Seventeen is a life changing age for Emma Wise.
As her family's sole survivor in a car crash, she is left with a broken arm and a few scrapes and bruises. But these are only outward marks; inside, her heart is broken and the pieces scattered.

Whisked away to Alaska, to an aunt she’s never met, Emma starts over. Secrets unveil themselves and now…she doesn't even know who or what she is.

A centuries old prophecy places Emma in the heart of danger. Creatures of horrifying and evil proportions are after her, and it will take Emma, her aunt, and six, gorgeously captivating Guardians to keep her safe. But, if she can survive until her eighteenth birthday... things will change.

Hidden Wings follows Emma Wise, who has just found out she is the sole survivor of a car crash that killed her parents. Emma is broken, and on top of the loss of her parents she now has to move away from everything she knows to Alaska to live with an aunt she has never met. Here is where Emma is going to discover family secrets, a centuries old prophecy centering around her, and find out that she is in danger, a lot of danger.

Hidden Wings by Cameo Renae is my favorite angel paranormal romance next to the very popular novel Unearthly by Cynthia Hand. Anyone that is a fan of Unearthly I believe will enjoy Hidden Wings. This book had it all when it comes to an amazing read, it had adventure, forbidden love, secrets, friendship, action and a bit of suspense and mystery sprinkled on top too. From the first page of Hidden Wings you are pulled into Cameo Renae’s writing, I found myself soaring through this book and before I knew it I had read it in one sitting! Renae’s writing flowed so nicely throughout the whole novel, readers will easily find themselves getting lost in the pages of her work.

While all around Hidden Wings was an immensely enjoyable read, my favorite part was the romance between Kade and Emma. There was such a mystery behind their connection in the beginning, and you couldn’t help, but feel for Emma once she found out that a romance between him and her is off limits. I’m not always a fan of the whole forbidden romance thing that a lot of YA novels like to have, but in the Hidden Wings series it was done very well. While it was a great part of the story, it was never something that took center stage, which I personally was grateful for.

Overall Hidden Wings was such a great start to a great series! Hidden Wings ends on a cliff hanger and left me dying to get my hands on book two and find out what happens to the characters I learned to love, and dare I say book two Broken Wings was even better than Hidden Wings! This is a series that I believe is going to continue to get better and surprise the readers more and more, anyone that is a fan of YA paranormal romances must pick this series up!
