Eli, Lucia's half-demon love interest, has been stabbed with a true-cross dagger and captured by Cyrus, master of the possessor demons.

The Chosen Knights must work together once again not only to save Eli, but also to decipher a clue to find the second missing page of Jacques de Molay's journal. Meanwhile, Uncle Davin informs Crossroads Divine Elders of the danger ahead and learns there is much more to fear.

Countless children are being taken from all over the world to be turned into demons.

Michael, one of the Divine Elders, has no choice but to intervene. The Chosen Knights track down Mortem, the demon who is the key to finding Cyrus, and learn they must travel deep into the pit of a Hawaiian volcano.

When they astral travel to the past in search of a clue and follow Jacques de Moley to Roselyn Chapel in medieval Scotland, what they find will rewrite history.

I love this series so much! It seriously gets better and better with each installment. This book will take you on an emotional ride, so buckle up!

The plot thickens in the next book of The Angel Knights series. So many new things are brought to light, and just as many things are questioned. The Blessed Knights picks up where The Chosen Knights left off. We get to jump right back into the story. There is no lull, which I love! The plot is strong. I can't even imagine all the plotting and time went into this story. I love that the premise is wholly original. There are common themes with many other fantasy and paranormal books, but the author does an incredible job of making them seem new. She really makes these themes her own. The pacing of the story is fairly fast paced, so you will never be bored. There is an enormous amount of action in the story, which I adore, and there are emotions running wild across the board. I love that the story is told from multiple perspectives. It gives the story so much more depth.

The characters really stand out to me in this series. I feel like I know each character intimately. I feel what they feel while I am reading. Lucia and Eli's characters grow a lot, as does their love for one another. I just can't get enough of their romance. There are some new characters in this book that were not in the previous books. I liked the new dynamic that they brought to the series. I am also very curious about the mystery character at the end. I cannot wait to be enlightened in the next book in the series!

I really loved the blending of historical and paranormal/fantasy. It really makes the story stand out in the mass of young adult fantasy and paranormal books. The very unique premise is outstanding.

Overall, this book is incredible! It will grab hold of your heart and never let go. I can't recommend this series enough. I don't know how I am going to wait for the next book in this series! I want it now!

It was a way to grieve the death of her beloved grandmother, and inspired by a dream she once had as a young girl. When she started reading new adult novels, she fell in love with the genre. It was the reason she had to write one-Something Great. Why the pen name, M Clarke? She tours with Magic Johnson Foundation to promote literacy and her children’s chapter book-No Bullies Allowed.
