He saved me from abduction. But he can't save me from a broken heart.

When Aurora accidentally triggers the wrath of the terrifying Guardians, only the quick thinking of an arrogant stranger saves her life. But Gabe is no ordinary guy. He's a lethal archangel, and in his world his power is absolute and deadly reputation legendary. She needs to go home, not just because she doesn't belong in the realm of immortals, but because the longer she's with Gabe, the harder she's falling for him.

And angels don't fall in love with mortals.

I'm a mercenary for hire. If the price is right, I'll do anything. Anything but fall in love again.

Betrayed by humans countless centuries ago, Gabe doesn't trust any of them. But there's something irresistible about the way Aurora questions his every word and refuses to accept she can never return to her own world. He's pledged to keep her safe, not in his bed. Yet her touch is electrifying and the closer they get, the more he craves her.

But he's an archangel, and she's only a fragile human. So why can't he get her out of his mind?

As danger stalks them, a devastating secret threatens to destroy everything they've ever believed in. But with time running out before the Guardians strike, the only way to survive might be the one thing that tears them apart forever.

"A sexy and captivating read... which had me hooked from the first page."
