Princess of Hell #2

Snowballs in Hell

Rate this book
Hi, I’m Muriel, misbegotten daughter of Satan, and once again, my life is in turmoil. The cowled one who tortured me left a curse on my mind, one that makes me afraid. Completely unacceptable, but in order to remove it, I have to do something even worse—betray my beloved by bringing another man into our bed.
As if having to participate in a threesome isn’t traumatizing enough, Hell has frozen over, and as much as I think Hades looks pretty in a blanket of white, the repercussions are severe. It’s a good thing this princess of Hell has two lovers determined to charge my magic in pleasurable ways.
I'll admit it's not easy having nympho magic, but I’m prepared to suck it up—and swallow—for the sake of saving the world.

Warning: The following is a very adult urban fantasy containing sexual scenes, violence and twisted situations that some people might find offensive. Reader discretion is advised.

I loved Snowballs in Hell! This is another wicked adventure from Lucifer’s daughter Muriel. You'll find out the meaning of Hell’s frozen over in this book. I enjoyed reading this book until I got to the end and then.. NO! She didn't! I was left HANGING!� I started screaming EVE! WHERE IS THE NEXT BOOK!!!! UGH! *Sobbing uncontrollably* I don’t think I can wait to find out what is going to happen to Muriel. Anyhow, if you haven’t read the first book Lucifer’s Daughter, don’t read this one until you do, take my word for it been there and done that.

Now, let’s get to the hot stuff and boy, does this book have some hot wicked stuff *fans self*. Muriel gets an addition to her already hot guy to help her in time of need, so expect some M/F/M (no anal), some spanking and ordering around LOL. Then of course, you get a fun filled adventure with her and her dad the devil, then at the end the huge surprise *still sobbing*. If you read and liked Lucifer’s daughter please don’t miss this one.

This is a must try series if you’re an erotic paranormal romance reader!!


Tease
“Hell’s frozen over!�
That caught my attention. Sitting up in the bed, I only barely remembered to grab the
sheet and hold it over my naked bosom. “What did you say?� I had to have misheard.
“Hell has frozen over,� said my father slowly through gritted teeth. “As in covered in a blanket of white. No heat. No fire. Frozen solid like a popsicle.�
Now my dad’s outfit made sense. I absorbed this surprising news and then� Ilaughed. I roared. I giggled insanely.
“Muriel!� shouted my father. “I fail to see the humor.�

I enjoyed the first book but this book is...Just not what I expected. It's one thing when you want to have your character have more than one sexual partner...It's a complete other when your main character does not want another sexual partner and her boyfriend(who knows that she will NEED sex) leaves her around the time of the month when he know she needs to have it (alone with his friend) and forces the two of them into a small apartment with the idea that her need will be so bad that she will have sex with him. To me it felt like he was pimping her out to his friend and so I was just DONE!

I am totally loving this series. The spunky and funny Muriel is back and is in trouble and the only way to get enough power to fight her demons seems to be to bring another man into her bed. Ha, I wish my problems could be solved like that!
David, the third in this threesome is a cat shifter and a very welcome edition. I liked his character. Of course Satan is back, and the banter between Muriel and him is hilarious. Father/daughter bonding at its best.

So all in all, another fun paranormal read, with some sexy ménage stuff going on...woot!
On to the next one.

This one was a bit different from book 1, there was a lot of smexy times, like really lot. So you all who love that, go for it. But yes for me who wants to know what is going down, and I am not meaning Arric *pun intended*, well for me I was all, dang, not another! I want answers, not orgasms.

See, Muriel had nympho magic as she calls it, she needs sex to refuel her powers. And she needs lots of magic as everyone is trying to kill her. It seems her dad has a rival, someone who wants to take down Hell.

But yes lots of time spent in bed, when I have so many more important questions! Who is the masked stranger? Who wants to take over Hell and everything in between? Who is Muriel's mother! Not even her father knows (but then he is a real dog). SO many questions, and we do get a tiny answer in this one, one that makes me want to listen to book 3 at once!

A fun book (too much smex though), but I like Muriel cos she is so kickass normal. And the world intrigues me.

