"Got demon? Grace does. She's got more demon than she can saddle. In fact, she's got a sinfully sexy Crown Prince of Hell named Caspian. She's also got ten days to get rid of him or Bad Things shall ensue. See, her Russian mobster ex-boyfriend didn't take kindly to her smutty Mephistophelean contract. It's not that she's conspiring with fiends; that was his idea. It's that...more

Picked this one up for free during a promotion. Thank god, because if I'd spent money on it, I'd be genuinely grumpy. As it stands, I'm merely bemused.

I managed to make it a page or two into chapter 8. A common thought I had while reading was along the lines of how HARD the author was trying. Total exercise in how the effort to impress the reader with wittiness overrides the story itself. I didn't find it clever, I found it grating in the extreme.

The possibility this was destined for DNF-land h...more

A wonderful first novel in a series about the political arena that is Heaven and Hell. Who knew the positions of the Big Boss and the Devil were democratic? Certainly not me. :P This novel, while being a easy PNR has a great story and even better character development. DeWylde's imagination is matched only by her character's whit. Fans of Katie MacAlister and Molly Harper will love this series.
Grace is a powerful witch with ties to both Heaven and Hell. Her grandmother is the BABA YAGA witch, no...more

How to Lose a Demon in 10 Days is one of the funniest books I've read in a very long time. Grace has ten days to shake her Russian mobster ex and save her son.So what does Grace do? She summons a demon to do her bidding, and what she gets is not just any demon but Caspian who is not just any old demon but the Prince of Hell. Add in an entire cast that runs the gamut from a dead hooker turned dominatrix demon gunning for his soul to the devil himself and you have a laugh a minute ride. Typically...more

REVIEW ORIGINALLY POSTED AT BITTEN BY BOOKS REVIEW SITE (http://www.bittenbybooks.com/56688/ho...)

Grace is a woman scorned. Her Russian mobster ex-boyfriend kidnapped her son and has refused to let her see him in four years. A woman can only take so much before she reaches a breaking point, especially when that woman is the granddaughter of one of the most powerful witches to walk this earth. Grandma didn’t raise no fool, so Grace knows exactly what she’s doing when she summons Caspian, one of t...more

“Looks like you’re both demon and angel, my love.”
She smiled up at him. “Just like every other woman that’s ever walked the earth.”

How to Lose A Demon in 10 Days is not your average romance.

Keep in mind that this is an adult book, and there are explicit details!

Grace is a witch, whose ex-boyfriend is making her life a living hell. Grace called upon a demon to help her with her problem. What she got was Caspian a crowned prince of hell. He is bound to help her with her problems but he wants some...more

3 star = pretty good. I finished up the cheapie (2.99 on kindle) How to Lose a Demon in 10 Days,it was not too romancey even though it started with lots of smexy stuff. There is also a whole lotta crass and sass from the leading lady (not quite up to laurenston or lexi george but kind of that idea) and from other reviews I saw either you thought it was funny or trying too hard to be funny. I think I actually felt both ways as certain points in the story.

The first part of the book was more on the...more

Never mess with a woman who knows how to summon a demon, and not just any demon either to get revenge on you. Graces scum of the earth boyfriend Michael finds this out the hard way when she summons Caspian, a Crown Prince of Hell to get back at him.

I loved that Grace knew she was summoning a demon and had no regrets about doing it. Caspian won me over on the first page he was on. He and Grace were a great match for one another and their chemistry was sizzling hot. There is a lot of humor in thi...more

My Review
I received a copy of this book from Kensington for an honest review. Grace called upon a demon to help her with her ex. What she got was Caspian a crowned prince of hell. He is bound to help her with her problems but he wants something in return. He wants Grace. Grace fights her feelings for Caspian and has to think of ways to send him back. Her ex gives her 10 days to get rid of him or her nightmare will become true. She has to decide between the demon she is falling for or the thing s...more

Grace is sick of her creepy ex threatening to take away her son. He’s already stolen the first two years and she is unwilling to let him steal any more. She’s tried the courts, but she’s ready to get down and dirty to give him what he deserves. It’s time to call the Crown Prince of Hell, Caspian. When she summons him, he is so taken with her that he agrees to make her mobster of a boyfriend miserable if she’ll agree to be his – whenever, however, and for as long as it takes to wear the guy down....more

Plenty of laughs, and likeable characters. Grace summons the demon Caspian to get back at her ex. Her ex (Michael) is a low life gangster like jerk who kills and hurts people for fun while he's trying to become a demon himself. When Caspian curses Michael with demon crabs and then with atomic intestinal issues, you're bound to laugh out loud while reading it. Great twists on who her parents and Grandpa are. During the course of her paying Caspian for his part they start to develop feeling for ea...more

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. I did not receive any compensation for my review, and the views expressed herein are my own.

The first book in DeWylde’s 10 Days series has all the elements of a great paranormal romance: Strong female protagonist, swoony alpha hero, and lots of red-hot action!

