Alexia Vanderbilt, no, that's not her real name, she changed it. She was tired of the sympathetic looks she kept receiving from everyone at Meridian College. Yes, she was brutally raped by her own father years ago and he killed her mother while he was drunk driving but that wasn't the only reason she decided to change her name and transfer to Hillview University. Her best friend, Bella King, was there, and that was a good enough reason. Bella went through her own experience that caused Alexia and her to grow closer together. Her mother is an alcoholic and her father is a drug addict. They practically raised one another. It's no wonder Alexia can't wait to join Bella at HU, she is soon to regret this decision when she meets Andrew Scott. No matter what Alexia does to let go of her traumatic past, it always seems to creep up on her, preventing her to think normal thoughts and run away from the feelings she is having about Andrew. Maybe she's just too damaged for love?

Andrew Scott comes from a wealthy family of parents who own a chain of celebrity-visited hotels. He also plays sports and is the star jock; like a typical and cliche jock, he is a ladies' man who is known to be with every girl for the night, only to throw her away at the curb after. When he sets his eyes on Alexia, he's feeling feelings that he has never felt before in a girl. He doesn't know it but he's playing with her heart and her mind.

Apart from dealing with boys and her thoughts, Alexia and Bella meet a hooded figure who tells them their parents were a type of demons, Reapers, who made a deal with the devil to turn their family human. The devil agreed, if they continued to do their work as Reapers. When Alexia's mom starts having human feelings and doesn't do her Reaper duties, the hooded figure comes after Alexia to drag her back to hell to replace her dead mother. After all, the universe needs to remain in balance.

In the small college town of Greyheart, Meadow Marsden grew up under the weight of being the Sheriff's Daughter. That is until her Father died of a mysterious and very random heart attack. It's been a year since he died and Meadow is left picking up the pieces. She now wasn't just the town Sheriff's daughter whose Mother took off when she was only three, instead, she's the daughter of the late Sheriff and, technically, an orphan. Without her Dad, Meadow is coasting through the final semesters of college and trying to keep her mental capacity together. That is until she stumbles across an exquisite and exotic ring. It's not the design of the ring that makes it stand out the most, but the fact that it produces a beautiful neon blue hue and when worn, Meadow discovers she can see the dead. But not just any dead, it allows her to see the victims of similar fates as her Dad's. Mysterious heart attacks with little to no traces of heart-related issues prior. Of all the dead visitors the ring brings, Meadow quickly finds out that the ghosts are the last of her worries. Instead, her main and only concern is the person who claims the ring is his and he lost it. Hayze. The son of Hades, the God of the Underworld. Hayze claims the ring does more, it's a sentencing for souls, a talisman used to keep Hades's powers under control. Hades is away on vacation and has entrusted the ring to his only son. Meadow's only chance at seeing her Dad again and getting the truth about what happened to him is with that ring, but Hayze isn't leaving the world of the living without it. Even when the creatures seeking to take control of the ring appear. Meadow's in a fight for her life, the truth, and the acceptance that maybe everything she knew about herself isn't what she thought it was. With the odds against her, she can only lean on Hayze, but how do you trust a man known for the games he plays?