I do like Estrella, she connects me with the story

I’ll admit I was incredibly nervous when I picked this story up. I have a HUGE crush on Auric, so the idea of another man coming into the picture did not excite me. I love Auric and Muriel together, but as I started reading, guess what, I fell in love with someone else too, David.

The story is written in a way that made me accept David’s role with the couple. As Muriel fought against it, so did I. And when she came around to the idea, I found myself being okay with it too. As always the sex is scorching and the humor in Eve’s stories continually make me laugh out loud. More than just all those goodies, SNOWBALLS IN HELL is a thrill ride of adventure, danger and kick-ass characters.

But one character throughout this series stands out from me, the Devil himself—yes, believe it! I really hope Eve does a spin-off series where he takes a lead role, because I find his character so amusing and entertaining.

I really do love these books! If you haven’t read Eve’s work yet, go and buy them now! They’re so fun!!

This is a book where you’re lucky if you can walk away from it intact it’s that insanely HOT. Having completely been seduced by the first book, Lucifer’s Daughter and a book virgin to all things ménage themed, I was excited to get my hands on SNOWBALLS IN HELL and couldn’t wait to dive in and see just how heated it could get. What I learned was this � if by some chance Hell really does freeze over in my lifetime, just throw a copy of this book in there and watch how fast things begin to melt! With short circuiting a real threat to my beloved Kindle, I couldn’t help but wear a wicked grin as I was invited back into the lives of Muriel and Auric to see how much trouble this feisty princess of Hell could get into this time. Apparently a lot but the trouble � ooh la la was it FUN!

Things have gone back to normal � well as normal as they can be � after Muriel’s confrontation with the cowled Master. She’s now living with her beloved Auric and things have been quiet on the attack front. Only problem is she’s being terrorized in her dreams and just the thought or mention about the Master reduces her to a giant blob of fear. This completely annoys Muriel because hello?? Daughter of Satan and she should be afraid of no one. The nightmares worry Auric who each night stands by helpless, the only thing he’s able to do is give her some SWEEEET loving when she wakes up to replenish her sex magic. When the demon attacks start back up and the Master resurfaces, Auric and Daddy Dearest send Muriel to some mages who discover the root of the fear and a solution that horrifies Muriel to the core � in order to remove it she must invite another person into her bed, something she refuses because of her commitment to Auric. She needs to work through her issues quickly because the Master is making his move and when he extinguishes the fires of Hell, leaving it covered in snow, Muriel has to be ready and fully charged if she hopes to confront and defeat him. How will she react when sexy David enters her bed and how will she possibly ever let him leave?

Muriel continues to put a smile on my face with her sassiness and I could totally understand the turmoil she went through when everyone around her was telling her she needed to invite another man in her bed. For someone who had waited for “the one� before she gave up her virginity, the idea of sharing her sexual affections with someone other than Auric really bothered her and went against everything her heart was telling her. She knew that it was vital to remove the fear from her if she was ever to stand against the Master but for her Auric was the only one she wanted and it felt like a betrayal to their love. I loved watching her bouncing back and forth � the warring inside her as she watched David, Auric’s best friend who would be her future lover and recognize her attraction for him. I’ll give this for Muriel, once she resolves her concerns she gives herself to the situation completely and becomes stronger for it. There is such an aggressive strength to her with her confidence in who she is and that she’s not one to stand idly by while everyone fights her battles. A true no holds bare, kick butt heroine!!

The men in this book are scorching and well deserving of a loud round of applause. Auric was so yummy in Lucifer’s Daughter and he really stepped it up in SNOWBALLS IN HELL and I have to say � the dominant side of him he showed was positively arousing! I’m not ashamed to admit that each time he issued a command in the bedroom or called Muriel “woman� I melted and fell into a sighing heap. There’s something about a ruggedly handsome man who can be forceful one moment but then tender the next and as Muriel went through her struggles. Auric stood by her, held her and showed a sensitivity that was wonderful to read. By the end of the book I just wanted to reach in and take a big bite of him.

The story introduced the need for another bed partner for Muriel and I loved that David was the one they chose. Where Auric was dominant, David was a gentler version although there were times when he added his own spice and slap to the moment. As a shape shifter, he brought great heat to the threesome and I have to say, I loved the conversations he had with Muriel. He was a perfect addition and I was so happy to see that once the threat was over, Muriel didn’t just kick him to the curb with a thank you but recognized the strength he brought to the relationship and the need she had for him in her life. I think it would have broken my heart is he was tossed aside and with the juicy cliffhanger at the end of the book, I can’t wait to see more of him in the future.

