Helena Hawthorn Book 3.5
Being a demon isn’t easy, but who else will prevent an apocalypse?
Maya hates being a demon. So when an opportunity arises to ditch her duties as a High Councillor in the Dome and return to the Human Realm, she takes it.
But what started off as a journey to see her old hunting partner and tell him her true feelings winds up in a battle to save humanity from an Archdemon Tanatos who also slipped through the Demon Gate. Before that demon becomes too strong, she must eliminate him. It may be a suicide mission, and she’ll willingly do it with the only man on her mind—Ben.
*This novella can be read as a standalone or as part of the series. It takes place during and after the Helena Hawthorn Series Book 3 (Crumbling Control).
**This story is NA (New Adult) in genre whereas the main series in YA (Young Adult).
My Review:
This may be a quick little novella, but it’s not short on conflict, passion, or intrigue. The action starts rolling as soon as the story opens, and it doesn’t stop until the very last page. I loved having this opportunity to learn more about the intricacies of the demon realm through Maya. And seeing her relationship with Ben now that they’re no longer hunter partners was both fascinating and a little heartbreaking. I can’t wait to see more of these two and learn if and how they overcome the obstacles in their path.
