Here
Comes the Son
by
Dahlia Donovan
Genre:
MM Urban Fantasy
When
evil stirs in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains, heroes come in both
ordinary and extraordinary packages.
Ignatius
Faber knows a few things for absolute certain. He’s half-demon, his
father is the unequivocal prince of darkness, and demons want to
destroy his city. And if he doesn’t make the first move on his
crush, they’re never going to be anything more than a teenage
fantasy that’s lasted into his thirties.
Lalo
Pavia grew up hard and fast, orphaned at a young age. As an autistic,
he’s learned to approach life cautiously. He throws his energy into
gardening and photography—allowing both to provide a buffer between
himself and the rest of the world.
Except
for Iggy.
Can
they find triumph, life, and even love in the middle of a city in
flames?
Their
fight for the mile high city has just begun.
Turned out to be a fun afternoon with this gang.
Iggy is our resident demon slayer. His character was a touch self-absorbed, but not in an evil way, more of an oops I forgot the world doesn't revolve around me way. .. oh did I mention his pops was Satan? Seems he has a touch of dear old dad in him.
Lalo is a blast. He has his issues but he also had a dry wit to him that was hilarious. He also was quick to see things others didn't. Something that benefited him on numerous occasions okay except the whole drone thing that would not have been my first choice for sample collection, though it was kind of funny.
Wendy was a wonderful addition to the story line. Intelligent, caring, just a touch overly excited at times (tends to happen with a mind like hers). Like Lalo, her mind operated a bit differently allowing her to pick up on things others would miss. Whereas Lalo seemed to be more visual attuned to the world Wendy saw outside the box.
Together they made a pretty kick-arse trio.
The priests are hiding something, seems their agenda may be a lot more selfish than they let on. They were an added touch of mystery and suspense to the story line.
Overall it was an entertaining story.
An easy to read new adult paranormal with a pretty solid plot line and some great characters.
I occasionally had trouble with the lull's in the storytelling and some of the characters actions/ reactions didn't (IMO) fit the scenes.
It is hard to explain that part it felt more like a maturity thing -
Iggy is 40'ish and at times he acts 16.
I did enjoy the budding romance between Iggy and Lalo.
I found my curiosity was a bit more engaged the further I got into the story.
There are a few twists and "omg no way" moments ... some had me laughing
others had me white-knuckling.
