I had the opportunity to read Devil’s Temptation by Trish Heinrich and let me just say, I really liked this book. It’s a different take on paranormal romance than the typically vampires, werewolves, demons and anything that I’ve read before. Devil’s Temptation is focused on Tessa, an investigative reporter trying to regain her reputation after a bad breakup and Nathan, a playboy nightclub owner who is struggling with his family’s celestial legacy. They meet by chance when he saves her one night from a demon attack. From there, things escalate.
I loved that Devil’s Temptation is written in dual POV. I really liked to see Nathan’s reactions and thoughts. This book has the steamy and good plot. The characters are interesting and suck you in. You like them and are rooting for them. I even liked the side characters and want to know how their stories end up. I’d love to see more about Justine and Alexis’s backstories as well as Nathan’s family backstory.
One thing to note is that the story begins and the reader doesn’t necessarily get all the information right away. We begin with Tessa at the Supers Confidential offices. You don’t have to wait long to learn more about Supers Confidential and the paranormal elements included in this story..its all described in the next few chapters but as someone who likes to know everything right away it was a tad hard at the very beginning only because I felt like I was missing something or didn’t have the full story. That could also be because this is my first time reading this author but that said, it didn’t take away from the story. I was still sucked in and committed to Tessa/Nathan. I stayed up and finished the book in one day.
So overall, I highly recommend this book!! It’s a can’t miss paranormal romance. It’s got interesting characters, a different take on the paranormal, good plot, as well as some added spice! Looking forward to reading book 2; I cannot wait to find out what happens with Ravi and Ava!!

Lucifer fans this book is a love letter to you! I love the entire Silver City Celestials series and Nathan and Tessa are where it all begins! Their dynamic definitely reminds me a little of Lois and Clark, with Tessa being a motivated reporter trying to right her career. Nathan is the ‘bad boy’ billionaire club owner with a tragic past. This romance hit all the right beats, strong female lead with great banter and the steam, oh my the steam! Memorable side characters flow seamlessly into the next book. Binge worthy book boyfriend alert!
