Dante Walker is flippin’ awesome, and he knows it. His good looks, killer charm, and stellar confidence have made him one of hell’s best—a soul collector. His job is simple, weed through humanity and label those round rears with a big red good or bad stamp. Old Saint Nick gets the good guys, and he gets the fun ones. Bag-and-tag.
Stealing souls is nothing personal. Dante’s an equal opportunity collector and doesn’t want it any other way. But he’ll have to adjust, because Boss Man has given him a new assignment:
Collect Charlie Cooper’s soul within 10 days.
Dante doesn’t know why Boss Man wants Charlie, nor does he care. This assignment means only one thing to him, and that’s a permanent ticket out of hell. But after Dante meets the quirky, Nerd Alert chick he’s come to collect—he realizes this assignment will test his abilities as a collector, and uncover emotions deeply buried.

Why I'm waiting: Dante Walker. Dante Walker. DANTE WALKER! :D Sure, he sounds like every other bad boy with swagger, but when you couple that with soul reaping? That's a recipe for fun times! =) I just love that reapers have become the new paranormal hot commodity. Sooo many possibilities...
hmm.. never actually saw this book before, and i don't think it would be my type either! but still hope you get it! :D
