Summary:  Life as the Preliator is harder than Ellie ever imagined.
Balancing real life with the responsibility of being Heaven’s warrior is a challenge for Ellie. Her relationship with Will has become all business, though they both long for each other. And now that the secret of who she really is has come out, so have Hell’s strongest reapers. Grown bold and more vicious, the demonic threaten her in the light of day and stalk her in the night.

She’s been warned.
Cadan, a demonic reaper, comes to her with information about Bastian’s new plan to destroy Ellie’s soul and use an ancient relic to wake all the souls of the damned and unleash them upon humanity. As she fights to stay ahead of Bastian’s schemes , the revelations about those closest to her awaken a dark power within Ellie that threatens to destroy everything—including herself.

She’ll be betrayed.
Treachery comes even from those whom she loves, and Ellie is broken by the deaths of those who stood beside her in this Heavenly war. Still, she must find a way to save the world, herself, and her love for Will. If she fails, there will be hell to pay.

My Thoughts: Wow, and I thought  I loved Angelfire. Wings of the Wicked was ten times better! It was freaking great. I won't say much about this one because I want you to just buy it and experience the awesomeness on our own.

We are back with Ellie and her guardian Will. We also meet and see more of Kate, Nathaniel, Lauren and Marcus. And of course Caden. These side characters are marvelous and I love having them in the story.

Bastien and his crew are out to destroy Ellie for good and most of the book focuses on this, along with Will and Ellie wanting to be together but but being forbidden too.

And of course Ellie is trying to resume a normal life and do teenage things. She also feels more drawn to Caden and I can see why she is.

Wings of The Wicked was great. I'm not going to say much more because I don't want to give away spoilers but this is one hefty book, over 400 pages and it has some sad moments that made me want to cry. If I say much, I'll give away spoilers from Angelfire and than you'll know too much! Do yourself a favor and just pick up this series now!! Things happen you don't want to see coming. And after they do, you feel mad and sad, and wonder, why why why?

Overall: A Great sequel! I can't wait until book 3! I finished this one and said out loud, "I need the next book now!!" I’m so torn between Will and Caden, I like them both.

Cover: Love it! Love how she looks so powerful! I think the cover is pretty neat.
