10 Angel Romance Books For Fantasy Reader

The word angel comes from the Greek word. It means messenger, which also matches the Hebrew word Malaak. They can bring messages to us from a universal source because they’re closer to that vibration. According to the religious view, Angels are spiritual beings. They are made of pure light or pure energy, and they are the intermediate energy between God herself and humankind.

As a book lover, I have always been drawn to stories that transport me to another world where love and magic intertwine. One genre that has captivated my imagination is angel romance. These enchanting tales depict celestial beings falling in love with humans, creating a unique blend of fantasy and romance. They offer us a chance to escape from reality and immerse ourselves in a world where love transcends boundaries, even between heaven and earth. The protagonists’ celestial nature adds mystique and magic to the romance, creating a captivating reading experience.

One of the main reasons why angel romance novels are so appealing is their ability to explore the theme of forbidden love. Angels, with their heavenly nature, are portrayed as not meant to fall in love with humans. This forbidden aspect adds tension and excitement to the story as readers eagerly follow the star-crossed lovers’ journey, hoping for a happy ending despite the odds stacked against them.

In addition to the forbidden love theme, angel romance explores deeper philosophical questions about the nature of love and the human condition. These stories show love as a transformative force capable of healing wounds and bringing out the best in people. By showcasing the power of love through angelic characters, these novels remind us of the potential for love to change lives and bring about personal growth.

2. Angels’ Blood (Guild Hunter)

This is the first book in the Guild Hunter series. The two main characters in the book are Raphael, who is an Archangel, and Elena, who is a Guild Hunter. You can see both sides of the story, so you get to see Raphael’s point of view instead of one character. Raphael is a powerful being in New York. He has a tower in New York; everyone fears him, and a group of seven follows him. One of them is Dmitri.

Dmitri is a vampire, and he does everything that Raphael says, but he also cares for Raphael and has his best interests at heart. So you see that in the fold in the book and how he teases Elena. But you also see how he cares for Rafale’s feelings towards Elena. Elena is very powerful in herself as a mortal. She was born a vampire hunter, so she was taken in by the Guild at a young age. Here, she was taught everything she needed to know.

Then, she hunts vampires and returns them to their superiors for good money. But then she gets a letter from the high Archangel Raphael to do a job for him one day. She sets out on this journey with Raphael to hunt down who he needs. This journey is difficult for her because he wants to hunt an Archangel called Europe, and he’s gone to the wrong side, where many archangels dread going. But together, you see their bond grow, and they find Europe. The romance between them blossoms in a way. But it’s difficult for them both.

3. Angel Fall

This is a post-apocalyptic angel romance book, so the world’s end has come. Angels have come to Earth, and there’s an apocalypse. Humans are killing each other for the remainder of the food. Our main character’s name is Penryn. She has a schizophrenic mother and a paraplegic sister. She’s trying to keep them alive.

So Penryn constantly hunts for food and on one of their excursions to look for food. They come across a fight of angels. One of the angels gets attacked. He gets his wings ripped out, and in the process, Penryn’s little sister is also taken away. So Penryn decides to join forces with this fallen angel to save her sister; in the process, he can regain his wings. The story goes on from there.

This book gives it more of a sci-fi twist. It is taking place in our modern world. The angels have only been here for a little over a month, and the world has already descended into chaos when they are here. There is a lot of messing with science, even from the angels. The take on the angels, folklore, and even the biblical aspects touched upon were innovative.

4. Unearthly

This is the first book in the Unearthly trilogy. The second one is Hallowed, and then the third one is Boundless. So this series tells the story of Clara Gardner, a part angel. She is given this purpose, which is the task and life she was put on this earth to do. It’s the story of her trying to fulfill her purpose and working towards it.

The romance part is good, but the love triangle story is predictable and usual. The characters were pretty good, but I wasn’t thrilled by it. The second one went a little bit downhill. It also took an unexpected turn, but that one was normal. Overall, I would say that these books are cliche. They’re enjoyable. But they’re not the books for you if you want something epic and completely different.

6. Inescapable (The Premonition)

Inescapable is a mysterious book with lots of twists and turns in it. Amy Bartol played out the plotline of this book greatly. The main character is Evie Claremont, who’s a half-angel. She seemed a little kiddish and vulnerable and did not know what to do. So, her character often switches between two different personas in this book. She started as one of the severe downfalls, and Russel was in his accent.

Russel is from the South, so he has a very southern drawl. To emphasize his southern accent, Amy wrote how we would speak the words on the page. There were many abbreviated words that I found hard to read, and it made me not like the character of Russel. There was also a very prominent love triangle in the story, which was very good.

7. Daughter of Smoke & Bone

Plot characters, a world-building magic system, and a small discussion at the end can break this book down. The story follows Karou, who is a super-aggressive teenager. She has blue hair tattoos, and she’s living in Prague. Here, she works for the Chimaeras. Chimaeras are the demons in this story, and she goes on missions with her father figure to collect teeth by granting different wishes. There’s a whole currency system of wishes related to the magic system.

So, one day, Karou bumps into an angel, the enemy of the Chimaera. His name is Akiva. They build this relationship, and it goes from there. It is a Romeo and Juliet retelling, which was such a fun read. This book focuses a lot on the Chimaera and all of their mythology. The world-building in this book is phenomenal, and I enjoyed it so much.

8. Personal Demons

The book is about Frannie, who is in high school, and Gabriel and Lucifer. Gabriel and Lucifer are fighting to tag Frannie’s soul for heaven. So that’s the premise of the book. When you enter the book, there’s a love triangle because she’s attracted to Lucifer. Then she’s attracted to Gabriel but for two different reasons.

This book is pretty fast-paced, and it’s a three-part series. If you are a highly religious person, I would not suggest this book because you might find every little thing wrong with it. The author glamorized Lucifer in any way because she made Lucifer a very popular hero. But he’s a demon from a religious point of view.
