Two years ago, Jandra Maxwell walked away from the secret Fairlight Society and started a new life in a quiet Texas town. When her former Ward, the dark angel Zeph, seeks her out and begs for her help, Jandra faces an impossible choice. She knows he can only offer her heartache, but she can’t turn her back on the only man she’s ever loved.Zeph teeters on the brink of madness, pummeled by emotions his angelic blood once rendered him incapable of feeling. Driven to protect Jandra from a threat he can only glimpse in nightmares, he refuses to leave her side. As they explore the mystery of his recurring dreams, they discover the Fairlight Society has been keeping a terrible secret – one they’ll kill to protect.
Fighting for her life isn’t so easy when Jandra’s also fighting her heart. Her inexorable attraction to Zeph may save them...or damn them both.

loved this book. It is exciting, dark, and yet hopeful. I immediately snatched up "Ugly Like Me" and I am waiting for the next book. All I can say is, MORE MORE MORE!!

I'm actually struggling with what to say here.
Its taken me a few days to finish reading this, but that has more to do with my family life rather than the readability of the book.
Nia Shay is a new to me author, this is the first time i have read anything she has written and now that i have i can honestly say i will be reading more of her work. In fact the next book i read will be her Ugly Like Me.
From the moment I started reading I was hooked. Jade and Zeph's relationship was awesome, I loved that she beat the cr@p out of him when he first showed up even though it was painfully clear that she still loved him, and their back story was revealed gradually rather than being dumped on you all in one hit which would have been too much to deal with.
I really liked Brax and I really hope he shows up in later books, even if I'm not sure whether he his a 'good guy' or 'bad guy'.
As paranormal romances featuring Dark Angels/Fallen Angels go this is rather superb and is a definite must read.

Dark Angel's Ward is the rare novel that begs for both prequel and sequel treatment. From the first chapter, the reader is plunged into the midst of an ongoing paranormal conflict. The effect is an exciting immersion into the dark and gorgeous world of Shay's angels and demons, but it's also somewhat dizzying in the early pages of the book (don't worry--all confusion is resolved as the story unfolds!). Strange, as well, is the author's take on the paranormal romance genre; rather than walk the line between fantasy and erotica, Shay vascilates wholly between the two, and the resulting story is much steamier than standard fantasy fare. The supporting characters are a bit two-dimensional, but the protagonist couple have enough chemistry to keep the reader engaged and wanting more. Dark Angel's Ward would make an excellent foundation for a successful series.
