Her great-uncle Roy—a Catholic priest and Shelby’s guardian—believes she has a gift for expelling demons, and he’s put her through exorcist boot camp hell, but he still doesn’t trust her to do an exorcism on her own.High school is hard enough without having to explain that you fight demons for a living, so Shelby keeps her extracurricular activity quiet, especially from Spencer, her cute math tutor. Secrets run in Shelby’s family, though: her mother has been missing ever since an exorcism went horribly wrong, and Uncle Roy is tight-lipped about it. But Shelby’s hell-bent on finding her mom, no matter what—even if what it ends up costing her her soul AND a date with Spencer.
I may be able to face down a demon, but the idea of making a move on Spencer is way scarier.
That is probably the best way to describe that book. Lol. It’s so accurate! 😂 I loved Shelby and her sass and her crush on Spencer... it was just so cute!
He glances at me, and I'm sure he can probably see the cartoon hearts in my real eyes.
The sexual tension... so good! I loved every second of it! And not only that, but this was just a really funny book! It made me laugh a lot, and it was definitely all thanks to Shelby and her sassy personality. She was great!
I really enjoyed this book! It was cute and fun and had great characters. The story itself was interesting, what with the demon hunting and the exorcizing of the demons and Shelby looking for her missing mother... and all these things came together really nicely. I also really enjoyed the mythos behind the demons—it was very intriguing stuff! I liked it!
