My Thoughts: I received this book from the publisher via Net Galley and man, oh man, how fortuitous it was that I noticed this book and submitted a request to review it. Never having read anything by this author, I was not familiar with her voice or writing style, but after reading the description of this book, I couldn’t resist. Lilith Straight isn’t the type of woman I would seek out a friendship with. She even puts it quite eloquently, herself. She’s the woman the rest of us want to be. From the better looking husband and amazing home and money out the wazoo, the rest of us peasants can only stand on the sidelines and dream of that kind of life. But then everything changes for Lilith. She loses it all. Husband, house and money all go bye-bye. Can it get any worse? Lilith finds out first hand just how worse it can and does get. Lilith gets hit by a car and dies; oh and then she wakes up in Hell. Still not that bad, you say? Lilith finds out her ancestor made a deal with the Devil and her soul, along with the souls of every female descendant are in service to Hell as a Succubus. The fine print puts Lilith between a rock and a hard place when she learns that if she refuses her assignment, then her young daughter is up next.

This book was a lot of fun. Though Lilith is dealt a very bad hand, she tries to make the best of it, trying to find some balance between her succubus duties and her Mom duties, all while keeping it a secret from her friends and family. Throw in a sexy incubus that Lilith spends a lot of time with and a demon or two, Lilith has her hands full. In case you are wondering how demons shop, this book will show you and trust me, they don’t hit the racks at Ross or Nordstrom!

My Final Verdict: This book was highly entertaining. The plot flowed smoothly and the characters were interesting and easy to relate to. I liked Lilith immediately and couldn’t wait to see what she would do next. She struggles with authority and it will be interesting to find out what is in store for Lilith next.
