Aramael gritted his teeth until his jaw ached. “Then know this, too, Dominion,” he snarled. “Know that I hate you for what you’ve done. Almost as much as I hate him.”
Linda Poitevin
lives just outside Canada’s capital, Ottawa, with her husband, three daughters, and a varied collection of animals. In her spare time she gardens (organically), cans, freezes the family’s winter fruit and vegetable supply, knits (basically), crochets (better), and starts way more projects than she ever finishes. Fortunately, that doesn’t hold true for her books. She loves spending time with her family, having coffee with friends, walking by the river, and watching thunderstorms . . . in about that order.

Dear Reader,
When I began writing the first book in the
series, I had no idea that I was starting a series—or even that I was writing an urban fantasy.
, you see, was supposed to be a single-title paranormal romance. But you know what they say about the best laid plans of mice and men . . . and, apparently, of writers.
As I was writing the first draft of the story, a chance conversation with a friend led me to do a little research, which led to a lot more research and a little more conversation, and so on. Before I knew it, what had begun as a relatively narrow idea had grown and evolved beyond anything I had ever expected. I had taken the rich mythology of angels, built an entire Heaven and Hell around them, and then, in
, brought them into conflict with our already fragile human world.
Now we find ourselves here, at book 3.
is by far the darkest of the three novels, and if I’ve done my job as well as I hope, the most heart- wrenching. The war between Heaven and Hell is upon us, and the choices that have to be made—by Alex, by Seth, by Aramael . . . even by the One—are nothing short of awful. The consequences, equally so.
And where does that leave you, dear reader? About to embark on one hell of a ride, I hope, so hang on tight . . . and enjoy!
Warmly,
Linda
