'Ripped from an orphanage for her wicked ways, Thea was trained as a seductive assassin for the nuns of the Hildegard Sisterhood and given a purpose as a Sinner: to bring balance to a world designed by men. She never expected to be brought to her knees by the arrival of an arrogant scholar from the all-male Team Saint.

'Wesley is a relentless demon hunter for the most mysterious entity in the world-the Vatican. His mission is simple: destroy evil wherever it may hide. But when he meets the sassy and smart Thea, he can't resist falling into temptation. She's the one he's searched for his entire life, but she belongs to an organization he's sworn to destroy.

'Danger, deception, and desire collide when they discover a lost prophecy has the key to saving a loved one in each of their lives-but it will only work for one.

'"Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned... I killed a man."'

'Fae can’t lie. 

'That’s the golden rule woven into the people of Elphyne, but for deaf Elf Guardian Aeron, he knows this isn’t true. Lies are told between the lines, in misdirection, and in false hope. 

'When he turns up at the Spring Court with his newfound, broken human mate in his arms, he learns the most cruelest lie of all. He is not who he thought he was. His whole life has been orchestrated… even this moment… even this new love burgeoning in his heart for a human enemy with more secrets than his own.

'Learning to trust and accept is hard for both of them, but with civil war on their doorstep, fae plotting to take them down, and the taint on the Well growing more dangerous, they have no choice but to try. Trust can only be found if they start from within. 

'Only then will they know where their true enemies lie… ' (Publication summary)
