Resumen del Editor

A daemon is offering me the name of my parents’ killer, for a price.

I’ve spent my life hunting the daemon who killed my parents. I swore long ago to do anything necessary, including summoning the deadly creatures to hunt for clues, even knowing I walked a razor’s edge every time. Any one of them might turn on me and kill me, too.

When Azimuth, a sweet-talking daemon with ice-blue eyes and a voice like butter, shows up dangling the knowledge I seek in return for a high-risk job, I feel compelled to accept his offer. Sure, I’m wary of the helpful daemon, but the prize is too tempting to pass up. So what if my pulse races when he touches me or I can’t stop thinking about how his lips will feel on my skin?

I’m embarrassed that I can't seem to keep myself from dwelling on forbidden fantasies starring Azimuth. Remembering that all daemons are my enemy and that nothing’s going to get in my way helps me. Nothing, including my forbidden attraction to an enemy. An enemy I can’t trust. Won’t trust.

But when the not-so-simple job goes sideways, I’m trapped. Bound to the very creature I despise.

Now I need to decide how much of my body, or my heart, I’m willing to risk for vengeance.

This title was previously published as The Daemon Whisperer.

If you like paranormal romance filled with demons, demi-gods, and fae with mysteries; complex world-building; and unique twists, you’ll love the Caught Between Worlds series.

Perfect for fans of BR Kingsolver, Lily Archer, Michael Anderle, Ilona Andrews, C.N. Crawford, Kelly St. Clare, Leia Stone, Jaymin Eve, K. M. Shea, Martha Carr, Willow Winters, Annette Marie, Deborah Wilde, and KF Breene.

Very well done

The narrators really do a fantastic job on this story and it is so fun to listen to but has fantastic and fun characters

More please!

Paranormal romance has quickly become one of my top-favorite genres! And this book was a great one! My only complaint is that there doesn’t seem to be anymore to this series and I was left wanting more! Meri is a super like-able character and she has some great chemistry with some other characters in the story!

Need more now!

Candice is a new author to me and I need the next book now! Azimuth and Meri's was fantastic and the plot and characters kept me hooked. Looking forward to more books by Candice.

interesting

interesting story that draws you in with all the twists and turns. This is a new author to me and I will be looking forward to reading more from this author.

4.5 star listen

4.5 star read
I really liked this first book! I listened via audiobook and the narration was fabulous!
I will be waiting patiently for book two to come out on audio.

World building is great
Hea? Hfn at this point. I liked the romance aspect and bought into the chemistry.
Smut level is about 2.5/5 with I believe 2 semi detailed sex scenes.

Gifted audio in exchange for an honest review

Impulse buy that was totally worth it

Slow start, but picked up. Loved the new take on summoning. I would love to read more of her books.

Pretty fun ...

This was a really interesting demon-hunter type of read, with a likable FMC, lots of action and plenty of intrigue.

I like this author’s spin on demons and I like the world. I feel I’ve seen enough that I don’t need to read on into the series, and it was a bit slow-paced for me, but I’d explore more from this author.

3.5 stars.

Smoke and Daemons

Candice Bundy is a new author to me. This is the first book in the Caught Between Worlds series. I really enjoyed this book. I am very interested to see where Meri will end up. Marina Barrett and Michael Norman Johnson did a great job narrating.

Paranormal Demon Romance

Smoke and Daemons by Candice Bundy is a paranormal demon romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Marina Barrett and Michael Norman Johnson. This is the first book in the Caught Between Worlds series.

This is the first book of Candice's that I have read and it won't be my last. I was pulled in from the first chapter and couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next. I liked that this book focused more on the daemon hunting and had the relationship between Meri and Azimuth building along the way.

The book ends on a cliffhanger which wasn't a surprise since it is the first book in the series. I can't wait for the next book to be announced.

Marina and Michael did a great job on the narration. They both really know how to bring a story to life. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.

I would recommend this book if you like paranormal romances, fantasy romance, or supernatural suspense.

What A Romp!

I have to say this book kept me guessing from beginning to end and had more twists than a Celtic knot. The story was unique and innovative with enough spice to keep it enthralling but not overdoing the sex. I enjoyed the narration, although keeping it to one voice may have been better in this case, as the two actors had different accents for the same characters. That is the one small flaw in an otherwise gem of an audiobook. I highly recommend to anyone that enjoys paranormal romances and urban fantasy.
