Publisher's summary

Sweet evil, come deliver us.

Gabriel has spent the last decade trying to forget his best friend, the first boy he ever loved: Jacob. Ripped away from each other in the midst of a family tragedy, Gabriel grieved for Jacob alone, surviving in their small religious town before finally breaking free to attend college, where they found new friends and relationships to pursue. To Gabriel, Jacob became a distant memory.

Until one fateful Halloween night, when the two are reunited, and Gabriel couldn’t be happier. Now, as adults, they can find the comfort and love that they desired in their adolescence. However, it doesn’t take long for Gabriel to realize that time apart has changed Jacob. The once confident and assured boy has grown into an isolated and obsessive adult. And the more Gabriel discovers about the man he loves, the clearer the danger becomes. 

When Jacob reveals to Gabriel his life’s work - his studies into the occult, demonic practices, and his ultimate desire to summon and communicate with Paimon, a King of Hell - Gabriel finds himself dragged into a world that they never asked to be a part of. But the further Gabriel goes, the more they realize that the demonic king is not the true threat and that evil has been beside them all along....

A twisted, supernatural thriller from the acclaimed and best-selling writer Mason Deaver about a love darkened by trauma and turned wicked by obsession.

And just like that, I'm into demon stories!!

Even since I read IWSATB, Mason Deaver is an auto-buy author for me. When I saw that they wrote a horror story I was SO excited cause it's really hard to find good horror stories and even harder to find good queer horror stories.

And of course Mason didn't disappoint. On the contrary, this was even better that I expected. I'm not a fan of the paranormal and that's a big part of the horror genre and the main reason I hardly ever find horror books that I enjoy.

This one though, it's so well done that made me want to read more books with demons!! Even if it's a short story, its characters are well written and developed! In just a few hours, Mason was able to awake my love for the occult, which was asleep for almost a decade now. And let me tell you, it woke up with a craving!!

So, if you are reading this, THANK YOU Mason for all those feelings and for filling a need I had forgotten I had.

Kept Me Interested on a Drive

What the narrator lacked in performance, the story made up for it. It did leave me wanting more but read by someone new.

A quick read

I liked the premise of the book it was a cool demonic story, that was centered around the powers of persuasion and manipulation and a good lesson that what you summon might not agree with your plan.

Amazing, Unbelievable, Will leave you on the Edge of your Seat

Wow! This book had twists and turns until the end! The story was masterfully written! It left me wanting more. I want to know what happens next!!!!!!
My only critique is that the readers voices could have used some more diversity between characters. It’s a minor thing.
Listen to this book!!!!!! You won’t be disappointed!!!!

A good lesson

I enjoyed this story, short and easy to follow. It sort of confirms that doing evil never pays, even when your goal is evil itself. Lol.
