Demon Hunting #2
Demon Hunting in the Deep South
The warrior and the wallflower . . .
Shy, self-conscious Evie Douglass tries to stay under the radar, especially when her nemesis Meredith Peterson, aka The Death Starr, is anywhere around. Meredith and her bitch posse of skinny girlfriends have tormented Evie since the seventh grade, calling her names like The Whale and Thunder Thighs.
Evie tries to stay invisible, but that’s not an easy thing for a plus-sized gal to do in a small town like Hannah, Alabama. She finds it doubly hard to avoid Meredith’s wrath once she takes a job at the lumber mill. You see, Meredith’s husband is Evie’s new boss. Translation: more torture time for The Death Starr.
Evie thinks things couldn’t get much worse until the morning she finds Meredith’s bloody body sprawled across her desk. Typical Meredith, she gets herself dead mere days after a very public scene in which Meredith accuses Evie of having an affair with her husband. Worse, the murder weapon is found in Evie’s car.
Suddenly, Evie is the Number One suspect in a sensational murder case. But she’s got bigger problems. Hannah is infested with demons—soul sucking, body snatching creatures of evil—and, for some reason, they want Evie. The only thing standing between Evie and death or possible possession is a hunky blond demon slayer named Ansgar.
Ansgar is a Dalvahni warrior, a supernaturally gorgeous race whose sole purpose is to hunt down and capture rogue demons.
Evie could almost swear that Ansgar is interested in more than demons. He seems interested in her. Ridiculous, of course, because he’s sex on two legs and she’s…
Well, she’s Whaley Douglass.
To add to Evie’s troubles, Meredith doesn’t even have the decency to stay dead. She shows back up as a ghost and she’s more of a beyotch than ever. Meredith has deathnesia—she can’t remember who killed her—leaving Evie to solve the mystery herself, or go to jail for a murder she didn’t commit.

About the author
Lexi George
9 books236 followersLexi grew up in South Alabama in a rural community with one flashing light and a small country store that sold everything from gas to pickled eggs. Her father, a circuit judge, collected clocks — chiming clocks that binged and banged all night long in rhythm with the trains that chugged and wailed down the railroad track not a hundred yards from Lexi’s girlhood home. Needless to say, Lexi is a very sound sleeper. And to this day, the lonely sound of a train whistle does something to her.
She grew up surrounded by cotton fields and wide open spaces. She was a major tomboy. Dressed in a boy cousin’s hand-me-downs, she ran barefoot, climbed trees, played in ditches, and picked sun-warmed dew berries off their prickly vines. Sometimes, her parents drove her into town to play with her city cousins. They played dress-up, made forts, charged up and down dirt mounds in noisy games of King of the Hill and chased the mosquito truck on their bikes.
Lexi’s mother was a high school English teacher who instilled in her daughter a love of reading and books. The muse first struck Lexi in the third grade, when she began to write poetry. Bad poetry.
She continued to flay the English language throughout high school and college.
And then she went to law school and the muse left her.
The muse HATED law school.
Lexi wasn’t too crazy about it either, especially the rule against perpetuities, but with a public relations major and English minor, it seemed the sensible thing to do.
After passing the Alabama state bar exam on her first attempt, Lexi got a job as an appellate attorney with a big state agency where she’s happily worked ever since. Her day job involves writing briefs and reading criminal transcripts – transcripts where people do rude things to one another.
In Lexi’s experience, the human capacity for rudeness is unlimited. No doubt, a daily diet of man’s inhumanity to man . . . and woman . . . and children . . . and dogs and cats is somewhat responsible for Lexi’s desire to escape reality in the pages of a good book. Preferably a romance, her favorite genre.
Demon Hunting in DixieSome fifteen years ago, the muse abruptly returned from Fiji or Wawbeek or wherever the heck she went, and Lexi started writing again. Novels, not poetry. She joined a writer’s group and wrote and wrote and wrote.
DEMON HUNTING IN DIXIE, a paranormal romance, is her debut novel. It is peopled with funny characters and sexy demon hunters and lots of supernatural woo woo. And the other kind of ‘woo woo’ as well.
The story has a happy ending.
Since being traumatized by OLD YELLER at the age of nine, Lexi is all about the happily ever after.

