Ready for book 2!  Really liked this one.  Great characters and interesting job these Nephilim (children of angels) have at the Sanctuary.  Many come there when they are young & are trained to take out the bad: The Fallen, the minions & the deadheads.  Lily is one of the rare females -  she's a wild-card, but one of the best.There are multiple of storylines - Michael, a cop, is discovered by Lily and he is Nephilim - almost unheard of to be an adult and not know, not be discovered...so there is something special about Michael, and we see him deal with this new reality. Then there is Lily's admirer, Julian, who is a Fallen. Obviously he should be the enemy, but his actions have been uncharacteristic for a Fallen.  As their relationship develops Lily is not so sure things are black & white as she's been taught. I liked their romance and the Hot & steamy was very well written.  Julian is sweet, and a badass, gentle, but powerful.  Liked his character a lot. But there's definitely evil that has come to town and is taking Nephilim children, with the help of a traitor in the Sanctuary. A tiny bit slow in the beginning, but quickly picks up pace...plenty of action, romance, mystery.... a really good read!! 4.25
