"Holy hot grand piano keys! This one hooked me from the first chapter and didn't let go until the very end. Ash was so sweet and lovable but still had the vibe of a man that would bring you the head of their enemies. Eva was strong and held her own. Combined, these two make for a deliciously devilish romance." ―Kimberly Lemming, USA Today Bestselling author ofThat Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon on My Funny Demon Valentine
