When detective for hire, Ashira Cohen, was 13, her con artist father disappeared, leaving her with emotional scars and a limp she can't hide. But she toughened up, determined never to be played again. Is history repeating itself?

First, she's hit on the head during a stakeout, revealing a mysterious tattoo on the back of her skull. Even worse? It's a now-broken ward unleashing dangerous magic that as a Mundane, she shouldn't possess. 

Her unruly powers nearly kill her long-time nemesis, Levi, the uptight leader of the magic community. One word from him about her forbidden abilities, and everything she's built will be taken from her… by force.

The only bright spot is that Levi requires her supernatural skills, providing Ash's chance at payback and she's going to enjoy every second of it.

Series includes: Blood & Ash, Death & Desire, Shadows & Surrender, and Revenge & Rapture.

The Jezebel Files

"No," Levi said after a beat too long.  


"Bite me." Levi's disbelief was this tangible weight crowding in on me. If a potential client was giving me this bullshit, I'd have been out the door and down the elevator already. I couldn't do that with a House Head, but I was damned if I didn't want to follow company policy.  


"Find out if there have been any other sudden heart attack deaths." Levi instructed Miles and motioned for me to continue. 


I got to my magic's appearance at the aquarium, and Miles laughed when he heard about the dildo. "That might be the greatest thing I've ever heard," he said. "Next time, take photos."  


"There's not going to be a next time," Levi said. 


Miles winked at me. "You could make serious bank."  


My mouth almost fell open. Miles had a sense of humor? We hadn't had a lot of direct interactions since our camp days, but he'd always struck me as so serious.
