Angel Eyes by Shannon Dittemore

Brielle is an older teen returning from the big city of Portland after the horrific murder of her best friend. She is coming home to a small town in Oregon. She is severely traumatized, and is having trouble coping.
Jake is the new guy at school. He has an unbelievable gift, and for some reason, his hands are always very hot!
Jake and Brielle are brought together by events bigger than the both of them.  Supernatural forces are gathering in this small town and the two high schoolers play a pivotal role in the coming events.  They are guarded by two angels and evil has entered the town. A demon has arrived and is bringing trouble for these young people and the town.
Jake and Brielle are called to join the battle...amazingly in the spiritual realm.
This was a good book.  I liked the story line and the characters were well developed and believable.  I really liked the way the author describes the visualization of fear in the supernatural realm.  The angels can literally see the fear clinging to humans, oozing off of them, and "...like a heat-seeking missle, it runs...seeking someone, anyone to attach itself to."  If only we, as humans, could see what fear actually looks like...we could perhaps understand better how it is the weapon of choice for the enemy, paralyzing us and holding us hostage...(paraphrased).
I am looking forward to Dittemores next book in this series.  Although the book is appropriate for the teen market, I feel that adults can enjoy it as well.
This book was a complimentary copy from the publisher through Booksneeze.   This review reflects my honest appraisal of this book.
