YA
Daphne, daughter of a demon and a fallen angel, leaves Hell to search for her favorite sibling, who’s missing on Earth. She ascertains that a self-destructive mess of a boy, Truman, is the likeliest candidate to help. Alternating perspective shows how dissimilar their worlds are, and romantics will find their eventual, hard-earned love even more compelling for the many distances between them.
