? Will Sasha love him and give up
her mortal life?
On the
beginning of the book it already got me hooked. A lot of thing had happened that
got me so intrigue. The plot is very rich and carefully crafted. Plus the set
of characters are awesome and they played their part perfectly. It’s fast pace
at some point and yet at some it just goes on with its normal pace.
Sasha is very
sweet and I found how awesome and helpful she is. I could even picture how
innocent and her face. I can’t help but pity her for all the bullying they’re
doing with her. And also her total being intrigues me especially the prophecy
and destiny that awaits her. Well for Ajax since he’s a creature of hell, I don’t
feel the essence of him doing a typical dark creature thing; instead I find him
sweet and a total gentleman.
I like the
concept about heaven and hell and salvation for people who did their best to
earn it, plus the concept of a prophecy coming true. Although I just don’t like
the ending because it came into a total rush. But then it’s a pretty good start
for a series and I have a good feeling that the story will progress and it will
surpass my expectations.
