When men begin dying in a very unusual way, suspicion turns to the only Succubus
in town – Cara Maloan. After all, every piece of evidence points to a sex
demon.
Detective Todd Brooks has seen some pretty strange things on the job lately, but
this beats all. He isn’t quite sure how to investigate this one, but his gut
tells him that the beautiful demon is at the center of it all, even while he
hopes that isn’t true with every fiber of his being. It’s not good to be this
attracted to a suspect, not good at all.
Desiring the policeman who is trying to prove her guilty of murder is a little
over the top, even for a Succubus who is currently practicing celibacy like
Cara. She thought she had a handle on her hunger, having found a way to feed
without contact – until she set eyes on the sexy law enforcement officer.
Suddenly, her self-control starts to slip – at least where Detective Brooks is
concerned!
Once again, author Cynthia Eden delivers a steamy paranormal romance that proves
this talented author has what it takes to keep her readers coming back for more
again and again!
MIDNIGHT SINS has a great mix of good old-fashioned suspense
combined with the paranormal elements that are popular with so many of us
romance fans. The whodunit plot kept me guessing until the very end of the
story, with some very cool plot twists.
Cara’s species might be a little unusual for a heroine, but Ms. Eden totally
made me believe that this demon has a heart of gold. That’s not to say she is a
pushover, because she is by no means that. Not by a long shot. She can take
care of herself, and has opportunity to show both readers and her hero this when
it counts. She is a perfect blend of silk and steel, a combination that seems
irresistible to Todd.
As for Todd, he is the quintessential hero. Strong, confident, noble, and
sexier than all get out – he sure made my heart go pitter patter! The man makes
a few mistakes along the way, but that only serves to make him all the more
believable. Plus, he had very good reasons for his actions. In the end, he
will let nothing come between him and the woman he loves, not even the fact that
she is a demon.
In a genre crowded with paranormal romances, MIDNIGHT SINS is a
definite stand-out story. Bravo to Cynthia Eden for a book that thrills lovers
of erotic romance, paranormal, and suspense equally!
