He saved her life. It was the worst thing anyone has ever done to her.

Caterina Fontana was one step off a Fifth Avenue curb when something faster than a man pulled her back, and the bus passed close enough to lift her hair. No name. No explanation. Gone.
Three days later, he is standing on her Brooklyn stoop. Big as a doorway. Dressed like a man. Lying like one too. He has a story about insurance, eyes that catch the streetlight wrong, and absolutely no intention of leaving. Cate knows what it means to be watched. In Bensonhurst, surveillance is practically a neighborhood sport.

But this is different. This man sits outside her door all night like a locked gate. He handles her coffee cups like they might break in his hands. He fixes things she never asked him to fix. He lies constantly, flawlessly, and somehow every word is technically true. And when he finally tells her what he is, the truth is worse than anything she imagined.
Wingless. Earthbound. Older than her language. Locked out of heaven for a sin that still has teeth. Raq has spent ten thousand years knowing better. He knows what follows him. He knows what happens when heaven turns its attention toward a mortal woman.

But the night he saved Caterina, he broke discipline for the first time in an age. Now every eye that was watching him is watching her. He should leave. He should let her live. He should not want her with a patience that could outlast the world. But Cate starts leaving the light on for him.
Some men bring flowers. He brought the attention of heaven.

GRACELESS is a slow-burn, high-heat dark paranormal romance with a possessive fallen angel, forbidden love, ancient secrets, Catholic gothic atmosphere, and a hard-won HEA.

Book One of Faith of the Fallen, the six-book Wings of Faith and Fire saga. For fans of Nalini Singh, Jennifer L. Armentrout, and Rebecca Yarros
