Hades Castle Trilogy Series by C.N. Crawford

In Dovren, even the angels sin. Most nights, I dance and laugh with friends till the morning birds start to sing. But then disaster strikes. A sinfully sexy angel strides in to my favorite dance hall and compels me to work for him--in Hades Castle. Sure, I always wanted to see the inside of the ancient fortress that looms over the city. But the fallen angel is a brutal tyrant--and I think he killed my sister. Now, he wants me to pretend to be his wife. Instead, I plan to assassinate him... moreIn Dovren, even the angels sin. Most nights, I dance and laugh with friends till the morning birds start to sing. But then disaster strikes. A sinfully sexy angel strides in to my favorite dance hall and compels me to work for him--in Hades Castle. Sure, I always wanted to see the inside of the ancient fortress that looms over the city. But the fallen angel is a brutal tyrant--and I think he killed my sister. Now, he wants me to pretend to be his wife. Instead, I plan to assassinate him. Too bad the only way to kill an angel is to seduce him. And the sensual charms of the fallen will make it hard to stay on task. But this is a battle, and he’s my beautiful enemy. We are fighting with weapons of desire, and we're both at risk of losing ourselves in this war. For readers of Laura Thalassa, Jennifer Armentraut, Sarah J. Maas, and K. F. Breene. less

The angel of death locked me in one of his castle rooms, surrounded by books and delicious food. Not bad, right? Except for the loneliness, and the lust-fueled dreams that torment me every night. Specifically, dreams of Samael. And did I mention a psychotic ghost keeps trying to kill me? Because no one else believes me about that. Now, I’m desperate to get out of the castle and hunt down the murderous Free Men who led to my imprisonment. Samael wants to destroy them, too... moreThe angel of death locked me in one of his castle rooms, surrounded by books and delicious food. Not bad, right? Except for the loneliness, and the lust-fueled dreams that torment me every night. Specifically, dreams of Samael. And did I mention a psychotic ghost keeps trying to kill me? Because no one else believes me about that. Now, I’m desperate to get out of the castle and hunt down the murderous Free Men who led to my imprisonment. Samael wants to destroy them, too. We have the same goal, but don't trust each other. When distrust shifts into passion, it only makes things more complicated. Despite what we feel, we’re destined to be enemies. If we can’t rewrite our fates, we will lose each other forever--and one of us will end up dead. Book two in the trilogy. less

I'm struggling with my evil side—the demon known as Lilith—and only Samael can help me. Unfortunately, he thinks we're dangerous for each other—just because we murdered each other in past lives. And even worse, he believes he has to marry a mortal to keep me safe. A genuinely terrible mortal woman, I might add. But with the Free Men growing in power, we must join forces to stop their evil army... moreI'm struggling with my evil side—the demon known as Lilith—and only Samael can help me. Unfortunately, he thinks we're dangerous for each other—just because we murdered each other in past lives. And even worse, he believes he has to marry a mortal to keep me safe. A genuinely terrible mortal woman, I might add. But with the Free Men growing in power, we must join forces to stop their evil army. As we journey through Albia searching for them, we are drawn even closer together, bound by desire and our twisted love. As far as I can tell, one of two things will happen: either we will overcome our past, and defeat the Free Men together. Or our dark history will have us turning into monsters and tearing each other to pieces. I'm hoping for the first one. less
