A Demon's Guide to Wooing a Witch

De: Sarah Hawley

Narrado por: Helen Laser

Calladia Cunnington curses the day she met Astaroth the demon, but when he shows up memoryless, why does she find him so helpless . . . and sort of hot?

Calladia Cunnington knows she’s rough around the edges, despite being the heir to one of small-town Glimmer Falls’ founding witch families. While her gym obsession is a great outlet for her anxieties and anger, her hot temper still gets the best of her and manifests in bar brawls. When Calladia saves someone from a demon attack one night, though, she’s happy to put her magic and rage to good use . . . until she realizes the man she saved is none other than Astaroth, the ruthless demon who orchestrated a soul bargain on her best friend.

Astaroth is a legendary soul bargainer and one of the nine members of the demon high council—except he can’t remember any of this. Suffering from amnesia after being banished to the mortal plane, Astaroth doesn’t know why a demon named Moloch is after him, nor why the muscular, angry, hot-in-a-terrifying-way witch who saved him hates him so much.

Unable to leave anyone in such a vulnerable state—even the most despicable demon—Calladia grudgingly decides to help him. (Besides, punching an amnesiac would be in poor taste.) The two set out on an uneasy road trip to find the witch who might be able to restore Astaroth’s memory so they can learn how to defeat Moloch. Calladia vows that once Astaroth is cured, she’ll kick his ass, but the more time she spends with the snarky yet utterly charming demon, the more she realizes she likes this new, improved Astaroth . . . and maybe she doesn’t want him to recover his memories, after all.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Full of witty dialogue and steamy sexual tension, the novel unfolds at a steady pace and draws the reader in. Though this is only her sophomore effort, Hawley is bound to become a staple for readers of paranormal romances. Recommend to fans of Katie MacAlister, Lana Harper, and Molly Harper.”—Library Journal, starred review

"I devoured this story! Each book in this series gets better, too. It's fun and rompy and full of fantastical shenanigans. I love the message—that a heroine who thinks she's 'too much' is perfection in her hero's eyes. The hero Astaroth is book boyfriend crack. He was made for readers like me—he's utterly gone for the heroine the moment he meets her, he's a villain (swoon), and he's willing to burn down the world just to impress her. Hard not to fall in love with a hero (villain?) like that! I also loved that Sarah Hawley's stories feel like she's taken Kresley Cole's expansive worldbuilding and plopped it into a small town. You get the cozy vibes mixed with the fun of the different magical races clashing. Can't wait to read the next one!"—USA Today bestselling author Ruby Dixon

"A Demon's Guide to Wooing a Witch is a deliriously sexy romp, featuring my own personal brand of fiction kryptonite: a kick-ass heroine who puts the bad boy in his place, only to have him fall in love with her for it. Hawley has a unique talent for comedic writing, and Astaroth and Calladia are as hilarious together as they are smoking hot. I hope this series never ends!”—Jenna Levine, USA Today bestselling author of My Roommate is a Vampire

Even better than the first book.

Fun characters, great story, and a magical listen. It is worth a listen and I cannot wait for the next book.

enemies to lovers

As the second book in this series and how it was left in the first i wasn't to sure where the story line was going to play out. But it is a enemies to lovers story. With a bad ass heroine. The journey to become a better person and to learn to grow was very good. The spice level in this book is definitely double what was in book one.

the reader

I loved that the story picked up exactly where it left off with the characters but still evolved onto its own story and making me live thes characters even more. Great book

I want more

Fantasy aside, the “love” scenes were actually believable. I can’t wait for the next book to come out!

Never Let Anyone Dull Your Shine

The characters feel so real even in the fantasy setting. This is what a sequel should be. It makes you happy to return to Glammer Falls and excited to find out more is to come.

I appreciate that there is a strong female lead that does not have to weaken herself for the male lead. She has learned from past experiences and is staying true to herself. I too have been told I am too much for people, that I should come with a warning label. It is always nice to relate to a character that is unapologetically themselves.

Enjoy the fantasy but learn from the characters.

Feisty and fun

Astaroth and Calladia are equals who push each other and make this such a fun read/listen! Great banter, good character development, and the perfect 🌶️🌶️🌶️ enemies-to-lovers with a bit of a spooky season vibe.

More fun from Glimmer Falls

These stories continue to get better and the world building develops more with the books. Definitely recommend all books by Sarah Hawley and it's worth the listen. Lots of fun with good morals and guides to living your best self.

cute story with spice

This was an entertaining journey. There was plenty of build up to the spice but when it arrived it did not disappoint.

Fun story

I really enjoy this series and am excited for the next one. I’m buying it now!

That I liked this better than the first book

I found the story, dialog and other story lines better than the first. This is unusual for me but I felt the themes triggered the good parts of fighting back and and dialog more engaging as well
