Corinthe is a supernatural being trapped in a teenage body in Humana (Earth), assigned to carry out humans' fates until she can return to her home realm, Pyralis. Her final task is to kill Luc, but she questions everything as the two fall in love. The world-building buckles under the love story, but paranormal-romance fans may enjoy the dreamlike plot of this series-opener.
