Grave Secrets by Cassandra Aston
4.0
emotional slow-paced

 A twisting tale of life, death, angels, demons, and love.

Allie Graves died, but she didn't stay dead. Instead, she was recruited by the angels to fight demons for six years. After that, she gets another chance at living, but how does one go back to a normal life after that? Suddenly with only a month left of her contract, she finds herself with mysterious foes, a mystery guy, and a family secret.

As Allie finds her way to her family's old estate, she meets Simon, who says he's there to help her as he's helped the women in her family for generations. As they piece together the past, and as chemistry blooms, will the answers give them the chance for a better future?

This is an angels and demons story, yet it's so much more. At times it gets a bit lost in the story telling, and the past details seem like way too much, but there is a purpose. This book is full of wonderful, annoying, and evil characters. The Graves Estate is a world unto itself.

I did get lost in the pacing of the story at times, but it was still a fascinating read. I couldn't wait to find out what the next twist to the tale would be. Some were expected. Some were not.

Now we wait for the next book for the tale to continue to unfold!

Thank you to Booksirens for the arc.
