50% boobs. 50% sarcasm. 100% new breed of hunter. After a bumpy start as the only female demon hunter in the top secret Brotherhood of David, Nava heads to Prague for her first undercover mission: unmasking a demon movie star. She’d be all kinds of thrilled if it weren’t for the fact that her fellow hunter-with-benefits, Rohan, has reclaimed his rock star status and assigned Nava the role of … fact that her fellow hunter-with-benefits, Rohan, has reclaimed his rock star status and assigned Nava the role of groupie.
Rejecting her “be a good girl and follow orders” directive, Nava unleashes an alter ego guaranteed to hook their celebrity target and drive Rohan crazy.
No downside-until she finds herself up against Rohan’s past, the Brotherhood’s antiquated thinking, and her own identity issues, turning her personal life into a bomb that could blow up the entire operation.
Sparkly and deadly; it’s a plan.

The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Sting #2 – Babyslay vs. psycho spawns. I missed the first book, how sad! Not reading book one did not take anything away from book two. She’s an abrasive, smart mouth with an over-sex-drive, which is OK, because she can kick butt. I love the way Rohan trains her as she’s fighting for her life. Ms. Wilde is a wonderful author: her colorful descriptions; the humor; a reasonable amount of vulgar language. It’s true that not all real people use vl, much less curse. The action, fast pace, humorous plot along with the good descriptions holds the reader in a tight grip. After the first sex scene, the story kicked into overdrive. There’s sex, but don’t let that stop you from reading this entertaining book. All sex scenes boremeoutofmyeverlovingmind, I’m not a prude. Paperback. 5*
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Need #3- More Babyslay. More of the well written series, with the humor, the colorful descriptions and twisting plot that makes Need almost as interesting as Sting. The action and romances continue and it’s hard to put the book down. The vulgar language is kept to a reasonable level and the sex scenes still boremetodeath (not just this author’s, all authors). I contacted the author to review this book after reading Sting. 5*
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Crave #4 – Another well written, action-packed, fast-paced, intrigue filled book. This must the best so far with the well thought out plot of nonstop twists and turns and surprises that keeps the reader glued to the pages. The characters show growth and even the minor characters have enough to them to keep the reader interested. The vulgar language is actually toned down quite a bit and there’s plenty of graphic sex – skip them if GS is not your cuppa, I find all GS boring. While not a cliffhanger, there’s more coming. Ms. Wilde does an excellent job with her descriptions. 4*
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Fall #5 – I did have a problem with the chapters about the Pride parade. I’m not sure if I was getting a lecture or Pride forced down my throat, but I got bored quick with much of the information that didn’t matter; clothing, repetition, etc. (You don’t know me so don’t think I dislike gays; boring is boring regardless of subject matter.) I love this series but this book didn’t have the magic like the previous books did. Maybe it was too much unimportant information (or filler is the impression I sometimes received) and not the usual fast paced intrigue that this series has in bunches. The book is still good but I had to work at reading it over several days; either too wordy or sometimes I was just confused. I usually finish one of Ms. Wilde’s book in one day; you can’t put them down, they’re so entertaining and addicting. Still, I’m looking forward to the next book. 4*
To all authors: I find pages of “praise” in any book annoying when I’d rather see the list of books by an author and then the story. I don’t give a rat’s toenail about other people’s opinions and I dislike hunting for information and the start of the story; plus everyone has a smartphone that they can look up reviews. In the days of paperbacks, I wouldn’t buy a book because of the pages of reviews unless it was one of my authors and then I didn’t open the book till I got home.
The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Sting is book two in the Nava Katz series by Deborah Wilde. This series needs to be read in order.
I had a fun time reading book 2. Their is so much snark, sexual tension, and action.
Nava’s on her first mission as a demon-hunter. She’s trying so hard to find her feet in the world as a demon-hunter in an organization that has been only male up until now. Her relationship with Rohan (the friends with benefits guy) is changing and who knows where it will go. Rohan and Nave’s relationship is tested on this mission with Rohan’s childhood friend and previous love showing up and Nava’s own insecurities and stubbornness. All this adds up to is an emotional up and down journey that she and us go on. Her friendship with Drio is also growing and we see Ari’s story get some closure.
So many fun and emotional things pop up in The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Sting. It’s fast-paced, action-packed, with twists and an ending that will make you want to pick up the next book to find out what happens next.
