Taking sides could be deadly...
The war between good and evil is on, and nephilim Emma Jane is caught in the middle. Both sides want her working for them. And both sides know how to make her suffer if they don't like her choice. Now someone has raised the stakes and is using innocent humans as pawns in the ultimate fight for humanity...
Emma Jane isn’t sure which side is responsible. What she used to believe about right and wrong, good and evil—even what she used to believe about herself—is changing. Because whether she likes it or not, the final reckoning comes down to Emma Jane Hellsbane. And she'll have to choose between humanity...and the man she was never supposed to love.
"What if, in the end, I never really had a choice? What if, because of my father, I was born to go bad?"

“Michael said—”
“Michael will say whatever he must.” He cut me
short. “His work is paramount. He is guided by divine decree. But, Emma Jane,
the truth is his mistress and he can twist and turn her to fit his needs.”
“I know.” Good God, I knew better than most
that angels take great liberty with the truth. “But he’s not lying about this,
or twisting things. I can…I can feel it. You can go home again if you want it.”
“I can’t. At least not by Michael’s hand
alone.”
“Eli, just listen to me—”
“It’s not up to Michael.” His broad shoulders
rose and fell with a deep sigh, and he began again. “Michael is powerful,
perhaps the most powerful of all seraphim. But he is only a seraph. My
absolution is not his to give. Only our Father can welcome me home again. No
one else.”
“And Michael has your Father’s ear,” I said.
Eli’s lips pressed into a flat line, and he
shook his head, looking away. “It’s a fool’s hope.”
“But it’s possible. All you have to do is ask
for forgiveness…and, y’know, stop sinning.” My face warmed.
He raised a brow. “Is that right? And by
sinning you mean lying with you?”
I nodded, swallowing the sudden thickness in my
throat. Just the thought of being with him, the way his tone warmed, the look
in his eyes, made my body stir. Not good if we were going to stick to that no-sinning
thing.
“And you’re all right with this? You no longer
want to share my bed?” He stepped closer.
I shrugged, pretending it was no big deal. But
what came out sounded more like desperate denial. “I mean, well…y’know…”
He stepped closer, his hands going to my hips,
and my breath caught, my heart jumping in my chest. “Eli…”
“What if I don’t want to stop?” His voice washed
over me, a soft, soothing caress. “What if there’s nothing more I want than to
have you in my bed, to feel your body next to mine?”
“You’re only saying that because you don’t
believe you can go back.” I couldn’t stop the stupid quaver in my voice. My
mouth was so dry it was hard to swallow.
His arms slipped around me, big hands splaying
at the small of my back, pulling me to him. He leaned down, whispering against
my ear. “I say that because I want you in my bed. I want to feel your body next
to mine. I want to feel my body inside of yours.”
I exhaled a shaky breath, and everything inside
me melted. “That’s not fair.”
“No. It’s not.” His breath warmed against my
neck, his lips pressing softly again and again, trailing kisses down to my
collarbone. Each touch was like gasoline on a fire, and heat flamed through me,
my mind spinning.
I knew I should pull away, make him stop. I couldn’t. I sighed, resigned
to the inevitable.
