Summary
A standalone story in the Shadow Beast Shifters world。 Best read after Reborn for storyline continuity。
Melalekin "Angel" of the Honor Meadows has been a warrior her entire life。 Battle。 Death。 Loss。 They were her constant companions until the day she met Mera Callahan。 A shifter who ended up being so much more。 A shifter who changed her life， and now。。。 she has been reborn。 The scars of her past are gone。 Her losses muted under the new life she plans on living。
There's just one being standing in her way。 A grudge holding desert deity who has made an art form out of making her life hell。
Reece of the Desert Lands is a god unused to being defied， and he has a very long memory when it comes to those who wronged him。 Angel is the one he blames for the worst loss in his life， and he'll never let her forget it。 Their history is tragic and bloodied， and the pair are set to clash one more time， especially when they end up trapped in the very spot where they lost it all。 A meeting of the dynasties in the Delfora， the ancient desert lands， will force them to the place it all began。
Here they will learn that sometimes the past defines your future。 And that there is a fine line between love and hate。
* This is a standalone in the Shadow Beast world， and does NOT end on a cliffhanger。 It is full length at 100k words， and it is advised to read the first three in the Shadow Beast Shifters series first （Rejected， Reclaimed， Reborn）。 This is an enemies to lovers story， with action， snark， anti-heroes， and steam。 It is recommended for 18+ due to storyline and situations。

Fantastic addition to this world This was a highly anticipated story after reading Shadow and Mera's story in the Shadow Beast Shifters trilogy。 I couldn't wait to find out about Reece and Angel's ancient history from this world and to revisit with all the characters as well。 Fantastic addition to this world This was a highly anticipated story after reading Shadow and Mera's story in the Shadow Beast Shifters trilogy。 I couldn't wait to find out about Reece and Angel's ancient history from this world and to revisit with all the characters as well。 。。。more

Great addition to this group of friends This was a good book， it was everything that this couple needed。 I will say the the plot was predictable but some times it just good to watch the love between two souls。 I love the group of friends and I am more excited for Simone’s story than anyone else！

Desert lands I was so excited to read this book。 The continuation in the timeline and getting to read about the next couple 。 Angel needed her own story and I was really looking forward to her and Reece’s story。 I was not disappointed with the connection they shared！ I missed a little bit more of the time they got to connect but with it being only one book for them it works。 I’m eagerly waiting for the next book。

So GoodI chose this rating because， well， why not。 Jaymin Eve is an exceptional writer and in this story you will get to know Angel who is also from the Shadow Beast Shifters series。 If you haven't read the 3 SBS books you really need to， you don't have to but all the characters in this book are from the last 3 books and you will find yourself enjoying it allot more。 I loved getting to know Angel and of her history。 The main male character Reese is nothing but perfection and every woman's dream So GoodI chose this rating because， well， why not。 Jaymin Eve is an exceptional writer and in this story you will get to know Angel who is also from the Shadow Beast Shifters series。 If you haven't read the 3 SBS books you really need to， you don't have to but all the characters in this book are from the last 3 books and you will find yourself enjoying it allot more。 I loved getting to know Angel and of her history。 The main male character Reese is nothing but perfection and every woman's dream man。 Both of these characters together make the perfect couple。 Thank you for another awesome read。 Xx 。。。more

And love continuesI love this world and when I first stated reading it felt like a continuation of the Shadow Beast but from a different point of view。 It was lovely to continue with favourites but with a new centre。 Can’t wait for the next one。

#DesertAngel for the win！This book is so freaking good that it immediately calls for a reread！ Jaymin Eve once again does an amazing job of pulling at all your emotions from heart eyes frequently to laughter to rage on the characters’ behalves to tears to swooning。 Angel is the best bestie and Reece is #HotGodAlert！ Plus the desert lands were a whole new world to explore。

