Dealing with a Desperate Demon - Paperback

by Charlotte Stein (Author)

Charlotte Stein perfectly blends spicy and cozy in a new paranormal rom-com about a bewitching bookseller who helps a demon win the girl of his dreams...only to realize she might be the one he's fated for all along.

Nancy has just about given up on finding her special person when Jack Jackson--big, scary and the town loser--walks into her bookstore. He's apparently even more desperate for help in the romance department than she is. And after a bit of gentle persuasion, he finally accepts her guidance in securing his dream girl. Practice dates, lessons in tenderness--you name it, she can teach it.

There's just one problem: his dream girl might have more than an issue with his dating skills. Because Jack isn't just a little clueless; he's actually the demonic son of Satan, from the deepest depths of hell. He's spent his entire long underlife dragging evildoers to their fates, while really trying not to live up to his dad's expectations.

Now, it isn't just about getting a date with his dream girl. He needs to become a better man to win over the woman he's been cosmically bound to, in a Beauty and the Beast style pact. If he fails, everyone he cares for will face a terrible fate. Luckily for him, Nancy may well be the witch she's always tried to pretend she wasn't. She can save him, he knows it--and she's starting to know it too. Even if every day spent with him is an agonising reminder that she isn't the girl he's fated for.

But as the deadline approaches she's starting to wonder... Could it be that she's finally found her Prince? Or is she about to lose her heart to hell?
