“Once readers figure out the horrendous changes in this future society, they quickly become enmeshed in this tense thriller that mixes Christianity with politics and government. This reviewer looks forward to the next installment in the series.” Carol Malcolm for Bitten by Books Though a bit more of a paranormal romance than its predecessor, this book should also please urban fantasy fans. The mixture of futuristic science fiction and angel lore works due to the strong characterizations of both Delilah and Rafe as the threads binding the two aspects together. The introduction of the wraiths, the shadowy former citizens who will do any job for a price, adds an eerie quality to the narrative.
Delacroix creates a stark, horrifying, and heartbreaking world visited by brief moments of beauty when the angels come to call. “No mean feat, the author ably sustains the suspense of the characters on the run in a cat-and-mouse game for the duration of the novel, resulting in a page-turning reading experience with thrills and surprises.
“Chillingly good!” -Romantic Times Book Reviews For a uniquely special reading experience by a gifted author, I recommend both FALLEN and GUARDIAN.” -Tanzey Cutter for Fresh Fiction This exciting story kept me entranced first page to last. In the Republic, all shades are slaves with no names, only numbers. “ This exceptional follow-up to the futuristic urban fantasy FALLEN continues the saga of Lilith Desjardins’ quest to locate Delilah, the daughter taken from her at birth because of a physical defect, which rendered Delilah a “shade” (those humans who failed the Sub Human Atomic Deviancy Evaluation).
As Rafe races to save Delilah, he knows he isn’t just saving her for the good of the Republic-he’s saving her for himself. She flees Rafe’s protection, but that only sets assassins on her trail. The powerful attraction between them makes Delilah doubt her ability to resist Rafe’s charm-and the price she could pay for pleasure. Rafe is a fallen angel, charged with protecting Delilah and ensuring she meets her destiny-even if she doesn’t believe he’s only there to help.
