{My Thoughts} – There is never really a dull moment with Eve Collins. She keeps things fascinating and real on some levels and backwards and distraught on others.

Eve and Asher are meant to be together but they aren’t suppose to be together. There are rules and laws that had been developed long before them that were put into motion in as a means of preventing that from occurring.

Asher is meant to be king of the London Clan of Gargoyles and Eve intends to be his mate. They have went through all the logistics that involve making this occur, however, there is still more that needs to be done in terms of a mating ceremony and some other minor details that have been put on hold until other situations can be dealt with.

The main objective in this book is so that Eve can save her mother from Hell. Currently her mother is being held against her will by the devil who wants Eve to trade her life, for her mothers. Eve is in a sense a very valuable weapon to both heaven and hell and depending on which side she chooses to keep company with she has the potential to start or prevent a terrible war from taking place.

In the last book Eve found out who is is that is working against The London Clan and why things have been as bad as they have and she had been holding that information to herself. She decided to share it with ArchAngel Micheal her father to see if he could find out if the information were true or not and she had not heard back from him in that regard. She was then left with no other choice but to share the information with with Keegan, Asher’s brother and by doing so she had shown her worthiness to The London Clan.

What is the information she shared? What does it have to do with the War that is inevitably going to occur? What is her true place in all that is to come and all that is to happen? And can hers and Asher’s love survive all the tests and trials that it will be facing until this whole situation is ultimately resolved? All of these questions can be answered while reading this book, it will also open you up to a whole lot more questions that will lead you to wonder what is in store for the final book!

Type of read: Lunch/Weekend Read.

What made me pick it up: Suggested by a friend and coworker who is letting me borrow the series after they're done reading them.

Overall rating: Just a recap of my reviews from the first three books in the Revelation series...For when you need a good book that doesn't completely ruin you, this is the series for you. It's low-pressure, low-stress, and slightly predictable content that can suck you in but doesn't overtake your day.

Now on to the review of 'Revolution.' I feel like the beginning of the book was the most ridiculous tease ever and it almost felt like Cooley Wilson had thought there was a plot twist they wanted to take and then during editing they were just like 'ope, not a fan of that anymore, let's go back to what we know.' This was my least favorite in the series so far and I felt like there was so much that was thrown into the book just to make that arch to the end of the story. I'm really hoping we end on a high note and that this isn't the start of the fall of Cooley Wilson.

Reader's Note: Revolution includes themes of death, dying, assault, torture, and sex. We get to a very mild level of spice. There is also some light BDSM.

This wasn’t my favourite of the series but it was still mostly enjoyable. I feel
Like the angst between Eve and Asher is just getting a bit too much now it’s never ending and they do behave very immaturely at times Eve I can kind of understand as she is only eighteen but Asher is meant to be an age-old gargoyle and he just came across as very young also the language he uses around Eve is very YA.

Also though this ups the heat I wanted more passion and physical connection between them. Overall I did feel there was a lot of filler going on here that is until at least two thirds through then everything seems to explode and it was like a race to the finish. We also get to learn the identity of the traitor and this then ends on another cliffhanger finish.

Overall I’m enjoying this still and I will be reading the last book I just think this probably could have been condensed slightly.

I'm hooked. Despite my earlier reviews. I clearly want to know what happen and I can't just stop so it's not as bad as i thought.

I just wish there was more lessons, training, history given all the supernatural beings involved. It kind of just skims over it. And the jumps in the story line are a bit frustrating but she does a good job of filling in some of the blanks or enough blanks in 1-3 lines.
