Summary – From Goodreads
From USA Today bestselling author L. R. W. Lee, Marked is the third book in the addictive Morningstar Academy series, about a fallen angel who fights to save a world spiraling out of control, all while trying to protect humans and her own heart. This intriguing and unseen world of angels and demons is perfect for fans of Good Omens and Penryn & the End of Days.
Despite their best efforts, fallen angel Gladriel, her new fallen friends, and her former squadron mates have had limited success shifting the world ending prophecy and they feel increasingly helpless as war, famine, plague, and hyperinflation rage, killing millions of the humans they are committed to protecting.
With conditions worsening on Earth, celestial warriors are kept increasingly busy aiding humans, making Kessien less and less available. At the same time, Morningstar Academy forces Glad to do increasingly heinous things to humans, and the distance stretches their relationship to the breaking point.
Glad and her fallen friends’ only hope for rescue is to throw themselves on the Almighty’s mercy and beg him to reverse their sentences. Trouble is, Glad will never be sorry for avenging her BFF’s honor, against his explicit orders. So when her friends promise to never abandon her for their own safety, she finds it unbearable to be the cause of their impending doom along with her own.
This gripping story of longing, found family, and fallen angels is perfect for readers who:
Love unputdownable reads
Not your cookie cutter Academy series
Slow-burn, friends-to-lovers romance
End-of-the-world prophecy
Good Omens and Penryn and the End of Days
My Review
Marked is the third book in the Morningstar Academy series and it was just as fun to read as the previous books. I have been enjoying this series and am looking forward to reading the last book.
Gladriel aka Dree is still focused on the prophecy and hoping that her and her friends can somehow change it. Her teachers at Morningstar Academy don't make her life any easier and are certainly keeping them busy with causing chaos everywhere. While she and her friends despise what they are made to do to humans they must do what they are told or face the consequences. Will they find a way to help humans in the process or will earth be taken over by Lucifer?
With everything that has been happening on earth, Kessien and the squad have been really busy. This has caused Kessien to not be there for Dree when she needs him the most. But there is Dante, the fallen angel who has been by her side since she first arrived at Morningstar Academy. Will the distance cause a breaking point for Kessien and Dree's relationship? I enjoyed the relationships between the characters and the friendships that have been built.
With the way that the prophecy is playing out Dree and her friends only have one option to survive, that the Almighty will reverse their sentences. But Dree is not sorry for avenging her best friend. Will she be able to find it in herself to be sorry or will she and her friends be doomed forever?
This installment had just as much fun, excitement, action, suspense and romance as the previous books. The author has written such a great series and I am excited to read the final book and see how it all ends. This e-book was provided to me for review. This did not affect my review in any way.
