About the Book
New York Times bestselling author Sandra Hill continues her sexy Deadly Angels series, as a Viking vangel’s otherworldly mission pairs him with a beautiful chef who whets his thousand-year-old appetite . . .
Once guilty of the deadly sin of gluttony, thousand-year-old Viking vampire angel Cnut Sigurdsson is now a lean, mean, vampire-devil fighting machine. His new side-job? No biggie: just ridding the world of a threat called ISIS while keeping the evil Lucipires (demon vampires) at bay. So when chef Andrea Stewart hires him to rescue her sister from a cult recruiting terrorists at a Montana dude ranch, vangel turns cowboy. Yeehaw!
The too-tempting mortal insists on accompanying him, surprising Cnut with her bravery at every turn. But with terrorists stalking the ranch in demonoid form, Cnut tele-transports Andrea and himself out of danger-accidentally into the 10th Century Norselands. Suddenly, they have to find their way back to the future to save her family and the world . . . and to satisfy their insatiable attraction.
My Review:
The Angel Wore Fangs is the seventh book in author Sandra Hill’s Deadly Angels series and sadly the first in the series I’ve read. I say sadly because this book was simply fantastic and I must read the rest of the books!
I adored the interesting take on Viking angels and how Cnut came to be and how he ended up in his current station in life. I loved that even though he was a somewhat reformed glutton, he still loved food and all things delicious. His internal debates when it came to treats and overindulging was adorable at times. Who would think a big bad Viking could be adorable, right? Well, Cnut had more than a few adorable moments in this book. He is a total bad ass but was funny and sweet more times than I can count and I loved that about him. He was especially entertaining when it came to Amanda and his attraction to her. He knows he needs to stay away but it proves to be an uphill battle. Amanda is an equally amazing character with a quick wit, ability to go with the flow (well, after freaking out when necessary), and an admirable determination to help her sister. Their banter was always playful and then, when the undercurrents of attraction get stronger and stronger, it becomes so much hotter.
The mess these two find themselves in was quite a pickle. Amanda is searching for her sister and she had no idea it involves otherworldly beings, evil minions, time travel, Viking angels and ISIS (yep, ISIS!). Poor Amanda was quite surprised to say the least! Luckily she’s got Cnut by her side and he proves to be exactly the man she needed.
I also have to give a shout out to Ms. Hill’s for all of the Pennsylvania settings and references! I currently live in the Philadelphia suburbs and grew up in the Poconos so it was really awesome to read about places I knew 🙂
Ms. Hill’s take on the paranormal is refreshing and exciting and as soon as I finish typing this review you can bet I’ll be headed over to pick up the rest of this series.

—RT Book Reviews on The Angel Wore Fangs
“An awesome…series! Kept me up late into the night reading. Looking forward to the next installment.” — New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands
“Hill has written another winner featuring her Viking vampire angels. In her fourth in the passion-driven Deadly Angels series, two of the most unlikely characters, Mordr and Miranda, are thrown together and the result is laugh-out-loud humor and unrivaled sex appeal.”
—Romantic Times Book Reviews on Kiss of Wrath
“With her clever dialogue, often bawdy situations, and great cast of characters, including a warrior woman, a proverb-spouting wise man/healer from the East, and a saucy cook, Hill has created another wickedly wonderful story.” —Booklist (starred review) on Kiss of Wrath
“The third book in Sandra Hill’s Deadly Angels series, Kiss of Temptation, comes out Tuesday. Along with it comes the temptation to play hooky that day so I can hang out with Ivak, who’s guilty of the sin of lust. Aren’t we all, when it comes to Sandra Hill’s books?”
— USA Today on Kiss of Temptation
“Thanks for the laughs and the heartfelt emotions, Ms. Hill. I loved this one and am looking forward to the next book in this exciting series.” —The Romance Reviews on Kiss of Temptation
Earthy, laugh-out-loud hilarious, and lusty, this tenth-century revel takes readers back to a much-less-refined time and is just plain fun. Hill’s (Viking Heat) Viking series are legendary; her fans are sure to enjoy this latest addition.” —Library Journal on Kiss of Surrender
“Sixth in the Deadly Angels series, Even Vampires Get the Blues is entertaining, solid and consistent in its storytelling. Fans of the Vampire Viking Angels series will be pleased.”
