Summary of the Book:
Evil exists. I know—I was created from it.
Most students at Guardian Angel Academy lived a good, possibly boring life on earth before their untimely deaths, which landed them at the academy, learning how to be good guardians for the hapless mortals still breathing.
Not me. My time on earth was spent as a servant of darkness, performing acts unmentionable to the undefiled ears of the angels at the academy.
But somehow, I was given a chance at redemption. Somehow, I got enrolled here. And somehow, I have to prove myself worthy of my angel wings.
Or I’ll get sent back where I came from.
Now if I can just survive the weapons instructor determined to find me guilty of demonry, the mysterious dark angel who won’t get out of my thoughts, and the hot-as-you-know-where angel who hates my guts because of who I am.
There is just one small problem . . .
I made a promise. A promise to the lord of the devils. If I keep it, my soul is forever damned.
But if I break it, I will be destroyed.
Welcome to Guardian Angel Academy.
Year 1: Renegade is the first book in an exciting new teen/YA paranormal angel academy series with a slow burn enemies-to-lovers romance. Perfect for fans of Supernatural Academy, Dark Angel Academy, Shadowspell Academy, and Evermore Academy.
My Personal Review: I received a copy of this book for a fair and honest review. This book had me hooked form the start and that is something that does not always happen. Sometimes it takes a few chapters to get me invested in the characters. Jez is a very interesting character and all she has to go through just to get to the academy. The promises made and what will happen if she breaks them. It is a low burn enemies to lovers book. It is well written and the world is depicted wonderfully and is now just drawn out. I am looking forward to the next in the series. I am not sure how one would earn their wings from this point, but I want to find out.
My Rating of the Book: 4 1/2 Stars
