Review:
Dare Me is book one in the new Demonology Series. Yes, demons, ancient evil, and all that implies. This is a story of what happens when a young woman willingly involves herself with a demon. This is my first book by Felicity Brandon, it won’t be the last time I read one of her books! Raif is an upper demon who is obsessed with Sara as he keeps watch over as he enjoys her pain and heartaches. Sara is a starving artist with as many problems as everyone else in the world. I quickly found myself at the end of this story and still wanting to read more. I would highly recommend reading it.
Dare Me: A Paranormal Demon Romance but Felicity Brandon is the first book in the Demonology series. This book is a dark book that will have you utterly captivated from the start.
I loved the connection between Raif and Sara, you could feel it in every page. It was such an intense relationship that you were instantly drawn into it. I found myself glued to the pages, reading quicker and quicker as I tried to find out what was going to happen.
This is first book that I have read by this author and I really loved the intense and gritty feel to it. It isn’t something I expected which made it all the more exciting. The book was really well developed and I loved the way the author created the story. This is was fantastic book and one I would highly recommend.
Dare Me (The Demonology Series Book One) is my first Felicity Brandon book. She wonderfully unites together with the two sides most people tend to battle inside themselves. Finding good in the evil that confronts us, hoping there’s a redeemable quality to every person/soul/entity. And being drawn towards the dark, the “bad boy” persona or rather a demon in this scenario. When you realize you’ve sold your soul at your crossroads, do you fight it to the end or… do you lean into the curve?
Sara & Raif are sure to take you on the demonic ride of your life. Keep an eye for “friendly” family reunions…I hear just saying Beelzebub’s name aloud can conjure him to you!
I can’t wait for book two.
First off, I loooove Felicity Brandon’s writing, her characters & plots. She has the marvelous ability & deft skill at fleshing out & detailing her characters so the reader feels they know them intimately yet nothing ever seems overdone because we NEED to know more, we CRAVE to know more. She pulls her readers deep into the plot, so we MUST know what happens next & more importantly what will ULTIMATELY happen. But Ms. Brandon loves to torture her reader, her plot twists & turns & folds back & darts ahead, dragging the enthralled reader excitedly along the entire journey.
‘Dare Me’ ventures into a dark realm of demons, lust, possessiveness & heart’s desires & begs the ages old question: Would you sell your soul for your heart’s desire?
Raif (demon) has his evil lust-filled self focused entirely on an emotionally exhausted, depressed, desperate lovely artist named Sara (heroine). Alone, isolated, destitute, starving & now lacking her artistic creativity, Sara is at the end of her rope. And after following Sara for years unseen, unknown, Raif gleefully realizes his ‘little fawn’ is ripe for coercing, for enticing, for enthralling, for taking: mentally, emotionally, & physically.
And since this is a Felicity Brandon book, the taking of all three is VERY VERY HOT, intense & carnal.
But Raif is immortal evil. Beautiful, charming, cunning. But he’s also powerful, cruel extremely dominant & controlling. He imparts fantastic pleasure but also delivers erotic pain.
And Sara is a mortal human. Fragile, trusting, kind, submissive. But finds herself a slave to her mesmerized fascination for Raif as well as their combined lusts.
And in Hell, its Ruler & Princes have their own plans, plots, loyalties, desires . . . .
Will Sara be able to survive the attentions of Raif & his brethren?
What end goal does Raif have planned for his ‘little fawn’?
Does Sara truly grasp her situation?
The chessboard has been set up, the pieces arranged & sides chosen.
Let the game begin . . . .
Dancing with the……
Raif and Sara story is dark, delicious, twisted, sensual, intriguing, tempting and has manipulation, illusion, demons and human foilables.
Well written, morally ambiguous, characters that will challenge your thoughts and perceptions and a royally damn good read!!
Just wow what a fabulous on the edge story, I now love demons and Raif was memorizing and even though he was meant to be bad he did so much for Sara as she lived in complete misery art being her only salvation and he is determined to have her and make a deal.
This was dark and heated up fast and I loved every word just wow what a fantastic book with writing to perfection that you won’t soon forget.
I am totally enthralled by Felicity Brandon’s new Demonology Series. Book one Dare Me is such a unique twist on a romance story. I was captivated by the storyline and the characters. Sara (human) is a struggling artist who has lost her muse after a terrible breakup and Raif (demon) is drawn to her like no other in his lifetime. He will inspire her to paint again and together they find a love in each other that they have been missing.
This dark emotinal story about Raif and ’his mortal’ Sara. His or his, he wants her to give her to him of her free will.
I’ve read a lot of Felicity Brandon books and I’m very imressed that she can find new angles and combination of characters, after so many stories. There’s always a hidden side…
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book
Felicity Brandon does dark and steamy so very well, and this is definitely dark and steamy. I really enjoyed it, and I’m looking forward to the second book in this series, because I want to see what happens to that dude.
Sara is, well, I want to say that she is weak, but she really isn’t. She just seems to be that way in the beginning, but you have to look more at her to see what she’s really like.
Raif is really interesting. I thought that his journey was rather fascinating.
I enjoyed this book. It is a fast paced story that is full of action with demons and spirited heroines. This is a well written story that has characters I had no problem connecting with. They made the story come alive and made it easy to read as they were supportive of each other. They brought twists and turns that left me turning pages fast just waiting to see what will happen next. This is a story about a demon that is fixed on a mortal. He is determined to make her his no matter the cost. But at what cost? I enjoyed their chemistry, they made the story for me. I highly recommend this book.
I loved this. So very different from what I have read of Ms. Brandon’s other books but still written with her deviant twist. Demons, the underworld, nightmares come to life. Reading this sends shivers down your spine, which are not all bad. I can’t wait to read more in this series.
