The noise between Patch and Nora is gone. They've overcome the secrets riddled in Patch's dark past...bridged two irreconcilable worlds...faced heart-wrenching tests of betrayal, loyalty and trust...and all for a love that will transcend the boundary between heaven and earth. Armed with nothing but their absolute faith in one another, Patch and Nora enter a desperate fight to stop a villain who holds the power to shatter everything they've worked for—and their love—forever.

I devoured Crescendo and after finishing it, I couldn't wait to read Silence. Luckily for me, it didn't disappoint me. It was full of mystery, discovery and romance.

Crescendo ended on a huge cliffhanger and Silence picks up a couple months after Crescendo leaves off. Nora discovers that she has been kidnapped, though no one is sure who is responsible. Nora has also lost all memory of her summer, as well as the memory of Patch and revelations she has made about Angels and Nephilim and whatnot.

This book really packs a punch. There is more drama and mystery and detective work going on. Nora is trying to piece her life back together and discover what has happened to her. I felt as frustrated as Nora at points and felt more connected with her in Silence.

Patch was as great as ever. He has had a nice transition throughout the series and I am glad that it continued into the third book. I can't say I was overly fond in book one but I am now a fan. 

The book ends on a cliffhanger with lots left to be discovered. Whilst I am a fan of the series I was preparing for this to be the last book. Alas, I am happily going to read the (hopefully) final book in the series.
