Review: Angel's Halo by Terri Anne Browning

Author: Terri Anne Browning
Publication date: February 2014

A scary, powerful, crazy family.
It was also like its own society. There are rules, just as there are in every family, every society. But only breaking one of their rules will leave you in a broken, blood pile on the floor... No one touches Raven Hannigan.
Raven
I was the MC’s only weakness. Or so my father use to tell me as I was growing up. Mad Max Hannigan was once Angel’s Halos’ president. He made the rules and everyone was expected to follow them or come face to fist with the enforcer…
I have spent my life in the middle of the MC. I knew the rules—the penalties for breaking those rules. So I knew what would happen to him if I let him break the golden rule… But I loved him, like I have never loved anyone or anything before. I thought my love would protect him.
Of course it hadn’t. When our secret was discovered he was beaten.
So I shouldn’t blame him for leaving me…
Bash
As the enforcer I knew the consequences. Knew exactly what was in store for me when Raven’s family found out that I had dared to break my MC’s unforgivable rule. I loved her, so it didn’t matter to me. When her oldest brother delivered my punishment I didn’t scream. Didn’t groan. I took it like the man my MC had made me, and would have done it over and over again if that was what it took to be able to call Raven Hannigan mine.
But then my past reared its ugly head and I had a choice to make. One that I have only lived to regret.
Taking on the job as Angel’s Halos’ new president was my second chance. But... would my secrets destroy everything Raven and I once had.

I picked this up, because I had started reading Salvation, also by this author.  I realized that the story is the next generation of adults in this MC world.  I felt like I was missing context on some of the main female character's relatives.  So, here we are at the beginning with Angel's Halo.  Angel's Halo is the first book about the Angel's Halo Motorcycle Club involving the Raven and Bash.  Raven is the lone female in the Hannigan family.  Her brother's are the upper leadership of the MC.  The number one rule is nobody touches Raven.  Bash is back after leaving for a year breaking Raven's heart in the process.  

I read this book in under three hours.  I found I couldn't put it down.  All of the characters were compelling and I wanted to know more about them.  I really enjoyed their relationships.   Raven and Bash's story is raw and emotional and I loved every minute of it.   The book also has other characters' points of view.  I have begun reading the next book, Entangled, and that has the same type of format.  It's almost like reading a soap opera involving a motorcycle club.  I highly recommend this one if you missed it.
