The Unlikeable Demon Hunter
by Deborah Wilde
Bridesmaids meets Buffy.
The ago-old story of what happens
when a foul-mouthed, romance impaired heroine with no edit button and a predilection
for hot sex is faced with her worst nightmare–a purpose.
Ari Katz is intelligent, driven, and
will make an excellent demon hunter once initiated into the Brotherhood of
David. However, this book is about his twin Nava: a smart-ass, self-cultivated hot
mess, who is thrilled her brother is stuck with all the chosen one crap.
When Nava half-drunkenly interrupts
Ari’s induction ceremony, she expects to be chastised. What she doesn’t expect
is to take her brother’s place among the–until now–all-male demon hunters. Even
worse? Her infuriating leader is former rock star Rohan Mitra, whose sudden
retirement in his early twenties now seems a lot less mysterious.
Convinced that her twin still has a
shot at his destiny, Nava hatches a plan to convince the Brotherhood to bring
the other Katz sibling into the fold. It’s too bad Rohan’s guarding her so
closely that she might not be able to put it into action.
And it’s really too bad Rohan’s
exactly what Nava’s always wanted: the perfect bad boy fling with no strings
attached, because he may also be the one to bring down her carefully erected
emotional shields. That’s as dangerous as all the evil fiends vying for the
bragging rights of killing the only female ever chosen for Demon Club–or the
one demon in particular out for payback.
Odds of survival: eh.
Odds of having a very good time with
Rohan before she bites it: much better.
Excerpt
The
red wine on the modular coffee table gleamed in a shaft of sunlight like its
position had been ordained by the gods. I snatched up the crystal decanter,
sloshing the liquid into the glass conveniently placed next to it. Once in a
while, a girl could actually catch a break.
I
fanned myself with one hand. The myriad of lit candles seemed a bit much for my
brother’s romantic encounter, but wine drinking trumped curiosity so I chugged
the booze back. My entire body cheered as the cloyingly-sweet alcohol hit my
system, though I hoped it wasn’t Manischewitz because hangovers on that were a
bitch. I’d slugged back half the contents when I saw my mom on the far side of
the room clutch her throat, eyes wide with horror. Not her usual, “you need an
intervention” horror. No, her expression indicated I’d reached a whole new
level of screw-up.
“Nava
Liron Katz,” she gasped in full name outrage.
My
cheeks still bulging with wine, I properly scoped out the room. Mom? Check.
Dad? Check. Ari? Check? Rabbi Abrams, here to perform the ceremony to induct my
brother as the latest member in the Brotherhood of David, the chosen demon
hunters?
Check.
I
spit the wine back into what I now realized was a silver chalice and handed it
to the elderly bearded rabbi. “Carry on,” I told him. Then I threw up on his
shoes.
A global wanderer, hopeless
romantic, and total cynic with a broken edit button, Deborah writes adult urban
fantasy to satisfy her love of smexy romances and tales of chicks who kick ass.
She is all about the happily-ever-after, with a huge dose of hilarity along the
way. “It takes a bad girl to fight evil. Go Wilde.”
