Roxy moves from small-town England to Denver expecting a quiet summer before university. She plans to avoid angering her father, continue grieving her mother's death, and overcome her sleep paralysis. Then she encounters Zain, the beautiful boy from her recurring nightmares where they both burn at the stake. She watches him snap a man's neck and learns that jinn and angels exist in the real world. Meeting Zain sparks new nightmares that carry a dire warning. If Roxy and Zain act on their mutual attraction, severe consequences will follow. They discover their souls have been connected across centuries, making him both an angel and her destined partner. Angels and jinn are natural enemies, creating an impossible situation. Divine forces actively work to keep them apart. Roxy and Zain must choose whether their bond is worth defying celestial laws that forbid their union.
