James is a monster. Not that he minds; he's never known any alternative. Disgusted by him and his shortcomings, he is rejected by his own kind and is forced to leave his cave. However, when he arrives in a human city, he discovers that he doesn't belong among regular folk, either. That is, until he meets Tolly.

Tolly is a bright flash of color in James' dark world. An outgoing, streetwise mortuary science student, Tolly is no stranger to the unusual, and the pair become inseparable. James offers her a perspective she's never considered, and she helps him integrate into human civilization.

However, the closer they get, the more pieces they realize they have missing. Tolly has her own demons, but James can't bring himself to move past his monstrous upbringing. Can two broken people of wildly different species manage to fix each other?

But when she moves to Green Grove, Kansas, a place where the church bells never ring, Irene quickly realizes that those "hallucinations" might have been realer than she ever imagined. A deadly ritual, a blood contract, sinister plots... Can Irene survive them all, or has she finally managed to damn herself for good? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Irene Bridges is a mid-century American secretary trying to live a quiet, unassuming life.

When a bloody ritual goes wrong, the two are bound by an eternal contract neither can afford to break. Irene is thrust into a terrifying new world, where dark magic lurks and demons trade in favors and blood. The only thing keeping her safe is her connection to Arlothamot, but even that comes with complications. The Demon Lord is moody, stubborn, and arrogant. And don't even get Irene started on his co-workers. Together, this unlikely duo must maneuver their way through demonic politics and nefarious schemes, all while hiding one Hell of a secret. Join Irene and Arlothamot for a steamy, slow-burn romance that will leave you praying for more. TW: violence, blood, gore, death, descriptions of past substance abuse and SA
