Bitten By Books This is a fresh twist on Urban Fantasy and I am very curious to see where Muse will end up. Likable characters, fantastic pacing and flow, a solid paranormal foundation, and one hell of an ending make Beyond the Veil a truly enjoyable read. Smexy Books From page one I was intrigued and as I turned the final page I still wanted more. From the Author The Veil Series has been described as gritty urban fantasy with an intriguing hint of romance. I'd describe it as one hell-of-a ride. Our heroine, Muse, is deeply flawed, and not just because she's half demon. She makes mistakes, screws up more often than not, and struggles to manage her half demon nature. Her problems are amplified by her ex-lover - an overbearing Prince of Hell, and a demon-slayer with his own motives. The Veil Series is a wild ride into a world where demons inhabit Boston. There will be battles and blood, romance and betrayal. I invite you to buckle up and enjoy the journey (including the downs as well as ups). Do demons get happy endings?
