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

I hastily stuffed the book on the shelf and scrambled to my feet. Solid as the room was, he remained a flickering figure. There didn't seem to be a bow tie on today's agenda but I got the distinct impression his jacket had patches on the elbows. 


I twirled a finger around the room. "I expected more dripping candles and a chandelier made of skulls for Chariot's evil lair." 


His brows knitted together and then he barked a laugh. "You think I'm Chariot?" 


"Your opening monologue was straight out of some grade B henchman playbook, you took me to a grove with an almond tree, both associated with Asherah, and you warned me off being a Jezebel." 


"With good cause. This insanely misguided deduction of yours confirms that you need to spend more time learning to be a detective and much less time playing around with this magic. You're not fit to have it." 


"Not fit" sounded suspiciously like he cared who was worthy. "Fuck balls, are you Team Jezebel?"
