Romance Paranormal

Constance Plyd is having a bad day. She's determined to get her soon-to-be-ex to sign the divorce papers, after she cleans up the mess of a bubble-filled kitchen, the result of Jimmy's latest attempt at help by putting laundry detergent in the dishwasher. She's saved from a confrontation with Jimmy when she hears a racket in the garage. Sure she's going to find yet another Jimmy- disaster, she's only partially right. She finds Jimmy face- down on the floor with a screw-driver poking out of his back. Standing over him is the culprit, a dark man wearing a baseball cap who leaves a demonic calling card that disappears as quickly as he does, leaving Constance the prime suspect in Jimmy's murder. Nathan Garrett was known as a love-'em-and-leave-'em ladies man in his teenage years, rumored to notch his bedpost with the local virgins he'd seduced. Constance had been number 22, and she's never forgiven him, especially since Jimmy was the rebound result. But Nathan has changed his wild ways and is now the local sheriff. Constance is not feeling any more favorably toward him when it looks like Nathan is going to have to arrest her for Jimmy's murder. It turns out Jimmy was murdered in the hopes of shocking Constance into having visions. Destined to be a minor prophet, Jimmy's unexpected death has the desired results and Constance begins seeing the future. Things aren't looking good for the world, with visions of Satan on earth and pop stars being the mother of his son. With the help of Jimmy, who's in her life as a ghost until the mystery of his death is resolved, a helpful dog that's more than he appears to be and a skeptical Nathan, Constance is in a race against time to stay out of jail and thwart Satan's evil plans. Cara Lockwood's EVERY DEMON HAS HIS DAY is a cleverly plotted read. Constance is a fun heroine, her scenes with Jimmy are hilarious and the good vs. evil battle is truly entertaining. Nathan and Constance's romance is heartwarming, and the scenes between Constance and the demons and Jimmy are sure to bring on the laughs. EVERY DEMON HAS HIS DAY will have readers eagerly awaiting the next in this series.

SUMMARY

Whipping up prize-winning chicken fried steak...fighting demonic forces...East Texas gals can do it all!

In her wildest dreams, Constance Plyd never thought she'd see dead people. Then again, she never thought she'd be hit on by her ex-husband at his own funeral...or be the prime suspect in his murder. Fortunately for Constance, irresistibly sexy sheriff Nathan Garrett wants to believe her explanation -- that a card-carrying demon in a black suit killed Jimmy in the garage -- or maybe he wants something more. Either way, all signs are leading to a showdown of hellish proportions, with Constance at the heart of the battle, when the Devil and would-be mother of the Antichrist (a pop princess wannabe) descends on Crockett County. Sure, she'd rather be cooking up a storm for the next state fair, but if she's going to be the Chosen One, at least Constance can give a few demons a Texas-style butt kicking....
