From the first look, this book interested me. The cover is amazingly beautiful. I love the contrast of the colors and the transparent angel wings. This is definitely a cover that will shout out to you while sitting on the shelves. 
 This is a tail of "Forbidden" love. Alec and Claire meet at their private school on book day. This is the day that everyone comes in before school starts to collect all your books and locate your locker. Claire and her friends notice Alec in line and decide to take him under their wing to show him the ropes at his new school. What Alec and Claire find out about each other is really the last thing that either of them expected, but it turns out to be a beautiful romance until they are told otherwise. This leaves Claire fighting for her life and Alec willing to lose his to ptotect her. 
 Claire's Power 
 Okay, so if I was going to have a pecial power, I would definitely want it to be visions of the future, past or present. I thought this was kind of unique. All Claire had to do was touch an object or someone and she would be poofed right into a vision. The only downfall is that you are always afraid to touch something. How awkward to have a vision in the middle of talking or in a crowd. 
 Alec 
 The accent, the strong jaw line, tall, dark and handsome. Who wouldn't love Alec? I enjoyed Alec a lot! I loved that he was willing to push aside his feelings just for Claire to be happy. If Claire wanted to be with Neil, Alec would take a step back and just let her be. A true gentleman. 
 Helena 
 Once Helena came into the picture, she was kind of predictable. I figured that she would turn out to be some key component in the book. I, however, did not guess that! 
 Heartbreak 
 One particuliar chapter was heartwrenching for me to read. I was full of pain and anguish for both Claire and Alec. I had taken on a very adament hatred for Vincent and secretly wished that I could kill him myself! Thank gosh it was only for a short period, I literally felt my blood pressure rising! 
 Final thoughts 
 This book was written in alternating POVs with Claire and Alec. I have been searching around to try to figure out if this was a stand alone (boy I hope not) or a series? I am hoping that this will be a series, I would love to read more about their budding romance and where they all go from here. The reader is kind of left on a limb and I still have LOTS of questions running through my head? 
 The action caught Alec totally off guard, and he froze again, his heart going wild. No one had ever hugged him before-except his parents, and that had been so long ago, he'd almost forgotten what it felt like. "You're...welcome," he stammered, raising his arms and awkwardly hugging her back.
