Publisher Description

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. Personal Demon, the eighth Otherworld book, is another wickedly entertaining 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 has 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.

    " Very similar to the other books in the series, in tone and writing. It's a decent enough story, the usual mystery whodunit something bad happens and we all have to wrap our collective minds around it to figure it out scenario. It was an entertaining read at the doctor's office. What more could I ask for? "

    " lame. better than No Humans Involved, but still sort of naff...i'd say she'd lost her touch, but that other one that i can't remember the title of was good. The Summoning, i think... "

    " Really enjoyed this book. It was nice to have Paige and Lucas in this book as well; I've missed them! I'm interested in reading more about Hope and I hope (no pun intended) that she is able to better handle and control her powers in the future. "

    " I like Hope. Its interesting to see a "good" demon, if there is such a thing. Armstrong does a good job portraying the struggle that Hope has. A great addition to a facinating storyline! "

    " I was nervous that the latest installment would be a let down since the main character is relatively new to the series, but I was totally wrong. It was sexy and thrilling. Hope is now one of my favorite Women of the Underworld. "

    " Wonderful book.....one thing I like about Armstrongs writing is how she introduces new and old characters and how nicely the books flow from one to another "

  • Overall Performance: 3 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 53 out of 5

    " I have to agree that this book seems the weakest in the series so far- we don't learn enough about either hope or Karl to really feel a connection to them. And as much as I love Lucas and Paige, why the hell did they take up half the book? I really hope these don't keep going downhill... "

    " This was a good showing for Armstrong, but the narrative wasn't as tight as I remember her other books being. Still enjoyable and hard to put down, but some of the energy was scattered byt having two different POVs instead of her usual singular. "

    " Another great story from this author! I loved how she had the two POVs in the book both Hope and Lucas' it made for a great read. It made me feel kind of bad for the Jaz character though. "

    " I love all the Otherworld books, but this one wasn't up there with my favourites. I don't really 'get' Hope and her 'power' is pretty boring.It was an enjoyable paranormal mystery though, with some good plot twists so it gets 4 stars based on that. "
