Synopsis 
After crawling her way out of Hell, Six is ready to cast aside her angel wings and all the responsibilities that come with them. But Earth is not as peaceful as she imagined it. Demons, dark angels, and other hell-beasties escaped before her, and they're not as content as she is to live a quiet life on Earth.

A fellow angel who escaped Hell with her commits a series of soul-murders, destroying human souls so they can't got to the afterlife. Although Six has conflicting feelings about humans, she goes after the other angel to keep their escape a secret from the one she fears most.

Review
I received this book from LibraryThing to read and provide a honest review. This book is the story of Six a fallen angel who escapes from Hell to Earth in attempt to lead a normal life. She's not sure why she was kicked out of Heaven she just knows that she was and has spent the last two thousand years in Hell. Upon escaping hell she brings Alden with her a fallen angel she owed a blood debt to and someone she calls a friend. Six was kept for the most part of the pit as it's called so she has most of her compassion and conscience while Alden having been in the pit doesn't.

I really like the character Six she may have spent thousands of years in Hell but she doesn't hate the humans the way Alden does. Six befriends Cara a young woman who found her after she cut off her wings and offers her a place to live. Six learns that there are most who have escaped Hell then just the two of them, when Alden takes her to a club where they Torture humans. At the club and after it Six learns that Alden's disregard for human life and destroying of souls is going to alert Luke to her location.

It was a quick story, but it sucked you right in and kept you wanting more the whole story. The book just flowed easily alone that I lost track of time and finished the whole story in one session. I enjoyed reading about Six, and look forward to learning more about her in the next installment.
