Succubus in the City by Nina Harper

Stylish women sipping cocktails at the latest it restaurant, wearing the latest designer work, shoes, and carrying the right bags, complaining about the quality of available men while working their glamourous jobs at fashion magazines and investment firms.

Sounds like a scene from Sex in the City?

That is the life that Lily inhabits along with her best gal pals, Sybil, Desi, and Eros. There's just one big difference - she's also a succubus, and all of her friends work for the woman downstairs, nicknamed "Martha" in Nina Harper's new book, "Succubus in the City."

After centuries of serving up all the bad boys, cheating husbands, and chauvinist pigs to their just desserts, Lily's getting tired of it all. She just wants a man of her own - someone to cuddle her after a long day, someone who sees her without makeup and in sweatpants, someone to actually DATE and love. But it's hard enough for a single woman in New York to find a quality man, let alone a single woman who serves the forces of darkness. Yet Lily thinks she's got a prospect in Nathan Coleman, a private investigator with a love of ancient languages. Her friends and boss keep warning her to tread carefully, but Lily, with an out of her contract in sight (true love really can save her soul) she's persuing Nathan while trying to fill her quota for the month and outwit a group called the Burning Men that want to put a stop to she and her friends - forever.

A wicked, devilish delight, this book is sure to please fashionistas and dark fantasy readers alike.
