Book Blast + #Giveaway: The Unlikeable Demon Hunter by Deborah Wilde @wildeauthor @GoddessFish
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter
by Deborah
Wilde
GENRE: Urban
Fantasy Romance
BLURB:
Bridesmaids meets
Buffy.
The ago-old story of
what happens when a foul-mouthed, romance impaired heroine with no edit button
and a predilection for hot sex is faced with her worst nightmare–a purpose.
Ari Katz is
intelligent, driven, and will make an excellent demon hunter once initiated
into the Brotherhood of David. However, this book is about his twin Nava: a
smart-ass, self-cultivated hot mess, who is thrilled her brother is stuck with
all the chosen one crap.
When Nava
half-drunkenly interrupts Ari’s induction ceremony, she expects to be
chastised. What she doesn’t expect is to take her brother’s place among
the–until now–all-male demon hunters. Even worse? Her infuriating leader is
former rock star Rohan Mitra, whose sudden retirement in his early twenties now
seems a lot less mysterious.
Convinced that her
twin still has a shot at his destiny, Nava hatches a plan to convince the Brotherhood
to bring the other Katz sibling into the fold. It’s too bad Rohan’s guarding
her so closely that she might not be able to put it into action.
And it’s really too
bad Rohan’s exactly what Nava’s always wanted: the perfect bad boy fling with
no strings attached, because he may also be the one to bring down her carefully
erected emotional shields. That’s as dangerous as all the evil fiends vying for
the bragging rights of killing the only female ever chosen for Demon Club–or
the one demon in particular out for payback.
Odds of survival: eh.
Odds of having a very
good time with Rohan before she bites it: much better.
Excerpt:
The maybe-demon from Josh’s alleyway
was back, having stopped about five feet away and triggering the motion sensor.
What with Josh’s sister trying to kill me and all, he’d fallen off my radar.
Aloe gooped over my fingers, having
clutched the frond hard enough to break it, and my terror and an intense
curiosity resurfaced. There was no denying his compelling presence. Plus, he
had those long lashes that were my Kryptonite. I opened my mouth to scream. Or
drool.
He held a finger up to his delectable
lips to keep me quiet, circling me with lazy strides, checking me out.
I’d have been offended by the
blatant appraisal except under his intense scrutiny, I lit up with an electric
zing. I found myself stroking the aloe stalks in an obscene manner. Even
knowing he couldn’t see my blush since I was in the shadows didn’t kill my
utter mortification at jerking off plant life in not-so-subtextual yearning.
He stalked toward me, his leather
jacket rustling with each step.
I held up a hand to stop him, the
faintest electric crackle pulsing off my skin.
He didn’t stop, didn’t slow. In
fact, he kept up his steady approach until his hand covered mine. My magic
shocked us both at his touch. I gasped and shivered as pleasure, not pain,
rumbled through me.
Hand still clasped in his, he stared
at me suspiciously, instead of in fear, but had I wanted, I could have broken
his hold. Not a demon, then? He fingered the thin silver necklace I wore with
surprising gentleness, toying with the cute floral pendant dangling off it that
read “I will kick you in the balls if I have to.”
“Should I be scared?” Given how he
sounded like sex, sin, and salaciousness–the true definition of a triple
threat–I decided that yes, he was most definitely a demon.
I met his mocking gaze, my rooted
stance and beating heart placing me somewhere between morbid fascination and
noping the hell out at warp speed.
