Azima Rousseau, a demon hunter destined to save her world from the denizens of the Underworld, has to venture through the Seven Levels of Hell in order to face its Prince and close the rift between their worlds once and for all. ***** Ever since her eighteenth birthday, Azima Rousseau knew she would die battling the forces of Hell just as her mother had, and every other Rousseau before her. So when her destiny delivers her to Death's door, it is not the Devil who answers, but the Demon Prince Malecoda. Instead of ending her fated existence as his sworn enemy, he decides to bind her into a pact that challenges not only the intensity of her will to survive but also the integrity of her soul to persevere. Together they soon discover who the monsters truly are- Azima's own people. [[ 2021 WATTYS SHORTLIST ]] ---------- Cover designed by Stefanie Saw

Tic...tac...tic...tac... Les secondes défilaient lentement pendant cette fameuse nuit, le temps était froid. Aussi froid que le corps qu'il venait d'enterrer. Aussi froid que la bibliothèque où elle venait enfin de terminer ses révisions. Le calme régnait...des deux côtés. Mais le calme aimait se faire désirer chez lui...et maintenant chez elle. À cause de lui. « Allô ? » Ils n'avaient rien en commun. Ils ne se connaissaient pas vraiment. « La cible est en train de sortir de la bibliothèque, on attend ton signal Kai. » « Allez-y. » Enfin ça...c'était avant. Avant qu'elle ne soit l'objet de sa nouvelle mission. Et de sa curiosité. (Not owned picture)

After unknowingly saving a mafia boss from a botched bank robbery, Kiara accepts an offer to work for him as a translator, not realizing love may become part of the package. ***** Though Kiara Payne may be a genius when it comes to languages, what she knows of the real world largely comes from books and movies. But after foiling a robbery on her first day as a bank teller, Kiara finds herself thrust into a world of danger, her life resting in the hands of the infuriatingly sexy Italian mafia boss Milo Di Vaio. In exchange for her safety, Kiara agrees to serve as Milo's translator, accompanying him across Europe as he tries to clean up the mess his late brother left behind and save the reputation of the Di Vaio crime family. Cold, ruthless, and sinfully beautiful, Milo is hard to resist but even harder to love. As tensions rise and secrets are spilled, Milo and Kiara are both forced to question everything they thought they knew. Does love outweigh loyalty? And if so, is it worth dying for?
