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 could keep Miles. However, even if I was pissed at Arkady, he'd been my friend, not Levi's, so Montefiore had no business going to movies with him, regardless of Arkady's relationship with Miles. As for Priya and Rafael? They were right out as anything other than Levi's professional acquaintances.  


I calmed down with my alphabetizing technique. 


Asphyxiation, bludgeoning, choking, decapitation... my spirits were lifting already. "Is this or is this not a work meeting?" I said. "Because I have things to do." 


"That's right. Your noble calling leaves little room for relationships." Levi tugged his cuffs straight.  


"And yet, how nice to be a man of leisure and have all the time in the world for them." 


Miles and Arkady shot me displeased looks at insulting Levi, but Priya and Rafael covered smiles, which cheered me up immeasurably.
