Amazon US Kindle ** Amazon Paperback ** Amazon UK Kindle
A fallen angel with a mean streak and a mohawk, Hades has spent thousands of years serving as Jailor of the Underworld. The souls he guards are as evil as they come, but few dare to cross him. All of that changes when a sexy fallen angel infiltrates his prison and unintentionally starts a riot. It’s easy enough to quell an uprising, but for the first time, Hades is torn between delivering justice — or bestowing mercy — on the beautiful female who could be his salvation…or his undoing.
Thanks to her unwitting participation in another angel’s plot to start Armageddon, Cataclysm was kicked out of Heaven and is now a fallen angel in service of Hades’s boss, Azagoth. All she wants is to redeem herself and get back where she belongs. But when she gets trapped in Hades’s prison domain with only the cocky but irresistible Hades to help her, Cat finds that where she belongs might be in the place she least expected…

EXCERPT
The thought of
living one more day the way he’d lived the last five thousand years made him
want to throw up as he prowled the length of his crypt until he swore the soles
of his boots cried out for mercy.
Azagoth had left him
hours ago with all kinds of assurances that Cat wouldn’t be harshly punished
for what she’d done. But Azagoth’s idea of “harsh” was a lot different from
Hades’s. Well, not usually, but for Cat, definitely.
Hades just hoped
Azagoth hadn’t suspected that anything had gone on between them. Technically,
Hades hadn’t gone against Azagoth’s orders, but the Grim Reaper wasn’t a fan of
technicalities. And if he did anything to punish Cat for what Hades had done,
Hades would fight that bastard until he was too dead to fix.
Snarling, Hades
threw his fist into the wall. Never, not in his entire life, had he felt this
way about a female. Hell, he hadn’t felt this way about anything. Oh, he’d
always been passionate about meting out justice, but this was a different kind
of passion. This was an all-consuming desire to be with someone. To be
something better for that someone.
He hadn’t known Cat
for long, but in their brief time together, he’d shared things he’d always kept
private. He’d given comfort and had been comforted. He’d wanted, and he’d been
wanted back.
She wants to go
back to Heaven, idiot.
Yeah, then there was
that. The chances of going back were extremely slim, given that in all of
angelic existence, only a handful of fallen angels had been offered the
opportunity. But just the fact that she wanted to go was troubling.
Oh, he understood.
Who would choose to live in the grim darkness of the underworld when they could
flit around in light and luxury? But dammit, Cat was wanted down here. Could he
make her see that?
Closing his eyes, he
braced his forehead on the cool stone wall he’d just punched. Pain wracked him
and not just because he’d broken bones in his hand and they were knitting
together with agonizing speed. That pain was nothing compared to the ache in
his heart.
He needed to be with
Cat, but how? He supposed he could try reasoning with Azagoth. Sometimes the
guy wasn’t completely unbending. Especially now that he had Lilliana. She’d
leveled him out, had given him a new perspective on life and relationships.
But would it be
enough?
Because one thing
was certain. If Hades couldn’t have Cat in his life, then Azagoth had saved it
for nothing.