This was a great book and one that I had a lot of fun reading. The author has a great ability to mix spice with interesting plotlines in such a way that you’re eager to read through to the end in one sitting. I will offer this warning though � keep something on hand because I wasn’t kidding when I said overheating is a huge risk. A definite read for lovers of paranormal erotica and those interested in spicing up their libraries. Happy reading!!

One month has passed since Muriel's encounter with the mysterious Hooded One; the night she nearly died. Her reoccurring, daily nightmares are making her feel weak and worse, shameful. She does not like being afraid of anything. The changes in Muriel are especially tough on her soulmate, fallen angel Auric. He will do anything to protect his love and help her get better.

I’m going to say this right up front: Snowballs in Hell is FULL of graphic sex. So much so, that I actually started skimming and forwarding through the scenes. Additionally, due to issues with her sexually-charged powers, Muriel must add another male into her and Auric’s bedroom. While I have no issues with threesomes (also note: this is not a true menáge situation), the way that the threesome came about really irritated me. Honestly, I admired Muriel’s stance on adding another to her existing love life, especially after waiting years for Mr. Right to come along. However, her soulmate felt it necessary to manipulate Muriel into adding another to their bedroom. The fact that Auric blatantly tricks her into the situation made me furious! If the author had instead allowed Muriel to accept her body's need for sex without the subterfuge, I would have enjoyed the storyline. But the over-the-top emphasis that Muriel would deny herself out of love, which lead to the secret sex plot, ruined it for me.

The overall storyline of discovering who is behind the attack that nearly killed Muriel was interesting; however the climatic scene and unveiling of said bad guys left me wanting a bit more. I love how kickass Muriel is, and when she takes charge of her own situations, she’s a wonderful heroine. Add in a touch of humor and sarcasm, and Muriel is one of the best UF characters. However, when she gets wishy-washy, she can be annoying. There was a bit too much focus on whether or not Muriel should sleep with another, but it did tie into the plot.

Rebecca Estrella provides a solid and consistent narration. Muriel’s voice is perfect. The array of male voices works for the story. Typically, I tend to enjoy a narrator more by the second or third book because of familiarity. However, the initial sex scenes felt robotic. It sounded like Ms. Estrella was simply reading the scene as a matter of fact, rather than putting emotion into it. Ms. Estrella does a great job with the individual characters when they speak. Then, I actually started skipping the sex scenes, so I can’t say if that part got better.

In the end, the story behind Snowballs in Hell is pretty good. The campiness makes the story fun. However, there was too much graphic sex for my tastes. And the subterfuge used to get Muriel to accept that her body needs lots of sex with multiple partners really ticked me off. I would have given it a B, but because of that, B- because it was an issue for me.

Story: B-
Narration: B

This series started out fun....but, I kinda lost interest in this series after book 2. The MC is an adult yet, comes across as idiotic, childish and just annoying. There was no growth from book 1 to 2 except getting more idiotic. She just bored me. This book just focused more on sex, sex and then more sex than the story itself. So if you're looking for more erotic focused and less story focused then, this is the book. I get it that the nature of magic portrayed is sex related....but, I was sorta, kinda expecting more from the book/series. I don't have issues with sex scenes but, I do like to enjoy the story as well. Plus, it turned into a bit of a harem and it is not my thing.

So, I will not continue with the series anymore.

Too hot even for Hell! This book is sure to keep you warm on those long winter nights! The ménage scenes are scorching! It’s a fun and sexy novella with a little adventure and more action between the sheets! The characters are enjoyable and bring great humor to the table.

*Caution: This story might not be for the traditional romance lover but it’s a must read for the erotic paranormal romance reader!

Second in the Princess of Hell erotica romance series and revolving around Muriel, Lucifer's goody-two-shoes daughter.

My Take
I thought I'd enjoy this with all the snark and topsy-turvy viewpoints, but Muriel was such a whiner!! She truly is out of step with Hell.

