was only a wish.
Connor Sullivan was painfully average. The very highlight of his existence was
going to school, doing homework, and playing video games. He thought nothing would
ever change that. Unfortunately, homework usually screws everything up.
A cut, some blood, and a hastily scrawled promise to sell his soul for his
fondest wish...and all hell breaks loose. Literally.
The Demons take him up on his offer.
In a last ditch effort to keep his soul, he wishes to become one of the demons,
or Fallen as they call themselves. Connor thought he had found a solution to
his problem. He never fully understood the meaning of the phrase, "From
the frying pan into the fire," until his wish was granted. The biggest
catch?
Never ever fall in love with a human...
And then she walked into his school. Beautiful, red-haired, funny...and blind.
Connor's heart didn't stand a chance. Neither did the Fallen's rules. He had
saved his soul, but could he find happiness without hurting the girl he loved?
Or would secrets Jessica didn't even know she had destroy them all?

Trailer:
I heard the motorcycle turn onto the street I was walking on, and the rumbling grew to an almost painful level. I turned and saw it coming up fast. I expected it to blow past me at an ungodly speed, but as soon as the bike got close, the rider yanked the handlebars and fishtailed to a stop just a few inches from the curb next to me.
She looked like a supermodel dressed in leather. Dark curly tresses fell over her shoulders and down her back. I frowned a little at her lack of helmet. I never understood people's obsessions with death wishes. Then I gave her a second look over. She looked badass enough to crack the pavement. Maybe she didn't need a helmet. My eyebrows rose as I finally looked at her face.
She was gorgeous from head to toe. I felt a little guilty about looking at her face last. It was without a doubt, her best feature. She looked really young, but at the same time, something about her made her look older. The term, "Ageless," popped into my head, filling in the blank.
I expected her to shout and ask for directions over the rumble of the Harley’s engine, but she reached down and turned the key, shutting the engine off. I stood there mesmerized as she swung one leg over the bike and sat on the seat, staring right back at me.
She crossed her arms and lowered her gaze to my shabby Sketchers and raised her eyes, slowly taking in everything else.
I wanted to hide behind a tree. Nobody had looked at me like that since the first time I met my great-aunt Harriet. I had a feeling she was doing the math to figure out how much she could get for me if she sold me on eBay.
“Connor Sullivan?” She made my name a question. I nodded dumbly. “Come on, let’s get this over with.”
“Excuse me?”
“Look, I don’t have time for this. I have three more after you. What do you want?”
“Excuse me?” The word hooker flashed through my mind.
“Did you, or did you not, sign a binding contract offering your soul in exchange for one wish? If I have the wrong Connor Sullivan who lives at 1432 Willow Street, I apologize.” She rolled her eyes and threw up her arms, apparently more than a little annoyed.
“That was real?”
“Yes, completely. Now I haven’t got all night. What do you want? Make it good. The price is a little hefty I’ll admit, but it's worth it.”
Realization dawned on me. My knees went weak, but I managed to stay on my Sketchers. “This isn’t some sort of joke?”
“Nope, one wish for one soul, that was the deal.”
