The Fallen series

I am reading a book called Passion by Lauren Kate. Passion is one of four books in a series called "The Fallen". The series is about a human and an angel. In the first book, Fallen, Lucinda or Luce Price, is shipped off to a school called Sword and Cross. The school was a burial ground for soldiers from the civil war, and the cemetary is still there. It is a really high security school, and is basically like a prison. There Luce falls right into the middle of a war no one knows anything about. Her friends actually end up being angels. Not just any angels, fallen angels. She finds herself in love with one, Daniel. Luce then finds out that her and Daniel have really been together for years and years. And every 17 years Luce and Daniel find each other again, fall in love, and then she dies. Luce then found herself in a war between angels and fallen angels. In the second book, Torment, Daniel takes Luce to a private school that will keep her safe from harm and out of the war. The school is headed by two fallen angels and all the students are either angels or half angels. There Luce discovers things that are called Annoucers. They are shadows that have haunted Luce all her life, but she never knew what they were. Now she finds that she can step through them into her past. The book is called Torment because Daniel and Luce can never be together in the way they want too untill their curse is lifted. At the end of the book, Luce stops a war from breaking out in her backyard by stepping through an Annoucer and going to visit her past lives. She does this so she can discover where the curse came from so that her and Daniel can finally be together. I began reading Passion on Saturday and so far within the first 100 pages Luce has done some traveling through Annoucers. She has been to two of her past lives and has watched herself die twice. The only thing she has found out is that Daniel is following her, trying to get her back so that Daniel can tell her what happened himself.
