Ahhhhh! Where to start!?!?!
When I first purchased this book on my barnes and noble Nook, I was shocked to see that it was over five hundred pages long. I thought that it would take me forever to finish it, but boy was I wrong. I don't think I have ever read a book this fast! I finished this book in about five hours total.

What a fantastic read! There are so many things to love about this story; the beautiful setting, the plot line...the romance! What, or I should say, who, I loved most was our tiny heroine, Hannah. Before we even become aware that she's "magic", she graces us with a personality and charm so real, I fell instantly in love with her and the beautiful bond she has with her very loving and protective mother, Emma.

I have to say that I was hooked from the very beginning. Deena give's you no warm up time in this book and I love it. From the very beginning you feel for Emma, a single mom who has absolutely no one and is afraid after a abusive marriage to allow anyone in her life. Her daughter Hannah is having horrible nightmares and neither of them has gotten a good night sleep in months. She finally realizes that she might need to talk to someone, so she decides to tell her coworker and principle of Hannah'...more

Deena Remiel weaves an interesting tale revolving around the ultimate battle of good versus evil. In this novel, we are introduced to the three main characters, Emma, Hannah, and Michael; however, unlike most authors, Remiel does not give in depth histories of each person at the beginning of the story. Instead she opts to let the readers get to know her characters as the plot progresses which really builds suspense and seems to let the characters tell the story themselves. The mother, Emma has t...more

I was hoping... No, it didn't get better...
My impresson is that it was written by a robot (and not a cognisant robot!!!).
There's no emotion.
The story is witten like this: heros have to defend the good from evel; they get together; they talk about strategy; the H meets h and the kiss and fall in bed; they fight evel; they win; the end. How sad not being able to make it better even with all that pages at disposal...

How long can one person keep a wall up to protect their heart? Emma is about to find out. Dealing with her daughters nightmares (that seem to be coming more often) alone, just doesn’t seem to be in the cards anymore.

Overall, Trinity was a ok read. I would give it between a 2.5 to 3 stars.
To me, it was an easy mindless read. Mindless in the sense that the storyline rolled smoothly and the story was good but a little underdeveloped. Trinity didn't pull to hard at my emotions. There were somethings about the book that did bother me. I couldn't get past the fact that the Great Protector of all humans and angels would call his love interest "honey".

The premise of this book intrigued me, it's not often you find the heroine to be a single Mum, especially in PNR!
Emma moves to a small town with her daughter Hannah following a what I can only guess was a messy divorce. We join them almost six years later when Hannah has been having recurring nightmares that are becoming more vivid and affecting their real lives.

It was a pretty good read. I liked the characters and the overall story was good. However, the dialog and even in between had a flair for the dramatic, even going so far as "world domination". Also, the utilization of a six year old child to be a warrior was a bit much for me. I understand that she is supposed to have the soul of an ancient warrior with her, but really she is just a child and a six year old should not be yielding a sword. The story felt a bit forced and over dramatic at times, b...more

Loved this book! From beginning to end, I was enthralled with the storyline. I love a good paranormal and this book delivers all around. The romance was spicy and as the saying goes, I definitely would not kick Michael out of my bed. Trinity would appeal to a wide-audience, male and female alike, as the romance isn’t as heavy in Trinity as in other paranormal romances. This is a must read, and I’m eagerly awaiting book 2 in this series. My suggestion is...READ THIS BOOK and then tell all your fr...more

I was rather disappointed with this book.
It started off SO well, and then somewhere along the way the Author 'dropped the ball'.
The idea of the Trinity: A Protector, A Warrior Child, and A Great Healing Mother was really good, BUT I think what really bothered me the most about this book was the dialogue between the characters. From about the middle of the book to the end, I felt as if I was reading an essay. There just was no 'depth' to the characters.

Michael is not just the principal of Hannah’s school, he is a Protector angel and a member of the Brethren, angels who protect mankind and fight the evil forces that wish them harm. Together, Michael,...more
Absolutely beautifully written.
This is my 1st time reading anything from Mrs. Remiel and honestly after reading this book in what only lasted for two days, it won't be the last time. This book not only tugged at my heart strings but it also made you think and become in awe of the characters in this book. It also showed the strength of a mother's love in Emma for her daughter Hannah.
I honestly loved this book very much so and I can't wait to read some more from Deena Remiel.

I loved this book! It is a great story and very well written. I was captivated from the beginning. The Brethren are a bunch of handsome and hunky angels. It is a story about a mothers love for her child, answered prayers in the form of the Brethren, and a budding love between a woman and an angel. I'm going to read the next book in this series right now :) I hope you enjoyed this book as much as I did. Happy reading!!!
Angels in leather = YUM!
5yo Hannah is having nightmares. Or so her mother thinks. At her wits end, Emma approaches the one and only person she can confide in--her boss, Principal Michael D'Angelo. He's sexy and ... oh yeah, he's an angel!
Intense storyline with nail-biting moments. A must read for any paranormal romance fan!

Wonderful story! Gorgeous angels, romance, action and the love of a mother who would do anything to keep her child safe. Then there's Michael, their protector. WOW! I was disappointed that there was not more detail in the romance scenes between the two main characters, but overall I enjoyed it and would recommend this book.
Family is a powerful thing. Deena Remiel reminds us that the greatest motivation to save the world is love. The hardest opponent to defeat is a mothers love. And the superpower most feared is unity. All these combine into an unbeatable Trinity. I give this tale of learning to trust and finding strength through love 2 thumbs up.
I loved this unique story of good vs. evil. Loved all of Ms.Remiel's personal additions, and versions, of demons and hell-hounds.
I highly recommend this for anyone who loves angel, demons, and romance.
