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, Georgia. 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 though Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce—and goes out of his way to make that very clear—she can’t let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, she has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret . . . even if it kills her.

“Sexy and fascinating and scary . . . I loved loved loved it!”—New York Times bestselling author P.C. Cast

This book as a whole, is very reminiscent of Twilight. Except, with angels instead of vampires and werewolves. Same love triangle. Same overly attractive male main characters. Same girl falls in love with a guy who goes back and forth between showing her affection, and 5 minutes later giving her the cold shoulder. However, this book is very easy to read. It's quick paced, has captivating characters, and has a doomed love backstory plot. As a whole, while this book is very cookie cutter YA fantasy, it keeps you captivated enough to continue reading to the end. This is very much a mindless light read, but, if you enjoy the Twilight series, I highly recommend this book.
