Once, Tane du Breuil fought side by side with his immortal Templar brothers. But after he betrayed the Order, he retreated to the solitude of the homeless shelter he created. He must now prove himself as worthy to both his brethren and the archangels. Yet when his seraph walks into the Temple, he's tempted with a fate he knows he doesn't deserve.

After a brush with death, ancient-weapons specialist Hayden Thofte arrives at the hidden Templar stronghold, aware of her status as a seraph and her noble purpose. She expects to meet her intended mate and lend her sword to fight against Azazel's unholy ascension. But nothing has prepared her for the knight she encounters or the white-hot passion that flares between them.

As they fall deeper into unquenchable desire, pleasure gives way to a darker struggle. Tane's haunted by a prophecy that he will destroy the Templar. Embracing the temptation of Hayden will only guarantee that destruction, but in denying his immortal fate, he will once again betray his brethren. He's torn between saving his dying soul and denouncing the woman he cannot live without. To find salvation, he must embark on a quest against demons he can see...and those he can't. If he fails, he will damn far more than the Order. Hayden will spend eternity as Azazel's slave.
