Sweet Peril - Paperback

by Wendy Higgins (Author)

Fans of Cassandra Clare's Mortal Instruments series will be drawn to Wendy Higgins's sexy, thrilling Sweet Evil series.

Sweet Peril focuses on the battle between light and dark, good and evil, within Anna Whitt, the child of a guardian angel mother and a demon father. Anna promised herself she'd never do the work of her father--polluting souls. She'd been naive to make such a claim. Haunted by demon whisperers, Anna does whatever she can to survive, even if it means earning an unwanted reputation as her school's party girl. And all the while there's gorgeous bad-boy Kaidan Rowe, the son of the Duke of Lust, plaguing her heart and mind.

Anna discovers it is her fate to banish demons from the earth, and save the other Nephilim from their dark destiny. Until then, Anna and Kaidan must put aside the issues between them, overcome the steamiest of temptations yet, and face the ultimate question: is loving someone worth risking their life?

• Angels and Demons: As the daughter of a guardian angel and a demon, Anna is torn between two worlds. To survive among her enemies, she must embrace a darker, party-girl reputation she despises.
• Slow Burn Tension: He's the son of the Duke of Lust, the one boy she's supposed to stay away from. But Kaidan Rowe is everywhere she turns, and overcoming the temptation to be with him might be the deadliest battle of all.
• A High-Stakes Destiny: Anna is fated to banish all demons from the earth, but fulfilling her destiny could mean sacrificing the person she loves most.
• Angsty Paranormal Romance: Perfect for fans of Cassandra Clare and forbidden love stories filled with thrilling action, steamy tension, and epic stakes.

When an unexpected lost message from the angels surfaces, Anna finds herself traveling the globe with Kopano, son of the Duke of Wrath, in an attempt to gain support of fellow Nephilim and give them hope for the first time. It soon becomes clear that whatever freedoms Anna and the rest of the Neph are hoping to win will not be gained without a fight.
