Kalen – the dark demon underlord who won’t stop at anything to get what – or who – he wants.Circe – the beautiful, innocent Valkyrie masquerading as a human supermodel.Kalen is out for blood. The blood of a powerful demon who’s betrayed him. But he needs a Valkyrie’s powers to help him find this soon-to-be-dead demon. He’ll do whatever it takes to make that happen – even if it means manipulating … if it means manipulating and lying to the Valkyrie he fell instantly in lust with during her runway debut.
Circe knows she should stay away from the dark demon… but knowing and actually doing are two completely different things. After all, he’s so damn sweet, and protective of her. How could he possibly hurt her?
Kalen’s betting he’ll have time to break the news of who he really is – and how he’s using her, before she finds out about him some other way.
But he’s wrong.
Now, heartbroken and furious, Circe vows never to let him in again – to her heart, or her bed.

Absolutely LOVE this well written series from Jacey Ward! Sizzling hot and steamy read with HEA. World and characters very well developed. I can’t wait to see what happens next in this fabulous world.

First let me state, I received an Advance Reader Copy, (ARC), but this in no way influences my review. I always leave an honest review.
Wow!!! When I received a call from Ms. Ward that she needed help with reviewing her story, I jumped at the chance. She’s a gr8 author and I truly enjoy her stories, and this one falls right into that category. Circe, (pronounced ker-key), is a Valkyrie and a famous model. Kalen is a demon and leader in the underworld, but he keeps it secret from Circe. They bump into each other at a theater and things fly from there. So much hot sex, and much misunderstanding. I recommend this read. 5 Thumbs up
Another Great one for Jacey Ward
These demon novels are so full of great characters and action. The characters do carry over from previous books. This one follows Circe Lancaster who is a good friend of the main character in the previous book DEMON TAKES ALL. In that one Arya met Dante who is a Prince and a Demon. So in this story Circe who is a Valkyrie and a fashion model meets Kalen Conner who is a demon who is ruler of the Corpus. The Corpus is a Deviant Mafia in the Underworld. Deviants are anyone not human. So in these stories that is trolls, vampires, fae, valkyries, demons and sorceress. When Kalens father returned to purgatory he bequeathed him a clan of trolls. So he has one servant troll named Anderly who calls him sire and dotes on his master Kalen. Then there is this vampire investor Evander who is searching for the evil demon Uvall and his sorceress for Kalen to capture. In the meantime they are searching for another valkyrie to help them as Circe found out who Kalen really is and she’s avoiding him and also having problems with her agent in the modeling world. The sec between them was intense. So much happens in this story. It does have a happy ending.

Great book. Wonderful characters. Circle was a supermodel and valerie, Kalen was the demon lord trying to catch a bounty. Who would of thought they were actually soulmates. Circle had skeletons in her closet that her agent was willing to expose. Kalen just wanted to catch the demon he was looking for and go home. They both helped each other out and found what they were both missing.

Loved the book. Jacey Ward is a fantastic author the makes a story enjoyable. You never want to steal from the Mob and you sure don’t want to steal from the Demon Mob. This story follows Circe from the first book in the series. She and Kalen are searching from the same enemy, Uvall and he needs a Valkyrie to help with his search. His luck is with him when he spies Circe leaving a performance of Frozen. Sparks fly immediately, but Kalen has his secrets. Secrets that could destroy a relationship before it even starts. Join Kalen and Circe as they hunt, love and fight. Will Kalen’s secrets keep them apart? Will they be able to defeat their mutual enemy? I couldn’t put the book down until the end. It will grab your imagination. I love this new world of Deviants want to read more.

I loved this book!! This is the second book in the series. I highly recommend it. You won’t be disappointed.
Another great book. I really enjoyed this second paranormal book by Mrs. Ward. It really is a great stand-alone book, so no need to worry about if you have read the previous book or not. This is just as great as the first one was.

He is a dark demon and he always gets what he wants and who he wants if it means using someone he will do it. He will use her and hope to tell her about it all soon. She finds out and she wants nothing to do with him. What happened? Who will win out? See what will happen

This one grabbed my attention from the first page and I couldn’t put it down. It was a lot of fun to read! It was different from most of the other books I have read, even the ones that have Demons and Gods. It moves at a fast pace, has a lot of heat, and the story line is engaging. I am looking forward to reading more of this authors books.
Circe is a Valkyrie, an immortal who also has to make a living. Kellan is the leader of the Corpus, the demon mafia, and he’s in New York chasing down a demon who has run out on him. When Kellan and Circe run into each other the attraction is immediate and irresistible. Kellan keeps his real identity secret and Circe has difficulties with her sadistic manager. Parts of the center of the book dragged but it picked back up when the runaway demon was located. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Secrets will out & the bigger the secret the worse the fallout when they come to light. I liked Kalen, he had his reasons for seeking revenge he was just a fool in continuing to lie to the woman he had fallen so hard for. He soon learns that revenge can sometimes come at too high a price. Can he get the wonderful Circe to forgive him? She was a wonderfully well-crafted character and was a strong woman & my heart was so sore for her when she found out about Kalen’s deception.
A quick yet highly entertaining romantic adventure filled with danger, deception, desire and undeniable passion… could not put it down.
Circe and Kalen are a thrilling and emotionally charged couple that had me hooked from the beginning…. loved the witty banter, heart pounding danger and action packed adventure.
I really enjoyed this story. I had the disadvantage of not reading the first in the series, but I don’t think it effected my enjoyment or understanding of this book. Kalen and Circe were great characters, and their chemistry and relationship was intense. This book was full of suspense, action, adventure, and romance, and was a very interesting, thrilling ride. I look forward to reading more about this world of Deviants and learning more about them.

Demons Strike Back is an amazing story of between a Valkyrie and a demon underlord.
This is a 2nd book of the series with references of some of the characters from the 1st book but can be read as a stand a lone. Circe is a Valkyrie disguised as a human supermodel and Kalen is an demon underlord who’s out for revenge, betrayed by another powerful demon. Kalen is out to destroy this demon, but need a Valkyrie to help him.
Kalen is determine to do what it takes to take out this demon, even if it means falling in love with the Valkyrie. There’s instant attraction between the two! The story has lots of twist turns, action, fast pace and betrayal. A definite must read! I really enjoyed reading this book!
