Cursed by his vengeful ex-lover eight hundred years ago, fallen angel Tamatsu lost not only his voice but much of his considerable power, and became consumed by ravenous hungers for food, sex, violence, and other earthly pleasures. Now he's ready to make a deal with his former flame: the return of his voice in exchange for the location of her missing queen.

But the Fates have a way of throwing monkey wrenches into the best-laid plans. After so many years outside of the elf realm, the unflinching Noelle isn't sure she can remember what happened to his voice or what made her mad enough to curse Tamatsu in the first place.

When the magic tethering the two feuding warriors causes old passions to flare, Tamatsu must decide if being intimate with Noelle again is worth exacerbating his insatiable appetites. And can Noelle truly find a way to make amends with the only person who's capable of balancing her?

It's not a match made in heaven, but they could make a hell of a team.
