Diya Steele is a succubus - an undesirable creature, much maligned and despised by her peers. She’s been trained to use her supernatural ‘curse’ of sexual allure as a weapon of assassination. She believes she is doing good work in service of Earth to balance out the continuing power struggles between the realms of what man perceives to be Heaven and Hell.
Hot on her trail are an elite demon team of assassins. Adram, the serious leader, can bend other Demons to his will. Eli, the sarcastic sadist, has the ability to project himself inside the mind, and body, of his victims. Tobi, the quiet snake shifter, can paralyze with his lethal venom and words. Rett, the giant shifting monster, can and has crushed a man’s skull like a walnut. All are willing to stop at nothing to capture, interrogate, and neutralize their prey - Diya.
When the inevitable altercation occurs, sparks and weapons fly. Secrets are uncovered and revealed. Long believed truths and lies are exposed. The very foundations they stand upon are rocked. Can five mortal enemies work together to bring peace to the realms? Will they discover who is responsible? Will they be in time?
The hell fire 🔥 and heat in this paranormal romance are scorching. The pages crackle with $exual tension and epic hate-f€ck vibes. This is a dark novel with many trigger warnings. It is not a fade to black situation in any aspect. If these concern you, please heed the warning.
I loved the characters. Diya is a thick, beautiful woman. She is worshipped for her size. She is confident and gorgeous. A true, bada$$, FMC. I loved the guys. They had some major groveling to do, as one does in an E2L book, and it was worth it. The payoff is a big one. The massive world building is amazing. Excellent writing and plot. I also loved Diya’s Bestie, Amber. She’s her ride or die. Even up against demons and shifters, she still had her back.
