A Cozy Halloween Romance

De: Taylor Fox

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

Never drink and summon a demon…

My cousin is getting married.
To my ex. Who cheated on me with her.
And the whole family insists I must go.
I can’t show up single. I need a date, even if it’s a fake one.

The spell was supposed to bring me love. Not a devil.
Not the literal King of the Underworld.
Now, I’ve accidentally bound ourselves, so there’s no way out of this.
The Demon King will have to be my pretend boyfriend.

Just one problem: no one’s ever made me feel the way he does.
The lines blur until they disappear.
He’s a monster and we were supposed to be fake.
Then why does it feel so real?

Decent story, flat AI Reader

The story isn’t bad - it’s a fairly formulaic romance with a bit of a twist. I listened to the whole thing and don’t regret it.

It is unfortunate that it was read by AI. The reader is a bit flat, and that is especially jarring when the story gets steamy. Still, if you are interested in how late 20s woman falls in love with the kind of hell (And you don’t want to watch Lucifer), this is a good way to go.
