Seventeen-Year-Old Luce is a new student at Sword & Cross, an unwelcoming boarding/reform school in Savannah, Georgia. Luce’s boyfriend died under suspicious circumstances, and now she carries the guilt over his death with her as she navigates the unfriendly halls at Sword & Cross, WHERE every student seems to have an unpleasant—even evil—history.It’s only when she sees Daniel, a gorgeous fellow student, that Luce feels there’s a reason to be here—though she doesn’t know what it is. And Daniel’s frosty cold demeanor toward her? It’s really a protective device that he’s used again . . . and again. For Daniel is a fallen angel, doomed to fall in love with the same girl every 17 years . . . and watch her die. And Luce is a fellow immortal, cursed to be reincarnated again and again as a mortal girl who has no idea of who she really is.From the Hardcover edition.

Pretty good. It has the same old, same old YA PNR formula for Angels, but I rather love that formula. I don't think I'll ever tire of two hot Angels fighting over the heroine. I find that romantic. This story is romantic. Any book where pastlife lovers are pulled together in every life only to be ri...
I was torn between 2-3 because it was okay but it was partly to blame for a horrible slump- it took me nearly a month to read. For some reason I found it really hard to really get into the world this book was set, I found it hard to empathize with the characters I think this was mainly as it was wri...
