A Cold Day in Hell - Life is Hell, #5

Juniper Lake, the place I'm serving my time while Heaven decides my fate.

I'm Hadassah Engel, angel on probation for sharing my power with an exile from Heaven.

I took a risk helping my brother save a demon, and my punishment is hell on Earth. If the suspense of waiting for Heaven's verdict doesn't kill me, Malakhi's chosen family just might.
I'm not trying to be rude, but I'm from Heaven, and they're… not. I'd rather not stain my perfection with their morally gray shenanigans.

Still, I hate the disappointment radiating from my brother every time I reject his family's efforts to include me. Which is the reason I make a half-hearted attempt to connect with Jezebel, knowing she'll reject my efforts. I can say I tried and go back to my solitary days. Technicalities are a beautiful thing.

When my plan backfires and Jezebel sticks to me like gum on the bottom of a shoe, I find myself on the run with her in an effort to help her escape a past she's kept hidden from everyone. If I can keep her safe, maybe it'll mend the rift between me and Mal's family. They'd be livid if I stood by and left one of their own in danger.

Talk about instant regret. No good deed goes unpunished, as they say. Jezebel is abrasive and annoying af, but now I'm stuck with her.

Except the more I discover about the reclusive dog shifter, the more my heart thaws. She's been through hell and back, but hasn't let it break her.

When Jezebel disappears without a trace, I've got a decision to make. Am I willing to sacrifice my life in paradise for love?