Demon Hunting in the Deep South by Lexi George
Demon Hunting series book 2. Paranormal romance. Best read as part of the series.
Demons and demon hunters have invaded the small town of Homer, Alabama. Evie had her memories deliberately erased, but now that Ansgar has returned, she feels like she knows him enough to ask for his help figuring out who killed Meredith.
I did not like the consistent body shaming throughout the story. Meredith is a nasty ghost, we can all agree. But the continued insults were unnecessary and way too overdone.
I did not like that Ansgar had an off-page sexual encounter trying to forget Evie. It’s explained as an accepted habit in his world.
I didn’t like the church references.
I do like that Evie is as positive as she can be and her thoughts are for everyone else. I love that her shyness was overcome and she grew more confident by the end of the story.
I found all the southernisms amusing such as “Crackers and cheese” used as an exclamation point or statement of surprise.

I was feeling a bit stressed due to some doggy aging issues happening in my house, so I decided to head back to Hannah, Alabama for a serving of Lexi George's zany southern colloquialisms and over-the-top southern stereotypes. Of course I can't forget the skeazy demons and yummalicious demon hunters which are congregating in this podunk town full of unique and endearingly hilarious characters.
Our Dalvahni demon hunter in this installment is Ansgar, who featured previously in Demon Hunting in Dixie as Brand's sidekick and partner. In the first story, Ansgar was taken with Addy's BFF, Evangeline. Things seemed to be going well between them until Evie was possessed by a demon and Ansgar had to shoot an arrow through her heart. After that, Ansgar thought Evie would be better off if he erased her memory and went on his demon-hunting way. Ansgar was a bit one-dimensional for me. He got the job done as a hero, but he seemed like Brand 2.0 - there wasn't a whole lot of difference in their characters. That being said, I still love the uber-literal personalities of the Dalvahni warriors. Their manner of speech cracks me up repeatedly, even when I have to read their dialogue more than once to figure out what they are talking about... that even makes it funnier.
Evangeline has one of the worst self-esteem problems that I have read... and I hated that she was such a doormat. Having been bullied by the mean girls of the town since she was school-age, Evie seems to have given up. She is a mild meek mouse that buries her beauty in baggy clothes and slumped shoulders. So I was glad to see Evie shedding her insecurity and embracing her inner sassypants. I hate that it took a guy (or demon hunter) to bring it out of her... but whatever it took, at least now she is standing up for herself and embracing her perfectly imperfect self. Something we have heard of a lot lately in the romance community. (Should I post a picture of a DQ Blizzard here?)
I found the demonic subplot of this book to be more interesting than the last. Death Star Meredith has been murdered and Evie is being framed... it was like a supernatural southern soap opera. Plus there is a new outrageous character introduced (Nicole) and her little demonic dog, Frodo the Allihuahua (alligator chihuahua). So you can expect even more silly southernisms like:

It was slicker than a rat’s ass in a Crisco factory.Unfortunately for me, my dog-based depression cast a pall over my reading and I didn't quite enjoy this one as much as I did the first. However once we started to see some improvement in the doggy health department, I was able to get into the story more and ended up liking how everything turned out. I am looking forward to reading Beck's story next in Demon Hunting in a Dive Bar.

Demon Hunting in the Deep south is written by Lexi George it is the second book in the series and it's by far my favorite.
This story takes place in a small town of Hannah, Alabama where there are many demons and demonized and then there are also your very handsome sexy demon hunters that all of running around this town hiding in plain site and living among them.
My heart broke for evie and where her story ended in the first book and how her story was left with Ansgar.
Ansgar is a 10,000 year old immortal who come off very much macho and evie is this shy and quiet women who once she meets Ansgar he brings put a whole different side of her and that's why let work so well together.
I cant wait to return to Hannah, Alabama for my next adventure in Demon hunting in a dive bar.

