A great addition to a fun series - funny, sweet and romantic!,

This review is from: Sex & the Immortal Bad Boy (Immortally Sexy, Book 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
Just when things were looking up for Rivka wanna-be Paige Darlington --after all her soul is only a little smutty from her internship with Satan's enforcer-- Paige discovers that she is about to turn wraith and become Satan's most powerful weapon ever. Her touch is deadly to anyone not totally evil. Bummer, no more comforting hugs from her immortal friends, even Bekka and Teresa are not safe. Enter bad boy Shadow Warrior assassin Jeb Buchanan, not only is he damned, Jeb's soul is dark enough that he's immune her touch - well maybe immune is not the right word. Not only can he touch her, and kiss her and hold her, but he is the only one that can soothe her blood thirsty emerging inner wraith.
So with Satan unwilling to free Paige from her curse as he's busy interviewing new consorts, and Satan Jr. threatening to throw Jeb's brother into the eternal torture chamber if Jeb doesn't help to turn Paige wraith in a powerplay to take over hell from his dad, Paige and Jeb only have two days to try and find `door number three'- a way to save both Paige and his brother. As it stands it looks pretty hopeless. Of course Jeb wants to save his brother from an eternity of pain and insanity, but can he destroy everything sunny and innocent in Paige to do it? Stephanie Rowe delivers another wonderful rollicking escapade along with a sweet and slowly building romance with plenty of chemistry between two truly likeable characters. You can't help but root for Paige and Jeb, as Paige manages to bring sunshine to Jeb's bleak existence even when they see no hope for a happily ever after. I really liked Sex and the Immortal Bad Boy and I can't wait to see what Stephanie does with Mona and Ralph, I can't even imagine where Rowe is going to take that romance. You can probably read this as a stand-alone, but I think you will find it funnier if you know all the side characters that pop up from earlier books. So to get maxium enjoyment, go back and read at least the first, Date Me, Baby, One More time. This is a fun zany series. The other books in this series are: Must Love Dragons He Loves Me, He Loves Me Hot (Warner Forever)

Laugh-out-loud good story,

Reviewed by Megan Politte
In this paranormal romance, Paige Darlington is finally free of the literal boss from hell himself--Satan. There's just one hitch: she's been cursed. Paige was designed by Satan to be his ultimate weapon--a wraith. She all of the sudden turns into a killing machine. Everything she touches dies, from flowers and grass to Angels from Heaven. There's only one person who can handle her death touch--Jed Buchanan. Jed just happens to be one of the most feared beings. He's a Shadow Warrior and Satan Jr.'s favorite assassin. Paige pays Jed to guard her from herself and her inner wraith. He decides to help her but has to come up with a good excuse when Satan Jr. wants to know why his best assassin has softened his heart. Once Junior finds out what Paige is, he wants her all to himself and commands Jed to free her from Satan and bring her over to his side--by making her fall in love with Jed. Time is running out for Paige as her wraith gets stronger and stronger. The only way for Paige to be free is for her to sneak past the pearly gates and bathe in one of Heaven's cleansing moats, and the only person who can help her do that is Jed. Stephanie Rowe has written another hilarious installment in her Immortal series. Paige's antics will have you laughing all the way through this witty paranormal romance and begging for more! It has everything a romance lover looks for: fun characters, a sizzling romance and lots of action. Armchair Interviews says: Good luck putting this one down!!

Laugh Out Loud Fun!,
This review is from: Sex & the Immortal Bad Boy (Immortally Sexy, Book 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
Who would have thought that a book about dragons, wraiths and an espresso machine could be so much fun? This is Stephanie Rowe's fourth book in the series and I'm still amazed as her imagination and sense of humor! Every book in this series has made me laugh out loud and this was no exception.
In this installment, Paige, a Rivka recently freed from Satan's life force and now a free agent, feels herself turning to the dark side. When she finds out that Satan created her as his ultimate new weapon - a Rivka that would turn into a wraith, a ruthless being whose touch incinerates any being with even a little bit of good in them, Paige is distraught to say the least. The prospect of never casually touching or hugging her friends spurs Paige to find a solution. Enter hottie Jed Buchannan, an assassin for Satan, Jr., not only can Paige touch him, but she craves his touch. But Jed has his own problems, like keeping Satan, Jr. from torturing his brother if he does not force Paige's turning and make her loyal to Jr. And let's not forget a heartbroken Satan with his own apocalyptic agenda. Paige will need the help of her friends (a lovably odd cast of characters), her hottie bodyguard and Mona the Espresso Machine to find her way out of this mess. The world Stephanie Rowe has created is funny, bizarre and completely fascinating. If you enjoy a great read with a side order of laughter, you definitely need to pick up this series. You can read this as a stand alone, but really why would you? All four books are fantastic! Start with Date Me Baby One More Time, dive into Must Love Dragons (my personal favorite), then He Loves Me, He Loves Me Hot and finally finish up with Sex & the Immortal Bad Boy. Then you can anxiously await the next installment with the rest of us. Happy reading.

