And even knowing that, I can’t stay away, until my past threatens to drag her into my nightmare.

I loved Demon You Love!!! Anton and Piper’s story was simply everything!! Their book brought out all the feels!! L.A. Fiore’s writing just keeps getting better!! I was hooked from the beginning of the book and didn’t want to put my kindle down!
I’ve been anxiously waiting for Demon You Love (Lost Boys Book 2) and it was excellent! The storyline is all consuming with a great combination of suspense, angst and romance.
Life has not always been kind to Anton as he was abandoned as a baby and his childhood was simply awful. No person should have endured the things that he did however, his ability to rise up and make a better life for himself was amazing. He’s now a rich, successful business owner who is selfless, kind and helps others in need. Piper is the perfect soulmate for him. She’s an aspiring ballerina with a warm and tender heart who is also selfless in every way. Their attraction to each other was immediate and reading how their relationship developed was promising and hopeful. Piper is the light to Anton’s dark and the angel to his demon. They truly complete each other. And their connection and sexual chemistry is on point. Their sexy times are thigh clenchingly good and beyond explosive. I just couldn’t get enough of these two.
I’m really happy that Damian and Thea (from Devil You Know) made appearances and I can’t wait to get my hands on Cam’s Book. Demon You Love is a beautiful and touching romance that I highly recommend.
Devil You Know, the first book in the Lost Boys series, by L.A. Fiore is one of my top favorite reads from her so I was very excited to get my hands on the second book of the series, Demon You Love. I absolutely loved the characters in this story so much and just completely lost myself in their story.
Anton Scalene will captivate you and break your heart. His background was so heartbreaking. He was abandoned after his birth and he fought every day of his life to come out of the hell he was living. He has done things he can never change. Piper was a good person with a big heart and all she wanted was to follow her dreams. But things never work out as planned. When they meet, their world is about to be rocked.
Demon You Love by L..A. Fiore was an emotional and twisted ride and I loved every second of it. Anton and Piper’s story was all-consuming from start to finish. I loved their chemistry and connection so much. Anton was strong, determined and a total alpha. He could be scary, but also very caring for those he cared about. I loved this book and though it can be read as a standalone, you get more of the story if you read it in order.

Happy reading!
Good Lord, can I just say… there’s something so unique and beautiful about the way LA Fiore writes her stories. The way Fiore’s words flow seem to go directly into my heart and stay there. It could be the men LA Fiore creates. Anton is so broken. He is a man that was born into a very rough life. Yet, he’s an amazing man… he’s so incredibly caring and beautiful (inside and out). I’m so impressed with the way he turned out. A man with such strong morals… so protective of those he loves.
Piper is everything Anton has ever wanted. He’s always wanted someone to care for him as he cares for them. It’s never happened even though he has his self-made family and friends he can call on. He still isn’t satisfied, he’s still alone. Until Piper. I loved the way Anton thought of Piper… how he saw her. Piper saw Anton for the man he really was, not the man he tried to be. She saw his heart. There was never any fear… just trust. Fiore really captures that and those feelings are probably my favorite thing about this story. It feels so deeps, so strong and it’s all Fiore’s words.
Every time I read a Fiore story I think, this is her best work yet, and every time it is! Her writing seriously gets better every single time. I just love the deepness of the relationship and how the situations are complex. The Demon You Love covers so much but some of my favorite things… the suspense and friendship with so much chemistry and a deep love.
I received an ARC of this book with the hope that I would leave an Unbiased Opinion. I was not required to leave a review, positive or otherwise, and my opinions are just that… my opinions.
5 fantastic stars!! This is going straight to my favorites list, like of all time!!
This is book two of the “Lost Boys” series and can be read as a stand alone.
This is Anton and Pipers love story and boy is it a good one. I think Anton has taken over as my number one book boyfriend. Omg he is delicious, caring, protective, super sexy, a little dark and twisted and just perfect! I didn’t realize what a package he was in the first book. This book did him justice!! And Piper is the perfect yin to his yang! She is a beauty, smart, can’t cook for shit, caring, loving, positive and just a great woman!! They make the PERFECT couple.
