Hope in Love — J. Hali Steele

The world is changing. Hope is fading. Darkness beckons. And one angel holds the answer. Tired of death, destruction and mankind's race to ruination, Ramiel, archangel of hope, finds it harder and harder to care about those he's meant to help. Now the Fates have decreed that Ramiel must mate with Yael, an exulted human. On his shoulders rides the universe's only hope for survival, but the ties that bind him to Yael force him to face his own unexpected reckoning.

Yael, elevated to Heaven to live out her days in peace, recoils from the sadness and shadows of death in Ramiel's eyes. Yet the need to ease the despair haunting him is stronger. During nights of searing sensuality, Yael and Ramiel light an erotic fire between them that will not be extinguished. As the combined forces of the heavens try to tear them apart, Ramiel must find a way to hold on to the love he finds with Yael or an end will come, so devastating that Heaven will drop to its knees.
