Sophie Lawson is a human immune to magic, which comes in handy for helping paranormal beings transition into everyday life. But fallen angel Alex Grace and his search for the Vessel of Souls is one curse she never saw coming. Suddenly an unexplainable string of killings and destruction has even San Francisco's demons fearing for their immortal lives. And Sophie isn't about to trust Alex's all-too-vulnerable charm or his secret agenda. Now their hunt is revealing dangerous secrets about Sophie's past, and a malevolent power hellishly close to turning one irreverent human into the ultimate supernatural weapon. . .

Starred review from August 1, 2011
Jayne follows Under Wraps with a hilarious second tale of the Underworld Detection Agency. Sophie Lawson's hunky on-again/off-again boyfriend, Alex, is a fallen angel in search of a mysterious artifact called the Vessel of Souls that could help him restore his wings. His big challenge is getting to it before other fallen angels do. Sophie's got problems of her own: the Underworld Detection Agency's San Francisco branch is under new management, and as the only human on staff, Sophie knows her executive assistant job is at risk. This urban fantasy tale smartly balances riveting action with wonderful light touches like the Vampire Empowerment and Restoration Movement, which protests Hollywood's portrayal of vampires; paperwork-filled supernatural bureaucracy; and pixie-size bathroom stalls. New readers and returning fans will find it entirely accessible and enjoyable. -

Magic-immune agent Sophie Lawson finds more trouble in the form of Alex Grace, a fallen angel in search of the Vessel of Souls. San Francisco is the setting for this urban fantasy series that began with Under Wraps.
