The devil isn't real, but Fae are...
Faeries are full of mischief and destruction, but they can grant wishes at a price. When Carmen gives up her soul to save her mother, she never dreamed of the day the faeries would come back to ask for a favour.
The favour?
To come back to the shadow world to stop the demon plague.

An Echo in the Mafia (Echo Reid, Reid Family Book #1)
Echo wasn't like her sisters. She knew that when people talked about the famous and fabulous Reid sisters, they weren't referring to her. Quiet, homely, plain and riddled with social anxiety that made it hard for her to leave the house, she could never have known what was about to happen, she never dreamed she'd live such an adventure. Luke Farina was the most dangerous man around- spoiled, selfish, extremely conceited- he didn't take no for an answer and always got what he wanted. He just never expected that the strange and ridiculous little Echo would be the one to say no and somehow become the one he had to have most. -- NOTE: Hi everyone! I really hope you take the time to read this story. It's already complete for the most part, in just taking it slow in publishing it. It's my first story and I'd love to hear your comments and feedback. I hope you decide to give it a chance! This is also part one of a series and I'm already midway through the next book which can't be released unless this one gets some positive feedback. Thank you and enjoy!Complete
