Unwelcome

So this is book two of the Archangel Academy series. I read the first one earlier this summer and wondered why a book with this title would be about vampires. Well, in book two the title becomes more clear. The story picks up where the first one leaves off, with Michael and Ronan having returned from sealing their union at the Well. A new headmaster arrives to take the place of the one who had staked himself and lo and behold it is Brania's father David. David is an ancient vampire who wants to find a way for his breed to walk in the sun. He also wants to destroy the water vamps and all they stand for. He spends his time getting his minions in line for the day of the eclipse when his plan will come together. In the meantime, Michael is trying to find his way as a new vampire and to try and find his place by Ronan's side. He wants to be treated as an equal, but Ronan is determined to keep him safe.  Meanwhile, Ronan's mother is looking for a way to be happy and all her children come to the school, which she hates, (not a mother of the year). There is much intrigue as you try to figure out who is on which side and who can be convinced to switch alliances. David is supremely evil and Ronan is unsure how to keep the people he loves safe. Michael finds himself at constant odds with Ronan's need to be in charge and finds temptation with Jean- Paul, his father's new driver. The minor characters, Kano, Phaedra, Fritz and Imogene all have things to deal with as well. As angels start to play a role in this series, I find myself more interested in this series. I like that this book is looking for a different audience that may not have a lot of supernatural books to choose from. Happy reading my friends.
