But when a desperate letter from her ex, Lucas—a warlock with a shadowy past—arrives, her fragile peace is shattered. Unable to abandon him, Alex sets off for Brazil with her bonded mated and the snarky demon Corgi, Argo, to rescue Lucas's sister from the clutches of a ruthless vampire Master. Through the wild and colorful streets of Sao Paolo and the lush jungles of the Brazilian countryside, the group gains new allies and faces nightmarish monsters at every twist and turn. With every step, they all grow closer; even Argo stops giving Lucas a hard time, and Alex finds herself torn between her unresolved feelings for the fire-wielder and her deepening love for Finn. Then, when a desperate escape uncovers a sinister prophecy binding the three of them, Alex must confront the true source of her growing power and passion—one darker than she ever imagined. As unforeseen betrayals and revelations cloud the path and threaten those she loves, will Alex’s heart guide her to a new destiny, or will it lead to catastrophic consequences? Can she master the darkness within, or will it consume them all? And does a girl really have to choose? less

Too much pain, too much death, too much loss.If Finn wanted to bring Hell to its knees to get her out, he’d better hurry because there might not be a Hell left when she was done with it.
