Se7en Sinners #4

Fallen Reign

Rate this book
Yesterday, I had the audacity to imagine a future.

One that didn’t include hunting demons hellbent on destroying humanity or being used as a pawn for my father’s revenge. One comprised of a home and a family and all the things I’d longed for as a broken child.

Then in the blink of a silver speckled eye, my foolish hope was extinguished, and my world came crumbling down.

We stood strong. We fought. We lost.

I lost.

Legion, the demon I dared to love, was gone.

Now I’m going to tear myself in two and do the unthinkable to find him. I’m going to put my trust in his brother—his enemy—and make a deal with the Devil. And while his darkness and depravity echo mine, I know this won’t end well for either of us.

My body may survive, maybe even my soul. I can’t promise the same for my heart. This time, I will not fail. I will not hesitate. And if it comes down to it, I’ll be the weapon I was created to be. I will follow the code of the Se7en and do what I should have done when we had the chance.

Kill one to save a million.
Kill him to save the world.

What a world this turned out to be....my, my, my...
S.L. Jennings proved once more that she's amongst the most exclusive writers of fantasy genre, cause this book is, in fact, the absolute realm of fantasy, at its finest.

The ending in book 3, Wicked Ruin left me with a trembling gasp on my lips with a heavy load on my chest, as Legion became the ultimate embodiment of his full name - The Legion of souls - as his body was occupied with the evilness of the fallen - The Many and they want the chaos on Earth, the Hell bent and twisted, the devastation of rampage with the ultimate goal - to rule.
He's no longer mine. He belongs to The Many.

Eden is, yet again, on another quest of finding the way how to save the man/demon she gave her heart to, and while the Se7en gain a mortal hit in their ranks, there are no allies, and seemingly there's no hope in sight...the heavily guarded secrets are revealed, and Eden is again faced with her TRUE destiny and nature of who she is and what she's bred to do...
Our days are numbered. I can literally count them on one hand with fingers to spare. And it feels like we're more lost now than we were when we first arrived. At this point i feel like giving up. I can't keep waiting for another crisis, another tragedy, knowing that it will be even worst than the last.

until the unlikely ally appears, the one and only, King of all evil, as he steps up and offers his alliance...with an agenda and a plan...or he just might have another ace up in his sleeve...when it all seems hopeless

And yet, their odds are weary and are NOT in their favor...

the the time is running out...

the pressure is rising...

the lingering sense of desperation is suffocating them all and the need of absolution is growing...


the circumstances will turn three lives into a vivid interlaced bond of need in desolation...

and the presence of powerful magic, turmoil of entities' overwhelming forces , will connect Lucifer and Eden in a heart-shattering and soul-captivating carnal escape that would change the grasping of future...but it would also give Lucifer just a semblance of vulnerable notion of humanity...
"I've wanted you for so long, Eden. And I know right now you think you want me too. I realize I'm a fool for pretending that this is real - that this could somehow last beyond this night. So I'm asking you...remember me. Just try even when all thought of me is wiped away clean. Remember me like I'll remember you for the rest of my tortured existence.

But when the final countdown begins, and all the factors, and powers, newly gained and controlled, won't be enough to conquer The Many and Legion's body and his one soul is on the brink of existence, it will take many sacrifices...to save them all, to save a brother, to save a long lost grace of a fallen angel...to save her.
So, I'm going to kiss you, because I'm a selfish bastard, and once my lips abandon yours, you won't remember all the things I will stubbornly cherish even when I'm no more than ash in the wind. So kiss me and forget, my beautiful Eden. And after you do, my face will be that of a sinister stranger as I was before.




and yet there are higher powers that hold a stake in the everlasting and never-ending battle between the good and evil

...and yet the lines are more blurred then ever...while the most devious of players ever prevail...





I have to say that I was once again shattered, stunned and surprised by the roller coaster of events and pent up emotions and riled up action sequences, that I can honestly just gasp like a fish on a dry land catching her final breaths before the merciful hand gives her back to the sea, or it's life's final destination...*sigh* LOL, it sound oh, so dramatic and theatrical in my exillirating exclamations...

but I don't care, S.L. Jennings rules the fantasy genre, while she masterfully combines religious, celestial motives and characters with a contemporary elements of a forbidden, taboo romance, second chances at love and life, self-discovery, growth, loss, pain, desperation then hope and acceptance

...and yet, for me, there's NO walking away from this story, these multi-layered, complex and captivating characters, riveting, thrilling and effortless storytelling...

p.s.

