What started as a nightmare, turned into a fairytale. Some might argue, Angel Cross was doomed from the start. Born to a life of servitude and raised to be an instrument of death, the girl was never comfortable unless there was a gun in her hand. Then she went and did the craziest thing of all…she fell in love. While the rest of her friends slip into a simple routine of domesticated bliss and saving the world, Angel has a harder time finding her footing. Instead of explosives, she finds herself toting a car-seat.

Raven Danvers is a typical college student…until a demon attacks her on the night of her 21st birthday. Luckily, she’s saved by Noah - a mysterious, sexy wolf shifter who appears and disappears before she can ask him any questions. Then Raven's mom is abducted by the same demon who came after her. And who turns up at the scene of the crime again? Noah. He’s hunting the demons who are taking humans, and he’s ultimately heading where Raven needs to go to save her mom - the mystical island of Avalon.

He's gone, and the worst part is, I don't know if he's dead or alive. I dealt with the curse. I picked my side. The hellish nightmare that I woke up to when I discovered I was a Watcher should be over, but it's not. Weeks have passed with no sign of Gage, and I can't seem to move on, but a war is brewing, and wallowing is no longer an option. With the ruler of the Netherworld after me, my new mission not only affects one realm, but all of them. Save my mom. Save the souls. Save the world. No pressure.

Yesterday I was a teenager waiting tables in Manhattan, and today, monsters exist and I can see them. Overnight I’m thrown into the realm of the Watchers, a society of earthbound angels split into two factions: the Shades, whose powerful dark magic is given to them by the fallen angels, and the Lumens, whose abilities are bestowed on them by the archangels of Avalon. They’re on opposite sides of a brutal war, and I only have a few days to pick which side I want to join. I’m ready to choose when the Shades force my hand by cursing someone I love.

My mission hasn’t changed: Defeat Apollyon and free the souls trapped in the Netherworld, but everything just got a lot more complicated. I have a sister, my boyfriend’s a shifter controlled by my enemy, and now it’s not just my life that’s in danger, but my soul as well.

Somehow, Raven has convinced Noah and Sage - the two wolf shifters who saved her from a demon attack - to let her tag along on their quest to kill 10 demons. The payoff for completing the mission? Entrance to the mystical island of Avalon, where Raven will go through trials to gain the strength she needs to save her mom’s life. Raven wants to help the shifters on their quest. But Noah refuses to put her in any danger - which makes no sense, since he hates her. At least she thinks he hates her...until he catches her off guard and kisses her.

I wondered what my life would have been like if we had never moved to the ho-dunk town of Spring Valley, Illinois. Sure the internet service was splotchy, there was nothing but miles of wheat fields, and I probably wouldn't be faced with death at every corner. My only neighbor in this god-forsaken town was...well there really was only one to describe him, hot as hell. With his sinful dark looks, unusually silver eyes, and kissable lips, there was something about him that was more than meets the eye.

My name’s Cassia. When my mother died and my father vanished, everything changed. I planned to graduate high school and leave my dark past behind me, until I met two very different guys; bad boy Thames, and football captain Cairo. Except there’s more to these two men than meets the eye. Without warning, I’m caught up in a dangerous love triangle, trapped in a world where angels and demons are fighting for the souls of mankind.
