Lily Carlyle has never been a good girl. She's lied, cheated and stolen, but she did it all to protect her younger sister. To keep food on the table after their mother died. She'd made a promise, after all. A promise to take care of her sister. To keep the family together. And that's a promise she's determined to keep.

Even to the death...

When her younger sister is brutally attacked, a vengeful Lily determines to exact her own justice on the monster responsible. She succeeds—at the cost of her own life. As she lies dying, she is given a second chance: though what she has done is evil, she can earn her way into Paradise by fighting for the forces of good.

Lily agrees...

...and wakes in the body of Alice Purdue—a Boston barmaid who has more than a little familiarity with the battle raging between the Light and the Darkness. Each side is mustering their forces for all-out war—and Lily is going to become an assassin for the Light.

It's a job she believes she can really get into—but she doesn't realize that she may not be able to get out...

More Praise!

"The skillful depiction of Lily attempting to navigate her way through both Alice's life and her role as the chosen finds reflection in the sense of her never knowing for sure whom she can trust in the dark, shadowy world she now operates in. Urban fantasy fans will find much to enjoy here. This reviewer anxiously awaits book two in the series."
   —Bitten By Books

"Tainted is fast-paced, dark, and action-packed. Urban fantasy fans won't want to miss this new series."
   —SciFiChick