Through out the series Born Sinner (Se7en Sinners, #1) by S.L. Jennings End of Eden (Se7en Sinners, #2) by S.L. Jennings Wicked Ruin (Se7en Sinners, #3) by S.L. Jennings Fallen Reign (Se7en Sinners, #4) by S.L. Jennings

I was in a tight clinch with myself LOL, I was cheering for the most obvious of heroes - Legion, yet he was NOT that obvious, and he was more tormented and complexed than any other character out there *sigh*, then I was astoundingly enveloped by the deviously allure of Lucifer, to all that is holy, he was absolutely the king of the unholiness LOL, yet he ruled with such palpable determination, sharp wit and sarcastic humor deceiving each and every particle of my mind and soul, and before I knew it, he entered not only Eden's sphere of existence, but he fucking OWNED mine, too.

So, this time, I went for the underdog...even though he's far from it, far, far from it *smirks* as he absolutely dominated this story, for me #TeamLucifer

ARC-BOOK Review
Release Date-29/3/18

Oh, this book, this book, this book I absolutely adored each and every word, even as it chewed me up inside emotionally and spat me back out, even as I sat there getting strange looks from my partner as tears streamed down my face.

"Fallen Reign" gutted me, but in such a good way.
Not sure that even makes sense but you will understand what I'm getting at when you experience this fabulous piece of fiction for yourself.
This is hands down my favourite book of the series and it thoroughly deserves its full five stars.
I so want to ramble on about everything that clicked for me here but I cant as this would definitely spoil it for you.
Just let me say that "Fallen Reign" is going to turn everything you think you want from this story and totally turn it on his head.
So let go of your preconceptions and just go with the flow.
This is definitely a one-sitter read so clear your calendar as I guarantee you will not be able to put this down once you start.
This is a fantastic and worthy finale to what has been a great series.
Hopefully, we may get a cameo from these characters in future S.L. Jennings writings.
Or even better a certain someone may get his own HEA. that would be so epic.
Sad to say goodbye to Eden, Legion, Lucifer, the seven and all else who made this series so addictive.
I have a serious book hangover now.
I highly recommend "The seven Sinners" series give it a go if you like your PNR.
Thank You to the Author for providing me with an ARC of ( Fallen Reign (Se7en Sinners, #4) of which I have reviewed voluntary.
All opinions expressed are entirely my own.

THIS BOOK IS EVERYTHING
I’m so sad and I feel like I need someone to hold me. And that person that sleeps next to me thinks I’m being ridiculous bc I told him I needed him to come home to do that. I hope he has a very “nice” night on the couch. Lol. Anyways I’m sad bc this series is over. It’s just over. What am I supposed to do with my life now? Think about the little people and just give us more words S.l. Jennings. And if that begging doesn’t work I’ll give you my littlest spawn of Satan. She is 4. Good luck with that one. Satan aka Luc has nothing on her. But for real this in my opinion was the best one out of the SE7EN series. I honestly thought it was going one direction and you were like “Haha jokes on you bitches.” And yes I said that as what I imagined you sounded like. I devoured this book and it was everything and more. It ended, I think just how it was always supposed to end. I have never cursed more or threw my tablet like a child more. It’s that freaking good. It’s one of those books when you don’t know how everything is going to play out. You get mad, angsty, hot and bothered, and at some points don’t know if you are up or down. I. LOVED. IT. Thank you for the giveaway I won the arc on. I can not wait for everyone else to read this book. Depending on how other readers want it to end, I’ll pray for you when they send the lynch mob. Lol
Thank you!

Brilliant! Just absolutely and positively brilliant! THIS BOOK is complete perfection. The storytelling is delicious, the writing evocative and suspenseful. This whole series is a wickedly addictive masterpiece!

Fallen Reign is the 4th and final installment of Eden & Legion’s story in the Se7en Sinners series and it did NOT disappoint. This apocalyptical tale is filled with so many unpredictable plot twists that made my head spin. It kept me sitting on a knife-teetering edge the entire time, not knowing which was way up, down, right or left. I had no idea which way this story was going to go and it had my emotions all over the spectrum with every single turn of the page.

Fallen Reign picks up right where the last book left off. The Many have taken control of Legion with a plan to spark chaos in every single corner of the world, unleashing Hell on Earth in their wake. Meanwhile, Eden makes a deal with the Devil to help her along the way on her mission to save Legion from the lost souls. This deal sparks a kinship between the two and ignites hidden desires.

