“Jared paced, brooded, and once in a while, when his thoughts were particularly tormented, he winced. The color had long left his face as he played back the different scenarios in his mind. Back and forth he paced, so many times that I watched the floor, wondering when he would wear a trail. His inner turmoil could have set the room on fire. It was unbearable to watch, but I couldn't leave him; not when he was planning my death.”
Dreaming of the dead might mean a restless night for anyone, but for Nina Grey it was a warning.
Still healing from her last run-in with Hell, Nina struggles with not only her life as a Brown University student, but also as an intern at Titan Shipping, her father's company. Recurring nightmares about her father's violent death have become a nightly event, but being overwhelmed with guilt from Ryan's unexpected departure to the Armed Forces, and heart ache over Claire being across the ocean to protect him, Nina believes her sleepless nights are the least of her problems—but she's wrong.
Worried about Nina's declining health, Jared must steal back Shax's book for answers. Fighting new enemies, and with the help of new friends, Jared's worst fear comes to fruition. Desperate, he is faced with a choice: Fight Hell alone, or start a war with Heaven.
Requiem is the highly anticipated second installment of the Providence series by breakout author Jamie McGuire. Fans who fell in love with the descriptive prose, delicious suspense, and surprising twists and turns of Providence will not be disappointed as they continue in the journey of star-crossed lovers Jared and Nina.
REVIEW:
You thought that Book 1 was all about twist and turns, well you have not seen anything yet!
I knew that Jaime McGuire was a talented author, but ... OMG .... she proved that "talent" was an understatement. This author has a gift!
Nina and Jared have enough going on their lives but it just keeps coming! Nina can not sleep because of these strange dreams that she is getting about her father's death. Jared is trying to get the book back from Shax and figure out the dreams and the "prophecy". On top of that Nina is still in school, trying to work at her father's company (which she will take over), and somewhere in all that have a "normal" relationship with Jared.
Like I said before I have a obsession with religious conspiracy theories and Jaime sucked me right into this series with it. I loved how she mixed everything together. I never got bored with the story. There were no "slow" parts, every ounce of the book was incredible.
Onto Book 3 - Eden!
