It&#8217;s a hot paranormal romance featuring unlikely alpha heroes who will make you laugh, cry, and swoon.

Forced to live as humans they&#8217;re left with no power and no weapons while a secret society quietly plots Lucifer&#8217;s demise. For these big, bad demons, adjusting to life as humans, is, well, harder than Hell!<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: left;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\"

As an extreme athlete, he had fame, glory, and more pleasure than he probably deserved. He was a freakin&rsquo; rock star! Being exiled in a broken human body is his worst nightmare. Stripped of his powers and unable to fight, he&rsquo;s consumed by frustration, counting the seconds until he can go home. His future looks bleak until he meets a sexy, soft-hearted physical therapist who heals much more than his shoulder. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Physical therapist Micki Glass knows something about damaged people. She&rsquo;s been struggling to get over her ex for three long years when this crazy man crashes into her life. He&rsquo;s crude and intense but irresistibly charming. With his feral eyes and sexy smile, Koivu takes her on a sensual joyride that makes her feel like a woman again. As their affair heats up, she craves him like oxygen until she discovers what he really is. With more than her heart on the line, can she accept his past and love him for who he is now? <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>The day of reckoning is looming closer and the sacrifices have begun.
