Amerie Carter has the bloodline of a Hunter – unfortunately. The day Amerie hits sixteen, she’ll have the power to hunt the Damned – a group of escaped souls from Hell that take up residence in human bodies. Never has she dreaded a birthday more. And when she finally turns sixteen, her mother is killed by one of the Damned, leaving Amerie mentor-less and motherless.

So she quits. All evidence of being a Hunter is locked away in boxes under the bed and in the back of her mind. Who wants to deal with blood and death anyway? Amerie’s way more interested in school and the mysterious guy at her new job, Marshall. Though he’s everything she can’t stand, there’s a pull neither can ignore.
