They believe that in the end it is she who will protect them.When Helena learns of what's going on in the world around her, she tries to save as many lives as she can. Yet to stop the carnage she must come face-to-face with another earth-bound angel and defeat him -- or die.

In the author's own words, "These are classics in my own mind." Readers beware! Some of you will be shocked by parts of this book. Vegetarians may be disturbed by turkeys on the menu, or kiddies in a witch's freezer. Others could well get excited by all the chopping, reaping and killing or be offended by the mushy poems professing love. If you prefer a little titillation, be warned, there are no refunds or compensation for bruised buttocks from the house of sin. Not put off by any of the above? Maybe just a bit by the mushy love Desensitised to violence and killing? Though the titillation might be thrilling Rhyming or not, it's all the same Sounds as if you would be game So take the plunge, if you dare Then leave a review -- it shows you care.

Would you risk everything, for salvation? Helena -- part earth-bound angel, part vampire -- is pregnant, and it's playing havoc with her unique abilities. Her usual diet of vampire blood makes her physically ill, one minute she's visible the next she's not, and she's suffering from blackouts. After yet another blackout, Helena finds herself back in Satan's clutches. This time there is no way for her to escape on her own, and a dangerous rescue mission ends with Helena going into labour prematurely. Helena's child is born and all too soon must leave her to deliver a message to the mortal world. But the last time someone was sent with a message, it didn't end well ...

What lengths would you go to for revenge? Helena is furious beyond belief. She can't forgive the angels for what they did to her, and Danizriel -- one of their own kind -- who sought only to help her. Now she's out for revenge. A coordinated blitz takes place on the solstice and thousands of vampires lay waste to the angelic host, in an attack orchestrated by Helena. In exchange for her help she receives three weapons from the time of the fall -- powerful enough to destroy archangels. With three archangels down and one to go, Helena gambles with her soul to pull off the kind of bluff that even Satan might fall for. If she loses, the devil takes it all.

With a mob contract on her head, Helena has kept a low profile, trying to survive by living off the streets. Numb with cold and near starvation, she awaits death in an abandoned house, and gets more than she bargained for, in the form of a vampire. When an angel -- Danizriel -- arrives on the scene, he is puzzled to find Helena still alive and the vampire dead. Intrigued, he shelters her and together they discover that she has become something neither of them expected. Their growing attraction is soon threatened when news of Helena's unnatural abilities quickly spreads. She becomes the target of a deadly hunt by vampires and Danizriel is placed in an impossible situation when he is told he must kill her. With overwhelming forces closing in, Helena and Danizriel face death from all directions. Who will live and who will die?
