Chronicle Supposing Books Immortal City (Immortal City #1)
Jackson Godspeed is the hottest Angel in a city that revolves around idolizing Immortals like him. He grew up in the spotlight, and in less than a week he'll become the youngest full-fledged Guardian ever. People around the world are lining up to pay for him to keep them safe. His lifelong dream of becoming a hero is finally within his grasp - and he can't afford to let the parties, paparazzi, or red carpets distract him.But Jackson's high-profile life takes an unexpected turn when he meets seventeen-year-old Maddy. She's smart and down-to-earth, and sees Jackson for who he is and not for his celebrity. They forge an instant - and electric - connection. Their vastly different backgrounds seem like the only obstacle in their path to being together... until something much more dangerous threatens to destroy their chance at love.
Because not everyone worships the Angels: a bitter killer is murdering the Guardians one by one. And it's up Maddy to save Jackson - he's next in the killer's sights.
Set in a reimagined Los Angeles that sparkles with glamour and celebrity worship, Scott Speer's Immortal City is charged with passion and haunted by themes of power and idoltry.

I have the books... 1-3 because my cousins (they are two) are head over heels about this book. But I'm not a fan... Supply me with something that is a better character not a cutesy one. One thing that is good about this one is the description of the place... I hope that counts???ORIGINALLY POSTED ON AFTERWORDS! While I started Immortal City wary of hoping for too much, in lieu of never reading a truly great angel story, it became promising very quickly. Mostly because of how unique the plot was, when in theory it shouldn't be. The general premise is fairly unoriginal: supernatural boy falls for normal girl... Been there, read that, have the bookshelves to prove it.But it's the setting of Immortal City that truly sets it apart; imagine modern time with one key
I loved the concept! I loved the characters! But...NO ONE PROOF READ THIS BOOK!!! There are so many grammar errors that whoever edited it needs to be fired! It is so distracting to have fragmented sentences and repetitive wording. The story is awesome too but there are holes in it. (Spoiler alert)At the end there is a human who sells his soul to a demon(who they call a dark angel, confusing because it looks nothing like an angel)and this human kills angels. But all through out the book they say
Rating: 4/5***Minor spoilers***In the Immortal City (that would be Los Angeles), angels are huge. After revealing themselves to the world about a century ago, they now use their saving abilities as a business. For large sums of money, a person can receive a guardian angel who will save their life should they ever be in mortal danger. Jackson is in the process of being promoted to guardian angel. He also happens to be the most popular angel in LA, so all eyes are on him. On the other hand, Maddy
It was good and kept me invested...but not until like halfway through the book. Maybe closer to the actual ending.Immortal City felt like a book that I've read before. The name being on the tip of my tongue.. but just can't say because I can't remember it that well. In it, you will meet Maddy and Jackson. Maddy gives zero fucks about angels or whatever they do with their lives and Jackson is kind of okay with becoming a guardian angel. I feel like he mostly just goes with the flow of things and
I think the best way to describe this book is: angels meet True Blood.Around a hundred years ago (maybe more), Angels revealed themselves to mankind. They are now the elite and charge huge amounts of money for protecting people (capitalist Angels, in other words). Jackson Godspeed is mere days away from being Commissioned and getting his first Protection. Maddy is a regular human girl, who was raised by her uncle, Kevin, and has no interest whatsoever in Angels. Through unusual events, Maddy
