Product Description

They're back! The members of the band Heaven Sent are back in the sequel to Heaven Sent: Heaven and Purgatory.

Heaven Sent: Hell

Heaven Sent gets a hell of new keyboardist with a name to match. Hell Witting is an amazing musician and proves to be the answer to a sound that the band was missing. With lavender hair and big violet eyes, he captivates Brent Rose from the start, and not just with his music.

Brent knows better than to get involved with a member of the band. That just invites trouble and the last thing he wants is trouble for Heaven Sent. So he'll just keep the attraction to himself. Doesn't matter anyway. Hell couldn't possibly want him. After all, Brent's not gorgeous and flashy like the other members of the band.

When Hell makes his interest in Brent all too obvious, Brent is unprepared...and unable...to stay away.


Heaven Sent: Faith

Darien's best friends are the other guys in the rock band Heaven Sent. The three-now four-of them are closer than brothers to him and he's happy that they've all found their life mates. He is. He doesn't at all mind that each of those life mates are men. He doesn't.

In fact, that's just it. Maybe there's something to this gay stuff. He's never been particularly interested before, but after a short, failed marriage, he's willing to open himself up to new possibilities. Especially if one of those possibilities is the gorgeous lawyer who handled his divorce, Christopher Faith.

Trouble is, Chris doesn't seem to want to believe that Darien's serious. Well, sure, Darien's never slept with a guy before, but he's allowed to change his mind. Isn't he?

Publisher's Note: This book is a male-male love story and contains homoerotic sex acts that may be offensive to some readers.

Heaven Sent 2 by Jet Mykles
Hell (Heaven Sent 3) by Jet Mykles
Brent is a very talentuous guy, handsome but not beautiful, and not an alpha male. He is happy to lve among his friends and to let them drive his life. He was also the Luc's fuck buddy before push him to Reese, the real love. And he is happy for his friend, but old memories still prevent him to have a real story for himself, memories of girls first, and guys after, who walk across him to reach Luc and Johnnie. He really can't think that someone could love him when he has the change to meet the others.

But then arrives Hell, a cute guy with a cherub face and a demon behaviour. He is short and slim, but has a strong attitude. Even if Brent is greater in body, is Hell who lead their relationship. He doesn't accept a "no" and doesn't want nothing less love. And wants Brent, only for him. And what he wants, he gets.

These are two wonderful characters, who play with the yaoi rule of cute=bottom, tall=top. Hell, believe me, is not a bottom at all, and when he bottoms, he is a pushy bottom! Brent instead is like a real artist, good in his art, his world, but feared by the outside world: he needs someone who drives him and who feels him important and unique.

Faith (Heaven Sent 4) by Jet Mykles
Bingo! The last story (I really hope not) in the Heaven Sent series tells us about Darien. He is an hearthy guy, kind and funny, a real next door boy. He wants make no harm, but he feels pretty alone among all his paired friends. So he suddenly decides to marry. But he puts no heart in the matter and obviously thing goes wrong.

Helping him in dealing the divorce there is Christopher Faith, a good friend of Hell. Chris is openly gay, but he doesn't flaunt it around. He is pretty sure of his own and is a quite and handsome guy. Darien is fascinating. He has ever admited that a guy could be handsome, like Johnnie or Luc, but he has never felt something near sexual for them. But Chris is another matter. Darien wants him and can see that also Chris is attracted... so no harm to noone if they enjoy themself, isn't it?

But when things go further than a sexual fling, it is time for Darien to read really inside himself and for Chris to admit that it is not only sex with Darien. With trust and faith they can build something together.

Darien is really tender character. He has not bad feelings, he is really a good boy. Everyone likes him, and I'm no different. You can't dislike him, it is like hating a puppy or a kitten. He looks at you with big eyes and you are smitten. Like Chris.

Chris is a surprise. Giving that Darien is a straight guy that for the first time approaches a man, you expect him to be attracted by a cute and submissive type. Instead Chris is like an old strong oak tree: steady and protective. He can meld with the background but he is impressive. And has a firm hand.

Jet Mykles' stories are really simple and enjoyble but they hook you completely: you can't close the book unless you have finished it. Even if you know that you will find you happily ever after, you have to reach it and enjoy it in a rush and then immediately turn back to reread it!

But then arrives Hell, a cute guy with a cherub face and a demon behaviour. He is short and slim, but has a strong attitude. Even if Brent is greater in body, is Hell who lead their relationship. He doesn't accept a "no" and doesn't want nothing less love. And wants Brent, only for him. And what he wants, he gets.