As I was about to write this review, I was thinking about mentioning how this series’ style is Charley Davidson (series/character by Darynda Jones) meets Robyn Peterman. Then, I happen to peruse my review of book 1 from a year ago and see that I mentioned the Charley Davidson series in that one as well! The quips and quick-witted banter of the characters along with the supernatural element give me those Charley Davidson vibes, while the outright ridiculousness is everything I love about Robyn Peterman’s writing style and characters!
If you like Darynda Jones and Robyn Peterman, I really think you’ll enjoy this series. It is vastly entertaining.
This book is Evie’s story. Evie, a wallflower with body image issues, blooms into Evangeline, her inner badass that she found in book 1 but lost along with all of her memories of her time with Ansgar. It was awesome seeing the bits of Evangeline trying to break free as Ansgar re-entered her life for what she believed was the first time. I love Evie sense of right and want to help others. While there was a lot of focus on her body image issues, I really thought she was using those to hide her much wider fears and anxieties. Evangeline is who emerges when she stops overthinking and embraces who she is!

Actual Rating: 2.5 Stars
I really like this author's wacky sense of humor. Her characters stand out to me with their all around silliness and lightheartedness. Reading this provides me much needed laughs to detox from some other more heavy readings. So I really wanted to like this one.
After getting snippets of Evie and Ansgar's romance in Demon Hunting in Dixie I was really excited to read their story here. Unfortunately, although I really liked Evie and was rooting for her HEA and loved watching her re-emerge as a confident and kick butt h, I really disliked Ansgar.
This douche move by Ansgar was in contrast to his previous character. In book one he is standoff-ish with everyone but Evie. I had such high expectations for him! Something that really bothered me was that in book one we only get bits and pieces of their time together. Than in book 2 we don't get any rehash of their time before. Its again only hinted at that he was so sweet and caring but that is all forgotten because the book picks up right after book one. So Evie at first doesn't remember and then when she does it's all about the now. It just felt incomplete. Like if your not going to tell us in detail what happened to them in book one, at least give up something to build on in book 2. I didn't want to just read that he'd done nice things for her before, I wanted to see him do them or at least do more now that she remembers.
Still enjoyed it enough that I'm going to check out Demon Hunting in a Dive Bar because Beck and Conall? Yes please!!! (Not to mention the Shifty Sheriff!)

Fans of Kerrelyn Sparks and Molly Harper will devour Demon Hunting in the Deep South.
It had everything I love in a paranormal romance plus fantastic comedic relief.
Evie's character has had it rough. Mother died young, dad turned into a drunk, kids making fun of her weight through school and beyond; you'd be right in assuming she doesn't have the greatest self esteem. Now, don't get the wrong idea, she's not simpering in a dark room wailing about her life, but she's not having a great time either. She's just coasting through trying to stay under, around, AS FAR away from the radar as she can get. Be polite and unmemorable seem to be her philosophy in life. All that changes and she's thrust into the limelight when the town's long standing queen-bee shows up dead in her office.
After thousands of years of existence the supposed emotionless Ansgar can't understand why he's so drawn to Evangeline Douglass. He's tried everything to get her out of system since meeting her. He erased her memory of him and went back to his own dimension but just can't get her out of his mind. He finally decides to return to Hannah but with Evangeline being accused of murder, his own feelings of unworthiness, and that pesky problem of demons trying to abduct her he may never get to explore his new emotions, including love.
Demon Hunting in the Deep South's story was great, but what really made it for me were the citizens of Hannah, Alabama. They have to be some of the craziest characters I've ever read. Even the pets have huge personalities! From the Mayor's pet possum Priscilla, to Frodo the finger munching, alligator-chihuahua. You just can't get away from the hilarious imagination of Lexi George.
I can't recommend Demon Hunting in the Deep South enough. Angsty romance, self realization, kick-butt demon hunting, and enough hilarious hijinx to keep you laughing all the way through. I also suggest reading this one with a partner. There are soo many funny lines that you'll want to laugh out loud with someone else
"Kama Kazi chickens, a bitchy ghost, and now Free Willie.
And it's only my first day in Hannah. This is some crazyass town."
*I didn't read the first in this series (Demon Hunting in Dixie), but wasn't left with a 'what the heck is going feel' that can happen when jumping into a series out of order. But you can be sure that since I loved this one so much I already have my 'next to-read' book picked out :)

