About this book

New York Times bestselling author Aurora Ascher's hilarious and hot blend of spicy demon romance and cozy fantasy featuring a half-mad demon with questionable morals, a goth witch who kicks ass and takes names, and a magical library in a castle in Hell. Perfect for fans of Hannah Nicole Maehrer, Brynne Weaver, Jenna Levine, and Kimberly Lemming. DELUXE LIMITED EDITION featuring stenciled edges, designed chapter headers and inside covers, series spine design and bonus content! Only available for a limited time and while supplies last. A villain always has a plan . . . but she’s a complication he never saw coming. Murmur, the nefarious Necromancer, is losing his mind. His army of souls screams in his head, and his dreams are filled with bone-chilling visions of his approaching death. To save himself, he will unleash a torrent of destruction unlike anything Hell has seen before . . . But for his plot to succeed, he requires one final ingredient: the blood of a certain headstrong witch. This witch can rescue herself . . . Suyin, leader of the Montreal coven, hides her dread beneath a tough exterior. Unusual abilities she can’t explain are taking over her life, and she’s haunted by ominous dreams. Her fears are realized when she’s captured by a demon with bloodshot eyes. Murmur plans to leave her in his dungeon, but Suyin has no intention of making this easy for him. Bargaining with demons is dangerous business, but she’ll do anything to survive. Enemies may become lovers, but fate has other plans. Forced into close proximity, things begin to shift between Suyin and her captor. But as the Necromancer’s machinations reach a pinnacle, he is faced with an impossible choice: achieve his master plan, or free the woman who resurrected his dormant soul.

BEAUTY AND THE DEMON REVIEW

"Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Spice: 🌶 This series has me in a chokehold and somehow it just keeps getting better 😩🔥 Murmur and Suyin?? I’m OBSESSED. The slow burn from indifference to reluctant allies to lovers was so good. Their dynamic is brutally honest, a little chaotic and completely addictive 🖤 She pushes back on everything, he’s a grumpy, emotionally repressed menace… perfection. Murmur is officially top tier demon boyfriend 😈 the dry humor, the “I don’t have feelings but touch her and die” energy?? I ate it up every single time. And the EMOTIONS??? I was not prepared 😭 the last part had me stressed, heartbroken and then healed just enough to survive. Also still living for this found family it’s messy, hilarious and somehow comforting every time 💫 And Bel?? I already know his book is going to destroy me. ["
