Even at the risk of confronting the Church. Even at the risk of losing his humanity.But power isn’t the only thing on Aidan’s mind. He’s falling for the intoxicating Tomas, an Incubus who offers everything Aidan desires. For a price.And if that price burns the world down, well…Aidan is used to playing with Fire.