This book had so much going for it. I was obsessed. Like read right through it! It’s hard to find a book that makes me this way. I have read soooo many books and this one did it. It was sexy, fun, sad, dark, twisted, loving, and so fucking great!! I literally am in love with all of these characters!!
This is a must read!!
**I received this book as an ARC and in return gave my honest review**
***5 ‘What If’ Stars***
What a way to start things off!
I mean, after reading the blurb I had no doubt that things would be all kinds of gritty and emotional, but whoa…that definitely hooked me, but what followed was definitely a pleasant surprise. This baby packs a punch on all levels ~ it’s sweet, smexy, funny and filled with a lot of heart that hit all the buttons and had me devouring this baby in no time and wanting more when there were no more words to read.
I adored Anton and Piper. Anton is a scary alpha AF SOB. He’s highly intelligent and lives in a world of blurred lines, but he is loyal to those that are loyal to him and though many do not get to see his heart, that heart is much more golden, and a lot less black, than most ~ even Anton himself ~ could ever imagine. Piper is a really good person, and I know that isn’t an exciting way to describe someone, but it’s the truth. She gives more of herself than she gets in return and yet she isn’t a doormat by any means. She simply tries to always do the right thing, even if it isn’t right for her. She’s hard working, conscientious, compassionate and owns everything that she is.
Anton and Piper’s journey to their HEA was definitely an interesting and enjoyable one. Their first collision was all kinds of meet cute goodness and I loved how fate kept pushing them towards each other in such a way that neither could dispute that something was there. I enjoyed how they gave into the attraction between them, admitting that things were happening quickly and just rolling with it because, regardless, they were both on the same page. The smexy was hot and their bantering a lot of fun. The big bump in their road wasn’t difficult to understand and I loved how everything ended up working out for them.
This was a great read, not that I’m all that surprised considering who the author is and she doesn’t disappoint. The writing is engaging, the pacing was good and I enjoyed the dual first person POV’s. There are triggers in this one, but I like how she balanced the dark with the light and the dark was a necessity, but done in such a way that was not gratuitous. And then there are the supporting cast of characters. Catching up with Damien, Thea, Edie and Rosalie was a lot of fun, as well as Cam, Lucien and Darcy. I loved Laney and Nina, and grew to like Candice, but it’s Razor who definitely peaks my interest. But from how things were left, it looks like Cam may be the lead in the next book, something I’m not unhappy about in any way, and I cannot wait to see what that book will bring!

The wait for Anton and his story may have been long, but LA (Liz) did that wait justice by giving us another amazing story!! Anton had it rough from the time he was born, until he decided to make something of himself, and boy did he!! Anton meets Piper when he is out for a piece of pie with Thea, and every time they run into each other the connection between them builds, they are perfect for each other, and they deserve the happiness they bring to each other. I’ve love every book from LA so far, and can not wait to see what ride she takes us on next!!
5 Star, All Because of Pie, Review
Demon You Love is a book that has it all. Romance, suspense, laughter, sadness, and some yummy sexy times! I love the chemistry between Piper and Anton. Their love was inevitable. The struggles they go through individually will have you fuming with anger while crushing your heart. I love their strength, especially as a power couple. They have each other’s backs, no matter what!
I also love reading more about the side characters that were in the previous book. They are all incredible and I love reading more about their lives.
Here is one of my favorite quotes from the book….
“She’d just seen the demon under the gentleman, and she still looked at me with love in her eyes”
Unconditional love for Piper and Anton!
The way the book ended was perfect! Are we getting more from this story?! I hope so because it looks like Anton, Damien, Cam and the rest of the crew aren’t finished yet!!!!
