From the Back Cover

"The first in a series, Angles is a fun romance, full of chemistry. It is an enticing read leaving the reader with a yearn for more." - IndieReader
When every relationship has an angle, how can you tell which side is up?"My breath catches. There they are-the eyes I've been searching for. A man, a gorgeous man, in a perfectly tailored suit is staring at me. It's no mistake. Now that I see him, I know his eyes are the source of this feeling I've been having.There are worse people to have stare at you. He might be a little older, but he's very attractive. He wears his dark brown hair slicked and styled up and back. It looks soft enough to run my fingers through and short enough to create a little edge to it. His blackish gray suit blends in with his olive, tan skin. Every part of him is dark and smoky, except his eyes. His turquoise-blue eyes are so bright; they're like headlights shining at me. A lighthouse warning me not to come too close or my boat will crash." - Chapter 2

About the Author

Erin Lockwood grew up in Castro Valley, California and attended the University of Oregon, where she graduated in 2003 with a degree in journalism. From there she moved to Denver and spent the next seven years searching for the love of her life and building the family of her dreams.

It wasn't long until, with children starting preschool and more time on her hands, Erin refocused on her career, beginning with a successful entry into the world of residential real estate as a Realtor. Free time was spent reading book after book (and binge-watching the subsequent films) in the New Adult genre. Feeling hopelessly in love with her husband, she wrote him a short story leading up to their fifth wedding anniversary. That's when she discovered her tireless passion to share her experience of falling in love through fictional characters. That story evolved into the first novel in the Angles trilogy.

Erin still lives in Denver, Colorado with her husband, Phil, and their three children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Fun!

I'll start by saying that I am generally not a fan of this genre and I'm sorry to admit, have always undervalued it. As time goes on, though, I am finding that a healthy dose of exciting, heartfelt, escapist chick lit can be an absolutely wonderful addition to ones literary diet. And seriously, Erin Lockwood's work is singlehandedly responsible for this shift in me.

I devoured this book in one sitting. I loved how readable and engaging the narrative was. The pacing was ON POINT and Lockwood maintained a tone that was legitimately compelling while still being a whole lot of fun to read.

As the story develops we get characterization and perspective that I think are perfectly executed. As a reader you're given just enough insight into the characters personalities and perceptions to keep you totally invested in them without feeling mentally daunting or unnecessarily dense.

When I sit down to read a novel like this I'm hoping to get away for a bit. I'm not looking to confront the terrifying reality of the human condition...or ANYTHING like that.

I want my mood lifted. I want out of my reading slump. I want something that feels a bit like listening to a story from a girlfriend. I want the characters and plot lines to feel just plausible enough without being bogged down by esoteric language or complicated thematic elements. I want to be thrilled without being stressed out. I want a world to jump into to escape my day-to-day stressors. And Angles totally delivers on ALL of those fronts. It's perfect in this sense. Just perfect.

Do yourself a favor and give this book a try. You will find your heart racing while you eagerly turn pages, and hours will slip by unnoticed. When you return to reality you will feel refreshed and excited for the sequel.

Good good good!

5.0 out of 5 stars If I had to come up with a real gripe...
Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2016

I truly loved this book! I've already read it multiple times and the first time was in a single stretch. The characters are so well developed that you'd swear they were real people. Cara Lee's personality flaws are so opaque that it's hard to believe a fictional character can stir so many emotions in you. It's refreshing to read a compelling romance story that doesn't need S&M or vampires (even though I enjoy some of those stories, too). If I had to come up with a real gripe, it would be that I wish all 3 books in the series were already available so that I could read them back to back. You can tell that the story is just ramping up by the end of book I.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good description but flat characters
Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2017
I wanted to like this book as Erin did a great job describing some things. Her descriptions of rooms made me feel like I was there, but the main character is so flawed that I found her unlikeable. Sam is not described in enough depth for me to care about him. He comes across as demanding and pushy. I've been told this is the first book and the characters will do more as the series goes on, but for me, I wanted a little more in this book to make me want to keep reading the series.

4.0 out of 5 stars A fine line – A review of the novel ‘Angels’
Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2016
“A friend is someone who knows all about you and still loves you.” - Elbert Hubbard

Author Erin Lockwood’s novel ‘Angels: A love story’ introduces a close set of characters. This story is as old as life itself. When two people who are meant to be together – a fact that they both know, can’t still get together, what happens? Drama!

Light, playful and yet heart wrenching at times – this is a novel for all the true romantics.

Cara and Sam are destined for each other, we know it the first time we meet them, and everyone else seems to know it as well. But life constantly interrupts and prevents them from taking the next step.

It doesn’t help at all that Cara is in a codependent platonic relationship with Theo. Cara is forever the damsel in distress and Theo is the enabler who thrives on being needed all the time. When Sam enters the scene, it disrupts the equation between the two. But destiny is a funny thing, and by the time fate is done with these characters their lives will never be the same again.

This seems to be Erin Lockwood’s first venture into YA, and by all accounts this is a sensational debut! Caralee Lee (roll your eyes now!) is a young woman who like countless others is struggling to stay afloat in a weak economy. She lives the independent life and is constantly juggling her work, relationship and friendships. She is also anxiety prone; possibly brought on by a traumatic event she witnessed, and she is in a borderline unhealthy relationship with a male friend with whom she faced the traumatic event. Needless to say, this leaves room for all sorts of narrative possibilities and the author has taken an interesting run with this.

This isn’t your typical modern YA novel, although in the beginning it might give off that seen before-heard before kind of vibe. The more we read and the more we learn about Cara and Theo, you will realize that they are in many ways flawed characters and not some goody two-shoes kind. It is this initial phase that one has to get through patiently to enjoy the rest of the novel. This is the only part in the novel that may appear a bit dull, but soon after especially with the introduction of the character of Sam, everything changes. And it is fun to see our duo come out of their shell and even acknowledge, albeit reluctantly that what they are doing isn’t healthy.

The author has managed to regale the reader by placing many thought-provoking situations in her book. It is reflective in many ways; we need to think why we’ve become so defensive and scared in our life. Why does opening up our hearts scare us so much? Why do we run away from serious relationships? All her characters, be it even the uber suave Sam are essentially flawed characters and it is fun exploring their fears and insecurities.

There were several small things that I felt could have been outlined in a better manner. Regardless of that, I really enjoyed this book. I loved the modern take on relationships and friendships and the interplay of diverse emotions. I'd recommend it, especially if you're a YA fan.

If you're looking for the book to take on your next vacation, this is the one. It was a smooth, easy read - in the best possible way - and reminded me of Emily Giffin or Sophie Kinsella's writing in the world of chick lit. My adrenaline was pumping during the more suspenseful scenes, and my interest was more than piqued during the steamy tension that author Erin Lockwood crafted between characters Caralee and Sam. I had a tough time putting Angles down, and am already looking forward to Part II.

This is such a captivating story that hooks you from the very beginning. The author's descriptions of characters, experiences, and situations paint a very clear picture that I can't (and don't want to) get out of my head. I am not usually one for love stories but a friend recommended this to me and I am so glad I read it. I can't wait for part II and hopefully even more from this author!!!
