The war between Good and Evil has raged for millennia, with the Marked Souls caught in the middle. Now two lost souls will tip the precarious balance.

Possession by a demon cost Jonah Walker his faith, his humanity, and his wife. Once a righteous missionary, he endures immortality with nothing but a body for battle and a bent for retribution. But his last devastating fight left him wounded beyond healing, and his only chance to redeem his soul lies with a fallen woman.

Thrust into a wicked underworld of shadows and sin, Nim Hamlin can't believe her wanton ways as the "Naughty Nymphette" enthralled a demon—and a damned saint. The world she knows doesn't deserve deliverance. But the touch of this good man's hand holds an unholy allure—and she's never been any good at resisting temptation.

As darkness gathers in the sweltering Chicago summer, Jonah and Nim must conquer the demons of their past to face even fiercer monsters in one last assault. But first they must put aside their doubts and disbeliefs and let their passion for each other burn through the shadows to ignite a furious power.

      Slade's (Forged of Shadows) latest entry in her gritty crossover urban fantasy series The Marked Souls is permeated with more sex than romance. Jonah Walker is possessed by a repentant demon that enhances his abilities and drives him to earn redemption by fighting evil spirits. He needs to help a newly-possessed woman assimilate her demon and recruit her to fight beside him, but she's not what Jonah expects. The tough and jaded Nim is an unabashed stripper who turns a few tricks on the side. She's a lover, not a fighter, and thinks superhuman strength, speed, and deadly skills will make her a star in Vegas. Jonah realizes the cheap jewelry Nim pawned is the demonic weapon needed to channel and control her powers, but now Corvus, Jonah's worst enemy, has the weapon in his hands and is determined to get the girl that goes with it. Both Jonah and Nim are physically and psychologically damaged, creating a raw overtone that permeates the complex story and deepens the tension of their push-pull attraction without overloading the angst.