I won't give away too much else or it will spoil the whole book because every detail is intertwined and intricately layered within the plot. Questions are answered and all is revealed, but some of these revelations may have you changing loyalties with certain characters.

And I never thought I would say this, but...

description

I've been 100% Team Legion but Lucifer stole the show, and my heart, and now I'm all twisted up over Luc, so much that I've now crossed over to the dark side and my loyalties lie with Satan. And why, you ask, have I fallen in love with the Devil?

Here are a few Lucifer quotes that will help plead my case:

“I don’t give a fuck about dying humans. I don’t give a fuck about the Se7en. And I sure as hell don’t give a fuck about what you think we should and shouldn’t do. You are my concern. That’s it. That’s all that fucking matters. So you can curse me. You can hate me. But at the end of the day, you know that I would let this world burn to ashes to keep you safe.” - Lucifer

"Hating him was so much easier when I didn’t truly know him. And while he may pretend that he cares about nothing but himself, these past few days, he has shown me different. Not when he was being crass or trying to seduce me with his pretty face and pretty words. It was those times when he wouldn’t say anything at all. When he would watch me enthusiastically stuff my face or laugh at silly romantic comedies. - Eden

"Lucifer. The Devil who sparked a fire inside me. That’s who I focus the remnants of my resolve on. That’s who makes me grit my teeth and unleash the darkest parts of my psyche. Because at my weakest, he encouraged me. Now at my strongest, he is the one that inspires me. After all he’s done and all he is, it is his beautiful face and those swirling violet eyes and that elegant swagger that motivates me to keep going. - Eden

"Twenty-two years ago, you were my new beginning, and tonight, I will succumb to my end…for you.” - Lucifer


So, you see? Luc isn't all that bad.. he does have a vulnerable side and still has a little bit of color left on his black heart. And he's definitely an anti-hero where you don't know if he'll be the star of the biggest fantasy...or nightmare...and I for damn sure won't be forgetting him any time soon.

description

But, this doesn’t mean I’ve forgotten about Legion because I still love him almost as much...but he was possessed by a million souls of the damned and I missed his character. My only regret is that we could’ve seen more of him, who he truly is, and his romance with Eden. Besides that, though, this book is still perfect and it couldn’t have ended any possible way better than it did.

The Se7en Sinners is one of my favorite series so the ending is truly bittersweet for me, but that last chapter is left wide open in case S.L. Jennings decides to pursue a few spin-off books in the future for us...and I'll be praying to baby Jesus everyday that she does because I am NOT ready to say my goodbyes to any of these characters, especially my Dark Lord, Lucifer.

This book!!!! Holy Shitballs!!! What a conclusion.

Syreeta just about destroyed me with this final book in the Se7en Sinner Series. I went in knowing it was going to be an amazing read - and she didn't disappoint.

I was conflicted for a lot of this one, seeing sides of characters that I had tried to deny in previous books. Changing my loyalties. Some people get their HEA, others do not. I ugly cried in this one. Like, snotty faced, ugly cried. So many feelings and no matter which way you turn someone has to get hurt.

It's not an easy read. It's the kind of book that has you powering through the pages, heart pounding and unsure of who you love the most. Gah!!! I am sad this series is over but LOVE that this final book was the raw, brutal read that it had to be. Cannot recommend it enough!

I received an arc of this book.

Oh. My. God.

I loved it

No...

I hated it?

This wrecked me.

Ripped out my insides and tore them to shreds.

And I would do it all over again,

just for those moments with the Devil.

*****

There’s no cover, release date, or summary, but I’m already waiting for it to release! The first three books were so good and left me wanting more, so to have this one to look forward to certainly helps:) Fingers crosses that it comes out soon

Series Review: Coming Soon!

Sad to see this series is over but really did enjoy it overall and highly recommend if you are looking for a fast-paced, easy to read, NA paranormal series. There were lots of different elements, the characters weren't perfect but that's what made them so enjoyable, and the plot held your attention like nothing else.

The Epic Conclusion to the Se7en Series. I have to admit, I wanted a little bit more time with my main couple. I felt like they spent more time apart than together. This is me pouting. HA HA

Fallen Reign picks up exactly where we were left in the previous book. Dangling on the cliff.

Trouble? We Don't want any trouble..
What do you want?
We want your world. Your reverence. Your souls. we want the crown. But for now, we'll settle for a little chaos.

Legion is on the loose and Eden is with Lucifer, heart broken and angry.

The Legion of Lost Souls would destroy our world and everything in it. And to stop him, I had to become what I was created for. No tearful goodbyes. No proclamation of unrequited love.

