Rate: Loved it




Met Kayson, a Fallen Angel. Why did he fall? Because of something that no one else but him believes, not even God.
Since Kayson has fallen, he has been running from the hell hounds, looking for a Blood Child. Looking for The Blood Child. But things aren’t easy, they got complicated when Kayson finds himself face to face with a Hell Hound. 

Met Falon, he is the Alpha of the Hell Hounds, the one leading the Hell Hounds to destroy Blood Childs. His loyalty is unwavering, and he believes in his master’s plan. Falon plans more than just destroying Blood Childs. He wants to drag Kayson back to hell with him.

Sabrina is a Vampire, she was created from one of Lucifer’s original blood children. She has been running and hiding for years, but her hiding days are left behind when she finds an almost dead Kayson. Against what her head tells her, she decides to help Kayson, leaving her and Kayson marked. Now the Hell Hounds are after Kayson, and because she is with him, they are after her as well.

Emma, an ordinary human, whose worst problems where getting over her brother who has caused so much pain to all her family. But her life becomes far from ordinary the moment she entered her parent’s house and found a Fallen Angel and a Vampire, Kayson and Sabrina, running from a fearful and supernatural evil.

Now, all of them will have to figured out a way to make their difference aside and fight against supernatural creatures of the underworld in order to save their life, and for Kayson it means prove his believes.


Broken Faith is the first book of the Spiritual Discord series by Brandy Nacole. It is a delightful, staggering and unique book. The ingredients that make this book an unforgettable read are: a cup of vampires, a teaspoon of fallen angels, 100 g of evil hell hounds, a pinch of humans and one pack of ghosts! Then proceed to mix all the ingredients adding a perfect touch of forbidden love and an incredible amount of talent and BANG! You have this piece of delicious art called Broken Faith.

Have you ever felt, when you were starting to read a book, that you were going to fall in love with it? Even though you have read just the first page? Well that is exactly what happened with Broken Faith. We fell in love immediately with it! We knew from the beginning that this was a 5 gorjuss doll!

We have our reasons to like it so much. One of the many reasons we felt like nothing else was around us while we were reading Broken Faith has a name: Kayson.
Kayson is a Fallen Angel *fangirling*, he is so sweet and peaceful. We loved the reason why he fell! It was so noble, just like him. And before you ask, he is super hot! Come on, he is an angel he has to be really handsome doesn’t he? Anyway, leaving beauty aside, we love him because he is a gentleman and has a heart as big as heaven and hell together.
We could keep like this all day, giving you a long, long list of reasons to love Kayson, but one thing we love the most about him is his reason to be a Fallen Angel (I got you! You want to know what it is, right?  You will have to read Broken Faith *wink*)

…Oh yeah, Sabrina! I almost forgot I have been writing a review *got lost in my thoughts thinking about Kayson*. We love her as much as we love Kayson, for different reasons of course. She has been through a lot. We can’t imagine a life running and hiding. We liked her so much because of how evil she pretends to be. But, in the end, she's not actually being bad. She is such a good girl/vampire. We felt really sorry about how she became a vampire. We wanted to hug her and never let her go. We also wanted to slap her at some point, but we partly understand why she was acting the way she did. So we had some strong mixed feelings here.

As for the other characters, well… Emma, we didn’t like nor hate her. She is a normal girl, with normal problems, and a huge attraction to Kayson (which is normal since we have made clear everyone loves angels that look like him). But we have to admit that it has been a time when we wanted nothing more than to punch her in the face! Why? No giving away anything here, we encourage you to read Broken Faith and punch her by yourself *laughing*

OMG! I almost forgot! The bad boys, aka Hell Hounds! No need to say we hate them right? They were so evil that it terrified us! They were perfectly described. Such a good description that you could perfectly made an image of them, chasing the good guys.

About the book, we liked that you could see different POVs. You not only feel like dying of love, but of fear, too, because you get to see Falon's POV, which is as scary! We would love to see this more frequently, I mean, see the story from the bad guy's POV and remain the evil/bad one.

