"his romantic urban fantasy is absolutely incredible"
In life, Aspico half-demon and witch master of the black
arts Eve Levine ran away when she realized she was pregnant
with the heir of a cabal sorcerer. Three years after Eve's
death, she haunts the home where her daughter Savannah
lives, hoping to find a way to breakthrough into the mortal
world. Savannah's father Kris who lives on the same ghostly
plane as Eve believes the woman he loves most should get her
own life preferably with him and forget about making contact
with their daughter. He believes Eve needs something
worthwhile to do so that she won't constantly looking in on
Savannah. The fates have a very special job for Eve to perform. They
need her to capture a Nix who escaped from a supposedly
secure level of hell. A Nix is a very dangerous supernatural
being because it provides the human it possesses the chance
to act on her darkest desires. Some of the most notorious
female killers were possessed by a Nix. While Eve is chasing
after the supernatural creature, the Nix discovers who
really matters to Eve and intends to destroy them unless Eve
can find a way to send her back to Hell. This romantic urban fantasy is absolutely incredible. It is
innovatively original and the storyline is a magical
creation. Eve learns that her tie is to Kris and she must
stop visiting her daughter. She intends to succeed in her
quest but she might have to give up her lover to save those
she loves in the mortal realm. Kelley Armstrong's latest
work is refreshing, exciting, and a great work of urban
fantasy. Harriet Klausner
