Gilded Wings (Angel Chronicles #2) Excerpt + Giveaway!

 I'm excited to participate in the read-along blog tour of Amy Lignor's Gilded Wings, book two of her Angel Chronicles series. If you are in the mood for a supernatural romance read, be sure to check out the tour and enter the giveaway below!

When Matt and Emily are sent on their second mission they have no idea how truly dark human nature can become. Emily never wanted to face humans again. With the heartache that went on down below, she’s still trying to figure out how to save souls that don’t deserve saving. The only one she wants to see again is Jason - the young man she fell in love with who became the soul mate she simply can’t forget…
   Matt was trained to protect and defend the souls down below. Longing to feel the heartfelt emotions that come from being human, Matt wants nothing more than to have just one life - one chance - to live and love the girl of his dreams…
  The powerful team find themselves in a brand new century, living in the Gilded Age of New York City. Emily takes over the body of Anya, a young Russian girl who arrives on Ellis Island after a hideous tragedy. There she meets up with a strangely familiar young man by the name of Drew Parrish, who helps Anya survive in an unknown world of luxury, snobbery and…obsession.
   What Anya’s inner angel doesn’t know is that the soul she loves is also back. This time around Jason goes by the name of Max Carrow. Once a quiet and kind boy, he’s now part of the ‘Four Hundred Club,’ and wants nothing more than to be among the most admired as he climbs the shaky ladder of society’s elite. As two worlds merge, Emily and Matt struggle under the weight of their “Gilded Wings.” Not only will they have to figure out who they should fight to save, but they must also face a romantic choice that could destroy them both.


Here is a little excerpt from the book for the read-along tour:

“That’s true,” she agreed. Disappointment entered her voice, “He’s just like William Astor; he can’t really stand all the society ridiculousness. But he has to care...for Max and Myles.”
Drew offered a reassuring smile at Anya’s worried look. “Acceptance into that club isn’t something you need to strive for, Anya. They’re even worse than Brighton, believe me.”
“Oh,” Anya stated sourly. “Him.”

“Exactly.” Drew laughed. “Most boring group of people you’d ever want to meet.”
Hope ignored his remarks and continued her ‘who’s who’ tour of American society. “Mrs. Astor never liked the Vanderbilt family. She thinks they’re basically businessmen—a very common lot. But Alva Vanderbilt erected a stunning cottage in Newport, Rhode Island that rivals Beechwood. I’ve never been inside, but from what little I could gather from Mitchell, the thing is massive. Supposedly every room is filled with crystal, bronze statues and expensive works of art. Now...let’s shop!”

  1. Ever since Kimba's tour stop, I've been determined to read this series but I just can't seem to find the time. I have a really good feeling about it for some reason, though.
    Thanks for the reminder! And thanks for sharing the excerpt.
