Review: The Demon Undertaker (Possessive Love) by Alex J. Adams

Rating: 2.5 🌈

The Demon Undertaker (Possessive Love) by Alex J. Adam’s is another book in the Possessive Love collection that’s written by an author new to me.

I thought the premise of a mortuary run by demon brothers a terrific idea. Bury the bodies, collect the souls of the nasty ones. Or whatever. Doesn’t mention what happens to all the other souls of the people they bury, which should be a lot.

Even better, the author had the demons locate the whole business to a section of town where the population was old and aging out. But there’s an issue logically here only slightly mentioned as business getting slow. The errors are in the design and development here.

It was also noted that it was a bad sector of town but that went nowhere in the narrative and I thought it was a missed opportunity.

There’s so many elements here that are not very well explained or even understood. That includes the characters.

There’s poor Kieran who lost his beloved husband of 5 years to cancer and is still lost in his grief. That’s natural. There’s no timetable for mourning the loss of someone you’ve deeply loved. And everyone here is pushing him to move forward as they are worried about him.

However, as the story goes, Kieran is lost in his grief so deeply he’ll make a deal with a demon to bring hubby back to immediately he’s fine now and having sexual relations. Was any of that believable? No. Just no foundation work laid out for this transition to make sense.

Let’s talk demons. Who aren’t particularly demonic. Or scary even. They have a caring Mom and Dad down in Hell looking after them, and a cute Hellhound who’s not particularly hellish itself. I find some trick or treaters more frightening.

Mal doesn’t like humans until he does, because, look Kieran is his fated mate!!

Then drama from out of the blue arrives because, idk, it was needed, but had no foundation.

The lesbian couple Kieran worked with was the best part of the story aside from the premise which went nowhere and was wasted.

That was the real shame here. Because that original premise of this story? Interesting, and ultimately lost.

What happens when you are in a neighborhood that ages out and the turnover is all younger? If you’re only taking the nasty souls, what’s going on with the souls of the other bodies that you are burying? So many questions that could have been raised and answered in a story that was written with that premise in mind.

Not a recommendation unless you are a fan of the author. Then it’s up to you.

Mal

Perfect Shores Funeral Parlour, the family business; we bury the bodies and reap the souls, it’s what we do.

ā€œBe nice to the humans, Mal.ā€ My father insists. ā€œHumans are our business.ā€

I don’t do humans. I don’t like humans. They’re tedious, but I’m cold and unfeeling. They mean nothing to me.

But then he walks in; sad eyes, sallow skin, a man grieving for his lost love. It’s all I can do not to hide him away and take care of him.

This wasn’t supposed to happen. He wasn’t supposed to happen; now I don’t know how to handle these feelings.

Doesn’t he know I’m a demon, not a lover?

ā€œIt’s time to move on, Jase.ā€ Kristine’s words ring in my ears as I enter Perfect Shores Funeral Parlour, but that isn’t what I have in mind.

You see, I’ve heard of a man that can bring him back from the dead and I’ll do anything to hold him in my arms again. Kieran was my world until his ended.

But then there he is. Tall, dark and brooding, but he’s not the one I’m here to see. He’s not the one that can bring Kieran back to me.

Something about him, though. I can’t explain how he brings a long-forgotten smile to my face, how my stone-cold heart beats a little faster.

This wasn’t supposed to happen. He wasn’t supposed to happen.

But he’s a demon, not my dead lover.

TW – mentions the death of a loved one

Review: Son of the Arch Demon (Possessive Love) by Amanda Meuwissen

Rating: 5 🌈

Well, this made me exceptionally happy. In a collection about demons from hell finding a mate and a relationship, in whatever form that may take, I have a story where the characters are actually coming across as demonic. With a few minor exceptions. And hell’s no vacation spot.

Amanda Meuwissen’s tale of love and demons is an intriguing affair. I love it when a collection reacquaints me with an author I haven’t read in a while with outstanding results, and that’s what I found here.

