Ajax Petrakos is one of seven Spartan warriors who became
immortal when they accepted a deal with a god to protect
humankind. But after 2500 years of fighting and living a
solitary existence with only his brothers in arms, Ajax is
bored and tired of answering to a higher power.
Unfortunately, that higher power is asking Ajax to travel
to Savannah, Georgia, to locate Shayanna Angel, the woman
promised to him long ago by their oracle. The scene he
comes up on as he arrives at his destination of the
beautiful woman and a demon is one of awe and urgency.
Shay Angel's grief for her beloved mother is all-consuming,
yet the letter she keeps in her pocket changes her
understanding of who her mother really is. Shay is always
trying to get into the family business of demon hunting,
but both her mother and brothers claim that since their
ability to see demons only runs in the male side, it's too
dangerous for her to go on the hunt. But Shay has a secret
and it guides her to the local cemetery to meet a demon.
What she finds is a black-winged angel.
What an exciting beginning to this new Gods of Midnight
series! Very well-done by the talented Deidre
Knight. I loved it!
Eternity has become a prison for Ajax Petrakos. Centuries
after he and his Spartan brothers made their bargain for
immortality, Ajax struggles to maintain his warrior’s
discipline. His only source of strength is his hope that
he will soon meet the woman once foretold to him—the other
half of his soul, Shay Angel.
Ajax searches for his destined mate on the haunted streets
of modern-day Savannah, but he isn’t the first to find
her. Shay, the youngest of a powerful demon-hunting clan,
can see the monsters that stalk the steamy Southern night—
an ability that draws the deadly attention of Ajax’s worst
enemy.
As she and Ajax race to solve a chilling prophecy—one that
could spell Ajax’s death if they don’t succeed—a fated
passion arises, threatening to sweep away everything in
its path.
