Who knew a psycho murderess could be so entertaining while also charming me into letting go of a few deaths that she should have been held accountable for. Strangely, she was witty, funny, sexy and really a woman with a good heart if you can get past her killing tendencies. Throw in a boring, holds onto a vow to eternity, naive, serious, celibate demon with a mission to find Lucifer’s granddaughter’s pink dragon. The two are on a mission, wildly opposites, but attracted to each other anyway.
Working for Lucifer is right up the alley of these two. Katie didn’t have a great life as a human and right away you get her back story. She deflects with outrageous behavior that Lucifer adores and wants in his service. Katie is The Black Widow, sleep with ’em and kill ’em. Nobody knows she is The Black Widow, well, because she kills them before they can tell. Partnered with Xaphan, a half-demon enforcer, she can’t seem to tempt him as he resists her and treats her with respect even if he calls her names.
Xaphan is a half-demon who made a vow (so long ago) to a maiden, Roxanne, he fell in love with. He has stayed celibate for over three hundred years, thinking his sweet love has gone to heaven. When he meets the psycho, he struggles in her presence to even remember why he made that vow.
The two are hot on the trail of a pink dragon, conflicted with the emotions they have never felt and learning to dodge death in all its forms. This is one romance where you just go along for the ride meeting a sassy heroine in need of love and a serious demon needing to let loose. Luicier has to fill his army up some way, what better way than with a group of demon psycho babies! Never taken to seriously, it was a joy to let lose and go for a ride with these characters.
This can be read as a stand alone or with the series or even the original series. A fun afternoon read to get a really delightful ride!

About Eve Langlais
~ New York Times and USA Today Bestseller
Hello, my name is Eve and I am a Canadian author who loves to write hot romance, usually with werewolves, cyborgs or aliens.
I should warn you that I possess a twisted imagination and a sarcastic sense of humor something I like to let loose in my writing. I enjoy strong alpha males, and shifters. Lots of big, overprotective shifters. I am also extremely partial to aliens, the kind who like to abduct humans and then drive them insane…with pleasure. Do you like something a little darker? Then check out my cyborgs whose battle with humanity have captivated readers worldwide.
I love to write, and while I don’t always know what my mind is going to come up with next, I can promise it will be fun, probably humorous and most of all romantic, because I love a happily ever after.
Thanks so much for coming by and checking me out. If you’d like to know more, read some excerpts or find out what’s coming next, then please visit me at http://www.EveLanglais.com

You will get a kick out of just how sassy and how many one-liners this author throws out. It was a fun ride.

They cleanse my palate of too serious books.

I love how she turns a bad situation into something exciting and interesting. It’s an awesome series that keeps me wanting more.

Eve knows how to take an unlikable character and turn them into something fun and redeeming even if they work for Lucifer.
I was just thinking this might be my next Eve book, since I finished Kodiak Point series. I think you just made that a guarantee. Great review.
This is a short but fun series that will make you laugh out loud.
