Book Review: Sinful Touch (Demons After Dark: Temptation #1)

Sinful Touch (Demons After Dark: Temptation Book 1) 

Sinful Touch

Jenna Wolfhart

Overall: 2/5

Plot and themes: 3/5

Characters: 3/5

Writing style: 2/5

Attention-grabbing: 2/5

Sinful Touch is the first book in another series installment of the Demons After Dark. There's no additional reading required to be able to understand this one though. Eva wants to be a reporter but she's been stuck for six years on desk jobs. When she meets a demon one night, her boss sees it as the perfect opportunity for her promotion. Caim sees it as a great chance for some insider information on a cult designed to release some less savory demons into the world. They're both lying to one another, but can't seem to help seeing the best in each other. 

My main problem was that there was nothing truly special about any of the plot lines. It's like, if I have to pick between cool powers and a good romance I should at least get one of them. Instead, I got kind of an insta-love combined with a demon whose powers were poorly defined. I didn't hate it, while reading it's interesting enough to get to the end. But it also doesn't feel like a book that could be continued to a more exciting series. 

I don't know, on the spectrum of demon romances this is probably mid-tier but not special enough to be truly amazing. I would say it's not really anything that inspires frustration, just sort of ambivalence.
