Daniel, a fallen angel, decides to follow her, promising to find and rescue her.

And so Luce, desperate to unlock the curse that condemns their love, must revisit her past incarnations in order to understand her fate.

[2] Despite the reviews, Passion, reached the number 7 spot on the USA Today Bestseller list on June 23, 2011, after its first week of release.

On July 3, 2011, Passion reached number 2 on the New York Times Bestseller list, right behind the Hunger Games series.

[3] At the opening of the novel, Luce is running blindly through time, using Announcers as portals to her past lives.

Luce is cursed to die every seventeen years and be reincarnated, but she has no idea what causes her continual deaths.

All Luce knows is that with every death, she is separated from her lover, Daniel, who follows her through eternity, falling in love with her again and again, in every lifetime.

If she makes one false move, she could alter history forever, potentially killing herself for good.

But Daniel is not the only one in search of Luce; many of the other fallen angels, and Cam, a demon, race through time trying to track her down.

Although their motives aren't entirely clear, it is understood that if they find Luce before Daniel does, it could have grave consequences.

Luce's friends from school, Shelby and Miles, are also attempting to locate Luce but being Nephilim - the offspring of fallen angels and humans - their time traveling skills are clumsy at best, creating extremely dangerous situations for all history.

In each of these short visits, Luce struggles to discover the meaning behind her deaths and the truth of her love for Daniel.

In her attempt to understand why she continues to die again and again, Luce learns from Bill how to "go 3-D" cleaving her current soul to her past souls, allowing Luce to enter the bodies of her past selves and experience her histories as if they are occurring in the present moment.

When the moment arrives, however, Luce is unable to free her soul, claiming that she could never separate herself from Daniel and that there must be another way to break the curse.

Throughout their entire journey, Bill - who is really Satan - has been deceiving Luce in the hopes of breaking Daniel's heart, sending him to the Dark Side.

Since then, both Heaven and Hell have been trying to convince the angels to choose one side or the other, thus altering the power of good and evil in the world.

Satan needs one more angel to gain more power than Heaven, and he hoped Daniel would be that soul.
