BOOK SYNOPSIS:
The normal part of Lorelei MacAlister’s life didn’t just slip away quietly the day Jared Kovach came to town. Nope. The normal part of her life shattered. It exploded. It burst into a gazillion shards of fleeting light.

It went out with a bang.

Goodbye normal.

Hello dark and eerie.

While her best friend, Brooklyn, is focusing all of her energy on helping Lorelei hone her abilities, Lorelei is dealing with the reality that Satan’s second in command has taken up residence inside her body. Oh, and the fact that she has a crush on the Angel of Death. But what a beautiful death it is. If those weren’t bad enough, something sinister has come to town and it wants nothing more than to hear Lorelei’s dying breath as it strangles it out of her. Thank goodness the gang has a supernatural champion. But what happens when the only being who can save them switches sides midstream? How can a group of misfits capture one of the most powerful beings ever created? And will they find out how to bring Jared back to them before it’s too late?

REVIEW BY: Kelly
NUMBER OF STARS:  4

REVIEW:
Being a teenager is hard enough. But factor in that you are possessed by an evil spirit, in love with the Angel of Death, and you are all that stands between the forces of good and evil. That would make anyone have a bad hair day.

Lor and crew continue their mission to stop an impending war between good and evil. But along the way we learn a little more about Lorerlei and how she became what she is today. We also learn that even the Angel of Death has weakness.

This was a really good book. I was honored to get a chance to read early. And I am very much looking forward to the next book in this series.

I received a complimentary copy of the book in exchange for an honest review. This review is my own opinion and not a paid review.

    The one thing i enjoy most about YA books is even though most of the time, the scenes take place in-between school, the heroes and heroines can still manage to juggle their school work and the excitement and drama taking places outside of the classroom!

    I’m sure I’m in the minority but I like YA’s because there’s not so much sex! I enjoy more dialogue not just bedroom scenes. Love the stories!
