Charley Davidson ricorda ogni singolo istante della sua esistenza. E sin dalla nascita è in grado di comunicare con i morti. Ma deve anche aiutarli ad attraversare la luce e a lasciare per sempre la vita.

Dalla sua ha un carattere esplosivo e una determinazione che la aiuta a non perdere mai di vista la realtà. Da qualche mese, poi, è accompagnata giorno e notte da una presenza eterea e oscura, sensuale e terribilmente familiare. Ma chi è questo essere così affascinante e misterioso che le impedisce di concentrarsi, che la distrae, facendole desiderare solo una cosa? E così, un altro mistero si aggiunge ai casi che deve risolvere. Non ha un attimo di tregua, fra piste da seguire, tracce da decifrare e pericoli sempre in agguato...

      Twelve. Twelve of the deadliest beasts ever forged in the fires of hell have escaped onto our plane, and they want nothing more than to rip out Charley Davidson's jugular and serve her body to Satan for dinner. So there's that. But Charley has more on her plate than a mob of testy hellhounds. For one thing, her father has disappeared, and as she retraces his last steps she learns he was conducting an investigation of his own, one that has Charley questioning everything she's ever known about him. Add to that an ex-BFF who is haunting her night and day, a rash of suicides that has authorities baffled, and a drop-dead sexy fiancé who has attracted the attentions of a local celebrity, and Charley is not having the best week of her life. But all of that barely scratches the surface of her problems. Recent developments have forced her to become a responsible adult. To conquer such a monumental task, she's decided to start small. Really small. She gets a pet. But how can she save the world against the forces of evil when she can't even keep a goldfish alive? A tad north of hell, a hop, skip, and a jump past the realm of eternity, is a little place called Earth, and Charley Davidson, grim reaper extraordinaire, is determined to do everything in her power to protect it. We're doomed."--Amazon.com

Garrett Swopes was the ultimate skeptic until he met a certain hellion and her husband. They vanished after stopping a catastrophic event and left him, a mere mortal, in charge of protecting their gift to mankind. But when she disappears as well, he needs the help of another breed of hellion. One who can see past the veil of space and time. One who betrayed him. She will get a truce in the deal, but she will never earn his forgiveness. Marika Dubois's son--a warrior in the coming war between heaven and hell--was foreseen long before his birth. But to create a child strong enough to endure the trials that lay ahead, she needed a descendant of powerful magics. She found that in Garrett Swopes and tricked him into fathering her son. A ploy he has never forgiven her for. But when he knocks on her door asking for her help, she sees the fierce attraction he tries to deny rise within him. And Marika has to decide if she dares risk her heart a second time to help the only man she's ever loved
