Rating: 4 out of 5

Rains opens her novella with a terrific hooking line, "Marc still had the power to smite new demons. Just barely."Right away I was drawn in by the supernatural curiosity of my heart and the author blanketed me in a powerful story of a mature love and the internal struggle between light and dark.Marc, the main character in book one of her 13th Floor series, is well thought out and has a dark twisted side that wants to rear its head despite the human morality that has opened up his heart to a sweet older woman named Mae. Mae's faith in Marc is truly remarkable as she faces his deadliest side without flinching.I adored the way Rains created something new for me to enjoy. She has her own unique style and I adored some of her own word choices like `demonling.'There was one realization I took away from this book and it was the idea that when you love someone, often you will do anything to keep them safe. Rains didn't disappoint that thought as Marc realized..."there was no way to escape except by breaking his heart."If you are looking for a quick read, with paranormal qualities, and a little love tied in, then you will enjoy this book.
