I live in a forgotten corner of nowhere for a reason: there is safety in anonymity. I have enough problems just trying to get by. But when Kieran, a sinfully sexy demigod at the pinnacle of power, crashes into my life, suddenly my whole world is turned upside down. He’s harboring a deadly secret, one that could destroy all he holds dear. He thinks I’m the key to his salvation, and he wants me to help him claim vengeance. He also wants me with a passion.

When LA’s vampires, witches, and werewolves make a mess, they call Scarlett Bernard to clean it up. Her ability as a null erases all magical traces from anything — or anyone — that comes within ten feet of her, and keeps humans in the dark about the city’s paranormal activity. One night when she’s called to a grisly crime scene, Scarlett is spied by the all-too-human LAPD cop Jesse Cruz, who strikes up a deal with her: he’ll keep quiet about the supernatural underworld if she helps him crack the case. She agrees, but the city’s chief vampire, Dash, starts to suspect Scarlett is behind the murders and will reveal all she knows of his shadowy empire. Now it’ll take more than Scarlett’s unique abilities to clear her name, keep the underworld underground, and track down the real killer.

Waking up in hell is not Del Bellator’s idea of a good time. She’d rather be back on earth, killing demons and hunting down magical treasure for her shop, Ancient Magic. Turns out escaping hell is easy - it’s staying out that’s hard. Del's dragon magic is illegal in the supernatural world. Worse, she doesn’t know how to control it. And if others learn her secret, she’s dead. Things get ugly when the Warden of the Underworld shows up to drag her back to hell. He’s a one of a kind demon shifter - the sexiest, most powerful one she’s ever met - and he’s set his sights on her.

Publisher's Summary
Vampire bounty hunter Morgan Bailey wants three things for her birthday: cupcakes, a little action from her sexy new boyfriend, and a good night’s sleep. After the year she’s had, is a quiet celebration really so much to ask?
Apparently…yes. It turns out a psychotic sidhe - a subspecies of fae - is running amok in Portland, and it’s up to Morgan to take him down. There’s just one problem: this fairy is as powerful as he is psychotic. And considering the supernatural nut jobs Morgan has dealt with, that’s saying something.
Morgan ends up forming an uneasy alliance with the Fairy Queen and embarks upon her most outrageous adventure yet to take out the renegade sidhe. If she fails though, and the sidhe achieves his endgame, it will trigger devastation unlike anyone - or anything, human or otherwise - has ever seen.

What a disappointment...
Would you try another book from Shéa MacLeod and/or Emily Sutton-Smith?
No. The first two books in the series held promise, but this one seemed to have a patchwork plot. It is possible the author was using this book as a bridge to extend the series. However, with such a disappointing story, I will not be a reader/listener of any future books.
What do you think your next listen will be?
Nothing in this series. The Penton Legacy series was recommended by a friend so I will give that a try. I know the narrator of that series is very good.
What do you think the narrator could have done better?
Narrator was mediocre.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Disappointment that I spent my time listening to it.

Enjoyable serires
Where does Kissed by Smoke rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
8 out of 10
Who was your favorite character and why?
Morgan.
What does Emily Sutton-Smith bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
She really brings the characters to life.
Any additional comments?
The weakest part of the book is the romance. There was such great potential for the love triangle. But t.he dragon is so perfect - boring I can't remember his name. Jake is the worlds worst bodyguard. Before they met he could psychically intuit when she was in trouble. After they met...not so much. Supposedly he couldn't be with her because he needs to be clear headed to guard her...but after they slept together a couple of times he not only couldn't sense when she was in trouble...but was never around her and never answered her phone call. I started wondering if after he got what he wanted he just wanted to be left alone so he could teach 5th graders piano.

this book was not as good as the first 2. the MC had way too many TSTL moments and it really hurt the story. it was impossible not to feel aggravated with her actions and thought process almost constantly throughout the book. I'm hanging on and hoping the next book redeems this book in the series.

While I'm really enjoying this series, Morgan frustrates me no end waffling on whether or not to use her powers. I love that the author keeps you constantly on edge with the twists and turns in the plot. You will certainly enjoy the non - stop action.

Too much angst!!!!
the main character is annoying. I cannot understand the constant whining and denial. I keep trying to listen to this series but between this book and the last one it's hard for me to continue. How many books does it take for the main character to stop whining and enjoying her state of denial? I don't think i want to find out?
