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

How had Levi even - I dropped my head against the wall. Miles. Of course.  


My body just wanted to sleep and I couldn't handle an angry Levi reaming me out tonight. I pushed the button again. "It's been a really long day, and - " 


"Miles told me about the book. I wanted to check if you were all right." 


I briefly closed my eyes. Not that sex was on offer, but the two of us ended up there more often than not, and I wasn't up to it tonight. I was up to a non-sexual form of comfort from Levi even less. The more our relationship developed, the more complicated it became.  


But he had come all this way. And as weird and new as it felt, we were friends now. You didn't just send a friend away like that. "Come on up."  


"You want me to leave?" Priya called from the kitchen, once I got out of the bathroom. She was washing dinner plates. 


I limped to the freezer and got a fresh ice pack. "No. I want you to crack into Gavriella's phone. It's in the lockbox."
