Sixteen-year-old Ashling Shields has had her whole life turned upside down for the second time in two years. As a freshman she was the sole survivor of a harrowing disaster. Now, in the summer before junior year, her life is once again spiralling out of control. 

The deadly force hunting her draws closer every day, and being entangled in the affairs of a world famous rock band doesn’t make life any easier - especially when there’s good reason to believe the band members are literally angels and demons. 

She’ll have to take control of her own destiny - before her destiny takes control of her.

Lullaby

“Felix,” I say, the sound of his name sweet as honey on my lips. 


“Took you long enough,” he says, pulling me closer. His crooked smile is wickedly dark, and I can just make out the scent of the forest on him – midnight pine, icy moss, night-blooming flowers. 


Mystical and arcane – a deep dark mystery that has me firmly in its grasp. 


“What are you doing here?” I ask, trying to detach myself from him, but finding that somehow, I’m unable to. 


I have no control of my limbs, and my hand refuses to unclasp his; my feet glide gracefully over the grass in a perfect waltz. 


“You really thought I’d miss tonight?” He asks. 


“I told you not to come,” I say. “This is seriously risky. If anyone recognized you…” 


“Relax,” he says. “That’s what the masks are for.” 


“Don’t tell me…” I trail off, turning to where the rest of the masked group were dancing earlier.
