This was such a fun read! I loved the twist on demons and other supernatural beings. What’s starts as revenge against her cheating ex turns into something more when Blair decides to seduce her exes dad, Dax. Blair is a witch who had never fit in and Dax is a demon bounty hunter for Lucifer in search of a rogue demon. It’s definitely lust at first sight which turns into something more. But can Blair let go of her past so she can move forward with Dax? There are great side characters, dark humor, and plenty of great spice. 

I really wish it wasn’t so twisty and turny for almost no reason and I felt like the ending was very anticlimactic. There was a lot of pain and mystery throughout the book that just felt inconsistent with the ending. 

All in all I really enjoyed it and am excited for the next book to be released.

I found the plot significantly more interesting than all the sex. Not that the sex was boring, it just could hold up to how fire the plot of this was. 

There is a really emotional rough scene about 15% of the way into the book when Blair’s mother tries to murder her. I hated that but, but overall loved the book as a whole, just check trigger warnings. 

I had never really thought about nepotism before, but currently I’m a huge fan. (Blair’s POV, 279)

I liked how Blair owned her abilities and emotions and her differences. She took some emotional beatings to get to that place, but she owns it now and is unwilling to relinquish it. I liked Dax and how appreciated Blair for who she was. I really liked that both of them were able to be themselves with each other. I liked the relationship that Blair has with her cousin, Stevie. Dax's relationship with Asmo and Kas is entertaining. I found the mystery interesting.
