Angel, chased by demons and angels alike, is being persecuted for murders she didn't commit.
----
Shy, abused Reanna died-- or she thought she did. Upon waking, she found herself with feathery wings and a task: To be a Guardian Angel. She's sucked into the ethereal world of Angels, Fallen, and Demons, a strange and dangerous world, and educated in the ways of an Angel.
Years later, she's been attacked by something that could only be called a demon, though all should be locked in Hell; and so begins a string of events, beginning with persecution for Angelic murder, and stretching through moments of terror and delight, death and guardians, innocence and blood.
Through it all, Reanna has to be strong, and figure out why, exactly, her world is collapsing.
Ella is falling apart trying to live a "perfect" high school life. Then she meets Ren, who can see past her scars. Suddenly perfection isn't her only option.
