Unchained by J. Lynn

 "Of all the people, Nephilim and humans alike, you've been the only one who has ever made me wish I was a man and not what I am. You did that-Lily, not the Nephilim."

"Eight Years I've waited for you to realize that. I've waited for you to see yourself for who you really are. You're Lily Marks,a beautiful, extremely clever woman whose capacity for compassion sets you apart from the Nephilim. It's not your fighting skills or how good of a warrior you are. It's the fact you look at me and see a man rather than a Fallen."

I cannot praise Jennifer L. Armentrout enough for her. This woman is a writing machine and an amazingly talented writer. Unchained is a new adult paranormal romance and the first in the series Nephilim Rising. Jennifer Armentrout writes her New Adult books under her pen name J. Lynn just in case for any confusion. Lily marks is a nephilim, a breed of fallen angel and human. Lily works with the sanctuary, a group of Nephilim that protect humans and other Nephilim from other demonic creatures. Lily is a total badass that wears bracelets with retracting blades on it.  Julian is a fallen angel who has an obsession with Lily and seems to show up at the right time."He's like the friendly neighborhood angelic stalker" In his offense he has saved Lily's life twice. The sanctuary teaches Nephilim at a young age that fallen angels are evil and not to be trusted. They did fall from grace for a reason right? There is some chemistry between Lily and Julian, but with previous incidents and their beliefs any relationship is forbidden. The sanctuary starts to suspect a traitor amongst their organization and guess who is the first to be suspected. Lily starts to regret her life choices and just tries to stay alive. This book has it all, great heroine, action scenes, and very hot romance. I would recommend to anyone who loves romance, even if you are not into the whole paranormal thing.
