Publisher's Summary

"They say I'm half demon, but I like to think of myself as half human, especially as the demons want me dead."

Charlie Henderson is living a lie. Her real name is Muse and her attempt at a normal life is about to go up in smoke. When a half-demon assassin walks into her life, leaving a trail of destruction in his wake, Muse must return to the one man she hoped never to see again and ask for help. The Prince of Greed isn't known for his charity. The price is high, but the cost could tear her apart.

Trapped between the malevolent intentions of a Prince of Hell, an assassin with ulterior motives, and her bloodthirsty demon-kin, Muse must embrace the lure of chaos at her core; the demon inside her, in order to survive. When your ex is the Prince of Greed, you'd better be ready to raise hell.

Beyond the veil

The story was OK, it would have been much better with a different reader or two readers, someone else to do the male voices, Hollie the narrator, her voice is too sweet sounding for a kick ass story, made it hard to loose yourself in the story, hope the next book, they take this review on board an add a male narrator. If the next book has the same narrator I don't think I would buy it.

A gripping series

Great book with many twists and turns. You don’t know who is actually on Muse’s side till the end. Look forward to the next book to see how she rescues her love. Great reader for this book.

Not bad.

Would you be willing to try another book from Pippa DaCosta? Why or why not?

I would continue with the rest of the series but in written form, don't think I could continue with this narrator.

What didn’t you like about Hollie Jackson’s performance?

Hollie has a nice voice, just didn't suit for this story. I found she paused to long between sentences, increasing the speed didn't help this. Didn't seem to be much change in voice or inflection, so was hard to tell when a character was talking or narrating the story.

Any additional comments?

Good idea for a story. Muse is half demon half human & hunted by demons, despised by her full demon brother & someone has stepped up their game to kill her. But is it the demon who saved her from slavery Akil or the new half demon Stefan who has just suddenly showed up in her life. Attracted to both but unable to trust either Muse tries to keep her head down but her inner demon just wants out & destruction.

***Riveting, addictive***

Wow I can't believed it had taken me so long to buy this book (audio) its fast paced, suspenseful brilliantly written, it's exhilarating and thrilling that grips you from beginning to end. Hollie Jackson's narrative compels you and immersed you into this world. Thanks Pippa DaCosta and Hollie Jackson. X