Wow!! The depravity that crawled from the first pages of this story blew me away. It was more than I was expecting right off the bat. LA Fiore sure knew how to grab my attention from the start. Demon You Love is beautifully sweet with just that hint of darkness. After all you can’t appreciate the light without the dark.
Despite growing up in the in the murky bowels of hell, Anton had a kindness and a giving nature that you would not expect. Don’t make the mistake that if called upon, that malevolent darkness would be brought to the forefront in a flash. Considering all this, it did not define the type of man he is.
Piper is light and goodness. Her personal situation is not what should be for a young woman, but she always makes the best of her situation. When Anton and her come across each other in more than one encounter, things start to happen and his generosity and kindness shine through.
~She pulled me from the shadows, took my hand and walked with me into the light.~
4* What If Stars!!

And she did it again!!! L.A. Fiore gave us another FANTASTIC book!! Anton might have taken awhile to get to us, but he was sooooo worth the wait!!! I have been a fan of L.A. Fiore since I read the Beautifully Damaged series and I will continue to read her books.
Demon You Love is a MUST READ!!! This book is what a 5 star read should be. It had everything I look for when picking up an L.A. Fiore book. My heart and emotions were all over the place, but when all was said and done, my heart was full and I had a smile on my face 🙂
Demon You Love is the second book in the Lost Boys series by L.A. Fiore. This is a standalone, but not really. I would definitely recommend reading Devil You Know (Book 1) before reading this book. This book is about another couple but there are some things in the storyline that kind of carry over into this story. Plus reading this series in order will give you a better understanding of all the characters in this world.
This story will sweep you off your feet, you won’t be able to read it fast enough. I was so captivated with this story and I felt like I was a part of these characters lives. I felt what they were feeling. That is a testament to this authors writing skill and ability. I thought the flow and pace of this story was perfect!! I was immediately drawn into this story from the first page and I didn’t want to put the book down even after the last page.
This book was truly a great read and I honestly don’t think my review can do it justice. As always her writing was flawless and effortless. This story is told from Dual POV. I absolutely LOVED both Piper and Anton’s characters. I truly felt they were meant for each other.
I won’t be talking about this storyline in this book, because I think you need to experience the love story between Piper and Anton for yourself, but also I don’t want to spoil any of the mystery and intrigue that this book is full of.
I loved all the characters we met in this story. But I was so glad we got to see more of Damian and Thea. I am truly excited to see where she takes this series and I am hoping that Cam will be the next character we will get a story for.
As with the first book, I loved that she gave us some cameo’s from her other books. They happened to be from my favorite book of this authors so it was so cool to see them.
If you are a fan of L.A. Fiore’s, you don’t want to miss this book. If you are a fan of a book that will tap every one of your emotions and is filled with mystery and suspense and a love story that is between two broken people, who have way more in common than they realize…..then you NEED to read this book!!!! This is one for my 2019 Best Reads list!!!
“My demons molded me; her innocence molded her.”
Demon You Love, the second book in the Lost Boys series by L.A. Fiore, is riveting, poignantly written, and beautifully composed. Author L.A. Fiore delivers captivating characters, suspense, and to die for romance. Expect heart clenching details, jaw dropping moments, and an on the edge of your seat read.
“You make me lose my breath when you’re around. I’ve never felt that before.”
The love between Anton and his dancer, Piper, is intense, unexpected, and all consuming. I couldn’t help but love Anton from the start. He’s dragged himself from the depths of Hell, climbed his way to the top, and knows what it is just to survive. Piper is inherently good, altruistic even, and enchants Anton with her innocence and beauty. While he’s dark and enigmatic, she’s light and pure. The best things in life never come for free, and it doesn’t seem Anton is done paying his dues. They say revenge is a dish best served cold – can Anton and Piper weather the chill or will his past burn their world to the ground?
A truly enjoyable book, Demon You Love will have you laughing, in suspense, and may even bring you to tears. With a little bit for everyone, this book is a must read for all lovers of romance. Find out for yourself and one-click Demon You Love today! Enjoy xo.
