When Angels Fall

It was five years since Elizabeth Alcester had laid eyes on her former stable boy, Ivan Tramore . . . five years since her world had collapsed in devastating ruin around her. Now, penniless and desperate, she finds herself at the mercy of a cruel, ruthless stranger--a man who vows to possess her, whose hot searing caresses fan the flames of her darkest desires. Tramore had returned home in triumph--the unwanted bastard was now Lord Iva, eleventh Marquis of Powerscourt--the most powerful man in London. Yet one woman had sworn to defy him . . . the proud beauty whose touch had branded him forever. But when at last he holds Lissa trembling in his merciless embrace, his lust for vengeance suddenly explodes in a frenzied fever of passion, and now no power on heaven or earth can tear him from the innocent arms that hold him captive, or protect her from the rapturous moment when angels fall.

#1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts explores the wilds of the Grand Tetons—and the mysteries of love, murder, and madness—in this engrossing and passionate novel. The sole survivor of a brutal crime back East, Reece Gilmore settles in Angel’s Fall, Wyoming—temporarily, at least—and takes a job at a local diner. One day, while hiking in the mountains, she peers through her binoculars and sees a couple arguing on the bank of the churning Snake River. And suddenly, the man is on top of the woman, his hands around her throat... By the time Reece reaches a gruff loner named Brody farther down the trail, the pair is gone. And when authorities comb the area where she saw the attack, they find no trace that anyone was even there. No one in Angel’s Fall seems to believe Reece—except Brody, despite his seeming impatience and desire to keep her at arm’s length. When a series of menacing events makes it clear that someone wants her out of the way, Reece must put her trust in Brody—and herself—to find out if there is a killer in Angel’s Fall, before it’s too late.

Don’t be fooled by the soft fairy tale beginning of this work, When an Angel Falls, as it offers you another theory on how we all came into existence. Because of the current calamitous state of the world that suffers from an obvious racial divide and a drastic decline in moral fortitude, there is a clear distinction between good and evil. From the Kremlin in Russia that undermined the democracy of the Western world, to the ISIS demonic plague that is wreaking havoc in Levant in the Middle East as well as in selective countries around the world, Satan and his demons appear to be tapping into a series of triangulations, using the social network, spearfishing tactics, and dog whistling conversion methods. This triangulation starts at the point of 2 billion social media followers, followed by a seven-step breakdown to the mark of the beast. This would be explained in detail in the story should you choose to read it. The end of the world’s cycle is fast approaching. This has prompted God to send his three “Top” angels, Gabriel, Raphael, and Michael, the Archangel, who is leading the team, to earth. They are on an assignment for Him! They would literally and physically destroy and rip apart anything that tries to derail their mission to right the wrong on the earth. Stephan Smith, a morally, insightful man of faith, was touched by the angel Gabriel, and he, along with journalist Christopher Rogers, and detective Danny Stone, forms a team in California to shut down a series of wrongdoing perpetrated by white supremacists in an effort to disrupt Satan’s major diabolical plot. Thousands of miles away in London, England, Carla Wallace, a lawyer, who is accompanied by her cousin, Sandra Wright, who has the same moral strength and faith, was touched by the angel Raphael, and they, along with Brent Russell, an MI-5 agent, team up to stop a series of events designed to change the world as we know it. Dunstan Archer, who worked as an elderly caretaker in Cleburne County, Alabama, was incarnated as Andrealphus, one of Lucifer’s fallen angels. After Lucifer and his selective angels took up residence on the earth, Andrealphus soon realized that he was caught up in the politics and evil conspiracies of the day. Once he realized that he made a mistake, he decided to flee with hopes of getting back into God’s good graces. He and both of his friends, Dr. Angela Romano and Julian Bates, took an adventurous trip to the Great Angel Falls of South America, Venezuela in order to assist Sam Watson his mentor, who was incarnated by Gabriel. Every effort had to be made to defuse the dark angel’s plot. Filled with riveting, heart-stopping twists and turns, this tale is an eye-opener and a page-turner!
