With my demon wolves secretly watching our backs, we’re unstoppable. Until the night the first rune appears on the streets. A rune that hasn’t been seen for hundreds of years, sending the Vegas supernaturals into a tailspin.

I thought I could control my fate. I thought I could send the Master of Demon Runes back to the Underworld where he belongs, but instead, I'm the one forced into a dangerous game of elimination. He pulls me into his world and promises me everything I could desire, but how can I trust him when death waits for me and my family with every step I take? I won't risk the people I love.

My sister was good, kind, loving, and the Royals of Regalia bullied her 'til she killed herself. I set foot on campus ready to right some wrongs when the most handsome bunch of stone-cold weirdos asked if I needed a little help.

At Angelview Academy, Saint Angelle is god. Trust me, I should know. I’m the girl who's watched him manipulate and ruin and break - the "nobody" he’s done all those things and so much more to.

I’m going through a bit of a rough patch. I lost my job, got kicked out of my apartment, and now I sleep under an overpass. If that wasn’t bad enough, my psychic sister is plagued with visions of my death. The last thing I needed was Sole “Sunny” Bellisario crashing through my tent.

There’s a war coming, and I’ll fight because this time my Angels...my Horsemen...my loves...are the ones who need saving.

In a world where I had no say, violence became my refuge. Nothing else mattered, not even my own life, until her: Skyler Bell. It all started the first time I heard that voice, giving me hope for tomorrow. My first love was everything all at once - consuming, maddening, forever, mine.

I’ll bring him into my loud, chaotic world and make him mine.

Decades ago, three men started a war.... Today, I win it. I had a plan. Step one: Steal the ledger. Step two: Take over Cinco City. Simple, right?

A battle rages, and only the last man standing claims victory.