" Jinn needs Angel Blood. Pure Angel blood, and a lot of it. Get a bucket, I'm about to drain this bitch!" - Eden

I enjoyed this book. However, I felt like too much was left without explanation. I won't go into it because I don't want to spoil it for anyone, but I know that this is the last of Eden & Legion's book, so I guess maybe things were not answered in this book because they will be answered in someone else's book? I don't know. But other than that it was a great read and I enjoyed this series. I don't read a lot of the paranormal genre because it has been done so many ways, but this to me was a fresh take and didn't feel like the same ole status quo.

There was some serious heat between Lucifer and Eden, and man I hate to say it but I am so team Lucifer!

" I said no. I don't give a fuck about dying humans. I don't give a fuck about the Se7en. And I sure as hell don't give a fuck about what you think we should and shouldn't do. YOU are my concern. That's it. That's all that matters. So you can curse me. You can hate me. But at the end of the day, you know that I would let this world burn to ashes to keep you safe." - Lucifer.

Mic Drop. Because that is just swoon city people!


The pages flowed effortlessly and the characters are all very well developed. I just wanted MORE of them all.

Great read. Loved the series!! Can't wait to see what S.L. Jennings does next!!!

I told you in my Wicked Ruin review that I will need the next book. I told you I will crave it. I told you, I will become a bubbling idiot over it. But I never told you, I will be WRECKED. I never told you I will be lost in the smooth and melting pages offering paranormal decadence. I never told you that I will find a book this year that will significantly destroy me. I am telling you now!!!!!Holy F, Fallen Reign completely fried me. This book is a LEGEND. This book is a MACHINE. This book is a FIREBALL. I have been waiting a whole year for this book and damn, did it deliver. I am completely lost for words right now. I can't seem to keep my wits up because Fallen Reign brought a masterpiece of a plot that had high levels of brilliance and elegance with an air of beautiful carnage. I was BLINDED. I was SCORCHED. My heart SOARED. My soul BURNED. Fallen Reign completely took every part of me and I began a slave to its magic. Wow. What a book. What a magnificent treasure. Hands down one of the best books of 2018. 6 FIRE REVVING STARS!!!!!!!!!

S.L. Jennings took me on a journey I will never recover from. Creating this series was the best writing decision she has made for her career. She brought a series that absolutely made me so excited. So original. The Se7en Series will remain my favourite paranormal series of all time. Fallen Reign is the final chapter in this mesmerizing tale of angels and demons. With blazing guns, Fallen Reign just incited me. Aroused. Coaxed me. Captivated me. Imprisoned me. I was damn emotional. I cried like the softie. I swooned hard. I smiled. I bit my nails. I got angry. I went crazy with my emotional. I was totally ruined. Fallen Reign just gave me life!!!Devastatingly haunting. Crazily striking. Deep paranormal perfection. Fallen Reign told a story of power and supernatural forces that captured me. Fallen Reign was a battle. A battle of good vs evil. A battle of dark forces. A battle of salvation and redemption. A battle of turmoil. A battle full of twist and turns. Everything was just an epic battle straight to my core. I loved it. I want to shout to the world. S.L. Jennings proved paranormal romance can be an amazing read. Her writing just magnified and transcended. She left her soul in the pages and I felt it. The feelings. The characters. Everything was laid on the table and I devoured it all.

As always in the Se7en Series, the characters are freaking good. Some characters I finally warmed up to. Some characters touched my heart. Some characters really deserved the ending they got. For me the stand out was Eden. This was her story from Born Sinner to Fallen Reign. She went from naive and annoying girl to a badass and strong woman. How far has she grown. She has transformed to one woman I championed. I am very pleased and honoured to have read her trials and triumphs throughout the series. I am definitely #TeamEden.

I am ready for the Se7en series to be over but sometimes you have to say goodbye. Ok, I am going to be an emotional mess again. I swear I would not cry but now I am. Trust me, you need the Se7em Series in your life!!!!!!!!!It will straight up hook you until you are addicted. I highly recommend it.

To say that I was looking forward to the 4th and final book of Eden and Legion's story is such an understatement. There is not a word that described my anticipation. I was sad to see there story end, but how S.L. Jennings brought us there is BEYOND PERFECT.
The twists and turns that have carried throughout this series abounded in this final book. Just when you think you have an inkling of where this is going, she hits you with AN EPIC TWIST!!
I don't want to go into too much detail because I don't want to ruin the book. BUT YOU HAVE TO READ THIS SERIES!!! If you haven't started, START NOW! Bravo Sy. BRA-FUCKING-VO!!!

