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

Levi picked up his bag and I spoke my next words to his back. "I'm sorry for thinking that you'd strike back at him in that manner." 


"You thought this attempted murder was in retaliation for something Isaac had done to me?" 


He prowled toward me. "No, Ash. You said there was a connection to him." 


"Huh? Ew. No. I didn't think you were working on his behalf." 


"Good to know I have standards. Low bar though, don't you think?" 


"I was doing my job. How about you run along and do yours?"  


He saluted me, the bag hefted on his shoulder, but as he passed he briefly caught my hand. "What took me off the list?" He ran his other hand over his jaw that showed a faint dusting of dark scruff, his eyes trained on me. 


"A feather from a set of costume wings." 


"Ah, yes. My views on the use of props while committing murder are rather well known." He snorted and dropped my hand.
