My Review: 5/5 Stars 

First off, so glad I found this book early. I couldn't believe my luck. And it was of course amazing. Titus is a character I loved, despite only seeing him here and there throughout the series. But every encounter you see him, you can't help but love the super loud and friendly, warrior archangel of Africa. And to get his own book? I was super excited. And not only that, but the fact that this book is around Sharine aka the Hummingbird!! Who is another character I adore. And again, you may only see glimpses of her here and there throughout the series, but each moment you can't help but love her. Especially when she really "wakes up" in Archangel's War. But when I look at these two characters, I could not imagine how they would fit together. Truly, total opposites. But that thought comes to an end the moment you pick up Archangel's Sun. Sharine has truly woken up from hiding in her kaleidoscope mind. And to quote her, "doesn't give a shit." She is tired of being broken and is ready to find herself once more. To make her son, Illium, proud. And when she is asked to join Titus in his battle against the reborn, she doesn't hesitate to accept, knowing it is time for her to help others in a new way and find out what she is truly capable. And let me tell you Titus, and the rest of the world, are not ready for Sharine. They expect the quiet and gentle Hummingbird. And Titus is thrown for quite a loop when she is quite the opposite (for the most part). First off, the banter between Titus and Sharine is legendary and the most hilarious thing ever. Titus is put in his place more often than not and ends up with an almost permanent scowl. But he is intrigued by Sharine. He gets to know exactly who she is and it is someone that he can't help fall for, despite what he knew about the Hummingbird. And Sharine is surprised in turn. Titus has a bigger heart than she realized and despite the fact she wanted to be tied to no one, she finds her heart has other plans. And it is a beautiful journey for the two of them to get there. I loved reading how their non-existence relationship turned to a sense of respect and awe. Into genuine friendship and then in to a love that rivals those that we have come to see in this series. They are excellent together and this story was so fun to read. On top of them finding love with one another, they both are charged with ending the reborn and the special surprise that the Archangel of Disease left behind for them. But together, they become quite a team and the no longer existing archangel never stood a chance. Loved this book. Definitely a favorite from this amazing series and I can't wait for more!