Immediately the author gives us a compelling opening . It’s Avriel’s 21st birthday and he’s feeling a bit out of sorts, even for him. From beautifully detailed descriptions of the characters and their personalities and lives , the reader is intimately familiar with the situation as the story begins and understands the types of people involved. Avi is immediately real and grounded in his small group of friends and college town.

And when he dies, it’s gut wrenching. That’s not a spoiler. It’s in the blurb and how he changes into his true self. But are we still prepared for it? No.

Then there’s Marchosias, the demon imp, also known as Marc. He’s the other half of this incredibly complicated, emotional narrative. From the start, Marc has a surprising history and agenda that prompts a character development that’s both in keeping with his demonic tendencies and newfound sense of self worth. It’s an exceptional journey.

But it’s done in tandem with the changes brought forth by the death and rebirth of Avi’s demon nature. And the battles they face from the Princes of Hell.

Meuwissen was so clever in using the seven deadly sins as avatars for the Princes of Hell. How they manifested themselves in the earthly realm I’ll leave to the book as well as those formidable battles. Just outstanding on every level.

Even the other characters that support Avi and Marc are so good in their roles and depth of personality. The father who is just glimpsed until the later stages still has a strong sense of self. The cast is believable and grounded in emotion and real life, even given the paranormal nature of the situations.

Let’s get to the part where there’s pain, blood, suffering, and death, because yes, these are demons. There may be a beauty in their brutality and otherworldly physicality but they are definitely demons. It’s reflected in the evolving relationship between Avi and Marc, the conflicted nature of their roles as Avi changes and Marc becomes more aware of his own feelings. Such an emotional connection and excellent element of this story.

Avi and Marc have decisions to make if possible. That’s part of the amazing story and the author’s ability to create a great narrative. I won’t spoil it but will say this is my favorite of the collection. And I’m delighted to have rediscovered this author once more.

Grab this one up if paranormal fiction and romances are your wheelhouse.

Son of the Arch Demon: An MM Paranormal Romance

Blurb:

Sometimes the high road leads straight to Hell.

Avriel

Turning twenty-one is almost universally seen as the age of transformation, of coming into one’s own, reaching adulthood, and sometimes even as a symbol of death and rebirth. I never knew how literal that last part could be until, on my twenty-first birthday, I died and was resurrected as a demon.

Well, half-demon and would have died if I wasn’t prophesized to become the Antichrist and take over the world. All I wanted was to survive graduation, achieve my dream of becoming an artist, and maybe have Marc, the hot new guy who I thought liked me for me, be anything other than a lust demon hoping to guide me on my path to the apocalypse.

Marchosias

Occasionally, ya gotta make yer own destiny, my lovelies, so when I found a thin spot in the veil between Hell and earth, I leapt right through it. Sensing the soon-to-be successor to the throne of Hell, I insinuated myself on campus and into his life to await his awakening and fell to my knees in supplication once he did. Pity Avi is so set on denying his destiny.

But I can convince him. I will serve and aid and arouse my master in whatever manner necessary to get what I want. I’ve been an underling, a doormat, a lesser demon for far too long, and his path to glory is going to be mine.

Review: Curiosity Caught the Demon (Possessive Love) by Travis Beaudoin

Rating: 3.5 🌈

Travis Beaudoin is another new to me author and I liked his story in the Possessive Love collection.

But I didn’t love it. Or emotionally connect with the characters. And I think that’s due to manner in which the first person point of view was written. The author had the main character addressing the reader directly which has the effect of throwing the reader out of the immediate situation or context. In the many scenes , it felt ā€œas told toā€ because Gremory the Prince of Hell ended up describing the actions he had taken/would take to the reader or his boyfriend, Scotty Campbell.

That distance from the source of the drama kept me from ā€œseeingā€ what was happening in real time. It removes the reader from the actual events, disconnecting us because we are listening to Gremory’s thoughts or conversations. If it’s a conversation, the demon is editing it to accommodate his human’s feelings and needs. So Scotty and us are getting a tame PG or milder version than what you would expect from a demon Prince bent on revenge and a bit of destruction.

