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.

The Jezebel Files

A firm body rushed me, knocking me to the concrete and I blinked into the stormy blue of Levi's unamused gaze.  


"You didn't happen to try and kill me with your illusion magic?" I said. "Say in a grove in an indeterminate reality?"  


His body blanketed mine. I was safe. His hands felt so right curled up against my sides, holding me like I was something precious, and cars passed as I was caught between a road and a deliciously hard place.  


My breathing kicked up when Levi turned his head to whisper in my ear, "The day you push me to a non-negotiable act of homicide, I promise you'll see my face."  


It sounded like that day might come sooner rather than later. 


I shoved him off me. "Really? I always figured you for a knife in the dark kind of guy."
