Soleil Burns was born to be an exorcist. Since meeting Valerie and Jerome Dusdain, the previous summer, her life has been chaos, good chaos, but chaos. Soleil has started her own private exorcism company, in preparation of becoming the guardian of the most powerful wizard in the world, who also happens to be only fourteen years old. With Valerie’s cancer getting worse and the archangel Michael’s dire warnings regarding her impending death, the possibility of becoming Jerome’s guardians is now more of an eventuality.

While helping Jerome with his homework, Soleil notices her normally energetic werewolf neighbors aren’t up and around like usual. Then she notices they have a package on their doorstep, which is strange since it’s a Sunday. When she goes to check on them, she finds the house full of silver particles and the five werewolves barely clinging to life.

Soon, she finds herself chasing a serial killer. A serial killer who knows her every move. She must stop him before anymore supernatural families are murdered. How do you stop a killer who knows what you intend to do nearly as soon as you decide to do it? How much of her soul will he take before he’s safely in handcuffs? Soleil Burns finds out early on you can’t chase a serial killer and not have it change you.

Amazon series!

Since I've become so interested in angels and demons, witches and wizards lately, I can't think of a better author's stories than Haydena James! I became so immersed in this story, I hated for it to end, and it has lingered in my mind ever since. Now, I have to wait for the third book to be released!!

Oh my, Wizard!

Another amazing read from Hadena James! I love every bit of this book and couldn’t put it down. My only disappointment is that I finished and now have to wait for the next installment in the series.

Soleil and Jerome’s characters are developing nicely and I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know some of the other archangels better.

If you’re looking for a quick and entertaining read, pick up this book - but definitely start with the first in the series so that you fully grasp all the characters and backstory.

Great read

The second book in the Nephilim series is another great fantasy/paranormal from HJ. This book has all the things I need in a book to make me happy. Great characters, humor and an interesting storyline; this one puts a new spin on angels and demons, witches and wizards, and an introduction to the terrifying wendigo. I can totally recommend this book but start with Natural Born Exorcist book one to really get started on this new series.

This is the second book in the Nephilim Narratives series, and I'm SO glad it continued to be as awesome as I hoped it would be - in fact it was better!! From the very beginning, where there's a pink unicorn in the garage and I laughed out loud, I knew I would love this book, and I totally did! Even the couple of errors in it couldn't dim my enjoyment, and it wholly deserves its 5* review. Now I just need the next book ASAP please!!

Yet another winner from Hadena James! This book is an excellent read, and is so hard to put down once you start it! An excellent follow-up to the first book and I can't wait for book three to come out!

Excellent as always

Hadena James always has me laughing, no matter the subject matter of the book. This book was no exception. Even with crazy, magical serial killers running around, there's plenty of sarcasm and smart remarks.

I love all of her books. This one is no different. I laughed and cried. This is the first of her books to make me cry though. I'm looking forward to the next one!
