Succubus in the City (Succubus, #1)

by Nina Harper

“Sleek, sexy, and fun.”—Susan Sizemore, author of Primal Desires

After three thousand years of one-night stands, a girl just wants a little more. 

Working for Satan is a hot gig. The Devil really does wear Prada, and Lily can sport all the dazzling fashion she desires, eat all the fabulous food she craves, and hang for all eternity with her three demon girlfriends. But serving up bad boys to the fiery pits of Hell is just getting . . . lonely.

Lily gives the jerks, the creeps, and the liars the best (and last) night of their lives, but she’s tired of waking up to a pile of ashes. She wants a guy who will stick around.

But a mysterious man is turning up the heat . . . 

Nathan Coleman is a devilishly handsome, laid-back P.I. who wants to ask Lily a few questions about a missing man. But someone—or something—wants Lily and her friends dead, and Nathan seems to know more than he’ll admit to. Can a sweet-talking mortal and a girl from Hell find true love?

Lily works in a fashion magazine by day and is a succubus by (some) night(s). Her girlfriends are also demons. They're all trying to get on with their jobs both in the real and demon world and dealing with the aftermaths of their demonic jobs. Theres also a fundamentalist group looking to stop them.

When Nathan Coleman enters her life Lily is intrigued, then they become friends and she wonders if he would be the one to make her human again.

Entertaining but nothing much, reminded me of Sex and the City, only with men turning into dust. The Label dropping was pervasive, the character didn't have a bath, she used Lush bombs; she never ate another type of ice-cream than Ben & Jerrys and her clothes are annotated. I was a little annoyed at the 3 mentions of the old saw going that a succubus seduces good husbands and pillars of the community, fine, got it the first time but by page 140 it was getting tired. I've read worse though and it did keep me reading.
