Synopsis

In the second book of this riveting angel series, Clara is haunted by a new vision—one that could signify the end for someone close to her. Perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare and Stephanie Garber.
For months, part-angel Clara Gardner trained to face the forest fire from her visions and save Christian Prescott. But nothing prepared her for the fateful choice she was forced to make that day—or the unsettling revelation that her purpose isn't as simple as she thought. Now torn between her growing feelings for Christian and her love for her boyfriend, Tucker, Clara is pulled deeper into the hidden world of part angels and the escalating war between White Wings and Black Wings.
Worse, a devastating new vision reveals a terrifying truth: someone close to her will die within months. With her future more uncertain than ever, one thing is clear—the fire was only the beginning.Love Triangle: Clara's feelings for both Christian and Tucker deepen just as the stakes rise, forcing impossible choices between duty and desire.Expanding Mythology: The battle lines between White Wings and Black Wings sharpen, pulling Clara deeper into a war bigger than herself.Emotional, Character-Driven Sequel: A heart-wrenching follow-up that balances the all-consuming joy of first love with the agony of loss.Fated Purpose vs. Free Will: Clara's "task" is no longer straightforward—she must decide how much of her destiny she's willing to accept.

I am going to have to sadly admit that this series is not my cup of tea. I tried to like Unearthly after reading all the rave reviews but found it only okay, it didn't blow my mind like I was so sure it would.
