White (Wings)

"I love you," he said with a smile on his lips. And then his eyes snapped open, flashing green. A radiating white blur shot out from between his shoulders, smashing everything within reach. I was thrown to the ground by the force of it and something hard hit my head. The last thing I saw was Adam's shape against the white radiating light that seemed to have its source inside him... When 18 year old Claire Gabriel meets Adam, her life takes a drastic turn. He seems to have stepped right out of a fairy tale and he is beautiful - more than anything. On the way to discovering his secret, Claire soon finds herself in love with the mysterious boy.  Unable to evade the dark shadow their feelings for each other draw up, Claire becomes a target in the the eternal war between good and evil; because Adam isn't the only mysterious creature hovering around Claire . . . White is Angelina J. Steffort's debut novel and the first book in The Wings Trilogy, the story about the impossible love between a girl and an angel. ___ Praise for White: "Angelina's first novel is virtually unputdownable: a delightful, wicked, deeply seductive fantasy with characters that leap off the page and a love story that has its reader yearning for more. Thank God there will be more installments to come. Read at your own peril - because you are going to get stuck and burn the midnight oil with this one: Angelina J. Steffort has crafted a deeply engaging world with a level of astounding detail. For an author's debut, this is world-building at full power and romance writing as it should be." (Toni Weiss, Creative Partner & director @ Little Lights Studio) "White is a thoroughly entertaining tale of Good vs Evil. Claire and Adam are two young adults living ordinary lives. When they meet, Claire unknowingly becomes a catalyst between the forces of good and evil. People and events are not always what they appear to be. The ending came as a complete shock! I can't wait to see what happens next." (Donna Wolz, editor @ Wise Owls) "I read, no, I swallowed the story. White has a great flow and the ending brings together nicely the storylines Angelina builds up throughout the whole book. It was easy to fall into the mystical love story between Claire and Adam. White is captivating and suspenseful. A real page turner." (Katharina Sabetzer, coach & writer @ erzählbar) --- About the author: "Chocolate fanatic, milk-foam enthusiast and huge friend of the southern sting-ray.
