Pleasure Unbound (Demonica, #1)

Yippee! Another new author for my list...like it's not big enough already. I'm so glad I got "Pleasure Unbound" by Larissa Ione. She's produced a really interesting and unusual world of demons where the 'bad' guys aren't all bad (but some of them sure are) and the 'good' guys aren't all good either. Her demon-infested world will suck you in and the next thing you know...it's 2:00 a.m. and you have to get up in less than 4 hours to go to work. Oh wait...that's me.
Demons aren't all bad. They also aren't all ugly either. And Eidolon? Yummy. A doctor! Sexy, thoughtful, more of a Beta with occasional Alpha bursts. Sounds just like the man your parents wanted you to marry, eh? Well apart from the whole demon thing. And did I mention he's a sex demon? Need I say more?
Tayla is a demon-slayer. At 16 she saw the thing that killed her mother and it certainly wasn't a crazed human like the cops said. Since then, she lives in the underworld unseen by most humans and hunts all demons. Until one saves her life. But aren't all demons evil? Don't they all kill? She has some hard truths to learn and difficult decisions to make a result. Sometimes her decisions weren't the best...welcome to the human race.
I liked the world. I liked the plotline. I liked the two lead characters, faults and all. Anyway, Ione hit a home run for me with this intricate story and I definitely plan on picking up Eidolon's brothers' stories when they are relased in March and April 2009.

It's really hot for a mainstream release. She has this, uh...problem. And it seems a sex demon is just what she needs! But don't we all?:D

I have it already on my to-read list and now I´m sure I have to buy it! By the way, where to you think we can fínd him... the sex demon we all seem to need?? I already checked ebay...lol

Oooh... I cant wait for this! How I have it on order from Barnes and Noble. By the way... do you think Amazon is always cheaper for books than B&N? I have a membership to B&N... but let me know what your opinion is when you have a chance! Heather
Ladies,Oh the sex demon has TWO brothers and their stories are up next!! But, a living one? Ummm, I'm guessing not and if there was one, I don't think I could afford him!!
Heather,
I'm not buying from Amazon cuz of the whole author/reviewer brouhaha...but yes, Amazon is usually cheaper and as long as you spend $25, they ship for free. HOWEVER, B&N also has the $25 free ship thingie and they ship via 3-day shipping whereas Amazon is media shipping. So, it's kind of a toss up...if you're like me and just CAN'T WAIT, then I don't mind paying a little extra in the book price at B&N for the quicker shipping...

Thanks Julie! I thought the super fast shipping was worth a couple extra dollars as well. Thanks for getting back to me!Heather
