Publisher Description

Haunted by chilling memories of demonic possession and murder, Moira O’Donnell has spent seven years hunting down her mother, Fiona, whose command of black magic has granted her unprecedented control of the underworld. Now Moira’s global search has led her to a small California town that’s about to become hell on earth. Tormented by his own terrifying past and driven by powers he can’t explain, ex-seminarian Rafe Cooper joins Moira’s dangerous quest. But Fiona is one devilish step ahead. Hungry for greater power, eternal youth, and stunning beauty, the sorceress is unleashing upon the mortal world the living incarnations of the Seven Deadly Sins. Together with a demonologist, a tough female sheriff, and a pair of star-crossed teenagers, Moira and Rafe are humanity’s last chance to snatch salvation from the howling jaws of damnation.

"Amazing! I could not put this book down. I felt connected to the characters which rarely happens for me. I was also captivated by the imagery and felt like I was in the story. Definitely a good read and I cannot wait to read the second book of the Seven Deadly Sins series, Carnal Sin. "

    " Even though this one is #1 in the series, I feel like there was a lot of the story that was missing. I was very lost within the first 100 pages. They kept talking about events that happened a couple of months ago and how it related to what was happening now, but didn't do a good job to describe those events and the people involved. There was a lot of action, but it seemed like you were always a step behind. There were so many players and at times it was hard to keep them all straight. In the end I was very underwhelmed by this book and sad at that as I had high hopes for it. "

    " I would give this book 3 1/2 stars. It started out a little slow and wasn't what I was expecting from the author as it's different than the other books I've read from her. As I got into it I really enjoyed it and it left you really wanting to read the next one. There is so much about the characters still to learn. "

    " So sorry to give this a poor rating. I usually like books of the paranormal sci-fi genre, but I couldn't even muster the energy to finish this one, even as an audiobook. The story was too disjointed, the details and characters not engaging. I'm really not that picky and usually quite easily entertained. "

    " For some reason I feel like I've met Moira before. Her independent 'fuck you' attitude is similar to that of Dante Valentine (Created by Lilith Saintcrow) It felt like I was reading a watered down version of Saintcrow's work. It was fast-paced and in the whole 432 few things really happen. The lack of explanation pissed in the hand that feeds it. Most of the time I had to make up my own explanations to the very frequent missing links. "

    " I was in the mood for a somewhat girly romantic thriller, but this really didn't do it for me. The characterization was pretty poor compared to other books I've read by her. I can usually finish one of these in a day - its taken me about three weeks. I'd take a pass on this one... "
