Helpful Score: 2
I've been enjoying Zoe Archer more than I thought I would. This book starts a new series (historical paranormal romance), and it's a good kickoff with an interesting premise .... 5 friends unwittingly release "The Devil" from a two thousand year imprisonment, and are rewarded with their deepest heart's desire.
What I like: Archer writes a very strong heroine without being "too" contemporary (although she does not avoid contemporary mores completely, which some might dislike in a historical); the romantic relationship develops based on the personalities of the characters (rather than falling in love with the face); and the paranormal plot is dynamic, interesting, and integral to the story (rather than being stuck onto the book, or an afterthought).
