Two Souls & a Pocket Watch

Vampire daddies are all the rage, but Armando Rose really doesn't want one.

He's always been too pretty for his own good, but when a friend inconveniently dies, leaving him with a child to take care of, he assumes he'll suddenly become less desirable to the undesirable men of the underground—a fact which would've suited him eminently, thank you very much.

But he assumes wrong.

His new charge is already the best pickpocket in London at seven years old, and there is no shortage of men willing to exploit her.

Now, the Thames is alive with corpses thanks to the vengeful machinations of Jack Wish, who wants Cecilia's nimble fingers and Armando's body for himself. As a nephilim with two souls, Armando is corpse food. Unable to tap into his powers due to his father's refusal to acknowledge him, he is forced to seek out something he never has before—a vampire protector.

Disfigured by a deranged nephilim, Kilgarrah Abaddon has reason enough to distrust angels, especially pretty ones who have a knack for finding themselves in trouble.

If only Abaddon didn't have a hero complex.

Can a supernaturally awkward angel and an enormous scarred vampire find love with a little help from a mischievous pickpocket?
