BLURB:
Not long ago, necromancer Lionel didn’t know who his parents were or why they abandoned him. He’s starting to think that ignorance was bliss as the fact he has a death goddess for a mother is becoming increasingly hard to ignore. That his father is a murderous magic user comes as an even darker revelation.
Lucifer is well aware that his boyfriend and powerful necromancer Lionel is not the easiest person to love, but Lucifer is the Devil, and he doesn’t lie, not even to himself. He’ll take Lionel any way he can get him, and Lucifer will do whatever it takes to keep Lionel safe. It’s turning into a fulltime occupation with Lionel’s penchant for attracting murderous individuals.
Lionel will have to come to grips with his own still unfamiliar demigod magic before the past can catch up with him, but he also needs to figure out if and how he can love the Devil. Lucifer cannot wait for his long game to tame his stubborn necromancer to bear fruit, but before the Devil can savor his prize, he might have to rescue Lionel yet again, this time from getting lost in the labyrinth of the past.
REVIEW:
After a lot of resistance from Lionel’s side throughout the first two books, we finally see him admit his love for Lucifer. *pump fist in the air* It took Lucy a ‘life-threatening wound, but yah. LOL, now he speaks of Lucifer as his boyfriend, without the pressure of the Devil himself, hallelujah!
“Passing out really wasn’t as much fun as they made it sound in the romance novels.”
Nelly understands he’s coming from powerful parents, his birth mother made a hugely powerful distaff. Imagine his power, as he’s coming from a strong magical parental combination.
Lionel is one grumpy stubborn necromancer, always irritated with Lucifer, who’s more the sunshine of the two. Lionel was always alone and lonely, since Lucifer took over his life it changed a lot.
We meet Hades and Persephone, the three-headed dog Cerberus, some impressive fun creatures!
Lionel as Demigod has to learn about his power, that’s where Hades steps in.
There is someone who wants to harm Lionel, someone with enormous power.
The story was so much fun, Lucifer is still my favorite, while I already warmed up to Lionel, Lucifer is honest about his feelings. Together they were fireworks, their sexual encounters were hot!
Their personalities are more revealed in this story, certainly Lionel’s and his strong reluctance to show feelings or his vulnerability. Lucifer is an open book, he loves Lionel hard and unconditionally.
It was a wonderful story, captivatingly written, with great environments, beautiful creatures, and an original steady plot.
When you’re in for a fun read with magic, sexiness, and the most beautiful creatures, read this series!
