Rowan James returns to her childhood home to discover evil is afoot and her grandmother is dead. Rowan is a witch and her family is cursed. She thought that she could leave this life behind and start anew half way across the country but fate has reared its ugly head and taken from her the one person that was always there for her. Rowan is now determined to do whatever is necessary to end the curse once and for all and she will have help from a very unlikely source.

Azaiel is among the fallen. He has powers unlike any other supernatural creature but what’s hunting Rowan James may be something he cannot defeat. Azaiel is a member of the League of Guardians and as a member he atones for his sins the only way he knows how by hunting those that spread evil. His trip to Salem was supposed to be about finding the leak among the Guardian ranks but Rowan James changes all that. She makes him want more and he’s going to try his best to save her from the horrible fate that awaits her.

What happens when a witch and a fallen angel team up? Will they find love or the end of everything they know?

Juliana Stone’s King of the Damned is the perfect paranormal treat. Rowan and Azaiel pull some powerful punches – the physical and emotional kind. I don’t know when I’ve read about a couple that packed as much magical power as these two. I was mesmerized by Rowan’s witchy ways and Azaiel’s fallen strength. Ms. Stone throws her readers into the action at page one. Rowan and Azaiel meet each other and the enemy simultaneously and it makes for one spine-tingling fight. I was afraid to blink thinking I might actually miss some of this powerful meeting. There are a lot of cool characters featured in King of the Damned. I cannot wait to meet some of them in future books. King of the Damned has laughter, love and lots of awesome action. Demons, Gods, Ghouls and Goblins are no match for the King of the Damned and his witch! Don’t miss out on this paranormal adventure.