We want to congratulate Brandy, not so many people can write 4 different points of view and don’t make you get lost. That's the reason we love Brandy's fluent writing and we are so eager to read more of her future books.
Ok guys, I think I have said enough, and I have made clear that Broken Faith is not an ordinary book with a bunch of supernatural creatures, but an I-am-going-to-get-to-you-and-make-you-fall-in-love-with-me-that-you-are-not-going-to-be-capable-of-put-me-down kind of book.

We encourage you to read Broken Faith! But make sure you have a comfortable seat with food on hand, because you won’t be able to stop reading this wonderful book. Once you start, you wouldn't be able to stop reading it.

Being unique isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.

After searching all over the world for someone as unique as she is, Racquel finds herself back in her home town where she’s treated like a monster ready to kill. Racquel is one of the most unique beings ever created. Four of the most powerful beings in the Shadow World are intertwined within her, making up her unique DNA. But no matter how unique her bloodline is, she’s considered an outcast by the entire Shadow World.

Once arriving home, Racquel finds that greater evils exist and that the person she cares for most in this world, her half-sister Addie, has been kidnapped along with other Shadow World beings. Racquel finds herself facing horrible odds with those who would rather see her dead than alive.

As her journey continues, Racquel learns more about herself, what she is capable of, and that not every being looks at her as an abomination. Coy, a human captive that Racquel saves from the Vampires, starts showing kindness toward her. Racquel tries putting distance between her and the human boy but as they spend more time together it becomes harder and harder for Racquel to fight the affection she wants and needs.

But will Coy’s friendship and her new found discoveries be enough to help Racquel unravel the strangest mystery that has ever plagued the Shadow World?

"This is it. The moment Heaven and Hell clash. But which unearthly being will win, the fallen angel or Hell's hounds?

Overtaken by fear, I close my eyes."

Kayson is a Fallen Angel who has spent decades running from the Hell Hounds while searching for something that no one else believes can be so, not even God. Kayson is determined to find a Blood Child. But when a hound finds Kayson first, he is sure his end has come.
Falon, Alpha of the Hell Hounds, destroyer of the blood children, and devoted believer in his master’s plan, is bound and determined to drag Kayson back to Hell with him.
Sabrina is a Vampire, a half-breed created from one of Lucifer’s original blood children. After years of hiding, Sabrina’s fate changes when she finds Kayson barely alive. Against her instincts, Sabrina saves him. Now she and Kayson are both marked by the Hell Hounds.
Emma is an ordinary human, whose only problem is making ends meet, and getting over the hurt caused by her untrustworthy brother. Her everyday problems become supernatural ones when she finds Kayson and Sabrina hiding in her parent’s backyard shed.

Kayson, Sabrina and Emma are unlikely allies, thrown together by chance to fight against the most powerful creatures of the underworld in order to follow their world-changing quest. But will the broken faith of one break the faith of all?




We're happy to welcome to our Fantastic Flying Book Club to Broken Faith and Uniquely Unwelcome written by Brandy Nacole, and that's why we wanted to get to know the author a little bit more and wanted to share it with you, Book Addicts!


The Vampire Academy and Bloodlines.  Sigh…. Adrian J





At night when it’s quiet and I can let my imagination soar.  Plus, during the day I want to usually go outside and do something so I’m easily distracted.  Definitely a night writer.  


Vampire Diaries 


My ideal day would be sunny with a high of 75 degrees with no humidity.  A good flowing creek, friends all around, so we can enjoy the day floating.  After that, a bonfire.  After hearing one too many spooky stories, I would go sit on the cabin’s back deck in an overstuffed chair and read until I fell asleep. 

Avril Lavigne’s – Here’s to never growing old


Almost anything Italian.


Of course he has to be fun and witty.  What fun is life without some humor?  I think a hidden intelligence is sexy.  He tries to portray that he’s not smart, but really he is.  Strong and protective, but not an overbearing pain in the butt. 
As far as looks go-as long as he has green eyes, I’m a sucker.  Toned muscle mass doesn’t really matter to me, although too much muscle can be gross.   


 And here I thought some of these previous one’s where tough.  Well, as awesome as mythology is, I would have to say magic. 


Fantasy

“There is nothing to writing.  All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed.”  -Ernest Hemingway 




No matter what anyone tells you, you are great and can accomplish your dreams as long as you believe in yourself.  No matter how big or small your dream is, ignore the haters, stay focused, and you will make it happen.
