My Funny Demon Valentine

Hell Bent, Book 1

De: Aurora Ascher

Narrado por: Kirsten Leigh

The sizzling chemistry of Brynne Weaver and laugh-out-loud humor of Kimberly Lemming meet Jenna Levine and Jeneane O'Riley's fresh spin on paranormal tropes in this wickedly funny, warm-hearted demon romance with just the right amount of spice from the bestselling author of SANCTUARY OF THE SHADOW.

Asmodeus, Prince of Hell, just wants to make music. Jazz, specifically. Unfortunately, he's a demon. And he's supposed to be evil.

Clearly, for Ash, a career as a musician isn't exactly an option. Plus, he's cursed. Sick of playing by the rules, Ash and his three brothers escape Hell in search of freedom on Earth. But it's harder than they thought to keep their enemies off their tail …

The four rogues quickly become the Underworld's Most Wanted, and if they're caught, the consequences will be dire. Yet everything changes for Ash when he meets a beautiful violinist who can see through his curse. It must be too good to be true, but, no matter the risk, he has to have her.

Evangeline Gregory is just your average human. She works at a jazz bar, plays gigs on weekends … and, apparently, hallucinates demons.

At least that's what Eva tells herself when, moments after she meets the man of her dreams, she sees him shift into a 7-foot-tall monster. Not believing her own eyes, Eva decides to investigate and soon finds herself caught in the middle of a supernatural clusterf**k of epic proportions. But Ash isn't the only one keeping secrets, and the search for answers reveals a shocking truth that will change the course of her life forever. Or maybe just doom it. Eva and Ash will learn the path to love can be complete Hell.

brothers and banter

I loved the banter between the brothers in this book. I love the banter between the FMC and MMC. The plot and storyline could have been a little better.

Demons, Drama, & Delight

3.8 ⭐️ 2 🌶️
This book? A hellish delight. Demons, spice, humor, and a plot that actually plots—what more could you want? Ash, our cursed, emotionally constipated demon, was an absolute mood, and Eva? A sass queen who saw right through his broody exterior. Their chemistry? Instant. Their banter? Chef’s kiss.

The brothers? Hilarious. Each one is a walking thirst trap with a personality to match, and yes, I need their books immediately. Asmodeus, King of Hell, being a lovesick fool? Never saw it coming, but I’m here for it.

Sure, the writing got a little extra with inner monologues, and the POV shifts had me rereading a few times, but did I care? No. Because I was too busy vibing with the magic, the drama, and the spice. If you like your romance paranormal, your demons unhinged, and your banter bantering, you need this in your life.

Meh

I do not like insta-love.

I had a hard time enjoying this book.

It was slightly below average for a paranormal romance. Just boring. No thrill factor.

If it wasn’t for the book club, it wouldn’t ever be one I would pick on my own to read.

This had so much comedy in it

I really enjoyed this story. It was spicy, and funny, and a perfect palette cleanser in between fantasy reads. It wasn’t a book that took itself too seriously. I found myself laughing and kicking my feet, giggling, and feeling giddy, and all the girly girls stuff. This was a perfect February book.

What a silly good time!

I think the audiobook definitely added to the vibes and comedy of the book. I really enjoyed this audiobook and prefer reading it with the audiobook than without, what a silly good time.

Amazing

Spicy romance, humor and cozy vibes, and an amazing plot. I can’t wait for the next book in the series!

Fun, snarky, and Sexy

I loved this story. It was a comedic romance, with 4 demons trying to navigate human lives, and tragically failing or succeeding because it was amusing to watch lol. Secrets, lies, found love, natural born enemies. I loved it and can’t wait to see what the other demons get up to in the next books!

the humor

the humor and banter was great. I loved seeing all povs. I couldn't put it down

The story line

Loved the story line and can’t wait for the next book! Love is everything even if you are not so evil!

Characters are great. I love Ash.

The story is funny, sweet, and spicy. The narrator’s did a great job and I enjoyed this book!
