Book Summary

      Gray is a sniper for the military where she meets the love of her life, Kell Crew. They both end up on a mission in China that leads the two of them captured. Gray believes Kell is dead and when she is rescued she leaves him behind. Eventually, she learns that Kell isn't dead and she will do whatever she can to bring him home. 

Gray Milby -The female main character is a complete bad ass. She is an impressive sniper. I love how strong her character and isn't a "fake" strong character like some books have. She's been through hell and back, and in the end she is willing to sacrifice her happiness for someone else's. She also shows she is human and has moments of weakness. 

Kell Crew -The male love interest who has quite a tragic story. I loved his character and his interaction with the main female.

I received a copy of this book free from Book sprout in exchange for an honest review. As much as I enjoyed this book and it is an easy read, I can only see myself giving it three out of five stars. I felt like some of the story was a bit rushed especially towards the ending. I don't know if I'll read any of the other books in the series but, I might in the future. If the other writes a story with Kell as the main point of view, I would definitely read that. Especially, if he gets a back story. I loved his character.

Rating:3/5

Cover:2.5/5 I feel the cover is kind of bland compared to most. I do love how it is grey and fits with the title of the book.

Book Summary
            Grace was best friends with one of the most popular guys in school, Graham. She has never fit in and has been considered a freak. Now that she doesn't have her best friend by her side she doesn't know how she will survive her last year of high school until she meets the hot new guy. The new guy doesn't care about the rumors that are spread about her. Things get complicated when she learns that Robert (the new guy) is an angel. 

Grace Shelley-One of the most annoying heroines in a book that I have read so far. She lets everyone walk all over her and she never stood up for herself. Like most YA romance she falls head over heels for the two hottest guys. She is considered a freak by her classmates. 

Robert -He is considered one of the hottest guys in school who falls for the heroine. His character was decent most of the time. He reminded me of Edward from Twilight except not as creepy as Edward was.

Graham -My least favorite character in the book. He was selfish and arrogant. I wanted Grace to put him in his place but, of course she didn't. Like Robert, he is one of the hottest guys in Grace's school. Grace and him were best friends for most of their life until his girlfriend got in the way of their friendship. 

Stacey -My favorite character, she speaks her mind and stands up for Grace. I wish the book was about Stacey because she would make a great heroine. 

Lark-Lark is Robert's sister. I also enjoyed her character. She could be described as having an icy personality towards people but, she eventually connects with Stacey and Grace.

(-)Cliche book

(+) Angels 
(-)Graham
(+)I enjoy the book cover
(+) When the main character isn't selfish

(+)The fight scene was fun to read

           "Serves you right for being here,you jerk," She spats.

I really wanted to enjoy this book but, I found myself bored while reading it. (I even skipped some pages to see if it would get any better). I read the whole book since I don't like to write reviews without actually reading the book. I didn't have a problem with the writing style but, I found the plot and other parts of the book boring. I might try to read book 2 in hopes that it might be better.

Rating:1/5
