This sequel to Hidden begins amidst a (confusing) whirlwind of activity concerning human Jordan; angel Nathaneal; and Ebony, whose angelic heritage remains in question. While Nathaneal, Ebony's fiancé, returns to Heaven to pay penance for past deeds, agents of evil attempt to trick Ebony into marrying dark Prince Luca. Three alternating narrators tell this story--clearly the second in a series.

Ebony already has questions about who she is, but when she meets Jordan at a party that turns violent, it becomes clear their connection is unique: she is his guardian angel. Her realization results in conflict between heavenly forces and in a strange tension between the two protagonists. In stiff language, Ebony and Jordan narrate the slow-paced story.

Guardians of Time series.
Isabel and Ethan, members of "The Named," are sworn to fight the Goddess of Chaos. These time-traveling teenagers, along with Isabel's brother Matt, now embark on a mission to save their kidnapped wizard-mentor Arkarian. With dual narrators, wide-ranging settings (from ancient Rome to the underworld), and a busy plot, this dense, challenging series installment has an epic quality.
