Paisley Nichols is happy with her pastry cafe and living in Iskander's garage apartment. She has not had a love life lately, and one day customer Rasmus Kessler comes in and asks her to coffee. When she gets home that night, she becomes very ill. It seems that Rasmus wants to move in with Paisley. She tells him she wants nothing to do with him anymore. Several days later she goes home to find that her apartment has been burned, and she has lost everything. She moves in with Iskander and finds out that she can release demons that have been captured by witches. Nichodemus, Iskander's boss, meets Paisley and asks for her help. He also says that she will be under his protection. Rasmus will not give up and keeps trying until the end to make Paisley his own.

There are lots of things going on in this book such as Paisley dealing with changes in her life and Iskander coming to terms with his lost love and new love. There were no lags in the story, it flowed seamlessly from beginning to end. For me it was a page turner; I could not wait to see what was going to happen in the end. Lots of good minor characters in Kynan, Emily, Carson and Nichodemus. Nice cover to the book and fits with the storyline. Ms. Jewel is a great storyteller and a master in her genre. I highly recommend this book.
