Death: a word Mia Baron was all too familiar with since the murder of her parents when she was a young girl. Her drive for vengeance was the reason she became a Death Dealer—a soul guide through the spirit realm—signing her life away in her own blood. Pain forged a concrete wall around her heart and no one or nothing would ever penetrate it…until she got what she desired most—revenge.
Deacon Gage craves justice for his own horrific tragedy that forced him into the same life Mia chose, with the same promise of vengeance dangling just out of reach. His expert training makes him an Elite—one of the few Death Dealers to ever achieve such a status—and no one can shift his focus from the blood he seeks.
But when the two are partnered for yet another job and a heart-shattering case rips open Mia’s heart, Deacon realizes he’s the only one who can save her…at a price that might be too much to pay: opening his heart to her. The clock is ticking and her life hangs on the balance of whether he can truly let go or will hold onto his desire for blood.

Mia Baron's job is to takes souls to the light gates or to the hell gates, Mia's choice of becoming a death dealer with one goal in mind . . . extracting the man that killed her parents in cold blood.
But that will all come in good time.
But that will all come in good time.
Then we meet Deacon Gage, another death dealer who also has a similar goal in mind just like Mia's.
Mia and Deacon are death dealer partners and both would try to prefer that but can they deny the bond that grows between them?
Will it remains a business venture or will it turn to a personal venture?
I give this 4 Cat's Tails Up, I really liked this book but you know it was short and there was a little cat nap in between reading the book. The idea was great I hoped there's be more to explore in this paranormal world Ashley has created.

I must say this was far off from what is usually my typical read, and in a way that was good. Reading and exploring new books and ideas that I could fall in love with. Ashley brought the dark side of death and emits light into the story.
While it was a short read "Novella" I like it, I like how the characters has goals even as death dealers and the partnership both Deacon and Mia has. When they both admitted they felt something between one another, they couldn't deny the feeling.
Something being a death dealer doesn't means that you have be to alone, you can find the light and happiness even in the most darkest places.
One of my favorite moment was when Deacon was fighting off the serpent and Mia was injured . . . wounded and had fell into the abyss. He would give just about anything to save her, to see her one last time before it was too late.
