A Review of Demon's Wish by Xenia Melzer

Demon's Wish (Demon Mates #1) by Xenia Melzer 4*

BLURB: Finding love is hard—especially when you’re a demon and your potential mate is your sacrifice… Sammy is content with running his bookshop and leading a book club consisting solely of paranormal creatures. Despite the persistence of his friends, he has resolved himself to a life without romance, since he doesn’t think anybody could find him and his tendency to spill useless knowledge whenever he gets nervous attractive. Dresalantion is a demon prince and slightly—make that majorly—annoyed when somebody persistently tries to summon him. He finally decides to show up and put the fear of Dresalantion into his summoners but finds himself rescuing their sacrifice instead. Sammy intrigues him from the get-go, and when Dre realizes that Sammy can get him the manga he’s been hunting for months—not to mention that he refuses a wish he offered him—the sexy demon decides to get to know this fascinating man better. Much better. Reader advisory: This book contanis scenes of kidnapping and an attempted human sacrifice.

My Review: I received a copy in exchange for an honest review. I don't personally belong to a book club but, if the people in it were anything like the characters from Sammy's club, I might have made the effort to join one. Though this book isn't just about Sammy's book club, they do feature a lot in it, and they add to the whole ambience of the paranormal world that Sammy inhabits. 

The Demon Dresalantion (and what a mouthful that name is, I was very glad Dre was the more common reference to him) is a wonderful romantic interest and I loved the interactions between he and Sammy. I liked the way they worked together and I hope to see more of them in future books.

As I don't like to give spoilers there isn't much more I can say except. if you get the chance, go get the book and enjoy a few hours of, mostly angst free, romance between a human and a demon. You won't be sorry.
