Temptation of Angels

by Michelle Zink

Expected publication: March 20th 2012 by Dial Books for Young Readers

Even angels make mistakes in this page-turning epic romance...

When her parents are murdered before her eyes, sixteen-year-old Helen Cartwright finds herself launched into an underground London where a mysterious organization called the Dictata controls the balance of good and evil. Helen learns that she is one of three remaining angelic descendants charged with protecting the world's past, present, and future. Unbeknownst to her, she has been trained her whole life to accept this responsibility. Now, as she finds herself torn between the angelic brothers protecting her and the devastatingly handsome childhood friend who wants to destroy her, she must prepare to be brave, to be hunted, and above all to be strong, because temptation will be hard to resist, even for an angel.

Michelle Zink masterfully weaves historical fantasy with paranormal romance to create a gripping tale of love and betrayal.

Angels, huh? Not really a fan of angel books. However, I said it before, and I will say it again: I love Michelle Zink's writing. The way she writes is just smooth, descriptive, and lyrical. And I think this factor is reason enough for me to pick up this book. Her Guardian of the Gate and Circle of Fire are two of my favorite books. Zink's stories will draw you in with the intrigue and mystery and romance! Ahhhh! The romance in her Prophecy series is just sweet, sexy, and sometimes... scandalous!
