Official Blurb:

There's something achingly familiar about Daniel Grigori.

Mysterious and aloof, he captures Luce Price's attention from the moment she sees him on her first day at the Sword & Cross boarding school in sultry Savannah, Georgia. He's the one bright spot in a place where cell phones are forbidden, the other students are all screw-ups, and security cameras watch every move.

Even though Daniel wants nothing to do with Luce--and goes out of his way to make that very clear--she can't let it go. Drawn to him like a moth to a flame, she has to find out what Daniel is so desperate to keep secret . . . even if it kills her.

My Rating: 4 stars ★★★★

My Thoughts:

 "What if the person you were meant to be with could never be yours?"

Those were the words I read on the back of the cover when I picked this up off the library shelf. so intriguing. Fallen is filled with mystery, and not all of it as predictable as you might expect - the second half of the book was a real page-turner for me. The ending left many unanswered questions but it wasn't too much of a cliffhanger. Also, the characters all seemed so real, and I quickly got attached to them. Great book, I can't wait to read the next one. On a side note... isn't the cover beautiful?! I totally love it!
