About this audiobook
But Speare's newest case really has him going out on a limb. The right-hand man of a notorious crime boss has been found dead in a dumpster-minus his right hand, not to mention the rest of his arm. What catches Speare's attention, however, is that the missing appendage was severed clean by a demon-sword, a frighteningly powerful tool of the underworld.
Speare's out of his element, so he turns to a specialist: Ardeth Coyle, master thief, dealer in occult artifacts, and bona fide temptress. Ardeth's hotter than a Las Vegas sidewalk on the fourth of July, but she's one sin Speare has to resist.
The dismembered corpses are piling up, unimaginable evil lurks in the shadows, and if this odd couple hopes to beat the odds, Speare needs to keep his hands off Ardeth, and his head in the game.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I have a lot of mixed feelings about this one. I went into this book with really big expectations. I absolutely love Stacia Kane's Downside Ghosts series so I had hoped to find a new series to love. I found this book really had a hard time holding my interest during the first half. Things did pick up and by the end of the book and I ended up really enjoying myself but it did take a long time to get to that point. I loved the idea behind this book. Speare is a Private Investigator living in Las Vegas. He is forced to commit sins in order to keep his demon in check. He really has no choice but to be a bad guy in some ways. He needs some help solving a crime involving a demon sword so he asks a local thief, Ardeth for some help. I liked the mystery in the story well enough. It was really just enough to keep me going in the story. I never knew exactly where things were going and there were a few twists that surprised me. I think that the main issue with this book was that the first half was so incredibly slow. The focus seemed to be on the characters more than anything and they just were not clicking for me at all. As the mystery picked up speed, something changed for me and the book became much more enjoyable. The romance between Speare and Ardeth never felt completely authentic. I simply couldn't feel the chemistry between them that I had hoped. I did really enjoy the last parts of the book and I am very hopeful about future books in the series. There were a few threads planted that I am hoping to see followed as the series continues. I received an advance reader edition of this book from Random House Publishing Group - Loveswept via NetGalley for the purpose of providing an honest review.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I can not tell you how happy I am to be reading a new Stacia Kane book. I devoured her Downside Ghost series and have reread them a number of times. I can already tell that I'll be reading this one again and hopefully any future books in this universe. Vegas was the right setting for this private investigator and thief romance. Looking forward to more in this series.Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Free review copy. Kane’s paranormal series about a tough-as-nails magic user and her big bruiser of a boyfriend really hits my sweet spot; she’s trying something slightly different here with an opening story from the point of view of the bruiser-type. Here, magic isn’t generally known to normal folks, and our bruiser is rumored to be the son of a Las Vegas mob boss. What people don’t know is that he’s the host of a demon, who has to be fed with sins in order to keep it from taking over entirely and leaving a trail of murder, rape, and torture. When he has to team up with Ardeth, an extremely good thief, she gets right through his defenses, but that just makes her more of a target for the demon inside him. The worldbuilding was interesting, but the instant attraction seemed a bit forced, though that’s often how I feel about the romance aspects of these types of books.
