Synopsis: Angels are real.
So are demons.
Being a teenager in Shady Creek, WI just got a whole lot harder... and a whole lot scarier.
Julia received a necklace containing the songs of the angels from her dad when she was four. When she was eleven, he abandoned her family and the necklace went silent. Broke and heartbroken, Julia, along with her mom and little brother, moved from hotels to trailers until her mom finally found an apartment above the café she now owns.
At seventeen, Julia's doing everything she can to maintain security for her family, but now her necklace seems to have come to life once again. And that's not all that's changing.
When a robber attempts to steal from their diner, the necklace blazes and burns her chest. Pain in her back is nearly unbearable as the thief transforms before her eyes... into something demonic.
When demon after demon threaten her home, family, and friends, Julia realizes there may have been something more behind her dad's disappearance. And wherever he went, there may be something--or someone--dangerous now after her.
Facing an explosion, a kidnapping, and battles in a realm other than Earth, with a Guardian angel who's as infuriating as he is attractive, Julia has to come to terms with the fact that she's not quite human, and fending off demons is nothing, once the devil comes for her.
But it may be too late to save the ones she loves by the time she accepts the challenge he's putting before her.
I had sworn off angel books until this book and for the most part it was fairly enjoyable. The plot was fairly well done and the writing was excellent. The pacing was also really consistent. I felt that overall the book would be great for someone who likes books with demons and angels in it.
Unfortunately, that isn’t me. I felt that the romance was a bit wonky in the book and the main character was really annoying to me. She made some really questionable decisions and it kinda of didn’t make sense overall with her character.
Verdict: If you like angel/demon books this is the series for you!
