Angel Down

"O’Brady has done to angels what Stephenie Meyer has done to vampires." ~ Vincent Dublado, Readers' Favorite "Angel Down by Micky O'Brady is a compelling meld of science fiction and the supernatural, featuring memorable characters and a conflict that takes readers by the scruff of the neck and defies them to put the book down. Micky O'Brady is able to open a path to escapism so cleverly that I crossed the threshold unknowingly. It is the kind of craftsmanship that elevates the art of storytelling to a worthy calling." ~ Ruffina Oserio, Readers' Favorite "Angel Down by Micky O’Brady is a paranormal romance with action-adventure elements that appears eminently suited to the young adult audience. Angel Down includes the thrill of a forbidden romance, the excitement of reconnaissance, and the satisfaction of suspicions confirmed." ~ Cecelia Hopkins, Readers' Favorite Ten years ago, the Founders, angel-like creatures, arrived in their spaceships and conquered humanity. Seventeen-year-old Lea Akiyama knows all their rules by heart, especially the Eleventh Commandment: Thou Shalt Not Touch Those Descended From The Heavens. After all, breaking that rule got her parents killed. Unfortunately, she does touch a Founder. Okay, she saves his life, but still. It would be eighteen-year-old Jamie’s right to kill her. Instead due to a weird twist of fate they both end up doing the bidding of the human Resistance. Trapped and forced into cooperation, Jamie is the last person Lea expected to bond with. Granted, he’s definitely hot thanks to those uber-perfect Founder-genes, but he’s still one of them. Yet, as Lea and Jamie begin a dangerous double game for their freedom, the sparking tension between them becomes impossible to ignore. Desperately trying to keep their distance from each other, Lea and Jamie uncover the Founders’ biggest secret—a secret that could change the course of the world and puts Lea in mortal peril not only by the Founders and their commandments, but even more by the boy she is falling for.
