Archangel Gabriel is hoping for a quiet period in his life to enjoy his relationship with Archangel Michael, but someone has other ideas.

New dangers arise when the Holy Grail is stolen. Gabriel, Michael, and the rest of the Brotherhood of Archangels and their allies must somehow thwart the twisted desires of the thief.

Their search for the Grail takes them all over the world, calling on old friends like Uriel and Raziel, and forging powerful new alliances. Though they face a fresh set of perils in pursuit of the thief, the enduring comfort Gabriel needs so much, that of his beloved Michael never abandons him.

Review: The Holy Grail has been stolen and it is imperative that it be found and taken to its rightful place before the entire world unravels. Having very little clues the Archangels begin an investigation and discover that whoever has it can cloak themselves so that not even they can sense them. With the help of the Arch demons, again everyone begins to feel the effects of the grail being stolen.

I really enjoyed reading this book and will warn everyone that ends in a cliffhanger. All the couples do their best to help in these trying times. Michael’s group has an Alpha female, Angelique, that I don’t care for as she belittled one of her pack behind his back and to his face in front of others. She should’ve been helping him not putting him down. She has let the Alpha status go to her head and tries to order even those not in her pack around.

That’s not a good Alpha in my opinion. I hope she is not in the rest of the series.
The fact that whoever took the grail is able to cloak themselves is very troubling. I hope the archangels and arch demons find a solution around it.

Great story with amazing details and filled with mystery, suspense, action, and a lot of drama. Hot sex all throughout.
Great series so far. Can’t wait to read the rest.
