From USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author,
Emma Scott, comes an emotional paranormal love story of passion, sacrifice, and
the soul-deep love of a lifetime...more than one.
Shy, introverted Lucy Dennings lives a quiet little life in
New York City, working for a nonprofit and keeping to herself. Every afternoon,
she goes home to her empty apartment and Edgar, her houseplant, and every
night, she loses herself in the pages of her beloved romance novels. Her lonely
heart seeks solace in tales of passionate, enduring, all-consuming love, but
more and more, Lucy feels she's not just reading for pleasure but searching for
her a lost piece of herself in the pages. As if she once touched something
beautiful but it's been ripped away.
Until one day Lucy discovers a dead body in the alley behind
her apartment. Even if it's too late, her first instinct is to help.
Her second is to run.
Because
the dead body isn't so very dead, and suddenly, her little world isn't so
little but one in which dreams feel like memories, "inner demons"
actually lurk in dark alleys, and a beautiful creature of darkness with amber
eyes and wings like night might hold the key to what her heart has been aching
for...if she doesn't fall down the path of eternal damnation first.
Will there be a Happily Ever 'After'?
BUY THE BOOK TO FIND OUT! ☺
But the story itself - while still too weird and paranormal for my usual tastes... it was still very adorable and sweet and heartbreaking and funny.
I really liked reading it.
And we even get a second book with this 'buddy' of Casziel's ... I'm really hoping I already know who he'll fall for! GIMME!
Emma Scott writes romances with flawed characters, characters with artistic hearts: builders, poets, and writers of various makes and models. Emma loves to write book lovers; those who have found refuge, companionship, and escape in books, much as we all do in real life. She digs realism, honesty, authenticity in storytelling. She also loves to write about enduring love, soul-deep love, in as real a setting as possible, but with big smooshy HEAs. Emma believes in diversity, open-mindedness, and inclusion. She adores sweetness mixed with steam, love conquering all, and above all, hope. Love always wins.
