I picked this up after seeing it in my inbox of recommended reads. While I do appreciate the odd paranormal romance, this was more silly than romance. Way too many plot holes and inconsistencies even for a romance fluff piece. After a thousand years, why would the love interest still be talking like a Viking gone a roaming. I don't get the whole "sin scent" of someone Thinking of committing a sin vs actual mortal sin. The bad guys are sort of a joke. If you are going to make political or religious commentary in a paranormal romance either make sure it's accurate, or at least not offensive. I didn't like it, but I have read worse. However I will not be reading this again or buying more of this series.

Kiss of Pride A Deadly Angels Book Sandra Hill 9780062064615 Books Reviews

This book is ridiculous. The speech and the thought are just awful (and I'm not even talking about the Viking speak!). Alex (a modern woman) makes me weep on behalf of females. Vikar gets a little more leeway. But only a little. He's lived for over a thousand years, and even though there was time travel involved in that, I would expect some modernization, but he still thinks and acts like a Viking. Fine. I can deal with that.

And yet...

It was kind of fun. If you're in the right mood for it. Otherwise you'll probably be annoyed by it.

Will I be reading the rest of the books in the series? Yeah.
This is the first of the DEADLY ANGELS books. It is about Vikar, a vangel (vampire/angel) who, along with his brothers, fight demons from hell, and Alex, a journalist sent to do a story about him.

I thought that the story was okay, but I found Alex to be a little annoying at times and I really didn't care for Vikar. He was too domineering. Also, I really had a problem with the fact that he would force Alex to do things she didn't want to do even if he thought it was for her own good. Those situations really put me off and ruin a book for me.

I did like the secondary characters though, so I will give the second book a shot. Hopefully the H/H will be more tolerable.
I wanted love this series because Vikings and vampires, great. But I struggled with the writing. The torture sense with Jasper were gratuitous both for the reader and the narrative. Jasper and his minions are a side issue that is very unresolved. This was the frustrating part. The lack of connection between the parts. I found the ending too trite.
Sandra Hill writes about Vikings. Usually historical romances. So when she chose to write a PNR it had to have Vikings right?

Kiss of Pride tells the story of Vikar Sigurdsson. He and his brothers are being punished as they've each been singularly attached to one of the seven deadly sins. For Vikar it is pride. As punishment they've been turned into vangels (vampire/angels) to do good and to fight Lucifer's vampires (lucipires) whose goal was to collect the souls of sinners before they had a change to repent.
Alexandra Kelly is a reporter who has lost her faith. Her estranged husband and her daughter were killed by cartel mobsters and she is angry. She is considering mortal revenge against those that killed her daughter which makes her ripe for reaping by the lucipires. Archangel Michael thinks she can be saved and arranges for her to meet Vikar.

I think this series is very ambitious and if anyone can pull it off Ms. Hill can. I enjoyed the book but as with every first book in a series there is a lot of world building which in this case is so convoluted as to be distracting. I had the same problem with Gena Showalters Lords of the Underworld series but came to love them all. I will definitely be checking out the next installment.
Another rollicking chapter to the continuing saga of Vampire Angels created by the fertile mind of Sandra Hill to delight and entertain her many followers. Each condemned to eternal damnation because of their thorough corruption by one of the seven deadly sins, these Viking brothers are given one last chance by God, and aided by the Archangel Mchael, to redeem their souls from Hell. They are returned to Earth as Vampire Angels to fight the minions of Satan or Lucifer known as Lucipyres. Only by destroying Satan's minions and freeing the innocents of Earth from their corrupt influence will the brothers gain their eternal freedom from Hell. However, the brothers are not free from sin's temptation themselves and often fall prey to their own "deadly" sin and find themselves punished with serving a much longer term than prior to their regression!! Another Sandra Hill comic relief book that will delight your funny bone as well as your romantic senses. I can highly recommend all the books in this series for a great reading experience!!
As always Sandra Hill delivers in her books especially when it comes to the VIKs. I laughed, I cried, I got mad, I sighed....well, I went through the gamut of emotions with this book. I cheered for Vikar and Alex. Vicar whose sign is pride is brought down a peg or two from the willful and independent Alex who has traveled to Transylvania, PA for what she believes to be an interview with Lord Vikar. Little does she when she gets to the "castle" that her life will change, as well as her heart. Alex had suffered tragedy prior to coming to Transylvania and in the midst of her suffering she contemplates committing a sin and possibly losing her soulless. It us up to Vikar, as a Vangel to save her soul, and perhaps her heart in the process.
There were a lot of points in this story that left me conflicted. I didn't feel like the premise of Viking vampire angels was particularly well explained. There is an explanation, but I was never truly able to suspend my disbelief enough to fully buy into the concept. It is different from any other paranormal fiction that I've read. As far as the romance aspect of the story, this is one of the best written love stories that I've had the pleasure of reading. I arrived at my rating of 4 stars as an average. As a romance novel, I would give it 5 stars. As for the paranormal aspect, I would award 3 stars. So, overall, I split the difference and give it 4 stars. I enjoyed it and considered it worth the $0.99 I paid for it. I am not; however, sure that I'm willing to pay the much increased price to continue reading the series.
