Will was a sheltered, home schooled boy from Kansas when he finally follows his dream to be a photographer in New York. Success soon follows as he graduated and gets his dream job at a newspaper, but a relationship eludes him. As soon as Lily gets hired at the paper, he embarrasses himself when they are introduced, then avoids her. When they are sent on assignment, she sees something in Will he didn't know he had in him. He agrees to let her show him, knowing he's going to get his heart broken, but is surprised when Lily admits she's fallen in love with him. Wedded bliss follows, then everything changes when Lily gets a phone call. He knows when she says she has to go out of town, she's not coming back. He has questions for her about what happened when she sneaked out the bedroom the night before. The truth ends up stranger than fiction. Lily is really Lilith, Adam's first wife and the very first demon. Will is also not human himself, but a Nephilim. His father was a fallen Grigori angel who has been let out of the pit by a Prince of hell in some sort of plot that could end up with a war between heaven and hell....and somehow, Will is at the center of it