Grace is a witch, whose ex-boyfriend is making her life a living hell. When Grace calls upon the Powers That Be for help, Caspian – the Crown Prince of Hell - respon...more

Grace tiene su vida patas arriba. Su abuela ha muerto recientemente dejándola sola en el mundo, no tiene trabajo y su ex novio mafioso tiene secuestrado a su hijo bajo amenaza de muerte. ¿Qué haría una bruja buena ante semejante tesitura?...pues hacer un pacto con un demonio. El problema es que a su llamada no acude un demonio cualquiera, sino que responde, ni más ni menos que el príncipe heredero al trono infernal, el sexy y descarado Caspian. Por encima...more

Fun start to what looks to be a great series!

Grace is in need of some demon assistance. For four years she has been battling her ex and she has finally decided to call in the big guns. Those so called guns come in the form of one Crown Prince of Hell, Caspian. Oh yummy, yum-yum. The old adage of tall, dark and handsome totally describes Caspian. Oh, you can also throw in sex-on-a-stick and walking wet dream while you are at it. Revenge comes first and then well maybe she can….oh never m...more

Ok, so I ALMOST gave up on this book.

Yah I’m ashamed. After the first couple chapters, it didn’t seem at all like the type of book I typically enjoy, and so I went in search of other reviews, hoping to see whether or not the book picked up, or if I was wasting my time.

About 3 chapters in, I’d yet to see the story everyone seemed to be raving about, BUT an eternal optimist, I decided to give it one last shot, and I’ve gotta say, I’m extremely pleased.

About halfway through, I realized, like so m...more

Review originally posted on my blog: A Book Obsession..

In a last ditch effort to give her ex-boyfriend, the Russian Mobster the comeuppance he deserves, Grace summons a demon to do her will. Of course she gets much more than she bargains for when Caspian, the Crown Prince of Hell shows up. In their bargaining, Grace had been expecting a price, but she never could have imagined Caspian's demands to be so carnal. But if sleeping with a denizen of hell is bad, falling for one is even worse, and she...more

Ok call me crazy but anyone think that after 4 years Grace was over doing by calling a demon.

She got the hot sexy Caspian, and he wanted sex.
Her ex told her to send him back and that when it got really funny, because she tried everything from died hooker to peanut butter.


This is a mixture of laugher, sex, love and stir and you get a good storyteller or a funny one.

I immediately loved this story. The characters were fantastic, the story line easy to follow and interesting. The sexy times were indeed sexy. I look forward to reading more from Saranna Dewylde in the future as this one surprised me by how much I really enjoyed it.
Jackie (Literary Escapism)
Quite honestly, I didn't enjoy this one as much as I did the second one. Actually, the more I think about it, it had a lot of the same flaws as How to Marry a Warlock, just without the great side characters. I loved Hades, but it just didn't my attention as well.
Jennifer Crump
What a great story. I was laughing non-stop at some parts of this story. Caspian is such a great character. Grace is a strong willed women seeking revenge on her ex. Together they make an awesome team and they quickly fall in love but are kicking and screaming the entire time. Caspian helps Grace seek her revenge but doesn’t realize that Grace has been set up from the very beginning. He has to fight for her life and realizes she is his Happily Ever After and he is hers. Can a witch and a Crown P...more

I would classify this more as erotic paranormal. I almost stopped reading at the whole needing to save her kid part but then it redeemed it self when it revealed this was a fake memory a few sentences later. It was a quick, entertaining read.
Su Fertall white
The sex started early and kept going throughout the book. It got a little too descriptive of the violence at points for my taste, but it was amusing and great for a quick light read. Fun take on angels and demons and the heirarchy of Hell.
Jessica ♡~ Book&Coffee Lover ~♡
This is by far the funniest demon book I have ever read..

Grace thinks she can summon the Crown Prince of Hell to do a little job for her and that's it.. Oh how wrong she is about that! :) We got some really hot sizzling (demon) sex in this book! Some really funny moments, and a Crown Prince of Hell to die for, he's simply demonlicious! + a really good story.
Tracey
How in the world does Raphael fit into this? Sure just throw in random people for the heck of it. Let the reader decide how to make it fit. The ending just felt too rushed. Left alot to be desired.
Tera
Ok read. It was a little overly descriptive - found myself scanning over parts of the book. I did like Grace and Caspian banter with each other. It made the book enjoyable.
Ceri
This book will make you laugh out loud. This book was a weird combination of silly fun and some really hard core love scenes. So if you want light and funny with something to fan the flames, this is your book.
Ruth Trane
quirky, humorous and oh-so-devastatingly hot! a must read! i love the witty bantering between Grace and Caspian.. this is one of the best I've read so far...
Tammy
This was a really fun, light read with many laugh out loud moments. Yea it was cheesy in places but that just added to the humor. Reminded me of Rowe's Immortally Sexy series.
Valeria de Alquimia
I really wanted to like this book.Good idea.Boring read. Separated mom wants two things: revenge and her son back.
Rabiesonmyshoe

Audrey