Demon Hunting in the Deep South by Lexi GeorgeMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
I finished Demon Hunting In The Deep South and loved it, while it was not quite as hilarious as Demon Hunting In Dixie it may have been a better book as far as plot. I give both of them 4.5 Stars and the first book maybe higher since it caught me by surprise and had me almost rolling in the floor laughing. This book would have been better if we had more of the dog who I loved when referring to the vet as "the House of Pain" . The first book was a fun romp and this one was closer to a murder mystery/love story so it really was hard to compare except for the humor which I loved in both. These are books you need to get and save for when you really feel down, they will give you a lift and a laugh. The author is expanding her universe a bit and I can see setups for many future stories for the denizens of Hannah, Alabama but a few of us feel like we have an inside track on these books since things like a funeral banner that read "Say Hello To The Bear For Us" is immediately understood by people like me :) Highly recommended but you almost have to read the books in order to get full enjoyment. It also becomes apparent that Ms George is growing as a writer since this book taken on just the literary level (yes that is hard) shows a lot of growth as a writer, I can hardly wait for the next installment of the adventures of all the creatures in Hannah :)

I have mixed feelings about the Demon Hunting series. I absolutely love the world building and scene setting in this series and in this book. Lexi George's individual take on demon hunting and the various paranormal creatures that live in this world is unique and engaging. The characters are quirky and amusing, and I love the setting of a small southern town overrun by demons. The heroine of this particular book, Evie, is an interesting character for whom it is easy to feel sympathy. But I have to give this book 3 stars. This is because the "romance" central to this books is one dimensional and a bit stomach turning. An emotionally insecure woman finds her "confidence" because a man is attracted to her and sweeps her off her feet. Even when she protests, he MUST get his way. Any time she disagrees she is easily persuaded once she blinded by lust... and this is billed as her becoming empowered and more confident. I am just far too tired of weak willed heroines who are almost enslaved by sexual attraction. This book would have gained a star or two if there was a little bit of give and take between Evie and Ansgar; I did genuinely love everything about the book, and the book that preceded it, aside from the "romance".

3.5- Chaos, but fun- I wanted some good old Southern fun, nothing too serious and this was it. It was filled with crazy overblown Southern colloquialisms and overblown typecasts. Then to fracture the pacing there is the Demon Hunters use of formal or archaic language.( I had to stop and look-up a couple of words.) Reading this story was like being in a crazy tornado. There was so much going on and some many side players and they were all unique/weird.(Freaky) I went through such a gamut of feelings, I was snickering, appalled, thrilled, and pissed off. Yes, I did say I enjoyed it, so stay with me. The Demon Hunters are Hotter than Hot, I know because every woman in the book said so, quite openly, aloud. Strangest creation in this book- Frodo, not a hot thing, but a Chihuahua Alligator, 'ouff' he's terrible.
This is not a serious book, it pokes fun and sometimes stabs it at you. I'll read the next one and may go back and read the first.

Demon Hunting in the Deep South was just as quirky and action packed as the first book. I love the weird little town of Hannah, Alabama and thought Lexi George did a great job of building a believable world where demons, demonoids, sexy demon hunters and humans all run amuck. The characters are quick witted and talk a mile a minute. I was heartbroken with how we left off with Evie and Ansgar at the end of book one and desperately wanted them to have their HEA. Maybe Ansgar comes off a little heavy handed and macho, but being that he's a 10,000 year old immortal being his personality worked for me. Evie comes off as quiet and shy so it was nice to see her character development through the series. I will be returning back to Hannah asap!
August 9, 2021
Book 2 is just as quirky as book 1 in Hannah, AL. This is shy, self-conscious Evie and the hunky Ansgar who is hiding few secrets from Evie. I thought at times the book was getting too convoluted with to many peoples, secrets and I thought for sure Evie and Ansgar would never get together. At the half way point it started to pick up and by the ending I was interested on how everything was going to come together. I did not suspect bully Meredith's killer other than I was sure it wasn't Trey. Of course, while there is a hea, now I have to wonder what deal Trey is making that can't possible be a good thing.