Hot stories, but uneven storytelling
Brent is the musical leader of the band, Heaven Sent, but in all other aspects of his life he feels like a tag-along loser. Like Reese in Heaven Sent 1, he has an inferiority complex. His lack of confidence is exacerbated by his affair with bandmate Luc, who uses him as a substitute for Reese prior to their consummated romance in Heaven Sent 1. Insecure and fearful of being hurt, he resists the tug he feels toward their newest band mate, a German keyboardist named "Hell". (The names in these books are giggle-worthy, Johnnie Heaven, Hell... oh, just stop, Ms. Mykles with the heavy symbolism.) In any case, Hell is a tiny, lavendar-died "imp" of a man who nonetheless won't take no for an answer from Brent. Complications due to Brent's insecurity and Hell's jealousy over Brent and Luc's past provide the tension in this romance. The scene of Hell and Brent's first sexual encounter is one of the best descriptions of the needs of a bottom I've read.

I was irritated by the inconclusive ending, which seemed designed to set the author up for another book. I also have to admit to a personal bias against taking this lavendar-dyed "imp" seriously as an aggressive top of a sexual partner. Moreover, who in this day and age describes an adult man as an "imp"? The language was implausible.

The weakest of the four stories in the Heaven Sent series is without a doubt the fourth entry, Darien's story. I simply did not buy that a previously-heterosexual guy would fall first into a marriage, then into a gay romance with so little introspection. Perhaps it's realistic in a way, but it's not terribly interesting. Nor did I have much success in buying the domineering nature of his partner, Chris Faith (again, with the names...). Both characters were drawn too lightly and the conflict was not strong enough to be realistic.

The best part of these stories for me were the erotic sexual scenes, catching up with the couples from Heaven Sent 1, and seeing the events of Heaven Sent 1 from another perspective.

Candy coated, bittersweet
I read the e-book versions of Hell and Faith. Which I am hoping are the same as paperback. Some reviewers are over investing in the realism of what the HS boys are about I think. It took me a YEAR or more to get from Book 2 to 3 and 4 and I still felt the characters entertained and emotionally moved me where they were supposed to. I think if you get Jet's idea of what Heaven Sent is meant to be, little mistakes and character flaws will roll down your back like a bead of sweat [hehe]. Complete reviews for Hell and Faith below:

HELL

This was perhaps my second favorite Heaven Sent book. The character of Brent really had a lot to deal with and I love reading about that. Hell was a great addition to Heaven Sent and to what Brent was about. I liked the fact that Heller Witting was German. You don't see a lot of German characters in romances [at least I don't:]. The descriptive of puple hair and violet eyes kept throwing me off but it was something new and different. Unexpected.

What I was expecting [the inevitable romance break-up to make-up:] really struck me hard. I nearly was in tears. The relationship was slowly built up before any sex took place. It's amazing how connected you become to a character when that happens. The infatuation on Hell's part was so adorable. Brent's subsequent denial/depression was well written and accurate. It was not just a few words and then they were back together. It was really believeable that Brent was suffering.

Brent is very shy. To the point of being panicked at the sight of large crowds of fans. Hiding behind his shades helps a bit. Heller "Hell" Witting is a force of nature. Almost feminine with his diminuative features and small stature.


Jet has not disappointed me with this series. The tone changes with every book. I don't know what to expect when the focus is on one particular character. They all are unique and overall are edible enough to read over and over again.

FAITH

To have finished Hell and Faith within hours of each other, wow. What's that say for ease of reading, or like of material. Whatever the case I am so crushing hard for the HS boys. I love how they love each other. There is no confusion [for the most part:] about their feelings for men. I like a good, heavy emotional tug but not every time I read romance.

The fusion of lightheartedness, erotic sex, and gay exceptance really makes this work of fiction a true work of art. I love the idea of all the band members being gay and yet it doesn't affect thier fan base. It works for them. I love how everything always works out and it's fairly believable.

Ok so Darien [drummer:] is like the cheerleader of the group. Not like go team but really animated and talkitive. Chris Faith is a British friend of Hell's who is also a lawyer and helps Darien with his legal issues. Darien, of course, has flirted with men and leads the press into believing he may be bi, but he's never wanted to actually sleep with a guy. Until Chris. And, oh goodness I loved reading their intial pre-love scene. How Darien was reacting to Chris. Darien being sure of Chris's sexual preference for men but unsure if Chris liked him. He was beyond dangling the carrot in front of Chris until Chris finally caved.

Their eventual break-up wasn't as heart wrenching as Brent and Hell's. Darien and Chris's relationship was not as established before they were intimate. So I was not not too torn when that happened. The build-up always works better for me but depending on the character I can go with casual. Overall this was another great addition to the Heaven Sent series.

I rarely get the chance to do this [read a series back to back:], but I am out of town and only have my e-books keeping me company. Up next BOOK 5: Genesis
