She still doesn't fully understand these powers she's been granted as a half-angel Grigori. And worse, isn't even sure she's capable of using them. Stab someone through the heart? Really?
No matter how bad things get, though, Violet doesn't run and she doesn't quit. Even if it means she can never allow herself to love the guy she longs for. Even if it means asking her enemy for help. Even if no one is telling her the truth.
The war between Exiles and Angels is on—and she's wanted by both sides.
Review of Embrace (the first book in the series) here.
This is yet another of the series that I've read lately that I can't get enough of. I really love the intriguing take on angels and guardians Shirvington takes on, and well, let's be honest here shall we? I'm totally book-crushing on Lincoln. Um, yeah. I'll admit it. And that's totally not cougar-ish as he's technically closer to my age :) Anyhow, yeah. This was a fun second book, with a few middle-sags in actions toward the beginning, though the new characters spiced things up nicely. I really enjoyed Spence's character in particular, mainly because he completely reminded me of my own brother (of the same name--I'm not joking, it was like Shirvington was channeling my brother!). So, yeah, lots of fun, hottie action, a random trip overseas, and an escalation in the overall battle that's going on. I'll admit that I could have dealt with a little more info on the Scriptures, as those really felt secondary in some respects, but hopefully in the next book we'll see more. And more Lincoln.
Read it? Like it? Do share!
Oooo... Jessica's work looks fun! My kind of book! Thanks, Meradeth!
