About This Book
A parent might reach for this book when their teenager is struggling with the overwhelming intensity of a first serious relationship or feeling isolated by a secret part of their identity. It serves as a safe container to explore themes of conflicting loyalties and the pressure of meeting high expectations from peers and family. The story follows Willow and Alex, a pair of rebels fighting against parasitic angels who feed on human energy. As they travel to Mexico to build a resistance, the introduction of a new half-angel, Seb, creates a complex romantic triangle that tests Willow's sense of self and her trust in those she loves. While the plot is high-stakes fantasy, the emotional core deals with the transition into adulthood and the realization that the world is rarely black and white. It is most appropriate for older teens due to romantic tension and some intense action sequences.
