Synopsis 

Lil isn't just an average teenager. She's one of the Nephilim--the descendants of humans and angels--which gives her some serious psi skills and a mission for redemption. Just when Lil thinks she's found a balance between her normal life with human friends and her training to become a Guardian, she's warned that someone close to her will betray her. When the boy she loves starts acting strangely and one of her human friends acquires a supernatural ability, Lil begins to realize that someone is manipulating the people she loves... and won't stop until she's been lured to the dark side.

Review

I received this book in return for a honest review from the author. This book starts off seven months after the first book ended. Lil is still in training as a cardinal, while Remy, Kim and Sykes are off hunting she's stuck in training with a new psi instructor Master Hazil who came for Xenith to train her, as he had trained her grandfather and many other powerful psi guardians.

The team is sent out to find Bran who went missing while trying to find his brother who is trying to find the list. While searching the building where Bran is Lil stumbles across a little demon girl named Angelia who tells her that she's searching for the list so she and the other special children can return home to Coronis Isle to be with their parents. They don't know that Lil and the other guardians destroyed the island. 

Lil's father has decided to reach out to her as well, and when she avoids his calls he uses one of her friends as a medium to communicate with her. They also learn that in addition to the medium he also has a guardian spying for him and acting as the mediums guide. Lil has to find the guardian, save her friend, find a place for the special children, and save her boyfriend. 

This book is almost better then the first, but I love them both, each is a unique story about Lil and her fellow guardians. This book doesn't disappoint it instead exceeds my expectations as a sequel.  Like the first one this book draws you in right from the start. This book does an awesome job of balancing the action with the emotional aspects of the book. There are some unanswered questions from the first that did get answered. This book also has a lot of twists I didn't see coming that kept me on my toes. I started it yesterday and stayed up late reading till I passed out, only to finish it first thing this morning. It's a exciting series with great characters you grow fond of. I love the first two books in this series. I hope to see another book in the series, I want to know whats going to happen to Lil next.
