Tattooed Justice. A Sarim Prince Series

Rene: I bought the Grotto to shelter misfits, not host a cosmic incident. But when Liz shows up convinced a mirror wants to eat her soul, I know my life's about to get really complicated. The runes in the glass hum to my tattoos, and suddenly the chaos I dodge every night steps through my door. Mikael, an archangel, stubborn savior, and the man who somehow makes 'fated' sound manageable. He says we're destiny; I call him delusional that we'll ever be more than associates.. Mikael: I've defended humanity for millennia, but nothing prepared me for how dangerous love would be.
Rene's fire and failure-to-fetch-the-angelic-rulebook charm are an outright threat to heavenly order, yet she is the key to more than prophecies. When Carman's necromancy corners us, the two of us must pull every trick, angelic, fae, and human to retrieve the Lapis Lazuli and close the breach. Together we must become much more than enemies but lovers who will sacrifice our lives for the other. If not... Love, laughter, and lethal runes collide.
If they fail, there's no saving the world; if they win, they might have to pick which of them lives with the consequence. Tropes: Quest/macguffin, fated mates, chosen ones, cursed Magically Delicious is the first in the series. Across five books, we follow our odd, furious crew-bakers, ravens, archangels, and a few thieves-through motel rooms, Valhalla trials, and underworld bargains. We steal books back from necromancers, retrieve jasper from ice caves, and sleep beside each other while gods decide our fate.
Love here is not a tidy prize; it's the only leverage against true death. It isn't necessary to read the books in order but for a better world building experience I suggest reading in order.
