Ajax Petrakos is one of seven Spartan warriors who became immortal when they accepted a deal with a god to protect humankind. But after 2500 years of fighting and living a solitary existence with only his brothers in arms, Ajax is bored and tired of answering to a higher power. Unfortunately, that higher power is asking Ajax to travel to Savannah, Georgia, to locate Shayanna Angel, the woman promised to him long ago by their oracle. The scene he comes up on as he arrives at his destination of the beautiful woman and a demon is one of awe and urgency.

Shay Angel's grief for her beloved mother is all-consuming, yet the letter she keeps in her pocket changes her understanding of who her mother really is. Shay is always trying to get into the family business of demon hunting, but both her mother and brothers claim that since their ability to see demons only runs in the male side, it's too dangerous for her to go on the hunt. But Shay has a secret and it guides her to the local cemetery to meet a demon. What she finds is a black-winged angel.

What an exciting beginning to this new Gods of Midnight series! Very well-done by the talented Deidre Knight. I loved it!

Book Summary

Eternity has become a prison for Ajax Petrakos. Centuries after he and his Spartan brothers made their bargain for immortality, Ajax struggles to maintain his warrior’s discipline. His only source of strength is his hope that he will soon meet the woman once foretold to him—the other half of his soul, Shay Angel.

Ajax searches for his destined mate on the haunted streets of modern-day Savannah, but he isn’t the first to find her. Shay, the youngest of a powerful demon-hunting clan, can see the monsters that stalk the steamy Southern night— an ability that draws the deadly attention of Ajax’s worst enemy.

As she and Ajax race to solve a chilling prophecy—one that could spell Ajax’s death if they don’t succeed—a fated passion arises, threatening to sweep away everything in its path.
