Seduced by Shadows

Jessa Slade, . . Signet Eclipse, $7.99 (387pp) ISBN 978-0-451-22828-4

Slade's debut presents a dark and dense supernatural conflict with high stakes in a world where demons and angels possess humans and use them as tools in the unending fight between heaven and hell. After an accident leaves Sera Littlejohn crippled and in constant pain, a seductive stranger promises to make her whole again. She has no idea it's a demon whose price includes sharing her body and granting her supernatural powers. Ferris Archer, also possessed, has met many demon-ridden men, but he's shocked to find a woman in the same position. Now he must determine if her new demon is repentant and willing to fight for good, or if he will have to kill her to banish an evil spirit. All that's missing from this rich crossover urban fantasy is a little more romantic tension. (Oct.)
