Prequel Novella to the upcoming dark romantasy, The Veiled Witch.

If you grew up watching Supernatural and thought, “Hm, this would be amazing with a bad-ass nun and a will-they/won’t-they dynamic with her guardian angel.”

A warrior nun and her guardian angel are trapped in a house designed to ruin them. And the only way out is heresy.” For fans of A Discovery of Witches, Serpent and Dove, Ninth House, and City of Bones.

Sister Vespera of the Scarlet Order hunts the things this world must never know exist. And she does so with her guardian angel by her side. Damiel is her protector, her weapon. He is the invisible presence she has come to know better than her own heartbeat. Which is why lately, in the quiet hours of the night, she has been sending him away. Sister Vespera has a secret her guardian must never know.

When a routine possession case leads her to an estate where the wealthy indulge in the darkest of sins, Sister Vespera will be forced to confront an evil the Church never prepared her to face. And surviving it will demand the very thing she has been hiding.
