Demon Called
Jewel Killian - 2018
But I’m just a fake psychic with a bad childhood and a stack of past due bills. Five realms hang in the balance, three races whose lives depend on magic, and one corrupt king hoarding it all for himself. My role? Oh, just fixing it. Easy, right? But a handful of sexy realm leaders insist I’m the human-born with demon blood—each vying for attention, each one’s touch drawing something strange and blissful from me. Sweet, attentive Callum, pragmatic and commanding Sorin, dark and intuitive Verrill, and icy, collected Jadzeera. Each one has something to teach me—about magic and about myself. The longer I stay in these hell realms the closer I grow to each realm leader, the more my power grows and the more I realize I cannot simply have one realm leader. I need them all by my side—and in my bed—to bring the realms back together. Demon Called is a fast-burn RH with an LGBTQ+ female lead. This fun, sexy ride is packed full of seductive demons, a smart heroine, a wisecracking best friend, and a teleporting cat.
