David Parson, torn between duty and love, returns to his true form as the Second Brother after being yanked from Alyssa's dream without the chance to say goodbye. Unwilling to conform back into his role, all he can think about is returning to the girl who introduced him to a new world, and kept his heart when he left. But his efforts to reconnect with Alyssa do not go unnoticed, and the Second is demoted, becoming an instructor at Glory Academy, a school for a new breed of angels called Pure Souls.
And Alyssa is their leader.
When Lachesis reveals that there was a miscalculation in their plan, and that Alyssa is in danger, it's a race to find a way back to protect her. But the journey to a solution won't be easy, and not everyone may come back intact.
Will the Second find a way to bring David back, or is his identity destine to remain in shadows?
