These angels aren't your grandmother's chubby-cheeked cherubs. Be not afraid...

A deserter from heaven's wars, flipping burgers on earth to stay incognito. A demon who can only save his angelic lover's life by ripping him away from heaven's light forever. A guardian angel who makes a deal with the devil to end the life of his human charge.

Winged messengers, divine protectors, heavenly warriors... angels can wear many faces, and not all those faces are friendly. In these six standalone urban fantasy stories, heaven's emissaries serve the light by holding the darkness at bay—and find both light and darkness within themselves.

This collection contains the following stories:

Higher Justice

Be Not Afraid

A Spark of Light

The Coward's Way

Pure Wicked Heart

These Long and Winding Roads
