About this book

Beatrice Calloway has always been the ultimate socialite, but her twenty-first birthday party takes a terrifying turn when a drop-dead gorgeous demon named Charysyllon crashes the festivities. He brings news that ruins her plans: her soul is officially booked for a permanent residency in the underworld. Bea, however, is far from a typical sinner. Armed with grit and a designer wardrobe, she strikes a dangerous bargain with the arrogant Soul Repossessor. If she can prove her contract is a fraud, she just might keep her soul—and save her heart from a demon who is unexpectedly tempting.

This high-stakes paranormal romance is the perfect blend of style and supernatural chaos. Imagine Legally Blonde meeting the witty, celestial banter of Good Omens, and you have the hilarious, fast-paced world of Misery Hills. As Bea and Char embark on a treacherous road trip through hell-realms, they uncover a deadly conspiracy that threatens both her father’s legacy and her very existence.

If you crave a story that balances laugh-out-loud humor with sizzling chemistry and high-stakes demonic drama, this is your next obsession. Bea’s transformation from privileged socialite to fierce survivor makes for an unforgettable journey. Dive into this addictive series starter where the heels are high, the stakes are soul-crushing, and the romance is scorching.

Legally Blonde Meets Good Omens
