Demon Touched by Emma Dean

Bound by prophecy. Tempted by stolen magic.

Nova’s mission is simple: stop the rogue witches stealing power in Seattle. But when she discovers the demon magic buried deep within her, the runes on her back reveal their true purpose—a binding spell meant to contain a power far too dangerous to control.
Haunted by her sister’s death at the hands of a demon, Nova swore never to trust their kind, but if she wants to master this infernal magic, she needs Dex, a rare nephilim feared by both angels and demons.
Even after learning he’s part demon and the heir to a ruthless syndicate, he’s still the only one Nova trusts to train her.
Dex may never forgive Nova for her lies, but if his father discovers he allowed a witch hunter to escape, she won’t be the only one in danger. Nova has to decide if she’ll stick to her mission, or risk everything for the one person she was never meant to love.
