Darkness Betrayed (Torn 2) by Christine Hughes

After the betrayal of your best friend and the deaths of other friends what do you do? How do you grieve in a constant battle zone? The fight between good and evil is a long and hard one. The decisions you make will determine if you are an Exiled or a Faithful. Being only 18 make it all that much harder. Samantha is in love with her guardian angel but is having problems choosing to stay with him because they aren't suppose to be together. She wants him to be with her and wants to be with him but she doesn't see that happening any time soon. After training one day Samantha is taken by an Exiled and when she comes to she's chained to the floor.
Malena was once a Faithful, but like some Faithful and Exiled questioned her choices and wasn't sure where she truly stood. Having her choice taken from her she is now an Exiled. After Samantha wakes up chained to the floor Malena comes to her and tells her she's there to train her. Samantha can't control the dark and light inside herself to be the balance she wants to be.
Damien, the devil himself, was created to take the pain and suffering from the humans. He was once an angel in heaven but for his betrayal in the Garden of Eden was exiled and banished from heaven. Although he wasn't working alone. Sebastian was there whispering in the devils ear. Malena asked him for his help in deciding her side, Faithful or Exiled, and had the choice taken from her. She was made Damien's right-hand man and it is he who sends her to train Samantha. What he didn't know is that Samantha, though a healer, is also like him. She siphons the pain and anger away from her friends when a healer would just fill others with light. He wants her.
When you're desperate to help the ones you love you will do anything for them, even if you have to make a deal with the devil. When one returns another shall leave. There will always be a balance between good and evil even when one may start to tip the scales. What you do will determine who you are and what you fight for. Samantha is to be betrayed once more, but will she be able to keep her control? Can she stay enough in the light to be the balance she promised to be?

This book and this author are amazing! I honestly didn't want to finish this book because of how well written and entertaining it was. You get sucked into the story and just want to keep on going. You feel all the emotions each character has, you aren't just stuck with one or two feelings. You will touch a lot of different feelings while reading this book. I love when an author does so well of a job you are sucked into their world and can feel a part of it. I look forward to reading so much more from Christine Hughes!!
