Lorelei didn't watch the normalcy of her life vanish quietly when Jared Kovach arrived in town. No, the ordinary, everything she knew about her day to day reality was smashed into a million sparkling lights. Now she is left in the dark... and the strange.
Brooklyn, Lorelei's best friend, is bent on helping Lorelei wield her supernatural abilities, but Lorelei can't ignore the fact that in her body is also the growing presence of Satan's second in command. Also hard to ignore is her budding new crush on the Angel of Death.
If only the drama stopped there, but no, something malevolent lurks around the corner, and has come to town specifically to strangle the life from Lorelei. Yes the gang has a champ with supernatural powers, but what will happen when this hero changes sides in the middle of the challenge? Can this motley crew capture one of the most power beings in history? Can they bring about Jared's return, before it is too late... for all of them?
