Ancient battles. Family secrets. Angels and soul-eating demons. First love is never easy.

When soul-eating demons overrun his world, Kaelis, a young seraph warrior, uses the Queen’s ring to open a portal in space and flee with the infant heir to the throne, landing on earth. Unbeknownst to him, the demon leader, Nsark, follows through the portal, determined to devour the soul of every last seraph, especially the Queen’s heir. After Kaelis hides the baby, Nsark creates the ultimate weapon by fathering a half-human, half-demon: a soul-stealer’s child.

Sixteen years later, an attractive but awkward teen named James struggles to fit in with his peers. In a last-ditch effort, he joins the school play, where he meets Lucy. Something deep draws them together, and their friendship reveals their hidden pasts: one is an angel, one is half-demon. Lucy and James find themselves pulled into an age-old war between their peoples. Hunted by relentless enemies, and grappling with deep-seated instincts and strange new powers, they must fight for their lives, their souls, and each other.

Can they overcome who they were born to be, or will one of them have to make the ultimate sacrifice for the other to survive?

About the Author

Braden can eat a full rack of ribs and drive at the same time. He enjoys reading, gardening, and long summer afternoons writing in his hammock. Braden/Brandon loves to interact with readers.

Reviewed in Australia on 3 January 2017

This was definitely one of those books that draws you in from the first page. I kept putting off reading it because I honestly new I'd finish it in a couple of hours, and didn't want it to be over.

Having read Braden's other YA novel, I was completely expecting Lucy to be the seraph child, and James to be the soulstealer's child - however, I was soon proved wrong. James is very classic and old fashioned, and called a "freak" by his fellow students. After deciding to take part in the school play, he befriends Lucinda, who is half human-half demon. Throughout the course of the novel, both teenagers fall in love, and their parents are forced to reveal their true identities. Meanwhile, Lucinda is fighting an internal battle - trying to make sure that she doesn’t harm James or have her inner-demon eat her own soul.

I could go on for days about how beautifully it was written, and how character development is definitely the author’s strong suit. The book was so engrossing, and such a page-turner - I’m so excited for the sequel!

One of the most unique and imaginative stories I have read in a long time

What a unique and imaginative story! I can honestly say I have never read a book like this before. The background, interaction, and development of the characters was superb and the story line itself was riveting. An exciting read for both Young Adults and Adults alike. I really felt connected to the characters James and Lucy - their insecurities, struggles, friendship, and love seemed believable and real. Can't wait for the second book!

Original YA fantasy book

Great compelling YA fantasy. I started reading it late at night and meant to read just a chapter or two and finally put it down for the night a few hours later at chapter 40. Original story with good likable characters. Can't wait for the sequel.

Brandon Gray has written a book that will keep readers engaged. The story which brings together humans and demons is fast-paced with interesting twists. Expertly written from different points of view, the characters are well-developed and experience both external and internal struggles with which readers can identify. The book ends leaving the reader wanting more and with the hope that good will overcome evil.
