Emmett owns an occult store. He firmly believes in magic. His boyfriend, Jackson, does not.
Yet none of that matters because they are devoted to each other—until the night Emmett becomes the unexpected target of a sexual demon … an Incubus. Suddenly Emmett can’t remember their passionate nights. He’s slowly being taken over. And Jackson struggles with the realization that magic might just be real after all.
Now Jackson has to step in to fight for his love before the demon completely consumes Emmett.
REVIEW:
Not a bad little story. It had some really good points. It packed a lot in a short amount of pages. You got the gist of the plot and all. My only issue is I wish maybe there was a little more to it. Not necessarily the length, but maybe a bit more conflict or something, considering how Jackson was so against everything Emmett did in his shop….which I found odd.
They say opposites attract and in this case, they definitely do. Emmett and Jackson couldn’t be more different. Emmett running an ‘occult’ shop and Jackson an attorney. Jackson not believing in a thing that pertained to the ‘other world’. And Emmett being in the middle of it. But when a customer comes in and tries to cast a spell in a powerful cauldron in the shop, Emmett ends up being the one who has to deal with the effects of it. And Jackson finally has to admit, there’s more to this life than the black and white. Especially when he sees first hand what that spell has done to his loving boyfriend. Now he needs the help of Emmett’s friend and coworker to rid Emmett of what is plaguing him before he loses Emmett for good.
It’s hard to believe in things we can’t see. Heck, look at the world’s oldest religion, Christianity. So many believe in a God they can’t see, hoping that someone is really out there caring for them. But when you see the state of the world, you really wonder how true things really are. So, I don’t blame people for not believing or trying to find a ‘religion’ or something of the sort to have faith in. Something that shows the goodness of the world and not the bad. But unfortunately, with the good comes the bad. You can’t have one without the other, no matter how much we may wish it so. But when it comes face to face with you, you can’t ignore what’s right in front of you, no matter how much you want to. And that’s what Jackson had to deal with. Not only that, but with the fact that because of it, he could lose the love of his life, permanently. It’s a hard pill to swallow. Thankfully, Emmett had someone with him who knew what to do. But it didn’t make it easier.
It’s a good little story. Short and to the point. I’m kind of curious about the other 5 in the series to see what happens in those. I may have to go back and read them all.
