When angels fall like shooting stars, who can be certain of their fate? Thousands of years ago, Zeus created a legion of hunters to rid the world of magic. They're deadly, inescapable, and blindly loyal to their master. And now they're after me. My name is Kaidance Monroe, and sometimes when I touch people, I see how they die. I've always considered it a curse. After I saw my little brother's death but failed to stop it, my parents abandoned me to a juvenile detention facility. I don't let people touch me any more. Not my fingertips, not my skin, not my heart. Just before I turned 18, I got a visit from a guy with piercing eyes and a devastating smile, who tricked me into giving up my secrets. He said I was special, but he wasn't the only searching for me. I barely escaped with my life. Now I'm in a creepy mansion full of dark secrets, learning how to control abilities so powerful, even the gods are jealous. I didn't mean to make anyone fall for me. Certainly not my would-be killer. And I never imagined how far he would fall. He opened his heart to let me in, and I destroyed his universe. I'll do anything to make it right again, even if it means challenging my own fate. Luckily, I'm the only one who can. Broken promises. Shattered dreams. Bitter remorse. He's taken everything from me. I come to him bare, naked, revealed. Trembling in the darkness. But I can't ask for forgiveness, and I'm not looking for mercy. All I want is revenge - and when I see him again, face-to-face, I know, next time, I'll be strong enough to defeat him. The Scarlet Thread is a dark fantasy for fans of Greek mythology and Gothic romance. Fans of Fallen and Percy Jackson will be captivated by this mashup of fallen angels and forgotten gods. This is PART ONE of the first book in the Fated Destruction series.

Mehso-so

So...I actually liked parts of this book, despite my misgivings about angel insta-romances. The premise is fun, and the plot is lively. The characters are predictable as all heck and the heroine has an annoying tendency to be really dense about obvious plot points. Despite this, the story is fast-paced and opens up a lot of interesting possibilities. Might read the next one, when it comes! ★★★☆☆.
