Ouch....too hot to handle

Once again, Devyn Quinn does not disappoint. I sometimes enjoy "light-reading" books but this is definitely not "light reading." This book is sexually explicit. It was a little different than her Shadow Stalker series. My heart went out to Kendra who suffers emotionally who unleashes a power like no other and once again, the hero, Remi, does not disappoint in the love making department. He gave me a "fever!" It is a book of mystery, romance and deception. I love the way Devyn Quinn writes.

Possession can possess me anytime!

After I looked and read at the back cover, I knew I was in for a treat! I grabbed my glass of water to cool down with for when I got to the *cough* SEX scenes. I was so wrapped up in this book that after it was over I had to check out the authors website for more of her work! If you like your books with sex, love, sex, demons, sex, intrigue, sex, suspense, and sex, then this is the book for you! From the beginning, I couldn't stand Kendra's brother, Gerald. He was crude, shallow and out for himself. All through the book though, I couldn't figure it out. Was Kendra out-of-her-mind-crazy? Was someone setting her up? Was she really an alcoholic? And was that demon really as the author described?! Then when the pieces started coming together, I thought Kendra was going to explode! AT her brother, not sexually. Of course there are plenty of sexual explosions as well, so be warned! The author gives a whole new meaning to possession with the demon in this book! Watch out Marlena Evans from Days of Our Lives! This is one POSSESSION I wouldn't mind having!

super erotic romantic urban fantasy

Following the shocking sudden death of her father and the breaking up of her engagement to Michael, Kendra Carter suffers a nervous breakdown; in fact many believe she tried to commit suicide by mixing wine with pills though she denies it. As she struggles with her equilibrium, her stepbrother Gerald Carter shows his demon collection to her especially his latest addition, a copy of Delamelanicon, a kind demon occult "Unholy Bible"; allegedly written by Satan. Only thirteen copies were ever produced and few of those exist. After exasperation for his spending two million from their dwindling trust fund, Kendra heeds the whispers to open the extremely rare tome. By doing so she liberates Remi the demon, who was trapped inside seemingly for eternity. Remi and Kendra are tied together in ways that Peter can only imagine. The demon seduces his disbelieving hostess with his touch and whisper yet though she screams for more; she assumes her mental health went further south though that part of her body is enjoying every sexual moment. Kendra the disbeliever makes this super erotic romantic urban fantasy work on all levels. Remi and Peter are strong support characters with the former having a unique relationship with the lead heroine. The story line is fast-paced with several great twists as POSSESSION is much more than just nine tenths of the law. Harriet Klausner

Dark, Enticing Paranormal Romance

Ever wish you could conjure your own personal genie from a bottle to grant a few wishes or change the course of your life? In the case of Kendra Carter, it is a demon and she doesn't summon him from a bottle, she calls him up from 514-year-old grimoire called the Delomelanicon. The difference in Kendra's case, is that she summons her demon unconsciously and without understanding of the book's power. Devyn Quinn has the ability to develop characters for her stories that are deeply "wounded" and just when you think all is lost, she pens plot twist that results in their redemption. I've read a number of Ms. Quinn's novels and I have to say, I think Kendra is one of her more `damaged' heroines; however it makes the conclusion of her unusual story all the more sweet. Possession Kendra Carter has hit rock bottom, she has just been released from hospital following a suspected suicide attempt and "nervous breakdown". She returns to the family mansion she shares with her stepbrother Gerald and his wife Jocelyn to find he has purchased a rare leather-bound book that has a faded title in Latin meaning "To summon darkness..." Gerald has always had an interest in demonology and the relic is steeped in history and mythology. The grimoire is kept in a glass lectern in the library and as Kendra discusses the book with her stepbrother she feels a magnetic force drawing her toward it. In fact, she feels an unseen force caressing her mind, seducing her. Kendra loses consciousness and when she awakens, she is alone and feels a presence emanating from the book, calling to her, she approaches the lectern and the glass shatters. "A crimson-shaded mist streamed around the grimoire, unfettered by any force. With a great, shuddering heave, the cover slowly opened. Several pages followed, turned by an invisible hand. The book faded away as the mist took on substance, thickening and taking on a distinct shape. Wafting closer, it settled in front of her. Thicker and denser, the sent of hot musk grew more intense. The glimmer of an actual figure evolved, assuming a new solidity. A six-foot hunk of demon materialized." Possession © Devyn Quinn The demon introduces himself as `Remi, the bringer of revelation', and Kendra discovers very swiftly that he knows her inner most secrets and understands her loses. He also proves to be an unbelievable, consummate lover. The love scenes penned between Remi and Kendra are explicit, intense and sensuous. He is very powerful and has the ability to manipulate matter and time. As always, Devyn Quinn's graphic imagery astounds me and the encounters between Remi and Kendra are no exception, in one particular scene he calls to her from inside a beautiful picture and she is able to step through and enter the scene to be with him. Kendra has horrendous emotional baggage to work through, 11 months earlier, she was involved in a motor vehicle accident that cost her father his life and left her scared emotionally and physically. She has been
