The Lovely and the Lost

The Waverly family is dealing with some issues. Gabby is in training to join the Alliance. Grayson is fighting the urge to give in to his Hellhound side and Ingrid is dealing with her demon and angel blood. Just another day in Paris. Of course, this is a problem since this is not the way people behave in polite society in the 1800's. To top it all off, Luc, the families protector, is fighting his love for Ingrid which is strictly forbidden. See, Luc is a gargoyle and committed to protect all who live in his territory. To add to the drama, Axia is trying to get her angel blood back from Ingrid, as is a secret society who wants to experiment with it. So basically, Ingrid is in peril and Luc must try and keep her safe while keeping his distance. Then you have Nolan, the dashing Scottish Alliance member who is in love with Gabby, but must keep his distance because his father wants her to stay away. To add to the mix,  the gargoyles and the Alliance have an uneasy truce that could shatter at any moment. It's hard to know who to trust and who is on which side. Everyone is at risk, the Alliance, the Dispossessed, the Waverly's, the Daicrypta, Axia, no one is safe. This is book two in the Dispossessed Trilogy. This means there is a lot of action and zero resolution, so be prepared. There is a love triangle between Luc, Ingrid and Vander. (though not a believable one- it's Luc all the way). There is Grayson running off as a Hellhound, being called to serve an evil master. There is Gabby who does something unforgivable by accident that will put her relationship with Nolan in jeopardy along with her life. And the surprise- Marco, the broody gargoyle who is now solely in charge of protecting Ingrid. I love a good supernatural book as you know. This one has a great atmosphere, setting and interesting cast of characters. Start with The Beautiful and the Cursed and meet the family, then hang on tight- gargoyles really know how to fly! Happy reading my friends!
