Luck of the Devil by Patricia Eimer is a hilarious novel about Faith Bettincourt, daughter to the Devil. Faith has an unexpected family reunion when the Devil himself comes to town bringing along her mortal mother. Also in for the ride – her demon half brother and her demon sister with her husband and a slew of marital problems. Added to the mix is Faith’s succubus roommate, a ghost that won’t quit haunting her, and a hot next door neighbor that just might not be all mortal either.
While I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from the synopsis, this book definitely surpassed any initial concerns I had. The writing was fun and light, and the scenarios were drop dead funny. Faith’s character is so likeable, and her romance with the next door neighbor is hotter than hell itself. There was a little tug of mystery that kept the story moving along for me, and the mother….just comical. All the characters brought something to the table, and I had a lot of fun reading this book. I hope to enjoy more from Patricia Eimer!
