YA
Clara is half-angel and half-human. She's supposed to rescue Christian from a forest fire sometime in the future--but she's falling in love with Tucker while uncovering uncomfortable information about angel-bloods. What are the consequences if Clara fails, or worse, refuses to fulfill her purpose? Intriguing (if somewhat underdeveloped) angelic races and a believable love triangle help even out Clara's existential angst.
