Salvation comes with a price. . . 
Bound by the blood contract his human mother signed four centuries ago, half-demon, David Sadler, must obey his demonic Master's order to capture fifteen-year-old Jessica Hanks. But as he learns more about her, he realizes she may be the key to freedom from his dark enslavement. 
The only obstacle-Jessica's distractingly beautiful Guardian, Rebeka Abbott. He must not give in to their steamy chemistry, or he will lose his humanity. But fresh off a quarter millennia of sensory deprivation as punishment for not retrieving his last target, he may not be able to resist temptation long enough to save what's left of his human soul.

I liked this book. To me it started out slow but when it pick up I didn't put it down! The whole time you want to know why a mother would sell her first born son's soul for riches. And when you discover the truth it makes you want to cry! You instantly fall in love with David for his human side and when you meet Reka you hope that she will love him. I love the Demon and Angel idea of this story. It is really hard to find one that is good and this one is it!
