Lee had never known anything but running and hiding from the 'mafia' looking for her Uncle Sam. The last four years had been great, however. They'd settled in Washington close to her other Uncle Ahren and his wife Beth. She was finally home.
All seems to be going well in her life. Why then is she attracted to the man stalking her? The man who claims she is some kind of angel and has great powers. Shouldn't she run to Sam and tell him everything? Instead she trusts the man named Chael.
When the war threatens to erupt on Earth, Chael has no choice. He has to tell Lee the truth about who she is, and take her to the one place where she is safe...that is...until she's stolen again. Chael must track her down and fight the war between the rogue Fallen and Fallen...will they succeed before Hell's demons are unleashed on the world?
Sacrifices must be made. Will Chael save Lee before it's too late?
Kate grew up in Western Sydney, in Australia, and remains there today. She has always loved the written word, being influenced by the likes of Edgar Allan Poe, JR Ward and Anne Rice, she ventured into writing at a young age.
Finally taking the plunge in 2016 and publishing for the first time. Ever since, she’s been trying to bring the worlds she’s created in her head to the page for everyone else to enjoy as much as she does.
When she’s not writing, she’s looking after her bevvy of pets including snakes, lizards, axolotls, birds, a turtle and a dog with her husband Kyle.
After reading Fate book one in this series, I knew that Kate was an author to watch out for, her writing is so descriptive and really takes you on a journey into the paranormal. Uprising picks up 23 years after Fate in the year 2038. Uprising is Chael’s Story, Chael had a horrible childhood and went through things that should only happen in nightmares, but after training with Ace and Sidriel he has turned his life around and become a faithful servant to Ace and is also the only one that Ace trusts to find and return his daughter to him. Fairlee has been missing for 23 years and has no idea of who her parents are and what she descends from, she is powerful and fearless just like her Mom was and when she meets Chael she is unprepared for how he is going to turn her life upside down. Fairlee (Lee) had a simple normal life with her Uncle Sam until Chael literally fly’s in and changes all that. Neither Fairlee nor Chael are prepared for how their feelings develop or how strong of a bond they have, both will do everything and anything to protect the other. Uprising is a story through the realms of Heaven, Hell, Purgatory and Earth, it has the Arch Angels, Fallen Angels, demons, Vampires and even a mermaid and the president thrown into the mix, it covers true unbreakable love, discovery and strong family values. I loved falling in love with these characters as Fairlee discovers the truth and embraces who she is inside and I really felt the love story as it developed between the two main characters……..in typical Kate style though uprising leaves on a dramatic cliff-hanger leaving you desperate for more. I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for book three in this series as I need to know what happens next in this outstanding paranormal romance.
After reading Fate book one of the Fallen from Grace series I was hooked and was so shell shocked by the ending that I knew I had to read Uprising. This book takes place many years after Fate and continues the story of what happened to Ace's daughter Fairlee (Lee) who was kidnapped as a child by some of the Fallen that have turned traitor and Chael who is sent to earth to try and find her. Lee has no idea who or what she is and has no clue about her powers until Chael shows up and shows her what happened to her when she touches him. They become attracted to each other and they fall in love. They have to fight enemies from all sides as they battle to save Earth from the evil of rogue Fallen, Demons from Hell and even Arcs from Heaven try to get their hands on her! Many gut wrenching moments and an ending that keeps me wanting more once again. I was not disappointed in this story at all, Kate Bonham takes you on a twisting spiral of a ride that leaves you stunned and wanting more! Well deserves my 5 stars from a great author.
Man, I don't know which I love more this one or book 1.. This one is set further into the future.. Fairlee is now an adult and her Father is still searching for her..... Chael well let me just say omg HAWT! No spoilers But damn a great story.. Amazing characters new and old, a captivating storyline that left me wanting more... I can't wait to start the next book!
Really enjoyed reading this book. This is set many years into the future from the first one. You get to see what came of the characters and you get to meet new ones and fall in love with those just like the original characters!! Great writing by the author. I would definitely recommend this book!
I'm enjoying the unique storyline and really like the characters. But the abrupt end of this one was very strange. It seemed a little odd and I'm really confused. I realize they come in installments but it wasn't a cliffhanger or even at a very dramatic moment. Hopefully the next book will come out soon
It has taken me a while to read Uprising..That I blame on Kate. Before you gasp and such Its Kates fault because Fallen the first book broke my heart and took me on a emotionally charged journey i wasn't prepared for but loved and still now it breaks my heart and i have read it 4 times.....Anyway Uprising book 2.... Tore me apart anew and rebuilt me. Kate is an amazing writer her worlds, her characters are so complex and so full of depth and emotion that you will forget its a book and you will feel right alongside them. Join Chael and Lee in their battle of truths loss love and finding themselves and each other. Kates Fallen from grace series is set to set the reading world on fire.BUT beware you are going to need tissues this book will break you down and build you up just to do it all over again and you will love every minute of it!!. Kate will leave you hanging on to her world and hungrily waiting for book 3.
