Blurb:
Life after Hell isn't
more exciting than watching football and fixing a busted pipe. Once a powerful
demon, Marc enjoys his quiet existence and a good cup of coffee. With big
ambitions to gain his master's favor, a trickster demon named Vetis shatters Marc's
peace and vows to deliver Marc's head to the fires of Hell. Not before he
destroys everything Marc cares about, of course.
Marc's power has
diminished over the years. Heaven will never grant him absolution, and he
refuses to return to Hell. Running isn't an option. The city of Carmine is his
territory. It's also home to his favorite cafe owner, Mae Hopkins. The dame has
a lovely smile, but it's her heart and soul that shine bright.
While his city burns
and his love is captured, Marc must decide to surrender or let hate and anger
fuel him to become the fearsome beast he so loathes: The Marquis. If the
Marquis rises, Vetis can be defeated and Mae saved, but Marc would be lost to
his demon forever.
