You loved how Willow and Alex’s forced alliance—fleeing the Church of Angels, hiding out in New Mexico, and learning to trust between stakeouts—blossoms into something fierce. In Angelfall, Penryn and the fallen angel Raffe forge a similarly guarded, enemies-to-partners bond while navigating a ravaged California ruled by predatory angels. If that mix of danger, banter, and aching loyalty hooked you when Willow first kissed Alex in the safehouse, Penryn and Raffe’s constant peril and tenderness will hit the same nerve.

If the reveal that angels in Angel Burn feed on humans—sparking “angel burn” and spawning the Church of Angels—grabbed you, you’ll love how City of Bones peels back New York to expose Shadowhunters, demons, and rune-powered angelic lore. Like Willow discovering the truth behind the Church, Clary stumbles into a hidden war and an attraction to the razor-witted Jace, with nightclub brawls and cemetery showdowns swapping in for those tense stakeouts and highway escapes.

If alternating between Willow’s gifts and Alex’s AK training kept you glued to the page, Legend’s back-and-forth between prodigy June and fugitive Day will feel instantly familiar. The cat-and-mouse chases, break-ins, and shifting trust echo that cabin-to-road-motel momentum after the Church of Angels puts a target on Willow and Alex—only here, each chapter flips the lens, tightening the tension as enemies inch toward allies.

From the first ambush to the shootouts as the Church closes in, Angel Burn moves—no filler, just close calls and hard choices. Shatter Me runs at the same clip: Juliette’s lethal touch makes her a hunted weapon, so escapes, betrayals, and clandestine alliances fly by in rapid bursts. If the getaway sequences with Alex—swapping cars, dodging agents, kissing between firefights—kept your pulse up, Juliette’s frantic flights and insurgent twists will do the same.

If the Church of Angels’ sermons, recruitment, and zealotry captivated you—especially how ordinary people succumb and how dangerous leaders exploit belief—The Sacred Lies of Minnow Bly dives even deeper. After escaping a violent cult, Minnow reckons with doctrine, control, and the cost of freedom. It’s the grounded mirror to Willow and Alex exposing the Church’s lies: fewer angelic battles, more raw aftermath of leaving a faith that claimed everything.
