About this audiobook
Ever since my parents died in the demon war, I've paid my way through life by using magic to con people. It's not right, but a girl's gotta do what she can to survive.
Unfortunately, my latest con has left me smack dab in the middle of a murder scene. Now, a coven of angry mages thinks I'm the killer. In order to clear my name, I have to team up with an infuriatingly sexy warlock whose powers are far darker than he admits. Throw in a string of related murders and a vexed vampire clan, and I'm up to my eyeballs in danger.
But that's not even the worst of it. When I get too close to the real killer, he casts a life-threatening curse on my grandmother. Before, I just wanted to save my own butt, but now I'll do whatever it takes to track him down-even if it means following him through monstrous dimensions.
Because I don't play nice with magic. And when you mess with Grandma, you become #1 on my shit list.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I liked it, it was a quick read and not too deep. A Bone Coven witch, Zoe, untrained and conning people into paying her to eradicate demons is framed for murder. A dangerous stranger steps up to assist her. They both have their secrets but must work together to clear her name, lift a curse on her grandmother and stop an all out war between the vampires and the covens. Along the way they must fight demons to try and save their friends and the world. Overall, a fast easy read
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5My audio book selection has been exploring the many options of the urban fantasy domain and many I'm finding are ... not to taste. This one had a unique opening, I must say. She's a real witch, but conning normals because they don't know any better. Then gets arrested for a magical murder she didn't commit. It drew me in. The character reminds me a touch of Merit from Chicagoland Vampires. Things didn't improve from there.Things I'm finding I dislike about UF books: if you have one supernatural creature, you HAVE to have all of them. But the author doesn't always flesh out all the different supers powers so they can shift from book to book or even chapter to chapter. Mrph. So far this series has shown magic and vampires and demons. I'm just waiting for shifters and fae to show up.Perfect way to throw a reader out of the story. Author didn't pay attention to her description of the hallway or the character's thoughts. She's describing a battle the character claimed she couldn't see. There's no mention of a balcony or if this goes straight into the room. The whole thing just doesn't work for the opening description. The Main Character feels so skittish, so unsure of life. Okay, yes, her world just got upended because they drew her into coven politics. However, that doesn't mean she should sound so wishy washy. Her grandmother gave her a fricking grimoire for the Shadow clan. She had all the knowledge she needs in that book. Why won't she use it?Oh the phraseology is making me laugh. "Threw my feet up the stairs." "Relief whooshed through me." The first does not give the image the writer thinks. The second could be better written, for a better illustration, as it's more tell than show. Tack onto the bad phraseology the glitch in trying to write romance that isn't working. The writer is TRYING to build tension, both emotional and "physical" between the main characters, but her writing style and characterization of the two main characters instead make it awkward and horribly forced. It just isn't working.So the story builds and builds and builds ... Then the reader falls off a cliff for a swift resolution and just END. Very disappointed in how it ended.I'll consider the next in the series, after I've tried several other options first.