Another awesome Jaymin Eve book I have to lead this review with the fact that Jaymin Eve is firmly in my top 5 favourite authors & the shadow beast trilogy is in my top 3 of stories written by Jaymin。 So my expectations were high & did not disappoint at all。This is a standalone book that is a spin off for the shadow beast trilogy。 Therefore Mera & Shadow are in this book & Jaymin doesn't just ignore them & they don't swamp this story either。 The story follows Angel & Reece， it is full of emotion Another awesome Jaymin Eve book I have to lead this review with the fact that Jaymin Eve is firmly in my top 5 favourite authors & the shadow beast trilogy is in my top 3 of stories written by Jaymin。 So my expectations were high & did not disappoint at all。This is a standalone book that is a spin off for the shadow beast trilogy。 Therefore Mera & Shadow are in this book & Jaymin doesn't just ignore them & they don't swamp this story either。 The story follows Angel & Reece， it is full of emotion and there are tear jerking moments and hot， hot， hot moments， plus funny moments。 If you don't want a book hangover don't read the Compelled teaser as immediately you'll want to read compelled。。。。 but his story is complete and is fantastic。 If you like pnr you'll live this。 。。。more

WOW WOW WOWI absolutely love Jaymin and the world she has created in this series。 The Shadowbeast series hold a special place in my heart since it was the first book I read this year and kicked off my reading frenzy。 Deserted was just wow！！！！！ I love Angel so freaking much so when Jaymin announced she was getting her own book I straight up did a happy dance。 As always she did a fantasy job weaving the story and I could not put it down。 I can't wait for the next book！！！！ WOW WOW WOWI absolutely love Jaymin and the world she has created in this series。 The Shadowbeast series hold a special place in my heart since it was the first book I read this year and kicked off my reading frenzy。 Deserted was just wow！！！！！ I love Angel so freaking much so when Jaymin announced she was getting her own book I straight up did a happy dance。 As always she did a fantasy job weaving the story and I could not put it down。 I can't wait for the next book！！！！ 。。。more

I was so excited that Angel & Reece’s were getting their own book。 I really wanted to know what was going on with them and I wasn’t disappointed at all。 Angel & Reece have history and I really enjoyed their story and there time together。 Another amazing read that gave me all the feels。 Truly an amazing read with phenomenal characters。 I can’t wait for Lucien & Simon’s story next。

Fun read！I enjoyed this story。 Was happy to see Angel still being a badass and The smut scenes were great。 Mera was in it too much （in my opinion） considering this wasn’t supposed to be her story， and I would have liked more background story on Reece and Angel to get more angst。 Was a bit predictable but overall a quick fun read。

What an awesome book！！ I don’t know about anyone else， but all through the Shadow Beast books I wondered what the story was between Angel and Reece， and this book does not disappoint。 Their story has all the feels and plenty of heat， and will leave you with a good feeling when you finish it。 I could not stop reading it！！ You will not regret reading it！！

GoodI loved reading about Angel and Reece。 Although the stubbornness of centuries is really sad。 The big finale had a lot of emotions in it， and you won’t be able to help the tears。 Reece is also really dang scary powerful。

Desert sexinessHot tamale！ This is one heck of a doozy！！ Reece and Angel are the reason that enemies to lovers trope is all well loved！ The past angst along with the lust and sexual need makes it one explosive story。 I cannot wait to see what comes next in the shadow realm story line！！

DNF@79%。 Angel is just boring， Reece is a lame imitation of Shadow and the plot has more holes in it than a swiss cheese。 I barely made it to 79% and then I just had no more will to subject myself to this nonsense。

Oh， Jaymin。 What have you done to me？ Reese and Angels story was absolutely amazing。 From the very beginning I was drawn in。 I mean Mera and Shadow were the best so I knew this would be one of the greats。 But wow。 I freaking loved their story。 This kept me intrigued page and page， I seriously couldn’t put it down。 Jaymin has such a way with her words and her stories。 This was no different。 We are brought into this world where we don’t want to leave。 A large part has to do with Angel and Reese bu Oh， Jaymin。 What have you done to me？ Reese and Angels story was absolutely amazing。 From the very beginning I was drawn in。 I mean Mera and Shadow were the best so I knew this would be one of the greats。 But wow。 I freaking loved their story。 This kept me intrigued page and page， I seriously couldn’t put it down。 Jaymin has such a way with her words and her stories。 This was no different。 We are brought into this world where we don’t want to leave。 A large part has to do with Angel and Reese but my goodness。 I am obsessed with this whole series。 Angel and Reese have a bitter past you could say。 Lots of unfinished business。 And this adds to the slow burn。 It was such a tear jerker I swear。 They had my emotions everywhere。 The passion， steam and romance were perfectly illustrated and I’m so excited to see what we get next in this series！ 。。。more
