Half City (Harker Academy, #1)

"Welcome to Harker Academy for Deviant Defense. Keep your daggers sharp and your wits sharper. Viv Abbot is just like any other twenty-one-year-old girl. She lives in an expensive city where the rent is too high, works long hours at a thankless job, and is dating a guy she doesn't even like in the hopes of winning her mother's approval. She also happens lead a double life as a demon hunter. After Viv's hunter father died, she became a lone wolf. Not only does she hunt deviants alone now, but everyone, including her family, sees her as an outsider...until she crosses paths with the dangerously alluring Reid Graveheart. The reformed demon tells her of a school for people like her: Harker Academy for Deviant Defense. If she enrolls, not only will she learn to hone her craft, she'll never be alone again. Though if it were that easy, wouldn't Viv's father have told her about it before he died? Viv has a deadly secret. One that she can't reveal to her new friends at Harker. Not when the school holds the answer to the many questions Viv has, from untangling the mystery surrounding her father's death to understanding her very existence. All she has to do is try not to fall for a demon and make it through her first year of school in one piece. How hard can that be?"-- Provided by publisher.