Same goes for the relationship. It’s PG 13, while there’s nothing wrong with that, it’s hard for me to reconcile that with a demon prince who’s decided on a mate and course of action.

So I feel the potential for a deeper, more complex relationship and storyline exists here (the Curiosity shop is well done, with lovely touches like the photos with Scotty and his grandmother). But it’s never fully realized and in most cases, that potential is lost.

A two person pov might have been better to see a wider picture. I’m not talking about the weird body sharing as that raised more questions than it answered.

But it had some interesting elements and neat details that make it stand out.

Curiosity Caught the Demon: An MM Paranormal Romance

Blurb:

He pulled me into his world by mistake. Now I’m trying like hell to bring him into mine.

It’s hard to surprise Gremory. He’s been around for millennia, after all. But when this Duke of Hell is accidentally summoned by Scotty Campbell, the big-hearted owner of a struggling antique shop, he realizes there are still people in the world who can provoke his curiosity.

As Gremory lets himself get tangled up in human emotions and earthly delights, Scotty’s big heart and quiet strength become irresistible. What started out as strictly business will blossom into a connection that will stretch the laws of Heaven, Hell, and the local village council.

From witty banter to steamy encounters to the genuine joy two kindred souls find when they work toward a common goal, their relationship will push them farther than they ever expected to go. Sparks will fly, but will they be able to save Scotty’s shop in time for the town’s annual Halloween Festival?

Review: Cuddly Demon by (Possessive Love) by Aster Rae

Rating: 2 DNF

From the author’s notes, she normally writes contemporary Daddy kink stories and this is her first paranormal romance without any of her usual sexual elements.

As I’ve never read any of her books, I have nothing to compare this with, but the idea of writing outside of a contemporary fiction story is looking problematic.

Immediately there’s questions popping into my head. Mostly about character development and background. Or lack of.

A blue demon called Onyx (black) who after being sealed away for 3,000 years immediately knows what modern cities (New York, cardigans , libraries) and objects are by name and use. The oceans now have western names for them in his mind after 3, 000 years of being entombed. But ok. Nothing seems to bother him. He accepts the modern world Saint inhabits and the wishes he grants (make him terrific at the new online game that just came out for example) but is flummoxed over other technologies? Made no sense.

So it acts like a djinn but a millions year old demon who knows things. And immediately they are kissing. Right after some of the worst dialogue I’ve read in a while.

Keep in mind Saint has just summoned this demon off of a TikTok, they just talked and it’s straight to boyfriend status. SMH

ā€œI’m a virgin. I’ve never been with a man, and that makes me a loser to most other humans.” My eyes never leave his. “

ā€œYou’re wrong. Demons can’t control who they’re attracted to. Like you’d expect, my brothers were attracted to bad boys. Ones who walked the streets of Etruria picking up married men. They liked correcting their behavior, typically through spankings. I’m different.” “

I like that you’re different.” “

I’m a softer, more sensitive demon. Bad boys have their appeal, but I like sweeter guys. Ones who know how to cuddle, be open with their feelings,….”ā€

— Cuddly Demon by Aster Rae

I’m flipping page’s now because there’s no real depth here. They are tip toeing thru the tulips, holding hands across the campus. I’m thinking you summoned a demon. Where’s the surprise? The amazement? The denial? Nopes. It’s look at the blue hottie!

That blue hottie is supposedly from Hell. Are we getting any fumes here?

No just more nonsensical stuff like:

ā€œWhat language is that?” I ask, lifting my gaze to meet his. “It’s Etruscan,” he responds, his voice soft. “I picked it up after I left Hell as a young demon. It’s like a second nature to me.”ā€

Or language. But ok.

When Saint actually says hell scares him with all those flames and dead people , I burst out laughing (not that he knows what he is talking about). I don’t think I was meant to. Especially since Onyx tells him it’s not that bad and makes it sound like a daycare but really hot.

And I knew then I wasn’t going to finish the book. Life is too short and there’s so many more books to read.

If you’re a fan of this author, then go ahead and pick it up. That’s my only suggestion.

