Don't sell your soul to the Devil. Take out a loan instead! Darcie Rose is Satan's top Substitute Soul, tasked with temporarily replacing the eager living souls who sign a deal with the Devil. The exchange is a simple one. They receive a Lucifer-facilitated status boost when they return to their body, and Darcie earns a temporary reprieve from Hell. But there are two rules she must abide by if she wants to stay on Luci's good side: 1.) Avoid her former life now that she is an accidental murderess. 2.) Never expose proof of a demonic Hell in the presence of humans. Easy as pudding... until now.

Merrigan wasn't really an evil queen. Her royal siblings referred to her as the brat, and she lived down to it. However, she was married to an evil king. When he lost a fight with a magic apple tree and got himself killed, she did whatever she could to hold onto the kingdom. Including lying to a powerful seer. Big mistake. Merrigan was cursed: turned into an old woman, she was doomed to wander until she learned to care about others.

In book 4 there’s the librarian, of course, all the main characters from books 1-3, including the town of Eden which is certainly a main character, and a witch.

Es ist eine stürmische Nacht kurz vor Weihnachten. Die Zwillinge Amanda und James liegen in ihren Betten, als plötzlich etwas mit einem lauten Platsch auf das Dach plumpst. Kurz darauf hören die beiden ein Klopfen vom Fenster - und trauen ihren Augen nicht: Auf dem Dach steht ein kleines Mädchen in einem dünnen weißen Hemd. Und sie hat Flügel, die bis fast auf den Boden reichen! Ein Engel? Hilary, so heißt das Mädchen mit den Flügeln, klettert durchs Fenster und macht es sich auf dem Sofa gemütlich.