I can't believe it's over! I didn't want it to ever end!!

The characters were, as always, entertaining, the world & its magic sucked me in, the secrets had me going "whaaat?!" & all the Dorian/Gabriella/Nikolai talk has me itchin' to finally read this author's Dark Light series.

*****SPOILERS*****



The only thing that really yanked my chain (& it was kinda big)... I wish a chunk of this book would've happened earlier on in the series. When a series has a love triangle in it, both guys should have their time to shine before the last book. It just didn't feel right to lean so heavily on one guy (especially the one who didn't get chosen) in the final book of a series. The guy she ended up with was hardly in this one & I found that to be disappointing.

In fact... & don't throw tomatoes at me... I'm not 100% convinced that Eden ended up with the right guy. *shrugs* The chemistry she had with Lucifer was explosive. And her saying that he might be "the captor of her soul"... Gah! I'm just left wondering, "What if..?"

That epilogue... Will we ever get to see Lucifer give humanity a "new religion"?! That last passage felt like such a tease!! Here's hoping he gets a happily ever after somewhere down the line because I bet a book fully dedicated to him would be dynamite. :)

Side Note: Adriel got off too easy. Wish they would've clipped her wings or something.

“It was as if our two souls had been lost in the dark for a thousand years, desperately searching for the other, and we had finally found each other.”

WHAT WAS THE REASON?? WHAT WAS THE REASON??!!!

“Lucifer. The Devil who sparked a fire inside me.

That’s who I focus the remnants of my resolve on. That’s who makes me grit my teeth and unleash the darkest parts of my psyche. Because at my weakest, he encouraged me. Now at my strongest, he is the one who inspires me. After all he’s done and all he is, it is his beautiful face and those swirling violet eyes and that elegant swagger that motivates me to keep going.

There’s no doubt in my mind that Legion still has my heart, but Lucifer may very well be the captor of my soul.”

I don't even know what to say really. I have loved this series since the beginning and each book has gotten better then the last. I started to re read all of the books last week in anticipation for this one. I was even more consumed with this story as I was the first time I read those books. When I started this one yesterday I couldn't get enough of it.

I am not one who cries easily while reading, ever. I don't seek out the books that are considered "tear jerkers". Why am I saying this? Well, this one made me ball my eyes out, seriously. I'm not even going to go into why or what part of the book but you will KNOW when you get to that point. I have tissues and a hug waiting for you when you get there too.

Even thought this didn't go the way I wanted it to (story line wise) I know it went the way it should of have gone. My man did the right thing in the end even though it gutted me, like it tore me up. I loved him from the start, I rooted for him, my heart broke through out this whole book for him. It is as it should be and I get it.

I am super picky about my PNR books and this one will always be one I recommend to anyone who is looking for one to get lost in. I love it so much.

*cries*
I love this series and while I’m happy with this ending, I’m torn because I’m so so so sad for the one that I came to love despite all odds.
I love PNR and Jennings does an amazing job in this genre... her characters loveable, relatable, and truly unforgettable.
This final book in the series is good vs evil and it was fast paced, action packed and unputdownable.
I’ll admit there were a couple of times, I was a bit confused but overall everything that was meant to be happened.
Good always triumphs evil, sacrifices have to be made to save humanity, and people have to remember to choose light over dark and to remember what’s important... life and love.
But I can’t help but be sad because truly I fell in love with one who never seemed redeemable but was... “I remember” *le sigh*
I can promise you I’ll never forget and while this chapter is over, I hope there will be more for my favorite ❤️

This book started off great... Eden was on her way to save her love Legion. But of course Lucifer drags along with her. Then they end up at a party, which was Lucifer’s idea, where she ends up drugged. That leads to her sleeping with Lucifer and all of the sudden she reliezes she’s in love with him. He owns her soul...wtf?! I mean in the first three books she’s worried if Legion truly loves her then all of the sudden he’s indisposed and she forgets him and falls for Lucifer. But in the end Lucifer makes him forget her. I feel like Legion got the shaft here and ended up being second place and he didn’t even know it! First half was good, second half was ridiculous!

Ok. So this is only like my 2nd review EVER. It will probably be terrible but I love this book so much that I had to leave a review.

