Lost Angels: As Above, So Below: Book 1

When the succubus Lorelei sees Azaziel across Lost Angels, she knows he’s been kicked out of Heaven, but is not yet Fallen. She resolves to do whatever it takes to bring the angel down. Unfortunately, Lorelei doesn’t realize that Azaziel has an agenda of his own. Taking her back to a burned-out church, he forces a mortal girl’s soul into the devil girl’s flesh. Then the succubus needs to find an exorcist who can cast the ghost out of her. With all the supernatural warriors of Los Angeles looking on, neither the angel nor the succubus can imagine how love will derail their plans.

From the Back Cover

In the days before the Flood, Azaziel had been a Watcher, sent down to help God's creatures on Earth. He fell in love with Anah, one of Cain's granddaughters. When the waters rose, Azaziel took Anah under his wings and carried her to safety on another plane. After they passed her mortal span in bliss, Azaziel returned to accept his punishment. Now he's imprisoned in the Los Angeles basin, where he works God's will among the homeless, runaways, and working poor. His angelic brethren, Heaven's outcasts and misfits, don't understand the longing Aza feels: once he had been loved entirely for himself. The succubus Lorelei doesn't know any of this when she sets her sights on Azaziel. All she knows is the angel's fall will bring glory to Hell and acclaim to any succubus who accomplishes it. Of course, it never occurred to her that Azaziel might possess her with a mortal girl's soul...
