Lucifer's Daughter (Princess of Hell, Book 1) [Kindle Edition]

Eve Langlais (Author)

Book Description

Hi, I'm Muriel, the only white sheep in a sea of black ones, and a virgin to boot. I am determined to wait for love, but my Dad, more commonly known as Lucifer, just wants me to stop being an embarrassment. I'm hoping the hunk I met in my bar will turn out to be the one-just looking at him makes my insides melt like marshmallows over the coals of Hell, but trusting is hard when it seems everyone I get close to ends up trying to kill me.

Not only am I dealing with an extreme case of lust, there's a new threat in Hell, one my Dad says to ignore. Something easier said than done since it seems everywhere I turn demons are trying to kill me. But I'm okay with that, because one thing I've learned being a princess of Hell is that sometimes I have to grab a demon by the horns and slap it around a bit.

A rebellion in Hell, demon assassins and scorching kisses, could my life get any more interesting?

4.0 out of 5 stars Sexy fun July 26, 2011

By BarkLessWagMore

Format:Kindle Edition

Muriel, virgin daughter of Satan, has been saving herself for love with the perfect man while making her dad the laughingstock of hell. His incessant nagging gets on her nerves but it's not easy finding the right guy. He can't be 100% mortal or she'd likely crush him in the heat of the heat of the moment, he has to be super-hot and honestly not any old guy will accept Satan as a future father-in-law. She resigns herself to a future of longing and nagging.

Muriel no longer lives under Satan's thumb but in a realm populated by humans and supernaturals that is very much like the mortal realm only with things like the "Damned" network and Survivor: Burn In Hell. Sounds like a fun place to me! She owns a bar that is popular with the supernatural beasties because she is a "null" which makes the 100' surrounding her a magic-free zone. One night, soon after another nagging visit from Satan, a hunk named Auric and his two gorgeous pals show up. She assumes Satan is testing her. But instead of wooing her, Auric is almost gruff as he demands to meet the owner of the bar. She refuses to answer him honestly, hell she's been dodging assassins most of her life, but something about him fuels her lust as no other man has done. He's hiding things as well but their connection is something neither can resist for long and once he kisses her he may just lose her virginity after all.

Though this story doesn't hold any major surprises, especially when Auric's secret is revealed, it was cute and pure sexy fun and so very easy to read. Muriel is funny and sarcastic and even though a virgin by choice, is not a prude. She can take care of herself but Auric, big He-man protector hasn't a clue and assumes she's a helpless little female.... When he attempts to "save" her from a hellhound, not knowing she's a daughter of Satan this fun exchange happens:

My heart fluttered. He'd called me pretty. He'd wanted to protect me. How cute-but so unnecessary.

"I appreciate the thought behind it, but really, I can take care of myself."
"Even against hellhounds?" he said skeptically.
"Piece of cake," I boasted. That wasn't, technically, giving anything away. Lots of special folk could take care of hellhounds.
"Just who and what are you?" asked Auric. His questions were getting repetitive. I rolled my eyes. "I told you, my name is Muriel."
Auric crossed his arms over his chest-did I mention he had a really broad chest?-and gave me a stern look. Oh, please, once Satan gave you `the look,' all other looks paled in comparison. I just glared right back at him `til he sighed with exasperation-another sound I was familiar with.

This story wraps everything up in a satisfying way but it could have been another 300 pages and I bet I would've enjoyed reading more because I loved the writing style so much. There aren't a lot of writers I've found who can balance such strong sexual tension with a fun paranormal plot without their characters coming across as obnoxious or silly. This author succeeds for me and if these snippets make you grin you may want to check it out too.

Satan is hilarious as a frustrated daddy.

"I don't know why, but I'm attached to you, too," Satan said grumpily, hugging me back. I cherished moments like that; they tended to be few and far between. "Try to be bad," he said, before popping out of sight."

And Muriel's sense of humor just completely won me over

"Rolling my eyes, I again had to question why men had to be so stubborn. "Seriously, Auric, you do not want to mess with this thing."
"I've dealt with demons before," he said, pulling out a sword from behind his kitchen counter. I had to admit being impressed-his sword was long, shiny, and hard. Wait, that didn't sound right. Needless to say, he had a big one; and judging by the way he moved it, he also knew how to use it. Damn, I was even hornier than before. But right after I finished admiring his sword, I clued in to what he'd said. "What do you mean, you've dealt with demons before?" Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars A paranormal romance that is hot and funny December 11, 2011

By DarkBloodyVamp

Format:Kindle Edition

I was very intrigued to read this book and did not know what to expect when I got and I have to say I was happily surprised. I did not expect this book to have so much humour since it was about Satan and his daughter. This book not only had some very hot and steamy scenes but some laughing out loud moments that I actually had to suppress my laughter one day as I was reading the book on the train on my way to work.

