Passion

Book three of the Lauren Kate series about mortal Lucinda and her soul mate fallen angel, Daniel Grigori, picks up immediately after Torment left off. Lucinda has jumped into an Announcer as a means to try and break the curse that keeps her and Daniel apart. This books takes you on a tour of time, ancient Egypt, World War 1 in Italy, at the home of the French King, as Lucinda discovers all the times she and Daniel have met and all the times she has died. She has a guide on the way, a gargoyle named Bill, who is not what he seems of course. Daniel chases her through time, trying to figure out a way to end the curse as well. The other Fallen Angels are also on the hunt to find current day Lucinda. This was not my favorite book in the series. It spent a lot of time on Luce trying to figure out if Daniel really loves her... duh! It got interesting in the final few pages as the real identity of Bill is revealed and his master plan unleashed. As the Angels, both good and bad, gather to figure out a way to stop this plan, book three ends... and the wait for Rapture begins... Spring 2012. Daniel remains one of my favorite fictional boys and I think Cam may worm his way onto my list as this series ends- but the jury is still out on that for now.
