This is a great Christmas story with a twist - we get to see how a sex demon learns to deal with a 'heavenly' holiday. All to please his human lover who is, by the way, a demon hunter.

Jason and Kirhal are back (they first appear in Cool Heat, one of the stories of the "The Care And Feeding of Demons" anthology). This story stands on its own, though you might want to go back and find out more about how they first meet. I loved the character's interactions, the issue Kirhal (as a demon) has with putting up a Christmas tree and much more. The gift Jason gives Kirhal was a great idea.

The mix between humor and the somewhat more serious message behind it all is wonderful (without being sappy): love really does conquer all differences, if you let it. I highly recommend this as a fun Christmas read.

I really wanted to read Sariel" by Mary Calmes and I did.

Fucking.
Loved.
It.

4.5 Stars

It was Mary Calmes goodness wrapped together with history - I love history. Yep, there's an alpha angel who possessed the hell out of Jacob, a regular grad student who almost raped by bad guys. We don't know a lot of Jacob's back story. I didn't think it was needed so I am happy. It's instalove but it surpasses it because for angels in this story, there is no in between. They can see your inner most desires and wants . it's either black or white. No gray. So I won't gripe with the binding declarations made because it was inevitable. But also made from free will.

Hot stuff.

Angels are not my fave paranormal read. I lump them together with psychics. (Bottom of the totem pole for me) I might read more stories from the anthology, I might not. *shrugs*"… (meer)
