Description
Description
Cassiel has given up the family tradition of demon hunting, leaving behind her sacred angelic duty and fated sword. What she can't leave behind are the scars. To cope, she spends her days immersed in work, pouring all her attention into New Haven Books, her small bookstore and anchor in the new world she's carved for herself.
But the past hasn't let go of Cassiel yet. When a succubus named Avitue arrives to claim her angel-touched soul, Cassiel's old hunter instincts flare, forcing her to choose between old knowledge and her truth. What should be a fatal seduction becomes a bargain neither woman expects. As they grow closer, Avitue is surprised to find her own pain reflected in Cassiel, a nephilim deemed fallen by her own family's standards.
By choosing trust, they reveal the lies that bind them. Falling for each other begins a path towards healing. But exorcising the effects of trauma is harder than naming it, and to explore the unfettered possibility Avitue represents, Cassiel must find a way to reclaim and redefine her angelic heritage.
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
The Fall That Saved Us weaves a heated sapphic romance with a cruel war of attrition between demons and the divine, only to remind us that the shared thread between it all is raw and vulnerable humanity. With an eye for the infinite complexities of healing from abuse, Tamara Jerée goes fangs out at religious trauma and bites deliciously deep.
-Rien Gray, author of the Fatal Fidelity series
A beautiful book. Jerée's prose is as sumptuous and inviting as a chocolate truffle, drawing you into a narrative both sensuous and profound. I loved every moment of it.
-P H Lee, Nebula-nominated author of Just Enough Rain
Tamara Jerée stuns in this self-assured debut, telling a barbed sapphic tale of grandiose consequence and intimate scale. The Fall That Saved Us brings a profoundly empathetic eye to a hidden war between heaven, hell, and the nephilim trapped in between. Throughout, the narrative pulses with erotic tension and pathos in equal measure, building to a climax that reckons with both the destructive and healing powers of blood-in every sense of the word. One thing is certain: I'll never look at the hilt of a dagger the same ever again.
-Bendi Barrett, author of Empire of the Feast
