"The victim of what she believes is a malicious kidnapping, seer Delilia Desjardins quickly realizes that her abductor is on a divine mission to save her from assassins. Rafe, a fallen angel, must ensure that Delilia reaches her true calling as an oracle for the Republic--and if that results in a closer relationship between the two of them, well, he doesn't mind that at all. Filled with visions of her destruction should she succumb to Rafe's charms, Delilia knows she has to leave him. But fleeing his guardianship sets the assassins on her trail again. As Rafe races to save Delilia, he knows he isn't just saving her for the good of the Republic--he's saving her for himself."--p. [4] of cover.
