Summary from author's website:
A Demon Enslaved…
Lore is a Seminus half-breed demon who has been forced to act as his dark master’s assassin. Now to earn his freedom and save his sister’s life, he must complete one last kill. Powerful and ruthless, he’ll stop at nothing to carry out this deadly mission.
An Angel Tempted…
Idess is an earthbound angel with a wild side sworn to protect the human Lore is targeting. She’s determined to thwart her wickedly handsome adversary by any means necessary—even if that means risking her vow of eternal chastity. But what begins as a simple seduction soon turns into a passion that leaves both angel and demon craving complete surrender.
Torn between duty and desire, Lore and Idess must join forces as they battle their attraction for each other. Because an enemy from the past is rising again—hellbent on vengeance and unthinkable destruction.
Lore was introduced to us in Passion Unleashed. He was hired to kill the Sem brothers when it was discovered that he was a Sem brother himself. Lore is an assassin. His touch is deadly. And in order to be free from his master and to save his sister's life, he must complete one last kill. Idess is an earthbound angel waiting to Ascend. The target of Lore's final kill is a human that Idess is charged with protecting. Not only does Lore have to contend with a hot, angel getting in his way but also his brothers because his target is someone who will put him in direct conflict with his newly found family.
Lore is my second favorite brother (sorry E and Shade). Even though he's an assassin, the reasons behind why he does what he does are honorable. I loved the development of Lore's and Idess' relationship. They started off as "enemies"; on opposite sides of the fence. Their attraction was a nice, gradual progression. It didn't feel forced. And it didn't hurt that Lore is a Seminus demon that needed frequent sexual release or else he would "rage". That helped move things along quite nicely. Idess is a strong female character who can hold her own. But even she didn't have a choice but to give in to the charms of the sexy Sem demon.
Like Wraith's book, Ecstasy Unveiled was a nice mixture of dark undertone, hot demon/angel smex and light humor. I loved the use of nicknames when Lore would refer to Idess; Cookie, my favorite, was too cute. He called her Cookie because after their first encounter, Lore said that she smelled as if she bathed in cinnamon sugar. Idess was called anything but her name throughout the book; Cookie, Snickerdoodle, Angel Cake and my favorite courtesy of Wraith, Halo.
We're also introduced to Lore's twin sister, Sin. She's a female Sem Demon who has a deadly touch. She is truly unique as Seminus demons are always male. Sin doesn't want to have anything to do with her new family and tries to keep them at arms length. We learn a little about her past and her relationship with Lore in Ecstasy Unveiled. Sin's story will be featured in Book 5, Sin Undone. Sin was annoying at times due to her crankiness and "I don't need anyone" attitude but I'm hoping that she redeems herself in Sin Undone.
Again, why I love Wraith. Cute little nickname he gives Sin - Smurfette. Because she's the only female Seminus demon amongst the males. Gotta love that Wraith!