Muriel's relationship with her dad is a crack-up. He's always urging her to sin, and she has a hard time of it. I wish my dad had gotten excited about my overusing his credit card, lol. We do get a few anecdotes about Muriel's time in Hell as a child. Hoo, boy. Naughty girl, lol. Her complaints about her succubi sisters getting straight As too had an unexpected response from her dad.

It is funny to think of a demon being all business-like.

I'm confused as to why mention or thought of Muriel's mother would trigger spells that hurt Muriel. Oh, sure, I get that the spell's purpose is to force Muriel to not remember her mom, but . . . why? And, yeah, this is where we do meet her mom.

Bambi and her relationship with her sister cracks me up as well. Sigh, all those classes.

Hell doesn't sound, quite, so bad. There's no grass or white picket fences, and the air is filled with ash, otherwise it's ramshackle housing and people working jobs. Only the really, really bad get punishments. It certainly sounds more interesting than Auric's description of Heaven.

The old crone whom Muriel consults has a straightforward assessment of how Muriel can crack that spell that's hindering her. This is when Muriel gets so whiny!! She also learns that angels can have sex outside of marriage . . . that rule was never meant for them.

As for the very wounded Bambi, at the end, she manages to recover by having marathon sex with a football team. *I'm still laughing*

Langlais uses a first person protagonist point-of-view from Muriel's perspective, so everything is seen, heard, and felt through her.

Snowballs in Hell is mostly thought with Muriel obsessing over having to have a threesome. Naturally there's action with battles with demons and others. Most of the humor is in Muriel's interactions with Lucifer.

The Story
Last time, everyone in Hell went to sleep, this time Hell has frozen over. The implications of all those promises to do something "when Hell froze over" is terrifying!

There's only one thing Muriel can do to help her father: Sex. Have lots and lots of sex with more than one person. Horrors!

The Characters
Satana Muriel Baphomet is the twenty-three-year-old no-longer-a-virgin bastard daughter of Lucifer. Auric, a fallen angel who regained wings in Lucifer's Daughter , 1, is her live-in boyfriend. David, a panther shifter, and Christopher, a wizard, are Auric's best friends.

Lucifer, a.k.a. Satan, actually does love his daughter, he simply can't show it. Bambi, one of Muriel's sisters, is a succubus who works as an exotic dancer. Remy, a fire demon, and Xaphan are part of the demonic guard. Philokrates "Polkie" is Lucifer's squat major domo. Charon, the ferryman of death, is having family problems. That kid of his . . .

Nexus is . . .
. . . the tavern Muriel owns that's set up for magical and special beings. It only plays hits from the eighties. Staff includes dryads for barmaids and Percy, a half-giant, who is the barman and bouncer.

The hooded one has left Muriel in fear after events in Lucifer's Daughter . Azazel had been a major demon, Lucifer's now-former second-in-command, and still has fantasies about courting Muriel.

The Cover and Title
The cover is chilly with blues and whites. In the foreground, we see Muriel with her long dark red hair in a black bustier holding a flaming sword inside a gazebo-like room decorated with pillars and Celtic knotwork. Its large windows show us a landscape of snow covering trees and the grounds. Just under Muriel's chin is the author's name in a chilly black-shadowed pale blue with an info blurb underneath it in a pale pink. Then there's the title with the first word in a frosty gradient of white to a colonial blue with the last two words in a frosty gradient of pale turquoise to black. At the bottom is the series info in white.

The title is about Hell freezing over, for there are Snowballs in Hell.

Second part to Muriel's story. Her powers are growing and she needs an additional man to help charge her up. Who could be chosen for the part? None other than Auric's bestie. And Muriel complains about it. For a majority of the book she's complaining. That's why I didn't like it as much.

But the smut? Ace.

There's a big bad she has to face. Some information about her mother. And a bombshell at the end that makes me happy!

Oop. Not a huge fan of the main heroine. Her behavior made me cringe most of the book. I enjoyed the author’s creativity and there was a plot to the story. Now that said plot did get lost in all the random seggs the heroine was having with her lovers as they were called. There were honestly too many places in the story that made me wince and wonder why exactly she reacted the way she did for me to continue with the series. I would possibly try the author again though.

