About

VOLUME 1: ASHEN DAWN Vertigo has always known he was different. Stronger. Faster. Capable of wielding the fire that burns within his veins. As Commander's most elite soldier, he's never questioned his place—until the day a silver-haired woman with lightning at her fingertips tries to kill him. She calls herself an angel, names him half-demon, and shatters everything he thought he knew about himself. Kaelan, Angel of Chaos, has spent centuries hunting demons and half-breeds alike. Yet when a bargain with Commander and his mysterious agenda requires her to work alongside her enemy, she begins to question the ancient war that has defined her existence. Forced to work together to stop a corrupt warlord's human trafficking operation, they form an uneasy alliance. But while they battle external threats, an even greater danger looms: in the angelic realm, a rogue angel prepares to unlock an ancient artifact with the power to reshape reality itself. When their mission spirals into chaos, and with enemies closing in on all sides, they'll need to decide: are they enemies, reluctant allies, or something neither of them dared imagine? VOLUME 2: CRIMSON BLAZE RISING Vertigo never asked to be caught in the middle of a celestial conflict. As a half-demon mercenary still coming to terms with his supernatural heritage, all he wants is to understand the powers surging through his veins.  But when Kaelan—the angel who once hunted him—reveals that demons are rebuilding the Phantasma, a weapon capable of targeting and destroying angels, he has no choice but to follow her into the heart of darkness. Infiltrating the demon realm wasn't part of Vertigo's plan, but he refuses to let Kaelan face this threat alone.  Disguised and vastly outnumbered, they navigate a world where half-breeds like Vertigo are treated as worthless and angels are hunted for sport. What begins as a simple reconnaissance mission quickly spirals into a desperate struggle for survival as they're caught in the crossfire of a deadly power struggle between rival demonic factions. But the demon world holds dark secrets and darker temptations. When Vertigo is captured and subjected to horrific experiments, he emerges changed. More powerful. More dangerous. More demon than human. As Kaelan struggles with her own demons—both literal and figurative—their growing partnership is tested by treacherous allies, sadistic enemies, and their own conflicted feelings for each other.  The clock is ticking, the flames are rising, and Vertigo's control is slipping...
