Morning Star (Reverse Harem Paranormal Romance)
K.M. Raya - 2020
Just, Raven. Like the bird, except my wings are much cooler. They allow me to do lots of things, namely--killing demons. That's right. Demons. I've been on my own for years now. Just me and my devilish little cat, kicking a$$ and taking names. I've spent nearly my whole life hunting the evil beasties and protecting helpless humans, but I had no idea I was being hunted right back.Remember those wings I mentioned? Yeah, well it sort of means I'm not human at all. So, after years of minding my own business, one teensy, tiny slip up brings me face to face with an elite team of beautiful, deadly celestials--guardians of the human race and punishers of demon kind. Just my luck, right? They may be easy on the eyes, but they're also grumpy as hell, hot-headed and full of themselves. Also, they just so happen to claim that I belong to them. Well, to their race, that is. But getting that distinction through their immortal heads is another challenge.After getting kidnapped by these strange men, I'm forced to plead my case to their archangels, but not before I'm faced with an unexpected betrayal and deadly prejudice among the other celestials. Now I have no choice but to prove my allegiance to good rather than evil when my lineage is suddenly called into question. There's a darkness living inside of me that's begging to show its face. If I'm not careful, I just might welcome it.This is a Reverse Harem Urban Fantasy. 18+ due to violent themes, moral ambiguity, depictions of torture, a healthy amount of swears, and VERY graphic sexual content. HEA guaranteed.
