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

My body reacted before my brain could, my fingers gripping Levi's biceps. His suit jacket was soft to the touch, but his muscles were corded steel. In my mind's eye they rippled, Levi's naked body poised above mine, and a devilish grin on his face as he thrust into me. 


Swallowing, I jerked sideways. Levi had made me believe in a foolish, wonderful future, and then taken it away, leaving this gaping emptiness. Priya was wrong about rage. It wasn't unhealthy. It was what kept me buoyant when beneath me all was dark and deadly, threatening to pull me under. 


"What the hell were you doing?" he hissed.  


I stepped back against his oaky amber scotch and chocolate magic scent, but in our time together, he'd marked me, body and soul. There was no escaping him. "Take a wild guess."  


Mrs. Hudson barreled out of the car, almost falling out in a somersault, her leash tangling between her feet in her haste to get to Levi.
