Summary
Add a SummaryClara is only part angel, but it's enough to make her a blip on the screen for dark, fallen angels to target and take out. She has a task to complete, as all angels do at some point in their lives. It's this task that moves them to a new town. Her mother is a higher percentage angel-blood and completed her task years ago in her long (but not quite "immortal") life. Clara knows little about her mom's task, as she won't talk about it much, and is struggling to decipher dreams and visions that leave her half-guessing at her choices.
Quotes
Add a Quote"The first time, November 6 to be exact, I wake up at two a.m. with a tingling in my head like tiny fireflies dancing behind my eyes. I smell smoke. I get up and wander from room to room to make sure no part of the house is on fire. Everything's fine, everybody sleeping, tranquil. It's more of a campfire smoke, anyway, sharp and woodsy. I chalk it up to the usual weirdness that is miry life. I try, but can't get back to sleep. So I go downstairs. And I'm drinking a glass of water at the kitchen sink, when, with no other warning, I'm in the middle of the burning forest. It's not like a dream. It's like I'm physically there. I don't stay long, maybe all of thirty seconds, and then I'm back in the kitchen, standing in a puddle of water because the glass has fallen from my hand."

Add a CommentLOVED IT!!!!!!! Theres a big twist and so much drama and action. this book is wavy!!!!!!! Angels, helloooo
Let's just say I was glad that I started this novel in 2013. I don't have to wait in agony to read the rest of the novels. :)
I really enjoyed the book. The ending was not what I thought it was gong to be. The author made a shocking thrill for readers for Clara when she chooses Tucker not Christian. I thought this book was great and I'm looking forward to read the next one.
This book is amazing!! The pressure upon Clara makes you ask yourself: will she complete her purpose or save the guy she loves????
Dear staff at RHPL, I love this book and I want to make a request to have the rest of the books in the series. This is a very popular series and I think many readers would appreciate it! Thank you!
I was wandering through the YA section in one of our region's libraries and this grabbed my attention. Very glad it did because this was a really great book. Looking forward to getting my hands on the second in a few days.
This book is amazing <333 Tuckers a babe :)))
I love Tucker. That's all I'm going to say. <3
Wow, i just put a whole bunch of books on hold at random, and this one i just couldnt put down. i finished it in less than 10 hours. I've got to say that Hand has a way of keeping a story interesting and holding you in her grasp til the very end. So excited to find out that there is also a second and third book. Although the third one is not out until January 22, 2013. Still, this was a wonderful book that kept the pages turning til the very end. :)
I really liked this book, but Cynthia Hand completely blew it at the end! The ending - the last paragraph, that is, was such a cop-out! I hate when authors do that.
