I really enjoyed the trust and respect growing between these two characters.

They both deal with her emotional trauma together in a fairly touching way. More than that - she thinks and learns from past mistakes. You know what else is refreshing? The female protagonist is believably and understandably stupid as opposed to just being an idiot. He actually behaves like one which is refreshing. We've all been there and done that in other stories.īut for once, I can actually believe that this man would be a doctor. She does ridiculously stupid things in the name of her prejudice toward demons and out of fear of her lust for him, and he gets angry at her but funnels that into sex because her cooch is like crack. He's a fuckhawt doctor and she's a kickarse Buffy clone. In some respects they do represent the mainstays of the genre. Despite the seemingly cheesy concept, bad cover work and HORRIBLE name, Ione has written something remarkably readable. Clearly the Mad Hatter has taken up work as a publisher!īut here's the deal. it's like someone gave this plot device to Ione as a joke to MAKE her fail as an author. Then there's the cover that is, really, the epitome of cheap, softcore porn PNR.Īnd the plot just seems too ridiculous! He's an incubus demon, she's a demon hunter who can't come when she's with a man. I mean, the name of the book is 'Pleasure Unbound' and when my husband asked what I was reading, I blushed as I revealed the book's name. Please don't lose respect for me! Hear me out! Trust me! Torn between his need for the truth and his quest to find his perfect mate before a horrific transformation claims him forever, Eidolon will dare the unthinkable-and let Tayla possess him, body and soul.Okay, so I'm actually kind of embarrassed that I gave this book four stars. Not only is she his avowed enemy, but she could very well be the hunter who has been preying upon his people. But to prove her ultimate loyalty to her peers, she must betray the surgeon who saved her life.Įidolon cannot resist this fiery, dangerous woman who fills him with both rage and passion. Until Tayla Mancuso lands in a hospital run by demons in disguise, and the head doctor, Eidolon, makes her body burn with unslakable desire. She's a demon-slayer who hungers for sensual pleasure-but fears it will always be denied her. In a place where ecstasy can cost you your life.

In this dark and intriguing paranormal romance from New York Times bestselling author Larissa Ione, a forbidden romance turns deadly when a slayer is tasked with killing the demon who saved her life.
