Praise and Reviews
Kate loves bad boys—the only
problem is that bad boys only seem to exist in the movies, and Kate hasn’t had
a date in weeks. All she wants is to wake up on a Saturday morning snuggled up
next to a studly guy. So she jokingly asks Satan to send her his baddest bad
boy because she’s definitely ready and willing. When a breathtakingly gorgeous
guy rings her
doorbell dressed like Robin Hood, she thinks her friends are playing a joke on
her. She soon learns her heart’s desire may have been granted after all. Maybe
she should have been a little more careful before throwing wishes around.
Poor Zellachrastides, or Zel for short, is just a third-degree incubus who
hasn’t been doing so well in seducing the ladies. Kate is his last chance to
prove that he can seduce with the best of them and make First Degree Incubi.
After all, his brothers did it in only six months—Zel hasn’t in the past ten
millennia, and now he only has until tomorrow morning at nine o’clock to get
the job done. Could it be that Zel is looking for more than just a one-night
seduction?
Sweet, enjoyable, and a little
outrageous (in a good way), Demon in Blue Jeans will have you walking
back into the office after lunch with a smile on your face. Ms. Sweeney does a
good job of developing her characters in the short confines of the story. She
brings out their characteristics in a vivid way, and I could picture the
interaction between Kate and Zel in blazing color. Along with a good, solid
plot, all that makes this one great read.
Because Satan sent a demon to seduce a horny young woman, the plot may seem
absurd to some, but as long as it entertains me, I don’t care how preposterous
the plot is. Sometimes, you just have to suspend your belief and get carried
away with a total fantasy. And Toni V. Sweeney definitely delivers with Demon
in Blue Jeans.
With its touch of humor and
its sizzling romance, Demon in Blue Jeans is a short, sexy lunchtime
romp that I’d recommend any day of the week.

Kate forgot about this age-old warning
when she asked Satan to send her a bad boy to fulfill all her darkest
desires. The next night Zel, a third level incubus, shows up at her
apartment door. But Zel isn't really a bad boy, more like an
under-achiever getting his last chance to succeed or else. Can these two
people make a relationship work or will Satan get two souls for the price of
one wish?
Toni V. Sweeney has written another one of her trademark excellent stories with
Demon in Blue Jeans. Ms. Sweeney is known for taking the
unusual and making it seem not only possible, but normal. Who else would
make a demon sweet, sensitive and inept? I love her hero and heroine
because they both seem like people I would know. I also love the way
she tells a story; she always sets the scene really well and the details are
great. The ending also leaves open the possibility of sequels for Kate's
friends and I dearly hope that Ms. Sweeney decides to go with this as a series.
Can't wait to read the next one.

A
DEMON IN BLUE JEANS provides rollicking fun mixed with heady emotion and
enthusiastic sex – a perfect combination! This is a perfect short story to take
along to occupy yourself during some unexpected downtime; it’s a quick read,
funny, and leaves the reader with happy feelings. I loved the way Toni V.
Sweeney imbued the story with the sense of real people and situations to this
paranormal tale. I felt as if Kate could have been one of my girlfriends, who
just happened to get herself into a sticky situation that turned out
wonderfully. Zel was a delightful character with his quirky, unsure ways, but
always willing to give it a go. While Kate and Zel’s relationship did not start
out in a normal way, they sure had an exciting time together. Sweeney brings an
enchanting tale of love and lust so powerful that it spans across the realms of
Earth and Hell.
