The Devil's Kiss by Sarwat Chadda
Release Date: September 1st, 2009
Pages: 336
Fifteen-year-old Billi San Greal never meant to make history. Co-opted, or rather coerced, at the age of ten into the modern-day remnant of the Knights Templar by her father, the Grandmaster, Billi's the first girl ever to be a Templar. Her life a disciplined round of weapons' practice, occult lore, and a heck of a lot of bruises, Billi would happily settle for being a normal high-school girl rather than a secret warrior out to defeat the Unholy.
When she meets seductive, exciting Mike, Billi is dazzled. At last here is someone she can confide in; someone who will make up for the coldness and fear of her life. But Michael is not just a heart-breaker, he's an archangel with a terrifying agenda: to unleash the Tenth Plague — the death of all first-born children - and kids are already falling sick.
As the Templars ready for combat, it's clear that Billi's destiny is interwoven with that of Michael. Now she must choose who she wants to be. If she chooses the path of a true Templar, living out her terrifying heritage, it will destroy everything that matters to her. And there are some things, as Billi will discover, that are much, much worse than death . . .
This book caught my attention when I was searching for another book I want. It sounds pretty interesting.
Sadly it doesn't come out until September.