This series is only getting better, and while I still like Lucifer’s Daughter a little better, Snowballs In Hell makes for a very strong sequel.

After her encounter with “The Master� in the finale of Lucifer’s Daughter a curse has been placed on Muriel to feel fear, not something that this princess of hell is used to. Terrifying nightmares have her screaming herself awake every night and whenever she is confronted with a figure in a hood she passes out.

After speaking with the Mages of Hell Muriel discovers that she must bring a third into her bed to help give her enough power to break the crippling spell on her mind. But Muriel can’t stand to break her conceptions of a proper relationship which should only consist of a man and a woman. She loves Auric and can’t bear to give herself to another man, let alone his best friend.

Auric however wants David � the shape shifter � to join them if it will help his soul mate and he does everything in his power to ensure that he sees that, including going on a sudden mission and leaving David as her bodyguard.

Muriel is only so strong, and it seems that her Nympho-magic is stronger.

Once again I loved Muriel; she is everything I want in a female lead. She is strong, and can back up her tough words with some serious action. She is also a little bit selfish which is true of every woman. She wants her man all to herself and doesn’t want to share. She also has her values � absolutely hated by her father of course � that to have a proper loving relationship shouldn’t include another man. But when it comes down to the crunch Muriel can also, eventually, see what is best. Even if that includes her making the sacrifice of having two men pleasure instead of one...poor her.

Auric once again was not my favourite of characters, a little too overprotective and hard headed. One just can’t connect with him because he refuses to share his feelings. Only once do we get an insight to him throughout the whole story that he may actually be normal and not want to share Muriel but after that he goes back to being just a man who is there for Muriel to bed.

David I could actually connect with, but he seemed to have a character change halfway through. Going from cute and shy to domineering and stubborn, it didn’t ruin his character, but I just liked him before the change.

The only real disappointment that came with Snowballs In Hell was the complete lack of sexual adventure. For being the Devil’s daughter Muriel is actually quite vanilla when it comes to the bedroom. Although hot the sex is quite repetitive and mundane.


Snowballs In Hell was a fantastic follow up to Lucifer’s Daughter and while not quite as witty is proving to be a superb set-up for a third instalment in this fantastic series.

Review originally posted at .

Muriel is now out as the daughter of Lucifer. People are trying to assassinate her. Auric, a fallen angel and her lover, is getting even more protective of her. They aren’t even seeing that much of dear ‘ol Dad because he has his hands full dealing with tracking down these factions down in Hell. There is also the ramifications of the torture that Muriel endured in the first book. It is giving her horrible nightmares and making it difficult to fight.

When Muriel finds out that there is a curse on her that is causing her fear to be worse than it should be, she balks at the solution. See, Muriel gets her power from sex. She needs much more power than Auric can give her to break this spell. Muriel really wants to be faithful to Auric. It takes a lot of coercion for Auric to convince Muriel to bring in his best friend and cat shifter, David.

Oh, on top of this issue, Hell freezes over. It is quite a funny scene when Lucifer shows up at Muriel’s apartment in a red parka, to which she really makes fun of him. Here’s the problem with Hell freezing over; everyone who made a promise about “When Hell freezes over� are now going to have to fulfill that promise. You would think this is something that Lucifer would want, with the chaos and all, but the amount of paperwork would cut into his golf game, and we can’t have that.

I really enjoyed this addition to the story. I loved how Eve brought David into the relationship. It wasn’t just add another man and go have sex. There were a lot of thoughts and emotions from all three of the players. This story is told from Muriel’s POV, so we only get it from her side, but you can see how she responds to the two male’s reactions to the situation.

This was another great installment in this series. I’ll be reading Hell���s Revenge very soon, though not too soon. I’m trying to spread the books out a bit because I don’t want too big of gap between the last book I have and the new release, which doesn’t come out until early February.

“Keeping you safe isn’t treating you like a child. I’d say it shows foresight and care on his part.�
“It’s annoying.�
“Suck it up, princess.�
Had David really said that to me? Judging by the smirk on his lips and twinkle in his eyes, yes. Jerk.
Only one thing to do. I stuck my tongue out him. Treat me like a child and I’d act like one. He might have one the first round, but I wasn’t done yet. I’d nag him again later. Eventually I’d get my way. Just ask my dad. I rocked at getting what I wanted.

