A SACRED OATH
A FALLEN ANGEL
A FORBIDDEN LOVE

Romance was not part of Nora Grey’s plan. She’s never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school, no matter how hard her best friend, Vee, pushes them at her. Not until Patch comes along. With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, Patch draws Nora to him against her better judgment.

But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora’s not sure whom to trust. Patch seems to be everywhere she is and seems to know more about her than her closest friends. She can’t decide whether she should fall into his arms or run and hide. And when she tries to seek some answers, she finds herself near a truth that is way more unsettling than anything Patch makes her feel.

For she is right in the middle of an ancient battle between the immortal and those that have fallen – and, when it comes to choosing sides, the wrong choice will cost Nora her life.

I love these gems from the late 00s. For me this pub time has been very iconic in terms of young adult books! I know I’m super late for the party, but Hush, Hush has been on my to-be-read list for a very long time and now I finally read the first book! So what did I think? I liked it a lot!

The romance is very intriguing. I don’t know how the author was able to create a romance that felt both tamed and at the same time very in-your-face. It seems very direct because there’s a lot of tension between the main characters when they’re together, but at the same time the romance itself felt almost non-existent. This was not a bad thing for me because there are three books left in the series, and I know the romance is probably going to develop very soon.

I really liked both of the main characters, but I especially loved Patch. Well, he’s not exactly a human being, but I really liked his energy and overall personality. I can tell this series is going to be a wild ride just from the characters!

The plot itself seems a bit confusing, but maybe it’s because I don’t usually read books with angels and nephilims… I think I’ll get the hang of it soon though (I hope).I’m curious to see where the story is headed next. I’ll be reading Crescendo in the near future!
