"Lucy is a bright eyed, fiery redhead with a quick wit and a photographic memory. On the night of the spring equinox, Lucy meets Nathaniel, a dark and mysterious man who at first appears to have amnesia. Lucy feels inexplicably drawn to Nathaniel and is amazed to discover that he is invisible to everyone but herself. Fearing she is going insane--or worse, losing her photographic memory--Lucy goes on a hunt for answers. What she learns turns her world upside down.
FEATHER is a tale of love, the power of memories, and the struggle between right and wrong.
How far would you go to save your true love’s soul?"

Feather by Laurie Lyons
Book One of the Feather Trilogy
Feather is a heavenly read, literally.
Lucy has the gift of photographic memory and she can remember every conversation she's ever heard of. This obviously helps her academic grades, but it doesn't help her when she's faced with a problem that she doesn't know the solution to. Let's not forget that not knowing something is a huge thing for Lucy as she's usually known every answer to every question.
Nathaniel is every girl's dream.. Amazing eyes, a sweet and passionate personality, a complete angel. An actual Angel. Too bad Lucy's the only one that can see him.
Life is going great for Lucy. She has her wonderful friends, she has a wonderful future, but she's never had a guy that she's really loved. Sure, she's dated a couple of guys that she's liked, but none of them can really compare to the mysterious Nathaniel.
When the Demons realize that Nathaniel is changing a small place on Earth because of his heavenly connection, how far will Lucy go to keep him with her? Can a mortal come between the laws of Heaven and the wraith of Hell? Can she save his soul?
Feather is a book that you zoom right into. Every page is written so that you just have to continue reading until it's over! At first, it's slow. But once you read on and on, you'll be hooked.
Laurie's writing style is a bit different. It's good, but it is a bit to get used to.
Once you start with Feather, you'll have to continue on and read Gates.
Speaking of Gates, I had the opportunity to read the Advanced Reading Copy of it!

Gates(ARC) by Laurie Lyons
Book Two of the Feather Trilogy
In stores on May 24, 2013
Lucy's life is going great and things couldn't get better. She has a life to live with a now visible Nathaniel. Heaven and Hell can't possibly take him away from her now.
Roman is pretty much the only thorn on her side. Lucy, with her amazing memory, remembers every encounter they've ever had... Most of them not being very pleasant. Alas, Lucy's best friend is dating him and falling for him. Can they let bygones be bygones and at least act civil towards one another? Probably not.
Nathaniel's already met Lucy's friends when he was invisible in Feather and he quickly charms his way into her group of friends. They don't suspect a thing.. Except for Anastasia, Lucy's best friend. She's worried that Lucy is getting in over her head and falling for a guy that she thinks she's just met.
One after another, accidents are appearing near Lucy... Deadly accidents. Nothing like this has ever happened to Lucy and Nathaniel is getting extremely worried. Nathaniel proves, once again, that he'll do anything to save her life. But what if she's not the one in danger this time?
The Winter Solstice is coming up and no one is safe. Can Nathaniel and Roman, an Angel and a Demon, mortal enemies, save everyone before it's too late?
The ending of Gates will leave you breathless for more because Laurie Lyons just loves giving her readers a cliffhanger...
Anyways, speaking of Laurie, I've promised to serenade her!
Angel With A Shotgun by The Cab:
(I'm an angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun, An angel with a shotgun, shotgun, shotgun..)
Get out your guns,
battles begun,
are you a saint, or a sinner?
If loves a fight, then I shall die,
with my heart on a trigger.
They say before you start a war,
you better know what you're fighting for.
Well baby, you are all that I adore,
if love is what you need, a soldier I will be.
I'm an angel with a shotgun,
fighting til' the wars won,
I don't care if heaven won't take me back.
I'll throw away my faith, babe,
just to keep you safe.
Don't you know you're everything I have?
And I, wanna live, not just survive, tonight.
Sometimes to win,
you've got to sin,
don't mean I'm not a believer
And major Tom, will sing along.
Yeah, they still say I'm a dreamer.
They say before you start a war,
you better know what you're fighting for.
Well baby, you are all that I adore,
if love is what you need, a soldier I will be.
I'm an angel with a shotgun,
fighting til' the wars won,
I don't care if heaven won't take me back.
I'll throw away my faith, babe,
just to keep you safe.
Don't you know you're everything I have?
And I, wanna live, not just survive, tonight.
And I'm gonna hide, hide, hide my wings tonight.
They say before you start a war,
you better know what you're fighting for.
Well, baby, you are all the I adore,
if love is what you need...
A soldier I will be.
*coughs* Not so hard to figure out what character I think this song most refers to.
A slight change of lyrics from Jar of Hearts by Christina Perri:
No, I can't take one more step towards you
'Cause all that's waiting is pain
Don't you know I'm not your problem anymore
You wanted me to lose the love I loved the most
I didn't want to learn to live half alive
And now you want me to one more time
Without him
And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving chaos
Collecting your jar of souls
And tearing our love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the darkness inside your soul
So don't come back for us
Who do you think you are?
I hear you're asking all around
If I am anywhere to be found
But I have grown too strong
To ever fall back in your charms
And I've learned to live my life
And now you want him to die
And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving chaos
Collecting your jar of souls
And tearing our love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the darkness inside your soul
So don't come back for us
Who do you think you are?
And it took so long just to feel alright
Remember how to put back the life in my eyes
I wish I had missed the first time that we met
'Cause you broke all your promises
And now you're back
You don't get to get her back
And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving chaos
Collecting your jar of couls
And tearing our love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the darkness inside your soul
So don't come back for us
Don't come back at all
And who do you think you are?
Runnin' 'round leaving chaos
Collecting your jar of souls
Tearing our love apart
You're gonna catch a cold
From the darkness inside your soul
Don't come back for us
Don't come back at all
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
Who do you think you are?
So, who do you think my slight changes of lyrics is about for this? :)