Quotes:
“You celebrate the birth of Christ?� asked David, his brows high in surprise.
“Not exactly. As you well know, Christ wasn’t born in December. Nope, we celebrate the solstice by decorating a big ass tree, setting it on fire and dancing naked around it.�
I said this so seriously that it took David a minute to realize I was messing with him.
I cracked up at the look in his face. “Oh, please. Of course I celebrate Christmas. Like hello, lots of presents for me. Do you really think I’d skip a holiday like that?�
“But your dad is Satan…� said David, still puzzled.
“Yes, and is there anything more twisted than the world’s current version of Christmas? My dad loves the holidays. He gets totally drunk off the greed and avarice.
Not to mention all the fornicating that happens at office parties. It’s his favorite time of the year.�
“That’s just sick,� said David with disgust.
I couldn’t help it, I giggled.



I knew I didn’t want to hear this and wondered if I stuck my fingers in my ears and hummed if David would get the point and go away.[I know the feeling Muri, I so know that feeling =))]


“Lucky for us, the magic is starting with the oldest entries first, and those people are already dead. So we have a little time before it hits the live ones.�
“Wait a second. Why do you care?� I asked my dad. “As Satan, shouldn’t you be cheering all the evil that’s going to come of this.�
My father shook his head. “Aah, Muri. If we don’t stop this, I’m going to be handing down punishments and dealing with paperwork for centuries. It will totally cut into my golf and wenching time.�
Now I rolled my eyes. My father, the altruistic one.



Hell looked kind of pretty covered in a pristine coat of white snow. Instead of ash trickling from the sky, fluffy snowflakes drifted down. Everywhere I looked, I could see demons bundled in layers and the souls of the damned tobogganing and throwing snowballs, and just having a good time. I liked it.
“You know what dad, this is actually a good look for Hell.�



I hated fanatics as they always seemed to commit the most horrific crimes in the name of a higher power. And then they had the nerve to question why they ended up in Hell.

This book picks up about one month after Lucifer’s Daughter ends. Muriel is still dealing with the ramifications of the end of Lucifer’s Daughter where she ends up in Hell, tortured by an unknown hooded figure. Back safe with her lover Auric, she has been having bad nightmares. The upside, she has been having a lot of sex � especially since it allows her magical abilities to rejuvenate. Her father Satan still has no idea why this mysterious person is trying to kill Muriel, but they all start to suspect it has something to do with her mother. Both Satan and Muriel have no idea who her mother was, and they realize some sort of spell was placed upon Muriel that makes it unable for her to remember. Since her magical powers is based off of having sex, the only solution to breaking this spell and getting answers is to � well, have more sex � with a a second man.

Snowballs in Hell is another cute, erotic installment in this series. I like Muriel’s voice. Being the princess of hell she has an attitude to go with that title, but she is also really in love with Auric and has a very good relationship with the devil, her father. It’s a little silly, but it is good silly. Someone is trying to overthrow the Devil, and Muriel is deeply involved. In this one, we get more emphasis on the smexin� than on the villain. It is determined the only way Muriel can break her spell to be able to pursue who her mother is, is to have sex with Auric..and someone else. That someone else turns out to be David, Auric’s good friend. Muriel is very against this scenario, but Auric wants her safe, and if having a ménage is the only way to do it, then darn it, they all three get into bed. And it is very sexy. I will say � the scenario of having to have a ménage to get rid of her spell isn’t my favorite. But it works pretty well in this story.

Both of these novellas are very quick reads and very entertaining. Paired with some very erotic sex scenes, I will read more from Eve Langlais.

Muriel, the princess of Hell is back and is has a problem. Ever since she came face to face with the hooded being that tried to kill her, Muriel wakes up every night screaming in fear. Muriel gets her magic from sex and the only way to brake the fear curse is for her to sleep with two men at once so gains enough power to destroy it.

