This is a superb story with a simple but powerful what-if: What if a greater demon from Hell (Marc) hung up his horns and brimstone, settled down in a quiet town and fell in love with the owner of a cafe? Sounds cozy until another demon shows up, determined to destroy everything that Marc cares about.This is just what you'd imagine if two demons from Hell started fighting in a modern day town. Plenty of evil, destruction and fire. Rains does a fantastic job showing Marc's anguish, as he's forced back into the form of a demon, something he didn't want to be again, and certainly not let his love witness. Great characterization all round, very high quality writing and a plot that just makes you keep reading.Rains is penning a whole series of stories about non-humans that live on a somewhat magical and aware floor of an apartment building. The 13th floor. I can't wait to read the others. If you enjoy paranormal, this has to be on your to-read list.
