Succubus Blues (Georgina Kincaid, Bk 1)

Georgina Kincaid is a succubus. Has been for hundreds of years. She's currently assigned to the demon district of Seattle, but she's not really feeling being a succubus anymore. Oh, sure, she still needs to eat sexual energy from men, but she tries to keep it to the low-lifes, like cheaters, and avoid the good guys. Thankfully her demon boss lets her lack of stealing souls for the bad side slide. All in all, life is pretty good for Georgina. Her favorite author is even coming to do a reading at the bookstore she works at! But one night a vampire is killed and threats start coming in against all the baddies in Seattle--including Georgina.

Getting an urban fantasy that isn't all about a demon slayer but instead is about the demons is just awesome. It is really fun to be rooting for the succubus, demons, and vampires. Also, it's nice that for once we pop into the middle of the main character's life instead of meeting her right when she gets her powers. The sex scenes are well-written. Um, really well-written. *coughs* The love interest is realistically attractive and intelligent, which is pure win.

So what's keeping it from five stars for me? I'm not a fan that Georgina has somehow turned into a reluctant succubus. I want my succubus to steal men's life energy and LIKE IT.

Overall, this is a delicious urban fantasy that I highly recommend to fans of the genre who enjoy steamy sex and rooting for the bad guys.
