Book Description

Publication Date: 4 Aug 2008
So whose soul do you have to damn to get a promotion around here?

Daunuan was never the ambitious type. There's so much to love about his job just the way it is--mind-blowing sexual prowess, the power to seduce any human, excellent dental plan. But now Pan, the King of Lust, has offered to make Daun his right-hand incubus. All he has to do is entice a soul destined for heaven into a damnable act of lust. Should take, oh, seven minutes, tops.

Then he meets his target, Virginia Reed. She's cute. Funny. Smart. And unfathomably resistant to his charms. But Daun has centuries of seduction to his credit. Sooner or later he'll transform this polar icecap of a female into a pool of molten desire. Meanwhile, he has to deal with a plague of rogue demons Hell-bent on taking him down. And one other problem: he's falling in love--that unholiest of four-letter words--with the woman he's about to doom for all eternity. . .

Praise for Jackie Kessler

"Funny, sexy, and utterly original! Kessler will seduce you." --Gena Showalter, New York Times bestselling author

"A demonic thrill ride with heart and soul. Kessler is one of a kind!" --Jaci Burton, author of Hunting the Demon

4.0 out of 5 stars Solid paranormal romance with strong world-building and saucy nookie 9 Aug 2008
By I Read, Therefore I Blog TOP 1000 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
This book is the third in a series. I haven't read HELL'S BELLES or THE ROAD TO HELL, but Kessler provided enough information in the text for me to understand what's happened.

Told by Daunuan in the first person, Kessler keeps a strong sense of pace and humour in the narrative, the story is tightly woven and there's a credibility to Daunaun's voice that makes it easy to buy into what's going on. The story itself is simple: Pan, the King of Lust wants to make Daunuan his Prince (a very coveted position). The catch is that to win the role, Daunuan must seduce Virginia Reed, a woman whose soul is bound for heaven and who is strangely resistant to Daunuan's advances. Inbetween trying to break through Virginia's resistance to him, Daunuan must defend himself from attacks made by representatives from the other sins (including Wrath and Greed) and find out who it is who wants him out of the way. To make matters worse, he finds himself starting to care for Virginia, something that no self-respecting Incubus should ever do.

I had some nitpicks. Most readers will understand why Virginia is able to resist Daunuan very early on and whilst this reason is well depicted, the nature of it made me eye-roll a couple of times (predominantly because Virginia's character is one that doesn't normally appeal to me). I found that one of the big twists was easy to guess, which robbed the 'reveal' moment of any tension and there's a chapter featuring Mozart that lacked any real sense of period for me and although it tied in with the narrative very neatly, the lack of historical credibility made it feel very flat. Finally, the end confrontation is a little too perfunctory for my taste and had a whiff of convenience in terms of the resolution.

Saying that, I found Kessler's world-building to be very solid and really liked the idea of the Deadly Sins being 'real' and having their own domains in hell and there's some nice discussion as to the nature of each sin that dovetails neatly into the narrative. There's also plenty of racy nookie, sly humour and it's an easy read with a nice set-up for the next book. All in all, it's a solid paranormal romance that should appeal to fans of the genre.

4.0 out of 5 stars Daunuan's Unleashed 15 Feb 2011
By Gareth Wilson - Falcata Times Blog TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
Jackie is an author who loves to tease, enjoys twisting perceptions and above all else knows how to keep her readers happy as she brings one of her supporting cast members forward to star in this, the latest offering in her Hell on Earth series. Whilst in the previous two titles Daunuan helped out due to his own twisted sense of desires readers have long suspected that there were greater depths to this Incubi and whilst this title is all about him and his progression through the ranks of hell we get a richer deeper flavour that will make him a firm fan favourite.

Add to this wonderful creative outing, a dark twisted tapestry of sins alongside serious pace and plotline, a potion of redemption, a dash of selfishness, a drop of love and boil until reduced and the whole creation will leave readers firmly in Kessler camp eagerly awaiting the next release in the series. Great stuff.

4.0 out of 5 stars Incubus meets innocent 17 Dec 2008
By Helen Hancox TOP 500 REVIEWER
Format:Paperback
Jackie Kessler writes really well, and I mean REALLY well. There's something about the way that she puts together a story that makes it un-putdownable, even if the central character is hardly appealing. Certainly Daunuan, Prince of Lust, whose job is to seduce people and send their souls to the Pit, isn't exactly someone you'd want to take home to your mother. We met Daunuan in Kessler's previous books and it was rather hard to decide whether he was likeable or not in those; in this story we follow Daunuan as he undertakes a challenge to prove he's worth of the position of second in command to King Pan - he has to seduce a soul destined for heaven and without using any trickery.

Of course Pan has chosen a rather difficult subject for Daunuan's test - Virginia Reed is a shell of a woman, someone whose life appears over, but who is full of innate goodness. She also looks startlingly similar to Daun's lost succubus friend, Jezebel, heroine of the previous books and someone whom Daun can't quite get over. But Daun's challenge might be harder than he thinks - as he is trying to get on with his seduction he keeps finding various infernal creatures are trying to bump him off; that, and that Virginia might be introducing him to that worst of four-letter-words, love.

What makes this book is Kessler's excellent prose, her witty descriptions, great characters and the overall ambiguity between the hero and their infernal purposes. In some ways this book is a departure from the norm in that the ending isn't the traditional Happy Ever After that one might expect; however it's still a really enjoyable read and the world in which Kessler sets these stories is amusing in a slightly dark way.