This is the 4th and FINAL book in the Se7en Sinners Series. AND IT IS GOOOOOD! It picks right back up where Wicked Ruin left off. Eden and the Se7en are left to pick up the pieces of Legion/The Many's aftermath. I won't go into too much detail in case you're reading this because you stumbled upon it. GO BACK AND START WITH Born Sinner. I promise you will not be disappointed.

This book, y'all. This book is everything you want it to be Syreeta obviously wanted our heads to explode because that is exactly what mine did. One minute, I feel like I know exactly where the storyline is going and then BAM the storyline changes. She kept me on my toes the entire time. In the best way possible! She is a mad genius when it comes to shock factor. Seriously, y'all. How she was able to make me fall in love with these characters is a gift. I felt like I had some type of connection with every single character. But let's get into the loves of my book life. L and Luc.

Legion was lost to The Many for a long time. Eden is fighting to bring him back and to figure out a way to get rid of The Many. It's not an easy task and she has to enlist the help of Luc. *Sigh* Luc. Lucifer. The Devil. How I fell so hard for him in this book. And in Wicked Ruin. Never in my life would I think I would say that I LOVE The Devil. But here I am. And I have no shame. Because I feel like you really see a different side to Luc in this book. Sure, he's scary and intimidating at times, and he is wayyy too cocky for his britches. ;) But he's determined to save his brother and to have some type of relationship with Eden. Let me just share with you a quote that solidified my feelings for Luc not very far into the book.

I don't give a fuck about dying humans. I don't give a fuck about the Se7en. And I sure as hell don't give a fuck about what you think we should and shouldn't do. You are my concern. That's it. That's all that fucking matters. So you can curse me. You can hate me. But at the end of the day, you know that I would let this world burn to ashes to keep you safe.

I knew after reading that, he was the one for me. Although, I've been pretty partial to Luc the entire time. :) Legion wasn't that far from my mind though. Goodness, Syreeta had me worried sick about him. I literally felt like I was Eden and the feelings that I have for Luc and L are real. Like I said, She is a GENIUS!

I don't know what else to say except that this book was GOLD. I loved every minute of it. I laughed. I cried. I got angry. I had hope. I went through every emotion you could think of. Because she's that good at what she does. I'm so terribly sad that this is the end of the Se7en Series (although I'm hoping that the ending leaves it open to a possible spinoff or anything really just so I don't have to say goodbye). It doesn't matter whose side you're on, L or Luc's. If you're not emotional at the end of this book then you can't sit with me because I am an emotional casserole! Syreeta took me on an emotional rollercoaster and she didn't let me off. Seriously, I'm still on it. The ending of this book is still sinking in. But regardless of how it went, I found a new level of love and respect for my main men. They both had to test their strength and their love and they had to make sacrifices. And it was hard for my emotional heart to read. But this book, this series, is worth your time. Buy it, read it, love it. I know you will!

Disappointing

Let me start by saying this review is not a reflection of the author as a person but of tge story itself. This is the first series I have read by this author and I found it well written. However the story itself is just kind of confused. The first two books were harsh but good and set up a romance between Eden and Legion. It's supposed to be this EPIC love story where love and good triumph. And starting in the third book, the author starts a love triangle between Eden, Lucifer and Legion. It was tolerable in the third because it's just a hint but in this fourth book it's much more. SPOILERS AHEAD..........
I really didn't like Eden sleeping with Lucifer and loving it and thinking she had always wanted to do it! While Legion is suffering ( and she knows he is because she sees and speaks to him in visions). Yes Legion is losing the battle with The Many but she knows he's in there fighting yet she's having sex with Lucifer. She says she regrets it the next day bit continues to basically fall in love with Lucifer. I don't like the late love triangle and it totally cheapens the story between Legion and Eden. I finished thinking was this a love story about Eden and Legion or Eden and Lucifer? Make up your mind. Lucifer "sacrifices himself" for Eden and Legion (although it's not exactly a sacrifice since he can't really die) because he loves Eden in whatever way he can. And still I thought to myself what is so special about Eden that everyone loves so much? I don't see it. She's often impulsive, dishonest, bratty and stubborn. There are no qualities that really redeem her. I know the ending made readers happy by giving a happy ending to fans of the Dark Light series too and that was probably my favorite part as well. Because even if Niko was bad in that series, he is good in this one. And he does deserve the happy ending he gets. But unfortunately the epic love between Eden and Legion is tarnished. It doesn't matter that Lucifer made her forget about him, it matters that she slept with him to begin with and wanted it. I wondered to myself if the author did this to satisfy those readers who were wanting Eden and Lucifer to be together as well as those of who were wanting Eden and Legion to be together. Either way it kid of ruined it for me. I also wish we got more of Legion in this book. We barely see him bit only hear about the terror he is causing! Ugh.

