Review: Lucifer’s Daughter by Eve Langlais

by Susan S., guest reviewer

Summary: It’s not easy being…

Auric: He was thrown out of heaven for questioning their ways, and going against the grain. He’s a fallen angel with a Mega trilemma on his hands. In order to return to heaven’s good graces he’ll have to do a good deed. Like slay Lucifer’s daughter. Problem #1- if he takes Muriel’s life, he’ll lose her love. Here’s where the dilemma begins, problem #2-if Auric doesn’t rob her life, he’ll never regain his angel wings. And finally, problem #3, turning this into a trilemma, if he disobeys Lucifer and doesn’t stay away from Muriel he’ll have hell to pay. Literally! And really, who wants to anger Big D on purpose?

Satana (Muriel) Baphomet: Ever heard the saying the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree? Well, this apple didn’t just fall far from it; it landed in an entirely different forest, on a completely different world. She’s the perfect daughter. Always earned straight As, and an unwed virgin waiting for love. Is that so wrong? Yes. It is! Her father is he with many names: Big D, Lucifer, Satan, Hades, Beelzebub, etc., etc. Sin is a requirement, not an option!

When a sexy dark-haired stranger walks into Muriel’s bar, will it signal her descent into sin? Or Auric’s eternal damnation.

Review: Lucifer's Daughter is a smokin’ hot novella. And not just because it came from the fiery depths of hell. Bwah-ha-ha! I love double–entendres in romances! This story’s got `em. It’s also funny-as-hell, pun intended. There were two scenes I really enjoyed. The first is when three hot guys order a beer at Muriel’s bar, Nexus. Three different guys, three different requests. Funny stuff. The second was when Satana tries to contact her dad on the phone and she hears a pre-recorded message. Loved the recording.

There were unanswered questions that left me wanting answers. Who is Muriel’s mom? Who’s the unidentified antagonist who seeks to overthrow hell? Why couldn’t the antagonist gain access to her memories? Maybe book two holds the answers I seek. There’s a possibility I may have inferred my second question, but don’t really know for certain.

Recommendations: Recommended for readers who enjoy stories about opposites attracting. Also for anyone who reads erotica, urban fantasy, paranormal romance, and angels and demon stories.

To Be Continued: Book two, titled Snowballs In Hell, is currently available for your reading pleasure. It promises 3x the fun. Translation: Sexual content includes threesomes.
