David is very young in angel terms even though it's been over 50 years since his transformation. He's a "made" not "born" angel, yet he embraces his duty in protecting the world and fighting evil. During the rescue of his mentor, the angels receive help from a mermaid who has darkness within her. David feels an immediate connection that quickly compels him to become her keeper. To his dismay, this approach does not go over well with her. Convincing her to permit him to protect her by becoming part of her world may prove to be more than the angels themselves will allow. At a very early age, Mina's lack of solidarity with her family forced her into a lonely existence. Protecting herself is a way of life and she's become quite proficient at counting on no one but herself. Mina's duty to the only caring family member she's destined to protect is also the reason the forbidden angel David is pushing his presence into her world and existence. She only hopes the decision to maintain her secrets will keep them safe by not putting power into the wrong hands, which can only mean destruction and bring an unfortunate end to the hope of ever being loved. A WITCH'S BEAUTY is another masterpiece from Joey W Hill, full of riveting storylines and complicated relationships in a world where everything is possible. I just cannot get enough of her writing style. A perfect read!

SUMMARY

Mina is the daughter of an unholy union—a mermaid taken by one of the malevolent Dark Ones. While helping to rescue Prime Legion Commander Jonah, she exposed herself as a potentially dangerous weapon, susceptible to the darkness in her own blood. Now, for the general good, Jonah has angels watching over her…

Though Mina is resistant to being protected, her attitude begins to change when David, the human-born angel, is awarded the duty. Looking into his eyes, she can sense that he too knows what it means to fight the darkness within. But—as their passion threatens to take over—will it lead them to Heaven or Hell?
