I received an ARC copy of this book in return for my honest review. 'Soren: The Angel & The Prize Fighter' is the first novel in a new young adult paranormal series following teenage main character Beau as she discovers she is going to become an Angel.The story is well told and merges a darkly toned reality with the concept of angels existing amongst humans. Beau's life is difficult and she is forced to make some hard choices to help her sick mother. These choices put her in danger and made her almost instantly likeable. I liked the other characters also and look forward to learning more about them as this series continues.I will admit it took me a little while to get into the story simply because there were quite a lot of different characters and it was fairly fast paced so it just took some time to absorb everything. However as soon as I got into it I was captivated and very much enjoyed the interactions between the characters and the slow unveiling of various elements of the tale. The ending was just brilliant! I would definitely read the next book.Overall an excellent start to an interesting and original young adult paranormal series. Highly recommended for fans of YA and paranormal romance.