As the title states this book is about Satan's daughter but she is far different than you would have expected. For one she is a a good girl and despite being Satan's daughter and having the ability to use her powers to command others she lives a pretty normal existence. That is until 3 gorgeous looking hunks walk into her bar and one of the captures her heart.

Auric is tough and powerful and has an aura of self-confidence but Muriel doesn't know what he is and he isn't about to mention it. What happens next are passions are unleashed between the two but unfortunately factors stand in the way towards there happiness, namely Muriel's father, someone trying to kill Muriel and Auric's past. The story was fast paced and had enough action both under the sheets and above to keep the reader's attention and intrigued.

What happens in the end will have the reader wanting more and to know what is going to happen next not only between Muriel and Auric but within the depths of Hell. Lucifer's Daughter

Lucifers Daughter Eve Langlais

I received this book free via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. I don't gush and give false praise - I don't believe that helps readers or authors so what you read is what I truly feel about a book.

Muriel is Satan's daughter - a virgin still at 23 and holding out for true love Satan is disappointed in her failure to live up to the demonising ways he wants. He loves her though, and is always trying to get her to flip over to the "dark" side of morality. She has lots of half siblings, mostly incubus/succubus so Satan's very happy with their morals of course! We meet one, Bambi (Bambi the succubus - what irony!) who tries to help Muriel and protect her. Satan isn't the bad guy we expect - just one who loves his family and tries to live up to his reputation. He's a soft spot for Muriel and pops in almost daily to chat to her and offer tips on how to lose her virginity or do something to keep up the family reputation for evil. Muriel owns a bar and one evening three gorgeous hunks stroll in...life is never quite the same after wards.

Eve has a great way with words - I read one of her books last summer and it had me in stitches, this one has similar results. Whilst I was reading I couldn't help the sniggers slipping out and Him Indoors kept saying "what's so funny?" but you have to read it in context to understand it. Satan has some great lines, Muriel is lovely, one of life's innocents in many ways and yet being brought up by Lucifer she is very familiar with the world of hell-hounds and the dangers of demons. Suddenly however it seems that more than usual number of demons are out to kill her and there are whispers of another uprising to overthrow Lucifer.... The plot thickens, Muriel's finds sizzling romance ( and a good helping of lust), demons abound, there are captures and escapes and all wrapped up in some fantastic snarky quips from Lucifer.

The book is written from Muriel's point of view and very dialogue based - my favourite type. It allows the quips and humour to come through and makes me feel as though I'm present in the novel. The characters are well written and feel real, and I was quickly drawn into the novel and the actions and drama. Its fast paced and the humour just shines through - its a kind of demon-lit novel. Super-lit? Fantasy-lit? Hard to describe but like a chick-lit but with supernatural characters. They feel real though and its easy to get absorbed into the events. Muriel's brilliant, proud she can protect herself and yet happy like lots of females for a real Alpha male to take charge (or at least think he's in charge - we all know how to do that don't we ?) And Auric is certainly all Alpha male. He has secrets though and Muriel needs to know what they are. I love when she goes out with him against dads edict and he them tells her she's grounded - but the demon carrying the message is confused by it :) the novel is full of little quirks like that and made me laugh - a lot.

Its a funny light-hearted feel good book, not a great in-depth drama but one to relax with and lose yourself in for a few hours. Its an easy read with no huge surprises but fun all the way through. There;s sex here, scorching hot sex at times but not too graphic and it fits the plot lines perfectly. If you want a sexy, light, romantic fantasy read to brighten your spirits for a while this is it. I hope Eve writes more from Lucifer and Muriel ( and the delicious Auric of course).

Stars: well, its well edited, a bit short for me at 110 pages but that's personal taste. I love long novels being a quick reader, but have friends who want short books as they only read a few pages at a time and want a book they can finish. Actually this is the perfect read for a train ride or something like that. Priced at Ł1.99 its par for the course with similar novels and worth the money. I'm giving it four stars. Read more ›
