The archangels watch as the Creator makes animals. Three centuries of celestial time pass which are equivalent to a hundred million Earth years. The concept of animals is unfamiliar to the angels and they struggle with the entirely new word. After awkward small talk, they agree that they have witnessed "a wonderful thing." They praise the Creator's manifestation of space and the universal laws but they are confused about the Creator's plans to make animals. They are "impressed and thoughtful" but feel the need to discuss what they have seen. They stand behind the Creator as he forges the universe from nothingness and then they retire to a quiet room. Around him are Satan, Gabriel, and Michael who are the three archangels who make up the Grand Council. He sits on a throne and considers the universe. To be blunt, Aisling’s wisecracks and bumbling is getting pretty durn tedious. In the first two books, You Slay Me and Fire Me Up, Aisling’s cluelessness was charming and the chemistry between Aisling and Drake was scorching. I enjoy MacAlister’s sense of humor but it, and the first person narration, is getting old. Holy Smokes was not as strong as the series’ earlier books. There is a large canvas of characters, and a decent amount of unique terminology. The relationship between Aisling and Drake, and their world, has developed over the series. He’s never let me down — yet…Īs you may have guessed, Holy Smokes is definitely not a standalone book. Good thing I have Jim, my doggie-demon at my side. Me? I have warring dragons, ticked-off demon lords, eternal damnation, and a mage who wants to challenge me for an otherworldly position I don’t even want. That is, if we ever make it to the wedding at the same time! Being left at the altar may have cooled my jets, but not my passion… a good thing when Drake disappears and it’s up to me to find him. Most brides just have in-laws to worry about. I’m Aisling Grey — but you can call me “frustrated.” The man of my dreams — uber-sexy Drake Vireo, wyvern of the green dragons — has finally decided to make an honest woman of me. Devon’s review of Holy Smokes (Aisling Grey, Guardian, Book 4) by Katie MacAlisterĬontemporary paranormal romance published by Signet But the beauty of the ranch and the immediate connection Jake feels with his wife’s cousin Kira slowly begins to heal his wounds.
