The Keepers of Hell

Ash had promised himself into servitude with a demon when he was only a child. He spent his life killing for the demon, and he was good at his job. It was the only way to ensure the safety of his sister. When a brush with death brings Dr. Elizabeth Rone into his life, things change. The demon wants her dead. And for Ash, that's a deal-breaker.

Ash had lived his life under a deal with a demon, but when the demon asked for more than Ash could give, he killed the demon to save his sister and the woman he loved... and in doing so, Ash landed himself as the new leader of Hell. Ash accepted his fate and asked only one thing in return: He didn't want Elizabeth, the woman who held his heart, to be a part of his new life. He just wanted her safe and happy, and he asked that they not know each other.

Jake the Flame lived his life in sin. He pushed everyone who cared about him away with his selfishness and greed. A professional firefighter, he happened to be there when a bomb devastated a church, and he gave his life helping others escape. That was when he met Ash, the new leader of hell. Ash offered Jake a job he couldn't refuse as a member of the Elite Guard, a group of warrior angels charged with protecting Ash and the balance between heaven and hell. This could be Jake's only chance at redemption, and he took it.

Lacy lived her human life under the thumb of an abusive husband. She freed herself from that life and started a new one as a high school teacher.

That was how her human life ended and her new life as an elite guard began. The new leader of Hell offered her a job she couldn't refuse, helping those who need her, keeping both Hell and Earth safe.

On the day he died, Lucas found himself in front of an angel at the mouth of Hell. As a werewolf and a sniper, he had taken his share of lives. Maybe Hell was where he belonged. But the angel gave him the chance to reclaim his soul, by working as an Elite Guard for the new leader of Hell. Protect and serve, just as he had done in life. Lucas isn't there long before he sees the woman that will change everything for him, and the wolf inside him demands that Lucas claim her as his mate.