I have read a few more of these. One was a tome of detailed sex scenes between beautiful people (or the lusty thoughts tiding them over until they could get together) with thin threads of story line. Two had moments that did make me laugh. All do insta-love and pages upon pages of play-by-play sex. If they didn’t have the non-stop lust /sex, I’d probably recommend them to friends who enjoy a very light read.
Pretty sure this was one of the humorous ones, but I was snowed in without internet and read through the downloaded series quickly, so differentiating which was which isn’t standing out.
Point off for cliff hanger ending.

July 30, 2021This was not as slapstick as the first, whic suprised me. It had a tone of character growth, for everyone, which also surprised me. This is shaping up to be one of the series I go to when I need something funny, but I still want Substance. Evvie, poor thing, finally breaks out and becomes the woman she always was, and this time for real. And the growing relationship between Shep and Lena is also amusing and serious and wonderful. As much as i was expecting this book to make me laugh, I am really glad the hijinks were less and the characters got a chance to shine.

Paranormal romcom is one of my favorite genres and Lexi George's Demon Hunting series provides that in spades. Her characters are quirky and fun. I love that she get laughs from southern stereotypes without resorting to mockery. The main characters in this book, Evie and Ansgar, started their relationship in book but it was interrupted. Although Ansgar made some questionable decisions in book one and off page between the books, he really redeems himself. He is great with Evie and helps her gain confidence. The storyline in the book is interesting and the solution to the mystery took me by surprise. The cast of book one is still here and some great new characters are introduced. I can't wait to read Beck and Conall's story.

Book Description:
Demon Hunting in the Deep South
The warrior and the wallflower . . .
Shy, self-conscious Evie Douglass tries to stay under the radar, especially when her nemesis Meredith Peterson, aka The Death Starr, is anywhere around. Meredith and her bitch posse of skinny girlfriends have tormented Evie since the seventh grade, calling her names like The Whale and Thunder Thighs.
Evie tries to stay invisible, but that’s not an easy thing for a plus-sized gal to do in a small town like Hannah, Alabama. She finds it doubly hard to avoid Meredith’s wrath once she takes a job at the lumber mill. You see, Meredith’s husband is Evie’s new boss. Translation: more torture time for The Death Starr.
Evie thinks things couldn’t get much worse until the morning she finds Meredith’s bloody body sprawled across her desk. Typical Meredith, she gets herself dead mere days after a very public scene in which Meredith accuses Evie of having an affair with her husband. Worse, the murder weapon is found in Evie’s car.
Suddenly, Evie is the Number One suspect in a sensational murder case. But she’s got bigger problems. Hannah is infested with demons—soul sucking, body snatching creatures of evil—and, for some reason, they want Evie. The only thing standing between Evie and death or possible possession is a hunky blond demon slayer named Ansgar.
Ansgar is a Dalvahni warrior, a supernaturally gorgeous race whose sole purpose is to hunt down and capture rogue demons.
Evie could almost swear that Ansgar is interested in more than demons. He seems interested in her. Ridiculous, of course, because he’s sex on two legs and she’s…
Well, she’s Whaley Douglass.
To add to Evie’s troubles, Meredith doesn’t even have the decency to stay dead. She shows back up as a ghost and she’s more of a beyotch than ever. Meredith has deathnesia—she can’t remember who killed her—leaving Evie to solve the mystery herself, or go to jail for a murder she didn’t commit. www.lexigeorge.com
This is a really fun book out on the 31st of last month. I read it in about eight-hours. Some hot guys, mild vanilla intimacy that isn't too explicit and some truly boosted self-esteem made the story a pleasant past time. The main hero reminds me of THOR as played by Chris Hemsworth. Not so bad, right? The heroine mas a busty Reba McIntyre, especially in the hair description.
The story, like Molly Harper's Jane Jameson series, is filled with regional flavor. Medium sized town with the rich and the just getting by; debs, dilettantes and the down trodden. The food served in the local diner made my mouth water, some regional foods, like Conecuh sausage made me look it up (it's a brand of smoked sausage).
Why is it that when you become a supernatural you can eat whatever you want and not gain weight? No playing into our fantasies there, not at all.
Although this is the second book in a series, backstory is not a problem. There is reference to a past between Evie and Ansgar, but it is deftly handled. I can't say the story was surprising, but I enjoyed it. The story includes a murder mystery with one or two twists to enjoy. Sometimes you want to have a good idea what's around the bend and then be right. I liked the character of Evie as she changed from a self-deprecating mouse into a woman who had a voice. Some of the characters are a little silly, but the book doesn't have pretentions otherwise.
Many paranormal Romances have species and characters which have difficult to remember and pronounce names. George does have a few names that aren't familiar but which are easily recalled and pronounced. It's a good example of naming that doesn't require a glossary or family tree.
One thing: the cover shows a dark-haired man, and Ansgar is repeatedly described as blonde.
A funny paranormal romance that makes a light and light-hearted vacation read.

