Callie Delgado always puts family first, and unfortunately her brother knows it. Sheâs emptied her savings, lost work, and spilled countless tears trying to keep him out of trouble, but now heâs in deeper than ever, and his debt is on Callieâs head. Sheâs given a choice: do some dirty work for the mob, or have her brother returned to her in tiny pieces.
Renting souls is big business for the religious population of Gem City. Those looking to take part in immoralâor even illegalâactivity can borrow someone elseâs soul, for a price, and sin without consequence.
To save her brother, Callie needs a borrowed soul, but she doesnât have anywhere near the money to pay for it. The slimy Soul Charmer is willing to barter, but accepting his offer will force Callie into a dangerous world of magic she isnât ready for.
With the help of the guarded but undeniably attractive Derekâwhose allegiance to the Charmer wavers as his connection to Callie growsâsheâll have to walk a tight line, avoid pissing off the bad guys, all while struggling to determine what her loyalty to her familyâs really worth.
Losing her brother isnât an option. Losing her soul? Maybe.
