Mortal Instruments: City of Fallen Angels

City of Fallen Angels is the fourth book in the bestselling series The Mortal Instruments. 

“City of Fallen Angels takes place two months after the events of City of Glass. In it, a mysterious someone’s killing the Shadowhunters who used to be in Valentine’s Circle and displaying their bodies around New York City in a manner designed to provoke hostility between Downworlders and Shadowhunters, leaving tensions running high in the city and disrupting Clary’s plan to lead as normal a life as she can — training to be a Shadowhunter, and pursuing her relationship with Jace. As Jace and Clary delve into the issue of the murdered Shadowhunters, they discover a mystery that has deeply personal consequences for them — consequences that may strengthen their relationship, or rip it apart forever. Meanwhile, internecine warfare among vampires is tearing the Downworld community apart, and only Simon — the Daylighter who everyone wants on their side — can decide the outcome; too bad he wants nothing to do with Downworld politics. Love, blood, betrayal and revenge: the stakes are higher than ever in City of Fallen Angels.”

Mortal Instruments: City of Glass

"There is no pretending," Jace said with absolute clarity. "I love you, and I will love you until I die, and if there is life after that, I'll love you then."

There is no more pretending now. Jace and Clary fought their way through the dictates of their hearts, and there is no chance of hiding their feelings for one another now. 

In this book, the war in the Shadow worlds had ended, and both Clary and Jace won victory over Valentine. Everything is very well at peace. Nephilims, Vampire, Lycanthropes and Faeries fought hand in hand with them and together they were able to guard the Mortal Instruments against Valentine.

This book solved all the mysteries that lie within, but will this book solve the battle of desire between Jace and Clary? will they be able stop pretending and show the whole world how they really love each other? 

Can Love really conquer all?
