Sammael--call him Sam--was an angel once. An angel of Death. But
the dispassionate, watch-from-above thing just wasn't working for
him when it meant watching evil torture innocent souls day in and
day out. It might have cost him his wings, but these days he gets to
apply the direct method on the bad guys. Problem is, what's making
his life difficult is a bad "girl." Seline O'Shaw needs protection, and
with the hounds of hell on her tail, she's not going to quibble too hard about
where she gets it. Sam's virtue is questionable, but he's smoking hot, massively
powerful, and owes her a favor. So what if she's getting a little case of angel lust?
There are some damn deadly sins after her hide.

than any the earth had ever seen. Betrayed by someone they
trusted, the warriors were cursed, one by one, imprisoned in
stone, their freedom resting on nearly impossible conditions. Until
Damian Stephanos honed his skills in battles fought with magic as
much as swords. Caught by a spell that left him trapped for centuries in
darkness, he is finally freed, only to discover that his enemy still lives.
Determined to find him-and to free his brothers in arms-he first must
fulfill his blood debt to the woman who released him from his torment.

torment altogether. Cassandra "Casey" Lewis is a hunter. Possessing the
