As a gun for hire who has followed in his father's Italian Mafia affiliated footsteps, he has left a bloody trail of bodies in his wake. Since taking his first life at age fourteen, he has been holding a gun in one hand, a knife in the other, and hatred in his heart. He's so good at being wicked, he's never been caught red-handed. After years of grooming and experience, he is the newest Seraph of Mortality - the executioner. One fateful evening, however, things change. He meets his match. A beautiful woman who can see right through him. Andrea Ellison is an herbalist, palm reader, and Empathic Sensitive. She's also the wrong woman to cross.
