Or will she be lost to the lures of roller derby, and the blonde temptress April, forever?Axel Howerton says "Red Tash delivers again with this tale of rockin', rollin' and full metal fantasy! I love this damn book."Mercedes Yardley: "This book has it all. Prophecies. Destinies. Royalty, trust, revenge. Sex, drugs, and rock and roll are doused in humor and lit ablaze with quirky snark. I blew through this book incredibly fast because I couldn’t put it down. If you want a solid, fun read, then pick up Red Tash’s Troll or Derby." Braine of TalkingSupe.com Book Reviews says: "Roller Deb is the perfect amalgam of Heather Graham (Boogey Nights) and Ellen Page (Whip It), she's a sexy ass-kicking heroine and I can't help but adore the chick! All that unleashed power is both scary and fascinating, it feels like staring into the sun. And Harlow, with his swoon-worthy name, is the kind of troll you want to fall in love with (I was actually imaging them to be Julianne Hough and Diego Boneta in Rock of Ages with Tom Cruise as the villain McJagger). Overall the story is crazy exciting and so fast paced you'll just keep on flipping the pages."

    His neighbor Cady accidentally comes between the hunter and his quarry, a demon, stalking women in San Francisco. This isn't the scaly, fire and brimstone type demon, but the seductive, stalker type that can jump into any body, feeding off of fear or sexual energy. He can tap into your psyche to become the perfect man - and he's set his sights on Cady. Gutsy, vivacious (if a little pushy) heroine with more curiosity than sense sometimes - check. Sexy demon who can seduce with a single look - check. Secretive neighbor who pushes Cady away with one hand while pulling her into his mess with the other - check. Put together, creates a recipe for one thrilling read. I especially enjoyed Ethan's brand of polite rejection and his sometimes bewildered responses when Cady insinuates herself into his life. Her ties to the demon were an interesting twist as well, and I can't help but wonder what lies in store for them in the future.Product DescriptionCady Garrett can't help but be shaken when next door neighbor, Ethan, shows up in the nick of time to save her from a ruthless killer, spouting mumbo jumbo.

Nursing him back to health, Cady is drawn into a world of half truths and mysteries, where shadows hide more than the seedy underbelly of San Francisco's Tenderloin district. She has become the obsession of a darker power, and no one, not even Ethan, can keep her safe from his twisted desires.
