In her acclaimed Women of the Otherworld series, Kelley Armstrong has
created a scintillating realm where the supernatural and the human
coexist on the edge of darkness, romance, and eternity. Now Armstrong
tells the captivating tale of a young woman with an insatiable lust for
danger. She can’t help it. It's in her blood.
Tabloid
reporter Hope Adams appears to live the life of an ordinary working
girl. But in addition to possessing the beauty of a Bollywood princess,
Hope has other unique traits. For she is a half demon – a human fathered
by a demon. And she's inherited not only a gift for seeing the past but
a hunger for chaos – along with a talent for finding it wherever she can.
Naturally, when she's chosen by a very dangerous group for a very
dangerous mission, she jumps at the chance...
The head of the
powerful Cortez Cabal – a family that makes the mob look like
amateurs – has a little problem in Miami: a gang of wealthy, bored
offspring of supernaturals is getting out of hand, and Hope is needed
to infiltrate. As spells, astral projections, and pheromones soar
across South Beach, Hope weaves her way through its elite hot spots,
posing as upscale eye candy and reading the auras of the clientele – and
potential marks.
As it turns out, Hope is a little too good at
this job. And soon she's in a little too deep, needing to be bailed out
by her jewel-thief werewolf ex-boyfriend and by the Cortez heir
himself. And when a killer goes to work, Hope is among many targets at
the pinnacle of Cabal rule. For a woman who didn't know what she was
getting into, there's only one way out: it's time for Hope to unleash
her most potent primal instincts – and open herself, mind and body, to
everything she most fears... and desires.
Sexy and suspenseful, Personal Demon is a thrill ride through a world on the wild side of our own.
