Publisher Description
He lost his wings.
She gave up her soul to save him.
Eli has faced his share of enemies, many of whom were once his own brethren. But when the ruling body of the Seven learn a human dies on his watch, they question his compassion. It doesn’t take long for the angel to find himself wingless and back in the mortal realm. He’s never been a saint; a bounty hunter always holds a darker side. But his clock is now ticking and if he doesn’t learn empathy soon, the next place he will land is directly in Hell.
Ashley has never considered her gift “special”. She walks a razor’s edge of sanity and falls deeper into despair every time her visions show her another death. Desperate to escape reality, she runs to her remote cabin in Alaska. If she can’t look a person in the eyes, she won’t watch them die. Hope is something she’s never known until she meets the intense blue gaze of a stranger.
Evil is coming for Ashley and to save her, Eli succumbs to its call. What he doesn’t count on is her tenacity and the fact that she belongs to him. While he’s fighting to save her, she’s busy bargaining with Lucifer to regain Eli’s soul. The price she’s willing to pay just might end their future together.
These are not your mother’s angels.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Twombly's slim fantasy romance, the disappointing first in a new series, posits a topsy-turvy world where male angels procreate with human women to breed new generations of angels. Archangel Eli, a bounty hunter, tracks fallen angels who have begun to take innocent lives. He's hurled to earth by the Seven, female angels who rule in the absence of their maker, to learn compassion or be sentenced to hell. While in the Alaskan wilderness, Eli meets Ashley, who's cursed with the ability to see people's death if she looks into their eyes, and rescues her from a Hellhound attack. Even though Eli has sworn off women and has no need for a mate, blizzard-melting passion ensues. The pair pause in their lovemaking long enough to battle sinister fallen angels, assorted demons, and even Lucifer himself. Pedestrian plotting and simplistic characterizations make the proceedings of these angels and their paramours difficult to get through. (BookLife)
