It drives my dad nuts I'm such a goody two shoes, but the fact that I'm a virgin makes smoke pour from his ears. Literally. See, I'm determined to save myself for love, but daddy dear, more commonly known as Lucifer, just wants me to stop being an embarrassment. Maybe he'll get his wish because I met a hunk in my bar. We're talking serious sex on a stick-or so my sister Bambi likes to say. Could he be the one? My last boyfriend thought he'd gain infamy by killing me. He's infamous all right. Dad had him mounted on the wall surrounding his palace, his version of modern art titled, Touch my baby girl and die. Cute in a twisted way. But my love life isn't the only thing bothering me. There's someone threatening the denizens of Hell, and while my daddy says to not worry my pretty little head about it, I can't help but get drawn into the fight because whoever is behind the attacks keeps coming after me. Bring it. I'm not afraid to protect myself because being a princess of Hell means that sometimes I have to grab a demon by the horns and slap it around a bit. Nothing in my life is ever simple, and I blame that on my dad, Lucifer. Assassination attempts, hellhounds, and a rebellion in Hell. A piece of cake compared to the turmoil in my heart. No one ever told me love would be the toughest battle of all.… (más)

This book is really cute. I laughed out loud more than once. Great story. Can't wait to read the last book of the series. :) ( )

This 2 star rating hurts me more than Eve Langlais, I'm sure. I've noticed that almost everyone loves this book.

I loved the first book in this series and I'm also an Eve Langlais fan.

But this book felt so wrong to me. It...bothered me quite a bit.

As usual I loved Muriel and everything about her. I felt that her man was not really even there and the 3rd for their trio felt like a cardboard cut-out.

But that wouldn't have bothered me too much if not for one thing:

Muriel.

Eve wanted some hot m/f/m action going on.

Muriel wanted to be in a monogamous relationship with the man of her dreams.

Houston, we have a problem.

It was impossible for me to find the story hot when I was completely distracted by Muriel's trepidation and unhappiness. Muriel did NOT want to bang another man so the whole set up to put her there felt...

...hollow. And harsh. And instead of it feeling sexy I felt...sad. Maybe it shows how skillful a writer Eve Langlais is in that I really felt bad for Muriel. I couldn't enjoy the sex scenes because I knew the guilt/fear/sadness/grief cycle that Muriel would go through. Later, I couldn't really believe that Muriel went through such a 180 emotional transformation.

Sometimes I've read authors who talk of their characters not working with them. That they had to fight their characters or struggle with them or force them in a direction that they [the author] didn't really feel that [the character] wanted to go. And I've never really understood that. But I think I've ran across it twice this year now. Both with authors I normally enjoy.
