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.

Hell with him. He could put every Nefesh he employed on it and I'd still be the one who found Meryem. I didn't give a damn about coming out a hero, I just didn't trust anyone else to care as much. 


Adam, Levi, I was done getting screwed over by the men in my life. Not that Levi was in my life. Not anymore. The one good thing that had come out of this.
