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!
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?
