Bryce Quinlan splits her time between her job and late nights out until demons slaughter her closest friends. The half-fae, half-human woman finds herself shattered and isolated. When authorities arrest a suspect but murders continue, Bryce becomes central to the investigation. She will pursue any path to make the killers pay. Hunt Athalar once rebelled against the Archangels who now own him. The fallen angel serves as their assassin, using his lethal abilities to eliminate their enemies without question. When demons terrorize the city, his masters offer him a bargain he cannot ignore: assist Bryce in tracking down the murderer and earn his freedom. Bryce and Hunt's investigation takes them into the corrupt depths of Crescent City. They uncover a sinister force that endangers everyone they care about. Between them grows an intense attraction that could liberate them both, if they allow themselves to trust it.
