REVIEW

"Suspenseful and humorous"

Kate Connor isn't your ordinary soccer mom-- she has a secret. Kate works for a secret division of the vatican called Forza Scura. Forza Scura trains individuals to hunt evil and destroy it. Unfortunately, Kate, also, has a family that doesn't know her secret. Kate discovers that demons have a nefarious plan, and she must stop them with the help of some of her friends. Meanwhile, the chemistry teacher reminds her more and more of her dead first husband.

CALIFORNIA DEMON focuses more on the paranormal aspects of the story than the romance. However, there is some romance in the story--it just takes a backseat to the demon-hunting and family life. Kate is having a hard time juggling demon hunting and potty training. This created many humorous situations that had me chuckling, By the end of the book I was getting nervous for the protagonists--the demons seemed to be getting the upper-hand. Suspenseful and humorous, CALIFORNIA DEMONS is a great way to spend an afternoon.

SUMMARY

Welcome to San Diablo. The perfect place to raise a couple of kids and a lot of Hell. Especially if you're Kate Connor, retired demon hunter. Now, after fourteen years busting her tail as a suburban housewife, raising two kids, and supporting her husband's political ambitions, she's rejoined the workforce...well, secretly, at least. Between fending off demon attacks, trying to figure out why the mysterious new teacher at the high school seems so strangely familiar, and keeping a watchful eye on her daughter's growing infatuation with a surfer dude, Kate is the busiest-and most dangerous-soccer mom on the block.
