WOW. Double WOW! Now that I've regained my senses, can I quickly laugh? I know... not exactly the kind of reaction you'd think you'd get from me so let me explain. Having met Deena (SQUEE) and read her book, Trinity (SQUEE x2) I was excited for the chance to read Brethren Beginnings for the Menage A Blog Tour she was participating in. One of the first things Deena said was "But it has no romance!" and it's to that I now chuckle. Dear, dear Deena - yes, I love romance but I love just as passionat...more
After reading Trinity and being first introduced to the Brethren, I was so excited to learn that Deena was writing little stories about them. I was even more excited when I got the inbox from Deena to review this book. Woohoo who would pass up a chance to read more about those gorgeous Brethren angels?!?!

I was pleasantly pleased with this short novel. All of about 75 pages on my Nook it was a quick read and each chapter left me wanting to know more about that Brothers. From Gabriel, to Nathaniel to Cassiel, I so want to read more, plus what about Raphael and Zadkiel we don't even get to touch on their stories in this Volume. Totally ready for more. Very well written, not too much and not too little description, action, etc. Keeps you on the edge of your seat wanting more. If you are into angels,...more
What a great set of stories. Once I started reading I didn't put it down. I am used to reading PNR and this left me without the R but it was delightfully refreshing. I fell in love with all the angels instantly. Their personalities and witty remarks comes across quickly in these short stories. I look forward to reading more about these Brethren in the future.
Definitely worth the time.
Definitely worth the time.
This book contains a sample of the collective stories of Deena Remiel’s wonderful creations, The Brethren, Earthbound angels protecting humanity from evil. In this first volume, we are given the stories of Gabriel Seeker, a Protector angel, Nathaniel, a Warrior and Cassiel, a Savior. These are the three classifications of Brethren, each with a specific purpose and unique role in the ongoing war against evil.