A fireball of fun!,

This review is from: Sex & the Immortal Bad Boy (Immortally Sexy, Book 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
Rowe has done it again with the 4th in her fun paranormal series! I laughed, gasped, and even got a little teary-eyed at times. Rowe's characters are fun and complex, her world-building fabulous, and her on-the-edge-of-your-seat stories keep you reading at a fast pace. Highly recommended! Try the first three in the series also, for the full fantastic effect!

first three read the fourth don't bother!,
By Jinx Fantasy (N.J.) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Sex & the Immortal Bad Boy (Immortally Sexy, Book 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
I loved the first three books. They made me laugh outloud! So of course I
preordered the fourth and had high expectations, which it failed to meet. The story in my view totally lacked the humor of the others. Paige lacked the self confindence of the previous heroines and seemed to look for everyone else to get her out of trouble instead of trying herself. Her constant cheerfulness was annoying, She was staying at Becca's and doing nothing with her life but surposedly fighting her soul going black while longing for a bad boy! Spoiler alert in the end she ends up saved by Jed by him bathing her in heavens river something that is said early on couldn't handle what was happening to her and would probarbly end up destorying heaven! The villans in the book is the council, men in white, and an angel who she killed but hey it's ok he had sexually molested one of his charges. It feels like the series is going to close soon with a story of Mona and Jeds brother. Hopefully some of the laughter will come back and it will end with a story that delights us instead of another that makes us wonder how did such a great series go downhill. I love rereading my books but this one I only read a second time, and was hoping that during the reread my opinion of the book would improve but it failed to do so. Read the first three the fourth don't bother! Or if you must read it get it from the liabray and read it before buying so you can decide yourself whether it's worth keeping. I wish I did.

4.0 out of 5 stars
fans will enjoy going to hell in a hand basket,
This review is from: Sex & the Immortal Bad Boy (Immortally Sexy, Book 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
Being one month old means little to Paige Darlington as a person matures rather fast when working for the boss from Hell, Satan, as an apprentice rivka. However, the rookie rivka wants what her former mentor has recently achieved although it took Becka Gibbs a few millenniums (see HE LOVES ME, HE LOVES ME HOT); she desires breaking free of Satan's hoofs.
However Satan has learned from his mistake with Becka so in creating Paige he added a diabolical touch; any living thing that touches her dies. Thus Paige who wants love like Becka found, feels lonely and ponders how she will survive eternity as a subservient to her master. That is until she meets shadow warrior Jed Buchanan, who has a Faustian deal with Satan Jr. to save his brother's soul. Jed does not seem to desire Paige who wonders if his shriveled soul can be saved by her before he completes his latest task killing her. The latest trip to the Rowe pantheon is an amusing but darker thriller than the previous journeys to this weird but entertaining universe. Fans of the series will enjoy the devilish goings on as the demonic assassin and the rookie rivka begin to fall in love over the consternation of Satan father and son. Although lacking some of the freshness of the just as wild predecessors, fans will enjoy going to hell in a hand basket with Stephanie Rowe at the oars. Harriet Klausner

Laugh Out Loud Funny,
By
This review is from: Sex & the Immortal Bad Boy (Immortally Sexy, Book 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
Each story by Ms. Rowe is unique and an attention grabber, just like this title.
During each of the previous stories by Ms. Rowe you've been introduced to characters that are a little different, and this story is not different in that regard. You got to 'know' the heroine slightly in the previous book, in this story you see that even though she's supposed to be evil she doesn't want to be. The hero....well...he has his own problems. This book is a laugh a minute and not to be missed! Let me describe it like this......... It's about Satan's former right-hand apprentice - Paige Darlington, and Satan Jr's shadow warrior/assassin - Jed Buchanan. Paige Darlington has a 'slight' problem besides being a demon that is. She wants to love and feel emotions, but when Satan created her he added a little something. Anything Paige touches that's alive will die, and as more people/things die by her touch she starts becoming more and more evil. Paige really hates it, and will do whatever she can to stop it. To keep his brother alive, Jed Buchanan works for Satan Jr., the heir to hell and the most evil being in existence. Jed has been forced to do a lot of unsavory things during his time on the 'job'. Do you think a demon and an assassin can find happiness before everything goes to hell? ::grinning:: I'm not saying, read the book I think you'll enjoy it, I know I did!

Fantastic!!,

This review is from: Sex & the Immortal Bad Boy (Immortally Sexy, Book 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
Satan and his lovable minions are back in full force! You will remember newbie Rivka, Page Darlington, from Rowe's previous book, He Loves me He Loves me Hot.
The bright as sunshine, month old virgin is at her best in the newest book in the series. Paige is free from Satan or so she thought. She is out to reverse the curse, courtesy of boss from hell, so she can keep her emotions not to mention her soul. Jeb Buchanan is just the super hot otherworldly man to do it. A shadow warrior and Satan Jr's assassin, he is more than up to the task of making sure that the curse isn't fulfilled. The romance between the two of them is intense, fun and believable from beginning to end! The book is a fast-paced, laugh a minute read (Satan,is at his comedic best)that will leave you begging for another book in the series fast before you start going into withdraws! Definitely pre-order this book for its November release and make room on your keeper shelf, because you won't want to give this one up!

Fantastic!,
This review is from: Sex & the Immortal Bad Boy (Immortally Sexy, Book 4) (Mass Market Paperback)
I started reading this book with very high expectations, I have read her other previous ones and liked them very much and so I expected to like this one too, no doubt about it!
I'm very glad to say, Stephanie certainly did not disappoint. This story was laugh-out-loud funny and witty and so romantic! the chemistry between Paige and Jeb was believable and so sweet. It was a hard-paced paranormal romance with fantastic characters. I definitely recommend everyone preorders this book for when it comes out in November! |
