Synopsis:

Born of a Navajo healer and a high-level prince of Hell, Fatal is forced to return to her mother’s tribe to study their healing arts, away from demon hands. But, with her tutelage comes cruel segregation and disrespect. When her life suddenly comes under demon attack, she’s cast away from the only home she knows. Exiled, Fatal sets out armed with her knowledge and fighting skills to annihilate any threat against her.
Oracle by birth, Prince Orobus rules as his Liege commands, until intel comes his way providing him with images of his mate’s participation at a seedy club, well known for it’s sexual domination fight pit. Incensed, he’s thrust in the fight of his life—to claim his woman. Come Hell or high water, he will take care of what is rightfully his, even if it means making her face both sides of her heritage and teaching her there is no shame.

Review:

When I first picked up this book I didn't really know how much I would get into it. The book looked dark and different and I didn't realize until half way through that I was addicted. At first it was a little bit of a drag especially with the character development. I am use to my heroines to be independent, strong and calculated. That wasn't the case with Fatal. In the beginning I thought she was very childish with serious mommy and daddy issues. I know that sounds harsh but hear me out. The author did a great job in changing that idea. Fatal did evolve and by the end of this novel she had transformed into a character that I could relate to in ways. She in a way has the redeeming quality that isn't found to many times in books.

On the other side of interesting characters is Orubus. I still believe I mispronounced his name the entire book but it didn't change the fact that I had a new book boyfriend for the past three days. The cover did not convey his image like I had thought it in my mind, which was a shame. He's very swoon worthy ladies. He is to me the ultimate alpha male (demon category) that I have found. If you enjoy dominant, pushy male characters than he is the one for you. Readers will definitely appreciate the author's development of this hunk. But I hope they know that not all actions are what they seem. You can have a male that acts tough and hard but in the end, the reasons behind his actions were completely different.

Add both of these characters together and you get some steam that I don't know if a fire extinguisher could contain. Both these characters act and are written like they are not only destined but fated to be together in the face of a literal hell like dimension lingering over them or should I say around them.

The author, Mahalia Levey, did a very fine job in writing this novel. There were not a ton of grammatical errors that I saw and trust me that can definitely take away from any good story-line. The details were fantastic and she really made scenes come alive in the details she gave. All in all I'd say she definitely captivated this reader. So I have given her novel 4.5 stars out of 5. I left off the other 0.5 only because like I said at the beginning I was half tempted to put it down and also the cover needs a little sprucing up. Great job though.
