Step into the gripping and intense first book in the Devil’s Kiss series: Devil’s Kiss by Sarwat Chadda — a dark, action-packed urban fantasy that reimagines the Knights Templar in the modern world!

Fifteen-year-old Billi SanGreal (or Bilquis) has grown up far from a normal life. As the youngest — and only female — member of the modern-day Knights Templar, she’s been trained from a young age in brutal combat, occult knowledge, and the relentless fight against supernatural threats. Under the strict command of her father, the Grandmaster, Billi’s days are filled with weapons practice, demon-hunting, and the heavy burden of protecting humanity from ancient evils that lurk in the shadows of London. When old friends return and new dangers emerge, Billi must navigate loyalty, family expectations, forbidden feelings, and the moral complexities of her deadly calling in a world where the line between good and evil blurs.

Sarwat Chadda delivers a gritty, fast-paced story with sharp tension, vivid supernatural battles, complex characters, and a strong female lead who grapples with duty, identity, and the cost of her choices — blending historical Templar lore with contemporary urban fantasy in a fresh, compelling way.

Ideal for young adult readers, fans of urban fantasy with strong heroines and secret societies like The Mortal Instruments or Demonata series, lovers of action-packed stories involving demons, ancient orders, and high-stakes battles, and anyone who enjoys gritty, character-driven tales of duty and rebellion — perfect for thrilling reading sessions!
