Synopsis (Goodreads):

Zhubaal, fallen angel assistant to the Grim Reaper, has spent decades searching for the angel he loved and lost nearly a century ago. Not even her death can keep him from trying to find her, not when he knows she’s been given a second chance at life in a new body. But as time passes, he’s losing hope, and he wonders how much longer he can hold to the oath he swore to her so long ago…

As an emim, the wingless offspring of two fallen angels, Vex has always felt like a second-class citizen. But if she manages to secure a deal with the Grim Reaper — by any means necessary — she will have earned her place in the world. The only obstacle in the way of her plan is a sexy hardass called Z, who seems determined to thwart her at every turn. Soon it becomes clear that they have a powerful connection rooted in the past…but can any vow stand the test of time?

Thoughts on Z: You gotta love a fallen angel with a heart of gold. Okay, maybe that was stretching it. Z definitely has morals, but he also still does his part in helping Azagoth keep things running smoothly. And sometimes those things are of the dangerous, bloody kind.

That said, Z also has to come to accept that time moves on. Meaning, his lady love isn't the same angel she was before. Literally. She's NOT the same person. She's gone through a reincarnation and the ties that bound her to Z have stretched.

Frankly, Vex is everything Laura wasn't. She's deadly and driven and she has a handful of souls she needs to unload before they tear her apart. GOOD TIMES!

I'm loving these underworld stories. These fallen aren't all sweetness and light, but they do know how to treat their ladies right. You know, between the torture and eviscerations. *slow thumbs up*