Cuddly Demon

Blurb:

I didn’t expect the summoning spell I found on Tik Tok to work.

I’m Saint. I’m your average, run-of-the-mill, overstressed college sophomore. My boyfriend prospects are nil, and that’s assuming I even have time for a partner.

Ha. An English major with free time. That’s a good one.

When I use a spell I found in a viral Tik Tok video to help me with an assignment, the last thing I expect is for a super ripped blue-skinned demon to show up in the campus library.

My demon’s name is Onyx, and his last master locked him in an Etruscan tomb three thousand years ago. Onyx tells me that he’s here to do my bidding and I think that sounds great, to be honest. He quickly finishes my classwork and even makes a new game I’ve wanted appear out of nowhere.

Onyx’s assistance comes with a price. As it turns out, he was shut up in the cave because his last master refused to pay up.

I ask Onyx what his price is, and he tells me he demands… cuddles. And kisses. And lots and lots of… other things.

Looks like I conjured up more than I bargained for…

Cuddly Demon is a paranormal MM romance with a sweet college student who needs hugs, a demon with a gentle hand, a wedding in Hell, and a sugary sweet guaranteed happily ever after. It’s part of the multi-author Possessive Love series.

Review: Drop Dead Demon by (Possessive Love) by B. Ripley

Rating: 4.25🌈

Ripley’s Drop Dead Demon is another good installment in the Possessive Love collection.

It starts with a familiar thread about a young boy , a toddler, in an impoverished situation . His young mother needs to work so leaves him alone in a poor hotel for long periods of time. He’s scared and unhappy until out of the dark his imaginary friend comes.

Usually in other books it’s an adult but here, what emerges from the darkness is a little being the same age as himself.

What a great idea and way for the narrative to go forward.

Both Brady, the human, and Roth, the demon, interact as children at the beginning of the story. While Roth has more knowledge about what Brady is to him, he’s still a child, and he’s listens to Brady with a child’s heart, however otherworldly.

That Ripley lets us meet them at this stage makes the next step in their journey even more painful.

The narrative necessarily moves ahead in time to Brady as a successful model.

What happened to Roth is something I’ll leave to the story.

Ripley does a good job reacquainting the main characters with each other but there’s so much else going on, that it’s pushed back to make page time for other elements to be addressed. There’s a prophecy, a demon brother for Roth who’s been ā€œtopsideā€ for years with a sudden dramatic backstory to deal with, and Legion , an entity who is literally a cast of thousands.

Somewhere, our main focus , the bond between Brady and Roth, starts to get a little bit fuzzy.

When the story pulls back towards them, it refocuses our connection to the characters, their relationship, and the perils they face.

There’s several twists that Ripley has in store for the readers and characters. A few were, I thought, bittersweet at the end but realistic given the damage done. One wasn’t as thought through or as well executed as it seemed. A all powerful being that couldn’t fully set everything right or destroy the one thing that set things up? I wondered about that.

Anyway, I was left with a few questions about the overall storytelling that I felt was unresolved at the end.

But the relationship, the main characters, how it all began? Wonderful. And so many other smaller things that made this a really enjoyable read.

Check it out. The entire collection is listed below.

Roth

From the moment I first saw Brady, I knew he was my mate. He thought I was just his imaginary friend and I let him believe that because at his side, I felt more complete than I ever had before. I didn’t mean to ever leave him, but I didn’t have much of a choice. I may be a Prince of Hell, but my father’s rule is absolute and out of his fear that I will someday overpower him, he had me imprisoned when I was just a child.

But, I was freed.

Rescued from where I’ve been held for far too many years, the only thing on my mind is claiming Brady as mine. I have lingered in the darkness without him for so long that seeing him now is like a breath of fresh air, but he’s starting to change. My father may have worried about who I would become, but it’s my mate he truly should have feared.

He is beautiful.

He is terrifying.

He is mine.

Brady

As a lonely child, Roth was the only thing I could count on. It didn’t matter that he wasn’t real, my imaginary friend was there when I needed someone. Roth meant everything when nobody else would let themselves get close to me. When I got older, he disappeared as make-believe things are supposed to and I put childhood behind me, moving on into a career on the runway as a sought after fashion model.

