“Once again, L.J. Shen has blown me away with a hauntingly beautiful, angst-driven, emotionally charged romance that will stay with me long after the last page. A must read for 2020.”

—Siobhan Davis, USA Today bestselling author

Stephanie’s 5 Blush Review

***After much thought, I feel obligated to give a trigger warning. If you have any triggers at all then this book is not for you. LJ Shen has many other amazing books to choose from. Although I truly feel that the trigger was handled with careful and precise words.***

A fellow intern. A prodigal sculptor. A bloody genius.

LJ Shen once again floored me with a beautifully written story that is haunting, heartbreaking and poetic. Angry God will take you on the darkest journey that has yet to be told in the All Saints High series. This is Vaughn’s story. He is known for many things. An outrageously talented artist but also a very angry one. Fury often pours out of him. It is no secret that there is a reason why Vaughn is so angry. He exhibits so much underlying emotion and pent up anger.

There was no mistaking the energy Vaughn Spencer brought into a room, because it sucked up everything else like a Hoover.

Lenora Astalis aka Lenny is also an artist. She has a small history with Vaughn. Their story is told between past and present. Both have had tragedies in their lives, and are dealing with extremely emotional issues. Their lives weave together, not necessarily by choice.

Nothing scared me anymore. Not even an angry god.

The buildup is a slow and steady climb. As the story progresses, you think that you have an idea of what happened to Vaughn. But the culmination, the revelation, slams into you like a tsunami destroying every bit of your heart and sucking it out to sea.

What a story! Angry God is book #3 of the All Saints High series. A spinoff or second generation of the Sinners of Saint series. Each of the three books in the series is completely different. It can absolutely be read without first reading any of the Sinners of Saints – Vicious, Defy, Ruckus, Scandalous or Bane.

There are not many cameos in Angry God. But the epilogue was amazing! I don’t want it to end! I want to know what happens next! And thank you once again to paying homage to The Smiths ~ Last Night I Dreamt That Somebody Loved Me.

No one could take my pain away. No one.

 

Vaughn Spencer.

They call him an angry god.

To me, he is nothing but a heartless prince.

His parents rule this town, its police, every citizen and boutique on Main Street.

All I own is a nice, juicy grudge against him for that time he almost killed me.

Between hooking up with a different girl every weekend, breaking hearts, noses and rules, Vaughn also finds the time to bully little ole’ me.

I fight back, tooth and nail, never expecting him to chase me across the ocean after we graduate high school.

But here he is, living with me in a dark, looming castle on the outskirts of London.

A fellow intern. A prodigal sculptor. A bloody genius.

They say this place is haunted, and it is.

Carlisle Castle hides two of our most awful secrets.

Vaughn thinks he can kill the ghosts of his past, but what he doesn’t know? It’s my heart he’s slaying.

Angry God is a stand-alone, DARK High School Romance. It deals with sensitive subjects some may find triggering.

Excerpt

“How good are you at keeping secrets, Lenora Astalis?” His voice wrapped around my neck like a noose.

I wanted to cough. I needed to cough. He terrified me. I hated him with the heat and passion of a thousand blazing suns. He made me feel like a scaredy cat and a snitch.

“Oh, yes. If you’re coward enough to pretend you’re asleep, you’re good enough to keep a secret. That’s the thing about you, Astalis. I can smash you into dust and watch your grains dance at my feet. My little circus monkey.”

I might’ve hated Vaughn, but I hated myself more for not standing up to him. For not opening my eyes and spitting in his face. Clawing his unnaturally blue eyes out. Taunting him back for all the times he’d taunted all of us at Carlisle Prep.

“By the way, your eyelids are moving,” he said drily, chuckling.

He straightened up, his finger making a brief stop at the base of my spine. He snapped his fingers, making a breaking sound, and I nearly jumped out of my skin, letting out a gasp. I squeezed my eyes tighter, still pretending to sleep.

He laughed.

The bastard laughed.

Was he sparing me for the time being? Was he going to check in on me from now on? Retaliate if I opened my mouth? He was so unpredictable. I wasn’t sure what my life would look like in the morning.
