SLAY ALL DAY is a standalone spooky and erotic romance by Cynthia Eden. This story starts out with what seems to be a damsel in distress. Enter cocky paranormal hunter Harrison Key. At first glance, Harrison saves Elise Aine from being a vampire’s buffet. However, in the paranormal world, appearances can be very deceiving. At the start, I wasn’t sure I’d enjoy SLAY ALL DAY because I didn’t initially warm to the two main characters. As the story progressed, the story became more interesting and the characters revealed hidden depths.
Elise’s cover story is that miscellaneous paranormal baddies are after her because of some curse. That’s not entirely true. Over the course of this book readers, and Harrison, soon realize that Elise is a force to be reckoned with. Cynthia Eden writes some of the best trust/betrayal-themed romances, and SLAY ALL DAY is another great example. Elise doesn’t set out to use Harrison for dome nefarious purpose, but her brother has put her in a very difficult position, making her desperately need Harrison’s help. The air of danger, wild characters, epic battles, and a badass heroine are reminiscent of the KILL BILL films. As Elise and Harrison are caught in an erotic web of seduction, the intensity of their feelings for each other gradually increases. I love how fiercely protective these two characters are of each other. The source of the danger in SLAY ALL DAY comes in many forms – obvious as well as more subtle and secret ones.
SLAY ALL DAY is a sizzling love story with bad blood, bad brutes, and one badass heroine. As always, Cynthia Eden tells a thrilling supernatural story while balancing the thrills and action with the romance and character- development. A highlight, and highly amusing scene, in SLAY ALL DAY is when a rogue fae princess tells a bedtime story of female empowerment to a captive audience of one. I normally don’t enjoy books about the fey, but this author makes it work for me. I look forward to Cynthia Eden’s next romance – whether paranormal, romantic suspense, or a mix of both.
What happens when a monster hunter falls for his prey?
Harrison Key has one job—hunt and destroy monsters. He’s taken out vamps, shifters, demons…it’s all in a night’s work for him. He protects the innocent and destroys the wicked. Case closed. The job doesn’t pay much and the benefits are literally hell, but a hunter is born to the work. Gifted with super strength and speed, Harrison was created to fight monsters. There is nothing else for him in this world.
Then he meets her.
She looks like innocence but makes him think of the hottest sin. When Harrison first meets Elise Aine, she’s surrounded by vamps who are only too eager to take a bite. Harrison stakes the vamps and intends to walk away from Elise, but she has other plans. She says that she’s under supernatural attack. Elise desperately needs his protection, and she’ll pay any price. One look into her dark and gorgeous eyes, and Harrison can’t walk away. He doesn’t want to walk away. He wants her.
What Harrison doesn’t know…could just kill him.
Elise isn’t human. Not by a long shot. And she’s got big plans for Harrison. Sure, the guy may think he’s a hunter, he may believe that his job is to rid the world of the wicked, but he’s dead wrong. And with her help, Harrison may just turn out to be the wickedest one of them all. Because he’s not really a hunter. He’s something far, far more interesting. And hot. Smokin’, in fact.
He just needs to let his wild side out to play…
As the queen of the fairies, Elise was born to trick and deceive, and, with way too many enemies closing in, she needs the most powerful protector imaginable at her side. Harrison is her destined mate, if he’ll just stop fighting monsters long enough to see that deep inside…he is a beast. A beast like no other. One that can blast fire and soar into the skies. A beast who can only be bound and tamed by love.
Betrayal burns deep and cuts hard.
Can the queen of the fairies show a hunter that even monsters can love? Or when he finds out the truth about her, will rage be all that Harrison knows? Either way, things are about to get red-hot. Watch out for the flames and smoke.
