Book 1 in the 'Paraverse' series. "I wish to become beautiful, inside and outside." For eighteen-year-old Faye Martin, becoming beautiful was the only wish she ever had. And surprisingly, one summer night, it comes true. And then along with it, she's granted a lot more than she asked for. Introduced into a new world with creatures she didn't even know existed, Faye now finds herself stuck in between supernatural creatures and on a mission to avoid a very persistent, sarcastic and hot as hell, demon. Because once you wish upon a demon, there's no going back. Or in this case, the demon just sticks onto you until you want to throw yourself off a cliff.

Grace knows demons are bad, but that doesn't stop her from running off with one in order to save the world. *** Grace isn't very good at the Angel life. Sure, she's one of the best Demon hunters around, but she's too fond of human habits and also happens to be in love with her mentor, Nate, which isn't exactly ideal. And when demon Robert Blackwing starts stalking her, claiming to know things that Nate refuses to explain, she can't help but be drawn to him. Caught in a forbidden romance which threatens to strip her of her very essence, Grace struggles to save humanity from a malevolent force which threatens to engulf the Earth and drain the energy out of every living soul. And, in the end, setting off the Apocalypse might be the only way to save the world. Content warning: This story contains violence Cover designed by Holly Thurston
