Covenant with the Devil: An Epic Horror Trilogy (The Immanence Series) By Linda Robertson Reinhardt

A reluctant demon-slayer finds an alien connection in heaven.

From the author of the Persephone Alcmedi series comes a new, action-packed trilogy.

Jovienne trained to be a demon-slayer, but no one told her she'd have to kill for eternity. Now she wants out, but the gift of angelic immortality can't be returned.

"...a unique and twisted journey of action, horror, and urban fantasy, packed with cool ideas. In a genre where so much feels the same, it’s a pleasure to encounter a writer who has found a different muse." - Christopher Golden, New York Times Bestselling Author

Jovienne wants to be a slayer, but first she’ll have to survive the test.

When her test is at hand, he reveals a partial truth that leaves her reeling. Worse, her demon opponent reads her mind and uses her tragic past and unrequited emotions against her. Unprepared for the non-physical aspects of this fight, Jovienne is overpowered. Desperate and on the cusp of death, her long-suppressed magic resurfaces.
Forced to do terrible things to survive, Jovienne struggles afterward. Without her consent, she’s been remade as an angel. This further enhancement makes her nearly immortal, but she’s bound in holy servitude. Forever.
A possessor demon, having heard she used magic during her test, comes to town and takes an attractive new host. He claims he can help her break her sacred shackles – for a price. Jovienne could have the freedom she craves but obtaining it would prove she’s the monster she fears she’s become.

This series is boldly irreverent and the twist in book three is mind-blowing. It has everything: angels and demons, ghosts, old magic and flaming swords, engaging and flawed characters, as well as universe-shattering plot twists. What’s more, it
