Featuring a smart, funny heroine and a banter-fueled vampire romance, this wickedly addictive urban fantasy series starter will keep you reading way past bedtime. She’s just a demon, standing in front of a vampire, trying not to punch him. Aviva Fleischer hides a dangerous secret. She’s carefully concealing her infernal heritage, a.k.a. Cherry Bomb. Maybe it’s weird naming her demon side and referring to her in the third person, but guys do the same with their junk, and unlike most of them, Avi isn’t deluded about Cherry’s prowess. Avi’s been working her ass off, climbing the ranks of a supernatural policing organization to enact change and empower those like her forced to hide their true nature. Sure, she’s had a few complaints about use of excessive force, but her arrest record speaks for itself. Her promotion is in the bag. Instead, the director strikes a deal with Avi: spy on the operative sent in to work a rash of bizarre murders and prove she can be a team player, or kiss that new rank goodbye. No problem. Okay, maybe just one. Her co-leader, Ezra Cardoso, is a charming, ruthless vampire with his own agenda, whom she fantasizes about: mostly staking him then vacuuming up his remains. But when the killer sets Aviva’s team firmly in their sights, she’ll have to decide whether to keep playing by the rules or show everyone exactly what she—and Cherry Bomb—are capable of… If you like KF Breene, Annabel Chase, and Heather G Harris, you’ll burn through this laugh-out-loud, wickedly addictive series!
