In this book Gemma is nearly eighteen and wanting to follow in her fathers footsteps and become a protector, she agrees to wait and make her decision after graduation. One night she lies to her parents and goes to a party with her longtime crush Ford, while having the night of her life Ford is taken by a rogue and Gemma's life is changed. All her energy and focus are channelled into fighting nothing else seems to matter. The goddess Ameretat has plans for Gemma and in this book we discover exactly what she has in mind and what happens as Gemma grows into her role, afew surprises are thrown in as well.I've only given two stars because although I enjoyed this book I felt it should have been so much better, parts seemed rushed and things were brushed over, for example at the beginning when Ford was taken there was no mention of police or an investigation, now this may not seem important but when the first book seemed so very long and we were given so much information it seemed off, this is the only one I can mention without really giving anything away. Also towards the end of the book there's what felt like a big cop-out, it makes the whole book unnecessary and just felt like the author couldn't be bothered and just finished the book.####### SPOILER######The goddess makes Gemma using apart of herself to right the wrong that was done when the angels were sent to earth with the curse of immortality and to feed from the humans they loved so much, this is something she apparently can't do herself. In the small town in America Gemma and the brotherhood confront the rogues and they are given a choice, once this is done someone asks what of all the other vampires roaming the earth Ameretat answers "I've seen all and I know all. Those who are worthy............." why didn't she just do this in the first place it's ridiculous.#####################It's a shame because this was the best book until this