****One of my most favorite series ever!**** Wow! I absolutely loved this series. This final installment had me anxious, sitting at the edge of my seat, crying, heart broken, which was then put back together. I was SO vested in the characters and story (wow....what an amazing imagination she has)!!

I had never read PNR prior to reading this authors Dark/Light Series. Now I’m a S.L. Jennings super fan. Her books are not only instant one-clicks for me.....they are me begging and selling my first born for ARC’s! (She doesn’t make me beg too hard!!!)

You won’t be disappointed! Promise!!

I was so In love with this serie! With Eden and Legion! The books were amazing until they were not anymore... same thing as dark light love triangles... I hate that.. and now I feel cheated. I ended up hating Eden and feeling bad for Legion and Lucifer, bah what a disappointment. Legion and Eden were meant to be! Not because Luc decided to be nice and let them! But because they were meant! The ending seems fake, like Lucifer did them a favor! But in reality Legion deserved a better ending... he was the stars and the sky in all 4 books! I don’t get why now Lucifer is the good guy... buh I’m only giving it 3 stars cs I really liked the first 2 books.

I have been obsessed with this series since the week the Born Sinner came out. Eden and Legion were an epic romance. Legion is my favourite.
I cant help but feel he got hard done by. Legion deserved a way better ending. Though Lucifer swayed me a little and I admit I did cry when he sacrificed himself but was still totally pissed that he could take Legions place at all. "Legion has my heart but Lucifer has my soul." Really? S.L how could you do that to Legion??!!! I feel like he got sloppy seconds!

1 boring stars.

SPOILERS

So basically, A ripoff of Light shadows from the dark light series. Why does both series have the same crap of making the h sleep with the H's brother? Is originality dead? Eden sleeping with Lucifer when she loves Legion and know he's suffering is so cheap. Definitely ruined the book for me and tarnished the love between Eden and Legion. I couldn't even read past that. Very disappointing.

5 Remember Me Stars 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

WOW!!! Talk about ending the series with a bang...This book was phenomenal. In fact this whole series is a sinfully wicked masterpiece from start to finish. I honestly LOVED everything about it.

Team Legion or Team Luc....That was the question for me going into this one.
Who do I want Eden to end up with. Who do I love the most. Of course I was always Legion at first. Then I couldn't decide especially after the last book. Well after reading this one I'm Team Both I can't choose between them. I refuse, it's impossible.

You have RUINED me S.l Jennings I'm a complete and utter mess of emotions after reading this.
You made me cry over the Fuxxing Devil. How's that even possible, but i tell you he broke my heart.
I know you can never trust anything he says or does he's a master manipulator but a certain part of this book really affected me I was devastated after reading it.

This book will take you on a journey of epic proportions. You'll be pulled in every direction. I can't deal with the feels from this one.
The secrets and revelations will shock the Sh!t outta you. But it's exhilarating with its twists and turns. The Phrase "The Devil is in the detail" comes to mind after reading this. Did I mention its literally Hott as Hell too.

Cain is still my favourite Character from this series. There's just something about that scarred Demon of Murder. I'm so happy we got more of him in this one. Although I'd still like a lot more of him. ( Hint Hint )

Even if you've never read a PnR book/series before take a chance and fall in love with the Se7en Sinners today. You'll be so pleased you did.

You can say The Devil made you do it. ;)

Fallen Reign is the last book in the Se7en Sinner series by the incredibly talented S.L. Jennings. I have been a fan of hers for years and every book I read solidifies my fan girl status. She may not write twenty books a year, but the ones she does are so powerful that I literally think about them for weeks. The characters she's created have taken up space in my heart and soul. And I always tend to lean toward the underdog. #Niko and #Lucifer. I'm not sure what it is about these bad boys that call to me, but they do. I digress…Fallen Reign picks up where Wicked Ruin left off. Legion is The Many and they are gone. The hunt is on the find him and destroy him before he destroys the entire world. In order to do that, Eden must trust Lucifer. It goes against everything she believes in, but this is her only chance. The Se7en aren't strong enough. She needs more. More power, more influence. She needs the Devil. The ups, the downs and the obstacles kept me on the edge of my seat. The magic kept me interested. And the Devil himself left me wanting more. I can't go into the story too much, you'll just have to read it yourself! Trust me, you will not be disappointed. Lucifer is everything I wanted him to be and more. Just his smirks and innuendo got me hot and bothered. Eden continues to be badass and willing to sacrifice herself to save the world. Overall, I laughed, cried big fat sobbing tears, had to fan myself and breathed a much needed sigh of relief at the end. I have a feeling this isn't the last we'll see of Eden, Lucifer and the Se7en.

