Life turned upside down for Maddy Montgomery when she found
out she was half-Angel and was catapulted into the scene of flashbulbs,
paparazzi, and the fervent adulation that comes with being in the celebrity
Angel world. She's trying to juggle her ordinary life—high school, family,
friends—with the intense demands of being in the public eye as heartthrob Angel
Jackson Godspeed's girlfriend.
And now Maddy must face the most difficult choice of her life. She's been offered the chance to become a Guardian. This means entering into dangerous and high stakes training, with no guarantee that she can succeed. But more than that, it would mean leaving her mortal life behind—forever—and allying with the Angels at a time when their relationship with humans is heading for war. (Goodreads)
I only plan for this so be a rather sort review, my thoughts: I really enjoyed the first book, but this one, Wooooo! So much is going on. I was so upset when it ended...not because of what happened, just that there was no more story left to read!
We get to see the angel training process through Maddy's eyes, though hers is an accelerated process. Which was interesting and fun...we also see Jacks kind of forced into the background as Maddy's charisma and special circumstances eclipse even him. Through Maddy's accelerated training she is introduced to Tom Cooper, and yes our love triangle may now be complete. We all know these stories where romance isn't the focal point, have love triangles.
Jacks is forced to go through a lot of changes because of injuries he sustained during the battle at the end of the Immortal City. Everything is compounded by the upcoming Presidential election and a rash of bizarre random catastrophes world-wide, among other things. Everything comes to a head and also a stellar cliffhanger...I hate having to wait for the next one!
This story had a pulse pounding pace with equal parts mystery, romance, adventure, conflict, supernatural beings, and drama. A potent mix and incredibly hard to put down. So much is learned and so much happens. Now for the frustrating wait for the final epic conclusion after an ending like what this one had in store.
