ForbiddenForbidden by Syrie James
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Avg rating: 3.88

Goodreads Summary:
She should not exist.

He should not love her.

Claire Brennan has been attending Emerson Academy for two years now (the longest she and her mom have remained anywhere) and she’s desperate to stay put for the rest of high school. So there’s no way she’s going to tell her mom about the psychic visions she’s been having or the creepy warnings that she’s in danger.

Alec MacKenzie is fed up with his duties to watch and, when necessary, eliminate the descendants of his angelic forefathers. He chose Emerson as the ideal hiding place where he could be normal for once. He hadn’t factored Claire into his plans. . . .

Their love is forbidden, going against everything Alec has been taught to believe. But when the reason behind Claire’s unusual powers is revealed and the threat to her life becomes clear, how far will Alec go to protect her?


Actual Rating: 3.8

***SPOILER***

I liked this book however it was very.... hmm what's the word... Twilighty.

Girl meets boy
Boy is "immortal"
They fall in love which is "Forbidden"
Boy leaves girl for her "saftey"
Girl starts to fall for someone else
Boy comes back to save girl
Girl saves boy by figuring out how to push her power onto boy

Like come on... Who doesn't see the similarities?

And I thought this book was a series... I had no idea it was just gonna end like that.

So by now you're probably wondering why I gave it 4 stars.. well lets just say it's a good thing I love Twilight
