hush, hush by Becca Fitzpatrick

Romance was not part of Nora Grey's plan. She's never been particularly attracted to the boys at her school, no matter how hard her best friend, Vee, pushes them at her. Not until Patch comes along. With his easy smile and eyes that seem to see inside her, Patch draws Nora to him against her better judgment.
But after a series of terrifying encounters, Nora's not sure whom to trust. Patch seems to be everywhere she is and seems to know more about her than her closest friends. She can't decide whether she should fall into his arms or run and hide. And when she tries to seek some answers, she finds herself near a truth that is way more unsettling than anything Patch makes her feel.
For she is right in the middle of an ancient battle between the immortal and those who have fallen -- and, when it comes to choosing sides, the wrong choice will cost Nora her life.~simonandschuster.com

What can I say?  I'm a sucker for paranormal romances.  Who could say "no" to something with a fallen angel? The first book in this trilogy/series was fun.  I actually finished it in one day and was glad the library (which is around the corner) had the second one.  Although based on the description the reader is already aware of Patch's status as fallen angel the main character, Nora, has no idea.  This little tale is all about the bad boy, following your intuition, ignoring your intuition, and sacrificing it all for love.  Not an entirely new plot but entertaining none-the-less.  It was nice to read something decent that didn't have vampires, werewolves, or witches.  It was definitely more geared toward young and I mean high school "adults".  If you are looking for something super simple this might be up your alley but don't buy it, it's totally not worth it.  Go visit your library, if for some reason they don't have it they can find it for you for little or no charge.
