17 year old Lucinda falls in love with a gorgeous, intelligent boy, Daniel, at her new school, the grim, foreboding Sword & Cross... Only to find out that Daniel is a fallen angel, and that they have spent lifetimes finding and losing one another as good & evil forces plot to keep them apart.

"I'll miss you soooo much Em" I said tears filling my eyes. I didn't want to go, but I also did. This was one of my only chances to get a new life. My mum was worried, my dad was worried, even my brother. They all thought I was an outcast car crash. They always told me to go back to my old self, but how could I? He was my everything and he left me. I shake the image out of my head as I head back to my mums car.

"Was I just a game to you?" Luke whispered on the verge of tears. "No, of course not! I love you Luke!" I cried, pleading for his forgiveness. "How can I believe you when all I was, was a bet to you?" Luke trembled. "Luke, you must believe me, I didn't even think about the bet. I date you because I love you, not so I can beat Audrey in a stupid bet," I said grabbing his hand. "I'm sorry Destiny, I love you so much. It just seems like loving you hurts a lot lately," He sighed looking down at our hands. "Luke please," I sobbed shaking my head. "I'm sorry, love you," He said for what seemed like the last time. He let go of my grip and walked away. Just. Like. That.
