Author Description

Jazzrah is an angel, banished from Heaven when he and one-third of the angels ally themselves with Bial, the leader of a glory-seeking rebellion. When they fall from above, the angels' bodies are transformed. Their wings are torn off, and for the first time, they encounter pain and the realities of life on Earth. From Cassandra Lewis's birth, Jazzrah targets her as his one-millionth victim-evidence of his allegiance to and the means to a seat at Bial's right hand. As Jazzrah plagues Cassandra, he comes to suspect there are forces preventing his triumph. A once-familiar attraction begins to challenge every evil fiber of his being. But Bial was impatient, allotting a mere five chances to claim her life before disfavoring Jazzrah. The angel puts his life-or-death strategy to play-but both his life and Cassandra's weigh in the balance.
