Teen angel, Persephone, is the only one in all of Heaven who can’t sing. In fact, her name literally means “Voice of Destruction.” So diving down one of Heaven’s portals, straight into singer Taylor Hamilton’s bedroom, seems like a good idea at the time. Maybe, just maybe, he can help. Plus, he is sooo cute!
While it can be fun swooning over a mortal, it can also be frustrating. Angels aren’t supposed to fall for mortals. Then there’s Taylor’s guardian angel, who is ready to sabotage the budding romance at every turn. Will Persephone learn to sing before Heaven calls her back? And, most importantly, can love prevail for an angel who has fallen head-over-wings for a mortal?

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
This book is precisely what it looks like. It is a light, clean romance about a teenage angel falling to earth to be with a mortal boy. The romance is sweet and perfectly clean. There are a couple of very chaste kisses that happen. The characters are a bit shallow, but generally likeable. The plot is predictable yet still enjoyable.
I would have liked to see the writing and the characters a little more developed. While the feel of the book was very light and breezy, it almost felt under-developed. Almost. I still enjoyed the story quite a bit and I plan on reading more of Molly's work.
If you are looking for something light, clean, and fun, this is a good choice. This is a good book to read on an afternoon when you just want a feel-good story. This book will appeal to tween and teen readers.
Content: clean.
The Cover: So adorable! I love the colors and the placement of the girl. The title design is perfect for the book, too.
I received this book in exchange for my honest review.
This book turned out to be way better than I expected. I found the beginning to be very corny with the pillows in Heaven made out of clouds and such, and I wish that she had the bracelet from Peter right away after going though the portal to earth because hiding her wings in that backpack was driving me nuts an it was so unbelievable that no one really questioned why she wore it constantly especially at work. But once she got the bracelet the story became so much better as I was not distracted by the annoyance of the backpack. It really turned out to be quite a sweet story about love and the meaning of friendship that actually had me in tears the last chapter.
I absolutely loved this, It was fun, funny,and hard to put down,from one mistep to another, It made me laugh and yes, a tear or two also. I received this book from Goodreads in exchange for my honest opinion. I would love to read more of this author.
Delightful. This book was a joy to read. It was a pleasure following the trials and tribulations of Persephone. This appears to be a stand alone book, but it would work as a good start for a series.
Fallen Angel is a clean, quick YA read with plenty of humor and a few tense situations that move the story along. Most of the issues and feelings in the story aren't things I relate to at this point in my life (so glad to be past that teen stuff), but I think many young teen girls would enjoy Persephone's story, especially if they can relate to crushing on a cute boy and/or wanting to change something about themselves so they can stay with their friends.
Although somewhat clueless in her new surroundings, Persephone has moments of strength that shift her focus from herself to helping others.
I had a hard time letting go of my idea of angels and how they might act if they visited, but aside from that the story was pretty cute.
I was given this book in exchange for an honest review. Persephone is quite an angel. She's spunky, sweet, thoughtful, and determined. Her friend, Saffron, literally gets sucked into Persephone's fall. Together, they manage to pull off some interesting feats. And along the way, Persephone falls in love. :) I loved the end to this book. It was where I thought things might go, and I'm glad they did. The story line is quick, upbeat and always thoughtful. This is a book full of little things you don't really consider. It brings a fresh perspective to falling for someone, and the unexpected things that happen along the way.
It was very cute. Persephone is an angel that can't sing. While watching "mortals" in the pool she sees Taylor and thinks he's cute. She then hears his voice and falls in love with it, wishing she could sing like that. She ends up going through the portal to get Taylor to teach her how to sing and ends up having all sorts of problems.
It was a little too fluffy for me but it was a good read.
