Uriel 3019 has been a cybernetically altered angel since he volunteered for the program fifteen years ago. His devotion to the floating city of Heaven is fierce, and he’ll follow any command he’s given. But Uriel’s orderly world is crumbling. Angels are going mad, even hurting people. Some are rebelling, and the noble families are vying for control—by any means necessary.
Uriel’s latest assignment brings him into a secret society, where his partner, Raphael, is working for freedom and equality for all angels. Could their group be responsible for the angels’ recent erratic behavior? Uriel is determined to find out—and report on his findings. But he doesn’t count on Raphael’s confession—that he has feelings for Uriel—or the memories slowly starting to return from the time before he became an angel.
Is he on the right side? Does he dare to stand against Heaven, even if doing so will save his fellow angels from becoming soulless automatons? Uriel has to decide if his loyalty belongs to his superiors… or to the angel who’s stolen his heart.

Reviewer: Shorty
Review: Angels are rebelling and the head families want to know who is doing it and to stop. Uriel’s mission is to undercover the culprits but along the way his memories start to return and he is torn. Couple with the fact he finds out Raphael is part of the rebellion puts him in a tight spot. Uriel has a thing for Raphael and Raphael feels the same but according to the law of heaven that is wrong. It will take both of them to uncover the families that have done so much damage to people.
I loved the explanations throughout this story. The complex hierarchy of the heavens was unbelievable not to mention the families fighting for control. I honestly wanted to slap every single one of them for things they made these men do in order for control. Did they honestly think they would be able to get away with their evil doings forever?
Uriel and Raphael were great together when Uriel finally relented. I loved them both.
Fantastic read.