I read and reviewed a copy of this book.
Wow. I don’t know where to start. This book is a paranormal book since the main character is a demon but I will say that it’s not overly paranormal. There are a few scenes were he is in hell and his demonic form otherwise he is described as looking human and can perform magic. I personally like this kind of paranormal as I find it easy to imagine and follow along with so. The other main character is a human so the book is all about their relationship and how she manages with the fact that he’s a demon. I really liked it and it heated up fast! I will say if you don’t want a cliffhanger don’t read the epilogue as it has nothing to do with Raif and Sara but rather introduces who I’m assuming will be the main characters in the next book. I actually wish Sara and Raif got their own epilogue but the ending was great regardless.
I think Ms. Brandon is one of the most diverse authors I read. So all her books do have similarities…. They are intense, dark (sometimes inky black), and pull at your emotions (the good, passionate, and sometimes ugly). But the topics are so different. And Dare Me, is no different. Raif is a demon who is determined to possess artist, Sara. And he’s a demon, so he can have what he wants, right? But I appreciate not only the way Ms. Brandon gives her characters such complex emotions (no simple instalove here), but also all of her moral ambiguity. There is a lot going on in this book! It will suck you in.
This is a Deeply Dark Demon Fantasy. Sara is plagued by loneliness, hunger, monetary destitution, fear and overall misery. In her opinion, art is her only redeeming talent, and even that is beginning to waver. What does a demon such as Raif see in this human? What intrigues him? What will he do to seduce her? Will she believe in the lure of Raif? Will she agree to his terms? Will she give up her soul? Will she be accepted by other demons?
There is so much angst, excitement, magic and allure in this story. You must read it for yourself to see the demons of hell and their erotic demands. Will the small mortal learn to accept and contend with their salacious commands?
This one felt like such an original take on demons. I liked Raif. He was willing to do anything to get and keep Sara. I loved how he interacted with Sara too. He planned on keeping her for himself but he also gave her a lot in return for being his. And I love how he helps her with her art and even her landlord. Paranormal romance is always a favorite of mine and this book was such a great new take on demons! There is plenty of the regular demon stuff in there too. But I think this author helped make it her own as well!
Hold on to your heart!!!! Dare Me by Felicity Brandon is a dark, eerie paranormal story about a Demon who has his sights on a mortal. Raif is an upper demon who is obsessed with Sara as he keeps watch over as he enjoys her pain and heartaches. But Raif now has other plans for her as he has come to terms that he wants her by his side in the underworld as she has bewitched him. Sara is a struggling painter who has lost everything, her ex-boyfriend, her mother and her muse to paint. Raif thrives on the suffering and struggles mortals go through as he uses them for his own benefit then they are discarded. In order to have Sara he now has to control her through mind control and his demonic powers to hide his real appearance.Now Sara finds that she maybe losing her mind when she is hearing voices and seeing things. In order to bring her to his side he will become her muse to start painting again so she can get paid for her work as well as the recognition she has been denied. But Raif will soon find out that he is walking a thin line when his Master Beelzebub summons him to return to hell as now a struggle will ensure in the underworld regarding the Guardians who are the bane of Satan and his minions. But Raif who is being chastised by his Master for making Sara his, is told he wants her also. Now these three will partake in an erotic menage full of powerplay scenarios that will bring out all of Sara’s desires that she has suppressed, but in order for her to have both Masters she has to renounce her faith. This story is full of dark, erotic moments as Sara resigns herself to the sacrifice she has made and accepts her fate with Raif. Now we are left wondering is someone trying to cause problems for them? Once again Felicity Brandon has taken her readers into another realm with Dare Me in this Demonology Series you will be left asking yourself is all of this for real? Can’t wait for the next book as we will learn what Lucien has in store for his mortal.
Wow! This PNR read had me fixated from the very first page! The plot was great and so well written which made it flow smoothly from page to page and the characters were created with such great detail and depth that the characters kept me totally transfixed as I turned each and every page until the very end!
A new book by Felicity Brandon. This one is a bit different since it is a PNR book, but it will steam up your screen in Felicity’s Brandon own style. I wouldn’t call it a dark book though, at least not this first book.
Sara is at a loss, she is vulnerable and lonely and things go from bad to worse until Raif. Raif makes her promises and can fulfill her darkest desires, but what will happen to Sara is she gives in?
You have to read to find out.
I don’t review every book I read. And this is because I read every day. So, I’m selective on who I review, and I only review books that impress me. With Felicity Brandon I find myself repeating praises, and I try to keep my reviews fresh and not redundant. It’s hard with her.
How many times, in how many ways, can I say her books are wonderful? The characters are well defined, her world building distinct and her plot seamless? But they are, and I can’t think of any other way to describe these books.
This one, Dare Me, is quite simply delicious in its originality, its carnality, and its daring. If I were of a more sensitive bent, I’d say it came close to crossing a line. Close but not overstepping said line. Not to mention that I’m not of a particularly sensitive bent. So there is that.
Dare Me is book one in the new Demonology Series. Yes, demons, ancient evil, and all that implies. This is a story of what happens when a young woman willingly involves herself with a demon. My, oh my, what that involvement entails. Whether it’s for good or ill will be up to the reader. I loved it, every dark, carnal minute of it. But then I enjoy dark romance and Felicity Brandon is one of the genre’s queens.
If you enjoy entering the shadows and playing with who or what resides there, this is the book for you. Highly recommended.
Wow! This was an awesome start to a know series. Love the connection Raif and Sara had and I’m so looking forward for more of this other characters we met here their story will definitely be amazing.
