Goodreads Synopsis

            There’s something achingly familiar about Daniel Grigori. Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price’s attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at the Sword & Cross boarding school in sultry Savannah. He’s the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are all screw-ups, and security cameras watch every move. Even Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce – he goes out of his way to make that very clear. But she can’t let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, Luce has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret...even if it kills her.

My Review

            Fallen starts off with a bang! The main character Lucinda Price is sent to a reform school, Swords and Crosses, because she is suspected of murdering her boyfriend, Trevor, who was burnt in a fire. As soon as I started reading this book I was automatically sucked into the world of fallen angels. I couldn't put this book down. It's filled with lots of action, romance, and thriller. What caught most of my attention in this series was how the author beautifully described the wings of the angels. The details were so vivid that it seemed like I had sprouted wings. But enough about the book and lets get to the juicy details!

            Every romance book needs a hottie who swoops in to save the girl right? Well in this series his name is Daniel Grigori and he is a fallen angel! He has the perfect look, complete with the blonde hair, gray eyes with hints of violet specks and a badass attitude. I mean what girl wouldn't fall for a guy like that right? However, looks aren't what attracts Lucinda to Daniel, it's the deep, star-crossed, forbidden love that keeps bringing these two souls together from one lifetime to another. What would you do if you are reunited with your love over and over again, but torn apart before you get a chance to be together? Lucinda and Daniel fight for their love, their lives and their friends in this thrilling series that will leave you wanting for more.
