Only the Fallen is the first book of the UnHallowed series by Tmonique Stephens. Wow she really throws you in there. I love reading angel romance for the same reason I like reading mythology romance, I like to see what the author does with the lore. I love what Tmonique Stephens does. How she did the war of the angels kind of reminded me of The Prophecy, just the first one not any other crappy sequels and ooo Viggo Mortensen as Lucifer mmmmm, anyways I digress. The same darkness, the same feel the movie has this book has, it's not all puffy clouds and angel dust, no it's dark. We all know the angels fought and in the end a great many fell, in this case not all fell completely, some who fell became UnHallowed. The UnHallowed have a chance at redemption. Gideon is one of those UnHallowed.
Over the millennia Dina has worn the armor of her mentor, Gideon, she has fought with his sword and been ridiculed for her link to him, but it hasn't stopped her from from doing her job. Especially now the gateways to hell, cruors, are opening more frequently and Dina has the ability to track where they are. It's not a Darkling or a Demoni Lord at the cruor it's Gideon who is there for the same reason she is to close the gateway. Dina is shocked but most of all angry, he has been alive this whole time and he never let her know and the fact that the UnHallowed even exist has been kept a secret from the lesser angels. Dina had to threaten the angel at the archives to look at the records.
Gideon and a few of the other UnHallowed stuck together they even adopted a halfling child. Gideon knows his where his path to redemption will led him and involving Dina is not part of his plan but the feelings they had for each other before the fall have become tenfold and Dina isn't going to allow him to sacrifice himself to close the cruor but in order to do that Dina has to do the unthinkable first.
Overall a great prequel, it has a good intro to each of the characters and to where the story may led in the future. I really enjoyed the story and love the characters.

RELEASE DAY TOUR The Unhallowed series by Tmonique Stevens

Banned from Heaven. Escaped from Hell.
Gideon has one shot at redemption. Close the portal to Hell forever and return to Heaven, leaving behind millennia of darkness. Nothing means more than restoring his grace, until the one person he vowed never to see again places herself in his direct path. He has to resist her, but she is his Heaven—and his Hell.
Risking her life to shut Hell’s gateway, the last person Dina ever expected to encounter was the one she had lost forever. Duty, not desire, is what he instilled in her and what she will follow, regardless of how he makes her ache…Until the unthinkable happens and she must choose between honor, and the only love she will ever have.
Torn between what they want and cannot have, Gideon and Dina must decide whether to make the ultimate sacrifice for the sake of humanity or let passion take them to where angels fear to tread.

About Tmonique Stephens
I wrote my first novel about a reporter and a hockey player after the U.S. hockey team won gold in the 1980 Olympics. I love writing flawed characters who reflect the emotional baggage we all carry. I write complicated stories for complicated people. Paranormal romances and fantasy novels are my favorite genre. I’ll read anything about fairies, demons, or angels, but I also enjoy Stephen King and Preston and Childs.
I’m hooked on Lucifer, The Backlist, The Strain, Vikings, Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, and BlindSpot. I can’t get enough of these shows!
I was born in St. Thomas USVI, but grew up in The Bronx, New York one mile from Yankee Stadium. I love SyFy, the History channels, and Asian cuisine. But my heart and stomach longs for anything from the Caribbean.
