Review:

Angelika Leanne by M.A. Abraham is the 3^rd book in her Daughters of the Valley series.  Angelika, our heroine, moved out of the valley through the portal when she was 16 years old, feeling neglected by her family and issues with her sister.    She stays with her godmother, Tyndal and becomes a major success in creating bakeries. 

Both Rafe and Ravel decide they need Angelika to return home, where her abilities are required, as she reaches her powerful  destiny.  Rafe will realize quickly that Ravel is the one who will mate with Angelika, as their bond is apparent.  Though she feels their attraction, she wants nothing to do with Ravel, and spends most of her time at her bakeries.  Ravel, despite his determination to win Angelika, will have his hands full, even to the point of giving up.

It was nice to see the family and previous heroes return (Teryka, Merika, Riven, Tyrus, etc)  as they try to help Ravel and Tyndal to bring Angelika back.  In the last book, when Teryka (Angelika’s mother) was the heroine, she worked for an evil film producer, and eventually escaped back home to the Valley. It is this same producer who wants to find the portal, hoping to gain immortality.  He is a very powerful and evil man, who will stop at nothing to get his way.  He hires people to kidnap Angelika, and the last half of the book becomes a bit more exciting, though the shenanigans of the wives against their husbands was fun.

What follows is a wonderful fun and exciting story, with a nice romance of two people determined to fight their destiny.  I really enjoyed seeing all the wonderful characters Abraham has given us, as well as Ravel and Angelika.  This is a story that you need to read and enjoy, so giving too much information would ruin it.  M.A. Abraham once again gives us a sweet lighthearted story line, and dangerous excitement.  I suggest you read Angelika Leanne.  It was a fun read.
