The Problem With Power

by Agnes Jayne

Emily VonPeer hopes that she never meets the man of her dreams. For years, she's been haunted by visions of an unknown lover destined to die in her arms.

When her aunt's death brings her home to her family's estate in Upstate New York, she meets Nicholas Flynn, an agent of Paladin, an enterprise dedicated to the study and eradication of demons.

But Nicolas is something more- he is the hero of her nighttime fantasies. When he arrives on her doorstep seeking answers to a slew of magically related murders tied to the VonPeer family, Emily follows him into the investigation.

Although his intentions are suspect, Emily hopes to spare Nicolas the fate promised by her premonitions - at least, that's what she tells herself. When their exchange with a demon goes awry, Emily sustains an injury that threatens to turn her into a monster, thrusting her into the crosshairs of sorcerers, senators, and a seductive stranger who promises eternity.

I love how Agnes Jayne gives you just enough detail for me to make the story my own. My favorite part that my mind explored was the house (read it and you'll understand). There are some dynamic and awesome side kick characters I would love to see in their own book.
