Tayla's observation : 'his magic penis'

Whoops, excuse me. I did not mean to react so strongly. I meant to reply with, "please... tell me more."

So...this Eidolon guy. He kind of has magic spermies that do magic sperm-y things to a woman. If that's not going to get someone interested, then I don't know what else to say.

This was fluffy, cheesy, good-time PNR and I loved every second of it. I never once rolled my eyes at the flowery sexual terms, nor did I bat an eyelash at the crazy male behavior. If there's one thing I expect from PNR, it's that I already know I'm going to get a yummy, smutty, ridiculously over-the-top story and that's what I crave when I reach for the genre. It's my comfort-food version of reading, where for once I don't have to stop and question every single action I find incredibly unrealistic. I'm pretty sure that creatures with green skin and demons with horns are a dead giveaway that realism is going out the window. Hooray! Let the good times roll!

Speaking of good times...let's go back to the magic sperm. If there's a wait list to be the test subject for this stuff, SIGN ME UP. The chick in this book had serious issues with even getting an O (due to previous trama) and she was still having the time of her life. Talk about some awesome sex, right?

As for the world building....it wasn't bad. I had a few moments of confusion when it seemed like a lot of races and descriptions were dumped on me all at once, but after a few chapters, it all started coming together. I can honestly say that I would prefer not to read about demons (unless it's a Georgina Kincaid type of succubi), so it was never my intention to read this book until a group picked it for their read. Even though I'm still not comfortable with demons (the concept makes me feel kind of icky), I enjoyed the read enough that I might continue on with the series because I want to know more about the other characters.

Three cheers for snark! This author has a great sense of humor :

"I'm taking you home."
"In a car?"
"Only because my flaming chariot is at the shop."

"And eew. Dude, she's a Buffy. I'd sooner shove my dick into a month-dead corpse."
"You probably have," Wraith snorted.

"You eat fast food?"
"Only when there's a shortage of live sheep and small children."

"UGH? Your hospital is called ugh?"

She wondered if his apparently keen sense of smell would pick up the odor of her failing deodorant.

Hot guy + sense of humor + smokin' hot sex + interesting world = recipe for success. If you can ignore the obvious cheese which automatically goes hand-in-hand with the whole smutty pnr vibe, you'll have a fun time.
