Checklist for your first day at a new high school: headphones; the darkest eyeliner you can find; and plenty of protection runes to keep demons at bay. Freya Snow isn't here to make friends. She also wasn't here to fight demons, but some things you don't get a choice in. Getting through the social hell of high school would have been hard enough without a ghost appearing to tell Freya that she's not human, has magic, and demons are out for her blood. For the first time in her life, Freya wishes she had someone watching her back, but the only person she hasn't managed to chase off already is Damon, the other new kid with enough secrets of his own that Freya doesn't feel so weird keeping the magical side of her life from him. But Damon's secrets might be just as deadly as Freya's as his father, the man who abused him for years, makes an appearance just as the demons on Freya's trail get a power boost from a mysterious benefactor. Will the two lonely teens learn to trust each other, or will their secrets tear them apart?