Review posted at Books to Brighten your Mood
Demon Hunting in the Deep South is one of those books I find it extremely hard to review from time to time. For different reasons in most cases, but difficult nonetheless. And it's so hard for my to rate and review this one because even though I knew that it was part of a series, I was under the impression that it could be read as a stand alone just as well. But that, was a mistake.
Let me explain. Demon Hunting in the Deep South, has a different set of characters from the first book in the Demon Hunting series BUT the same characters that are now the main couple, had a rather extended presence in the first book of the series, Demon Hunting in Dixie. And when I say extended, I mean that they had so much history, that I couldn't possibly keep up with their story. There were so many things that tied Evie and Ansgar together, so many things that happened between them in the first book that no matter how many explanations the author gave me, I always felt that there were some pieces missing.
And that feeling of loss extends to the world building and plot as well. Lexi George does an amazing job with the complexity of her world but not everything is explained in detail. Or in enough detail to be able to grasp exactly how everything works. Granted, some things are explained but there are many that are not making it difficult for me not only to understand how the world ticks but to evaluate the author's ability to present her world to her readers. I simply don't know if things are left unexplained or were explained in the first book.
For example, in Demon Hunting in the Deep South you will meet a diversity of paranormal creatures: demons, fairies, ghosts and lots of magic. There are so many different paranormal elements but they don't form a solid world I'm afraid... I can't see any connection between them. They are just thrown in the story, without so much of an explanation or reason for existence. Nothing. And as I said, I don't know if those explanations I was seeking were given on the first book of the series, or not at all. SO, you see my problem in making my mind about the world building and the writing style...
Apart from that, there's one thing I immensely enjoyed about this book though: the sarcastic tone and humour of the author. Lexi George simply has a voice that stands out and knows how to write a villain who you love to hate. And that is Meredith. She may not be the main villain but she's definitely not angel material. But I loved her to pieces even when she was a total bitch. Especially when she was one :)
As far as Evie and Ansgar are concerned, there where things I liked and disliked in both of them. In Evie I liked how she developed throughout the novel and how loyal she was, but she was far too shy for my taste and honestly, the part where she gets arrested and her main concern is that she's commando, made me roll my eyes more than once.
Ansgar on the other hand, is your typical, drool-worthy alpha male, which is always a plus, I loved his brutality and how he fought his feelings for Evie, but I thought that he approached her far too easily and quickly for a man that did everything he could for Evie to forget all about him. He kind of contradicted himself.
The sex scenes, were fairly good written and sexy and you could see the chemistry between Evie and Ansgar, but again due to their history form the first book, the make out scenes came far too quickly before I could connect with the characters, and that is something I don't usually like. That, and reading sentences like "touche me there" or "touch her houhah" in the middle of a sexy scene that completely turned me off.
All in all, Demon Hunting in the Deep South is a book I had some problems with, problems that I wouldn't probably have if I had read the first book in the series. As it is, my review and rating is based solely without any previous knowledge to Lexi George's world and I really want you to take that into consideration. To fans of this series, Demon Hunting in the Deep South is a must. To the rest, take my advice and read those books in order. Lexi George's sense of humour is worth it! That, and I want you to meet Meredith :P

