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

I left Mrs. Hudson with a delighted Priya, who'd gotten far too attached. As soon as I had a spare minute, I'd take the puppy to the rescue shelter. I'd have to let them know that synthetic blankets made her itchy and not to separate her from her squeaky cow paramour and that her favorite flavor of doggie treat was bacon. But take her I would, because she deserved to have a settled family life. 


Levi and I walked over to Harbour Center, a tower that housed both the downtown campus of Simon Fraser University and a revolving restaurant on the top with 360° views of the city. The door to the restaurant also happened to be the entrance into Hedon from Vancouver. 


He'd illusioned himself as a blond man so we wouldn't be spotted together, or his destination tracked. 


"Slow down," I said, practically jogging to keep up with his long strides. "You're not going out for a night on the town. Best case scenario is trauma and danger in a reality that shouldn't exist."
