Better Off Dead

Hell just got a lot hotter—and it has nothing to do with fire or brimstone and everything to do with an immortal Scottish Druid warrior…

So, long story short, I died when I was hit by a truck full of chickens.

Right, I literally got chick-filleted.

But my soul took a detour it wasn’t supposed to—and now I’ve been yanked out of the great beyond and offered a second chance at life.

The catch? I have to work for AfterLife Enterprises, a shady celestial corporation that made one teeny-tiny mistake back in Y2K—accidentally sending thousands of souls to the Underground City instead of Heaven.

Guess who gets to retrieve them?

Armed with a sword I can barely lift and an alcoholic, useless “guardian angel” named Bill, I’m now officially a soul retriever essentially navigating the circles of hell, but this hell goes by the name of The Underground City.

And this is by far the worst job I’ve ever had.

I would’ve been demon chow by day two… if not for Tallis Black (the immortal Scottish dude mentioned earlier).

A brooding, Celtic warrior with a deadly past and a body carved by the gods themselves, Tallis is all sharp edges, burning glances, and that voice—deep and rough like molten steel. Guarded, unfriendly, and completely lethal, Tallis hates everyone–almost as much as he hates himself. He’s like the quintessential bad boy–everything I should run from.

But when Tallis offers to guide me through the infernal chaos of the Underground City, I’m too desperate to say no.

Now I’m stuck navigating hell with a man who growls more than he speaks and looks at me like he’s trying to decide whether to kiss me or kill me.

Oh, and let’s not forget Alaire—the seductive, psychotic ruler of the Underground City. Alaire’s a man as deadly as he is evil, packaged as a handsome, successful businessman in a suit. And for some reason, Alaire’s got a thing for me–a thing that could cost me my life…

The deeper Tallis, Bill and I go into the Underground City, the more I realize Tallis is hiding things—dangerous things. Secrets that could unravel everything I thought I knew about him, the afterlife… and myself.

And somewhere between trying to dodge Alaire’s advances, learning how to use my sword, the soul-stealing demons, and the scorching tension between Tallis and me, I begin to wonder if the real danger isn’t surviving the Underground City… it’s falling for Tallis.

Perfect for fans of spicy urban fantasy, brooding immortal heroes, laugh-out-loud banter, and reluctant heroines who find their strength in the darkest places.

This series is your next must-read if you love: enemies to lovers, antiheroes with dark secrets, fated mates, forbidden love, found family, and Druid magic wrapped in a really sexy package.