Since I binged this series over the past week or so, my review is going to be briefly (or as brief as I ever get) touch on the specific book and then there will be an overall series section. You can choose to read both bits, or not. As you like.
Book Specific Review: Evie and Ansgar - when I re-read this, it reminded me why I stopped looking for this series. This was an ALMOST three strikes and you're out situation for me, and it was only because of the introduction to the heroine for the third book that kept me going.
First, the digs/insults regarding weight are unnecessary and say alot about what is considered "plus size" which is basically anyone bigger than a size two. I did NOT like this, at all. Just disappointing. Second, Ansgar does have contact with another....being. Not a human, not a relationship and not on the page, but it irritated me just the same.
But the overarching story kept me reading, rather than the romance. The humor is still more screwball, much more in keeping with the first book. This one was is pretty much only ok for me, and I'd say only for those who are completists or those who like that kind of screwball romances.
Series Review: I’d read the first two books a long time ago but re-read them which lead me down this rabbit hole. I was drawn to this urban fantasy/paranormal romance series because it’s got your typical protective, practically impervious heroes called Dalvahni who are demon hunters, mixed with a small town romance vibe (in this case the town of Hannah, Alabama) that I enjoy. The way the ‘verse kept expanding pulled me in despite the flaws. There was a little hook at the end of each - not full cliffhangers because the main romance was resolved during each book, but enough of a hook to make the reader want to see what happens next. The first two books are way more slapstick in its humor, country fried exaggerations that were the reasons I didn’t keep going with it. However, the tonal shift between book 2 and book 3 was distinct. The closest analogy I can draw is Buffy the Vampire Slayer the movie vs. Buffy the series.
My big quibbles are the lack of diversity and the little bit there is tends towards stereotypical, which was unsatisfying. The first couple of books also spends ALOT of time being cringey in the judginess towards sexuality and/or crossing some serious boundaries, but it definitely gets better as the series goes along.
The shift in the way the romances are handled is night and day - think more insta-love/quick sex vs slow burns. There’s enough backstory explained in each book that you could pretty much jump into the series at any point and not miss a whole lot.
Bottom Line: I like the series more as it goes along, even with its flaws, and considering the way the last book ends (Demon Hunting with an Ex), I really want.

This book was a fun urban fantasy - rural fantasy? - and paranormal romance. Evie Douglass is used to staying under the radar and being dissed by socialite Meredith Starr Peterson. But, when she finds Meredith's body in her office, things start to change. It looks like Evie is being framed for the crime and it is up to her and her Dahlvahni lover Ansgar to save her.
Apparently, in the first book of this series, Evie and Ansgar had a relationship but when Ansgar was forced to shoot her to get a demon to leave her, he killed her. Then he brought her back to life, made her a Dahlvahni, and erased her memories of their past. He's been gone a couple of months but now he's back. To Evie, he is someone new in town. Someone really, really hot but, also, someone she doesn't know.
When Evie learns that she is now Dahlvahni and that all her friends have been keeping secrets from her, she was really angry. She goes out with another character and tries to get drunk but isn't having any success until the owner of a shady bar gives her chocolate. Turns out alcohol doesn't affect Dahlvahni but chocolate makes them high.
The story is filled with hot romance and all sorts of funny "Southernisms." I laughed out loud a number of times. I also really want to read the first and third books in this series to learn more about the stories of the other characters. The town is full of all sorts of characters from prissy Southern ladies to demons, demonoids, and fairies.
I first heard about this one when it was suggested for fans of Charlaine Harris's Sookie Stackhouse series. There are some common factors - Southern setting and paranormal creatures - but this one has a slapstick humor that makes it quite different. This was a fun book to read.

This is the second book in the Demon Hunting series which is set in the little town of Hannah where all sorts of strange things happen and the townsfolk are all hilarious and a little bit nuts.
Meet Evie a very shy woman who wouldn't say boo to a ghost she has caught the eye of very sexy demon hunter, Ansgar.
When Evie is charged with murder she did not commit she must find out who did the deed while dealing with her feelings for Ansgar and trying to build her confidence up.
The characters in this book are hilarious and I want to read the rest of the series to find out hat happens to them.
A funny and witty read which I really enjoyed.

