It is the 3rd installment in the Nikki Styx series. Nikki experienced a near death experience, went to the light and returned..with a gift. She can now see dead people. Over the last 2 books she has met the devil, found a long lost and unknown twin sister and hooked up with the hot er doctor that brought her back to life.
In this book the devil, Sammy, is back to cause trouble again. He has opened a shop accross from her's in Five Points. An angry anorexic ghost, a child molesting television evangelist and a visit from her cross dressing grandmother/father and her spell casting garden club make for a fast paced and fun story.
I enjoyed the book - I really like the character Nikki Styx. She really doesn't want this 'gift' she has been given and isn't into the whole new age/psychic or wiccan stuff. She has a unique style and view of the world. And her best friend Evan is a hoot.
I would totally recommend it for a quick, light, paranormal read. Although if you are looking for something heavy on the romance, this wouldn't be the one for you. Although Nikki and her doctor are sweet and truly care about each other - the point of the story isn't really about their relationship or chemistry. Tho she does write Sammy well. She manages to give the devil a human and sexy aspect that even I, knowing that bedding down with a demon is never a good thing, couldn't help but wonder if maybe it would be worth it....