Man, I'm torn. I'm so torn on how I feel about this book. Because while reading it I absolutely knew without a doubt how I wanted it to end. But then the ending came and I'm just so... torn. That's the best way to describe how I feel.

I've been so invested in this series since I first read it at the end of 2017. And then when I got to the end of book three, Wicked Ruin, I knew that I was invested. I knew I would hold out hope for these characters during the wait for book four. And while I wasn't totally on board with how this book played out, I also loved it and the ending.

Because like Eden, multiple times, described herself during the course of this book I was torn in two. For the exact same reasons she was. And one half of my heart was strictly for the ending that happened. And the other half of my cold black heart seriously wished for a different ending. It wished for the ending that played out in my mind throughout this whole book. And man, I don't know how to feel. Because one side is overjoyed that what happened happened. But the other side is internally screaming at the top of my lungs that this didn't end the way it waas supposed to.

I don't know... I guess I'm just glad that this series ended with me liking it. Because I was definitely super skeptical about it at the end of Wicked Ruin.

FALLEN REIGN......is everything, is so much more, it's EPIC!!!
EEEPPPP, I'm back in the world of the Se7en Sinners, with Eden, Legion, Lucifer, and all the wickedly fantastical beings and my mind, body, and soul are still buzzing from this phenomenal conclusion to my most favorite PNR series ever!!!
This whole series has had me under a wicked spell right from the beginning, intensifying with each new book, and with this final installment I'm completely captivated, full on entranced to the core!!!

"Inhale. Exhale. And then I shatter into a million tiny flecks of glittering bliss."
^^^^That quote from Eden perfectly describes how I felt throughout this book....it was heart-pounding, breath-taking, nail-biting, tear-inducing, soul-touching, leaving me feeling so shattered yet my pieces fell in a "glittering bliss"!!!! Huh, how can I feel shattered but blissful?....could only be because S.L. Jennings is the MASTER of some crazy magical writing powers... I mean come on, she not only made me love demons, she has me freakin broken for the Devil (Lucifer...SWOON, yeah I've lost it hahaha)!!!!!
I'm so sad to see the end but it was everything....unpredictable, twists and turns, explosive chaos, beauty in the darkest of dark, SINFULLY PERFECT!!!
5 stars, uummm NO....6 stars, nope....7 (SE7EN) STARS for me!!!!!!

S.L. Jennings has slayed this series!

This book picked up right where we left off and I honestly had no idea what the outcome was going to be and I loved every minute of uncertainty. Jennings has such a way with words and will your emotions all over the place while reading. Eden literally had the weight of the world on her shoulders and I loved seeing her mature throughout this series. Legion and Lucifer. My heart is turn. It truly is and I love them both. The Se7en gang will always have a special place in my heart.  I loved seeing my Dark Light Series characters in this series as well! All I can say is I’m happy I listened to Jennings and put the voodoo doll down. All my OG readers will get the reference.

I am so sorry to see this series come to an end! Anyone that knows me knows how picky I am when it comes to paranormal reads and Jennings is one of the few authors that nails it Every. Single. Time. Jennings is hands down one of my favorite paranormal authors and I can only hope that she will bless us with a novella in the future!

Holy... wow!

See what I did there ^^ 😉

It feels like it's been forever since I read a book that made me feel the way this WHOLE SERIES has!

Part of me believes the angels, demons, and the biblical background help with my being drawn to it. Honestly though? The writing pulled me in. I couldn't stop reading!

Legion of Lost Souls. You don't think you can love a demon, but I promise, Legion makes you believe.

Eden, is a BAD A$$ chick! She conquers all. Every time.

Luc... HOW does one end up loving the Devil himself?! I don't know, but I did. By the end of this series, I found myself rooting for Satan. Who'd have guessed that?!?! NOT ME!

This whole series, the witches, warlocks, dark, light, angels, demons, PULLS ME IN! I can't think of a better way to end this series (unless it just never ended and I always get to have more Luc, Legion and Eden, which I'm totally okay with, by the way).

I could go on and on, but then I'd give spoilers and we hate those, so I will stop. Just know, if you love PNR or just paranormal, this book is for you! SO AMAZING!
