Damien was a loyal warrior, killed in battle in 1203. Because of his true heart, he was given the option to pass on to his eternal reward or exist in another state of being as a protector… until the time came when he could resume living the life he'd been cheated of. A soldier by nature, he chose the latter. Then he waited centuries-as a gargoyle-growing increasingly bitter about his choice.

Then he sees her.

Rina is a hard worker and loyal friend. She just has the worst luck. One night, after saving her best friend from a violent assault, she finds herself at the attacker's mercy. Then, out of nowhere, a savior comes and rescues her.

With only an angel to guide him, Damien must make the right choices to win Rina's heart, or be forever damned as a grotesque mockery of the guardian he once was.
