Product Description:
In her acclaimed Women of the Otherworld series, Kelley Armstrong has created a scintillating realm where the supernatural and the human coexist on the edge of darkness, romance, and eternity. Now Armstrong tells the captivating tale of a young woman with an insatiable lust for danger. She can’t help it. It’s in her blood.
Tabloid reporter Hope Adams appears to live the life of an ordinary working girl. But in addition to possessing the beauty of a Bollywood princess, Hope has other unique traits. For she is a half demon—a human fathered by a demon. And she’s inherited a hunger for chaos. Naturally, when she’s chosen by a very dangerous group for a very dangerous mission that will take her through Miami’s hot spots, she jumps at the chance. But Hope is a little too good at this job. And soon she’s in a little too deep. To save herself, she’ll have to unleash her most primal instincts—and open herself, mind and body, to everything she most fears . . . and desires.

Kelley Armstrong is an amazing author and this book just keeps up with the trend. Hope Adams is half Chaos Demon. She feeds on and revels in Chaos vibes.

Rating: - Okay but not her best
While I've enjoyed all of the books in this series, I found Personal Demon to be below my expectations. The biggest detraction for this edition of the Women of the Otherworld series is that it employs multiple first person sections, alternating between the perspective of Hope and Lucas. The main thrust spends time with internal dialogue of Hope Adams with minor points spend in Lucas's thoughts. If this was a setup for a future novel exploring Lucas's anticipated ascension as his father's heir, ... Read More

Rating: - Not my favorite
I'm a Kelley Armstrong fan, and although I have read (and in this case listened) to many of her books, she has written a few duds, and this one is one of them. My biggest issue with this story was that Hope was just boring. For someone with the moniker 'Lucifer's daughter' she's as interesting as vanilla pudding. I just did not care about her or her 'chaos sense' power, her relationship with Karl or Jazz or the demons and the cabal.
Hope shows little remorse and little humanity in her ... Read More
