What a great read. It started off much like the TV show Lucifer minus the crime solving. By the end I was in tears, happy tears. I’m an emotional reader lol. The spice level was medium,just the right level. Ya know for a deal made with the devil. I definitely recommend this one.
I don't star books I don't finish because I just don't think that's fair.
Like other reviewers, I was excited to read this because I like the tv-series "Lucifer". The twist here is that he needs to corrupt a "good" soul to keep the gates of hell locked and he plans corruption by seduction. She wants her dad saved from terminal illness. Seems like a story that would tug on the heart as well as the libido, right?
The writing kept me from getting into the book far enough to start the seduction. The style was rushed and repetitive - more like an early YA (in my opinion) than the romance/erotica it's supposed to be. No real flow structure wise, and stock characters that readers don't have the opportunity to connect with. I didn't find him seductive. It is hinted that she has depth - love of family, reasons for being "good" - but the writing didn't let us in to explore that.
Fun concept, but overall I just couldn't get into it.

3.7 stars. This was both hot and intense. I did enjoy that the main love intresset was "bad to the bone" but still enjoyable to read about. However the fact he was the devil, Lucifer in all his glory, did in all honesty make me a bit uncomfortable. I'm not very religious but it feelt a bit too wrong. But because it was written by Emma Castle it's its still one of a hell kind of book haha
Okay....one thing I can say about Emma Castle is that she can write, but this read reminded me to much of Lucifer the TV series...which I love love. There were too many similarities for my liking. 3stars because the writing was good, meh plot line but i loved the HEA.

When I first started this book, it was not what I was expecting. It felt a little bit like fan fiction writing, and kinda repetitive. However I convinced myself to continue and I am so glad I did. There were some mild spice scenes, I was rooting for their relationship to last despite the powers seeming to work against them, and I was on edge through those last couple chapters. It was a bit predictive with our heroines purpose, but enjoyable to read the reveal nonetheless. 4.5 stars for me, loved the ending and thought it was absolutely adorable.