I liked that Muriel's reaction to this news was an automatic no. She loves Auric and does not want to betray him by having sex with another man. Just because she is the devil's daughter that doesn't mean she doesn't believe in being faithful. It's actually Auric who convinces her to allow his best friend to join them. I'm generally not a fan of reading threesomes because I don't believe a person, even a fictional one, can say they love someone more than anything then turn around and say the exact same thing to another. And in some stories yet another person. But Eve did a really good job making this about helping Muriel and not about just adding sex and random emotions to the story. There were several scenes that would make a grown woman be jealous of Muriel. The relationship between Muriel and Auric is as strong as ever but Muriel has also made room in her heart for her new shapeshifter lover.

Aside from Muriel's relationship dilemma and having to fight of the usual assassination attempts, Hell has literally frozen over and the mysterious hooded man is at the heart of it all. The story isn't too dark and it has a lot of humor to it. The sex is hot and the characters are fun in this highly enjoyable novella. I liked the second book in Eve Langlais' series as much as the first and I look forward to seeing what she cooks up next for Muriel.

Oh my Goddess!!! I LOVED this book! I really, really enjoyed it!!!

As always I liked Muriel very much! She's a kick-ass girl - exactly as I like my favorite female characters!

Auric too, I liked him, even though sometimes I had the urge to throttle him.

David... mmmm... let's see... In the beginning I didn't want him to join the two birds (Muriel and Auric), I was with Muriel in thinking that it was wrong to have sex with a man who wasn't her beloved, her soulmate Auric, although I liked David almost from the start... And, well, yeah he's also hot, all right!
But then, as the events developed I found myself falling even more in love with David! And I think I maybe like him better than Auric (now, I'm expecting shouting against me on that). But don't get me wrong, I still want Muriel to be with Auric. I want David all for myself! He's mine!

The story also had me hooked and I liked this even more than the first book. And I want to read even more now! I sooo wish there will be a third book, because I am just starting to enjoy this new threesome and this out-of-the-ordinary Lucifer!

THIS BOOK TOO IS A MUST-READ, OF COURSE!

Now, the hardest part is rating this book.... I'm torn between giving 4 stars or 5 stars... A very hard choice!

Talk about dropping a bomb on me with that ending!

Book two in the Princess of Hell series might be a bit short, but definitely packs quite a punch. With only a month having gone by from the first book in the series, we almost pick up where we left off. Muriel is living in sin with her boyfriend Auric and everything seems to be as it should be with one exception... the constant nightmares. How can it be that Lucifer's daughter is having nightmares when she should be the one on the giving end not receiving? Well the cause is clear, but the cure is one that Muriel's having a problem accepting. It'll take a little devious action on Auric's part to make her see reason.

As the plot continues to thicken, a couple more elements are added to the story that will affect Muriel in a much more personal way. From start to finish this book will keep you riveted and I absolutely can not wait for the next in this series. I will just quickly mention that the various replays throughout the story from the first book, was a little distracting but not enough to affect my overall enjoyment.

If you haven't had the pleasure of reading an Eve Langlais story, then you should definitely give her Princess of Hell series a try. It's an absolute must for any paranormal reader.

Oh gods, I can't even articulate how much I hated this book. It's one of less than half a dozen I've been unable to grit my teeth through in 2017.

In the first book there was some serious character development that needed to happen but I gave it the benefit of the doubt thinking since it was a serious perhaps the author was just indulging in a slow-build scene setting. However we launch pretty much straight into sex with her boyfriend, then segue into a two minute conversation about a nightmare and have more sex.

I've never been a fan of books that forego character and plot for ridiculous sex scenes (and they are ridiculous, how many orgasms can one woman have in a morning? Seriously. Sheesh).

DNF This is where I show myself out
This series (Princess of Hell) took a fatal nosedive here.
If the lady says she ain't into it with you & your friend, Don't leave and try to get your friend to talk her into it. The lady says she ain't into it.
When two guys try to talk a girl into a sex act that she is not into, that is not romantic or fun.
I liked book 1, a lot. Book 2 made me feel creepy, and then it doubled down on the creepy. And then It just kept being creepy chapter after chapter.
The problem here is Eve Langlais. She has the imagination to have made this sexy, fun, and funny.
But she chose to make it awkward, angsty, and panty drying. Okay I quit.

I liked this one better because I didn't have as many expectations of it. Kind of shallow. Amusing. I already know the ending because I read a sequel. I decided to finish the series before I went back to the sequel series because I want to catch all the references.
