Lost and separated from his guardian angel, Nate’s succumbing to the dragging weight and drowning noise of his declining mental health once more. And now, a new, yet loveless, relationship threatens to rapidly destroy the happiness and progress Nate made with Raziel at his side.
When a Valentine’s Day celebration with his new partner Rael turns into an eye-opening disaster, Nate is reunited with Raziel–his guardian angel, his love.
But despite their joyful reunion, Nate is not the sole reason Raziel returned. A dark plan has been brewing in Heaven, and Raziel needs allies to thwart it. Navigating old and new relationships, Raziel and Nate have to rebuild their trust and forge unlikely alliances, while making up for all the time they spent forced apart.
Will they stop Judgment Day, or is the world doomed?