Plenty of humor in the 2nd novel of the series, and I'm glad to see Evie and Ansgar get their HEA. It was nice to see everyone else too. The mystery element was interesting and I would liked to have seen a bit more of that as it kind of got lost in the Hannah hijinks a bit, including a chihuahua storyline that I'm still not sure about. And while the southern-isms are fun and entertaining, the body issues were pushed way too far for my taste.

Y'all have to read this book, it's side splittin funny. Tastier even then deep fried Twinkies.
I'll be posting a more involved review in a day or so... for now, just know that all y'all will die laughing with this story.

Nope. No no no. She talks like a baby, like a small child. Her reactions are child-like. It's not cute or sweet - it's infantilizing and weird. Ansgar is an alphahole. He wipes her memory but HE DOES IT FOR DUTY, so that's totally cool. Super! Great! Hard pass.

This is a fun, quirky, campy series. That's not always my favorite style, because there's a fine line between fun/campy and trite/annoying. This author stays firmly in the first camp. Her characters all have strong, unique voices and the story is deeply satisfying. This book was a little darker than the first, but maintains the light touch, humor, and evocative setting that immerses you in the life of a small southern town.
The only part of the book that really bothered me was the treatment of weight in the book. The main character seemed to be an extended "you're not fat, you're beautiful" response to the bullies, which is problematic. Why can't she be both? It seems a subtle, default acceptance of our culture's aggressive body shaming, rather than a refutation of it. This came close to knocking my rating down to three stars, but in the end, I couldn't quite bear to do that to Ansgar ;-)

Ladies and Warriors and Demons, oh, my!
Brand's friend, Ansgar, didn't understand Brand's obsession with a human female, until he met Evie. After Evie is injured and Ansgar saves her, she awakens with amnesia, he thinks it's the perfect opportunity to go back to his life as a warrior, so he erases her memories of him. Only it's not as easy as he thinks. Evie is always on his mind, and he returns to Earth to watch over her. She thinks she's meeting him for the very first time.
Twists and turns abound as the pair navigates the demons and Evie's lost memories with the help of Addy, Brand, and a new friend, Nicole, who owns a a protective allihuahua (a chihuahua with alligator teeth). Delightful story, well-written with memorable characters. If you like urban fantasy with a strong dash of romance, this series might be for you. Warning: explicit sex.

Great series
I read a complication book with a short story by Lexi & fell in love with this series. Now I'm reading the series from start to finish. I ADORE this book. First, as a person who has realities from the south, Left's style cracks me up. Second, as a lover of paranormal romance, this story is GREAT. I love the plot lines that keep intertwining & laugh hysterically t the characters. Such a fun book to read! Thanks, Lexi!

2nd in series, should be read in order. Paranormal romance, demon hunter ends up in small Southern Town to support his fellow demon hunter and falls for local shy girl, but had to kill her & then bring her back to life. He makes her forget him & try to go on with their respective lives. This book starts after that, beginning with her being accused of a gruesome murder. The book is fairly intentionally ridiculous & over the top, somewhat graphic sex scenes.

Nice story
Demons, demonoids, demon hunters, and mix in some humans and you have a good recipe for a story place it in the south. Use lots of hilarious euphemisms. Add in some crazy animals that love their owners. And don't forget mamas that make you act like a lady. Cool fun story. Sweet read

I read book 1 and knew I needed book 2. I needed some light hearted fun and a romp.
While this book was fun, it wasn’t as lighthearted as the first book. The romance, though, is just as tight. It seems like all the characters are experiencing growth in their lives. They’re moving on as life goes on.
I wish my library had book 3. I’m going to need to order it so I’m moving on to book 4.

I am loving this series! The writing is very evocative. Lots of laugh out loud images.
This is a romance with hot guys and a woman finding herself (or finding herself again in this case) but it's a great adventure. For some unknown reason Hannah, AL is demon central which of course brings in extremely hot inter-dementional demon hunters...

Welcome back to crazyville where everyone is nuts. I'd totally go on vacation there. The author caught me up and kept my attention on every page, there's never a moments boredom. Evie and Ansgar totally deserved their own book.
I highly recommend this book/series. It's funny, steaming hot and so crazy. You won't be disappointed.