But Roth is back.

He says he’s a demon and I am his mate. We were created for each other, he tells me, but there are beings conspiring to keep us apart. They’re scared of what he will become when he claims me, but they should have feared me instead because I am no longer the lonely little boy I once was.

I am loved.

I am powerful.

I am his.

Review: The Demon’s Dealbreaker (Possessive Love) by Delaney Rain

Rating: 4.5 🌈

Books like these are a reason I enjoy reading collections. The Demon’s Dealbreaker (Possessive Love) by Delaney Rain is written by an author I’ve never read before and now I can add them to my list of writers I whose works I find very entertaining.

It starts with what should be a heartbreaking story and reveal to the main character on his birthday. His parents have sold him eight times to eight different otherworldly beings in exchange for various gifts/items. Without his knowledge and without each of the other beings knowing about the deals his parents made with the others.

It’s a dramatic open onto the moment where Dwyer Eamonn’s life shatters with the knowledge of his parents actions and the fact he’s been sold. To more than one person. To be specific to a witch, two fairies, a minor god, and four demons all of which have arrived to claim him.

To say they aren’t happy with the situation and his parents is an understatement.

Rain immediately sets about introducing the reader to all the claimants as well as giving us insight into Dwyer and his family history. It’s clear from the beginning that Dwyer’s parents have viewed him not as a child but as an asset and treated him just as coldly.

The format the author has constructed to allow him and us to learn more about the other characters brings a sense of urgency and connection to his fate. He has to learn about them and so must the reader. It’s a wonderful element.

However, it comes with the trigger warnings mentioned. There’s a scenario with a non con sex scene. I have issues with the ramifications from this episode in that I don’t think it shows the being ever realizing the cause and effect of his actions. And, imo, this is the only aspect of the storyline where I think the author doesn’t either fully explore here the gravity of a non consensual moment or it’s so weakens it with other elements that it might as well not have been used as all.

I think it’s supposed to be that, yes, all these otherworldly beings aren’t exactly ā€œnice peopleā€ or have the greatest of personalities, at least on the surface. Our impression of them evolves as Dwyer spends time getting to know each of them in their respective worlds.

Some naturally are more powerful as characters because of the fact that they have bigger roles in the storyline and in Dwyer’s present life. But each of them is interesting and layered with a unique background.

Rain is also fond of creating unusual sexual body shapes for the beings here, tentacles do sort of make an appearance, even if it’s just one. Just an fyi.

I so enjoyed the ending. Did I wish for a bit more of a revenge aspect? Sure but it still feels very satisfying. And I could certainly do with seeing more of the rest of the crew.

The collection is an odd mix but this one is a definite winner. Grab it up but do heed the warnings.

The Demon’s Dealbreaker: An MM Paranormal Romance

Blurb:

A witch, two fairies, a minor god, and four demons walk into a bar and suddenly Dwyer Eamonn’s life will never be the same.

Turns out that Dwyer’s parents promised him—their firstborn—as payment when they made eight different deals with various supernatural beings. At the stroke of midnight on his twenty-first birthday, every single claimant comes calling, ready to make Dwyer their heir.

Unable to deny them all, it’s up to Dwyer to choose which supernatural being he wants to become by spending time with each of them. What does a witch do all day? Do crossroads demons really hang out on street corners? He has eight hours to learn about them one at a time before he must make a decision.

Right away, one of them draws Dwyer in like no one ever has. He doesn’t want to become a demon, but he does want to be with one. Is that even possible? And since choosing an heir means these people want to shuffle off their mortal coil, is love reason enough to make one of them stay? After all, they’ll have forever once Dwyer makes his choice.

The Demon’s Dealbreaker is a M/M paranormal romance featuring a cranky cast of supernatural beings who thought they’d all made deals for a firstborn son, a human man who knew magic existed but not at this level, parents who deserve what they get, and the revelation of several incredible secrets as the dealbreaker becomes who he was always meant to be.
