Lucia Cleary is a librarian who deals in rare books, ancient manuscripts, and the quiet certainty that the supernatural world belongs firmly between the pages of a novel. Then her mother is murdered, a brooding Archangel in a Star Wars T-shirt shows up in her rare books archive, and everything she thought she knew unravels.
Jehudiel is the Archangel of Illumination and Wisdom, wielder of a lethal three-pronged whip, and the last being in any Realm who should be falling for a human. Especially this human. Luci is brilliant, stubborn, and hiding a secret that could get her killed by the very angels sworn to protect the Earth. Archangels and humans do not mate. The law is absolute. Jed has never even once thought about breaking it.
He does now.
With fallen angels engineering global chaos and the Grigori closing in on an ancient text that holds the key to Earth's destruction, Jed needs Luci's rare gift to decipher what's coming. But the closer they get, the harder it becomes to pretend that this is merely duty, that the pull between them is simple, or that the Realm's judgment won't eventually come for them both.
Wisdom's Whip is a forbidden romance set in a richly imagined angelic world — where the rules are ancient, the stakes are apocalyptic, and the one thing no law can contain is what happens when an Archangel finally meets his match.
