I initially thought that The Demon Lover was a romance novel, but it turned out to be much, much more. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a lot more complicated than I had expected as well. 
 Callie McFay has just moved to Fairwick but she's finding herself haunted by an incubus. Later on, she discovers the town to be inhibited by all forms of supernatural creatures like witches, demons, fairies, etc and so starts her journey into a life she never imagined for herself. 
 The story is definitely intriguing and it weaves multiple story lines into one cohesive and brilliant novel. It's very descriptive and vivid and you do feel like you're part of the story. But at times, I did feel like the story dragged on and I couldn't decipher where it was that the author wanted to take us. In addition, when more and more supernatural creatures were introduced, I had a hard time keeping it in my head, trying to remember which character was what supernatural being. 
 The romance, or shall we say smut, while well-written felt far and in between. The plot lines involving the other characters left me guessing left right and center but when it came to the incubus, I predicted everything right, which is a shame. 
 I understand there's going to be a sequel, which is just as well since the ending of this gave me no closure. It's more of an emotional cliff-hanger than anything else since it did tie up some loose ends, and set up more stuff for the sequel. Oh well.
