Publisher's summary

What does a forty-year-old former child star do when she finds out she’s a Demon?

A sitcom, of course.

Age is just a number unless you’re an actress of a certain age trying to make a comeback in La La Land. Back in the day, I was the child star of the hit show Camp Bites. Today, I’m still living it down.

After a disastrous soap opera audition and getting fired from a TV show for not having a bodacious enough backside, one would think I’d be smart enough to go into real estate.

Nope.

Just found out from the rudest, meanest, and hottest guy alive that I’m a Demon. The jerk, also a Demon, goes by the name Abaddon—Abe to his friends.

I call him Dick.

He’s come from the Underworld to protect me—insert laugh track—since there’s a bounty on my head. Dick is not a welcome addition to my midlife madness. However, he won’t go away, and now he’s my new boss.

Fine. Whatever. All I ever wanted to do in my life was pretend. I can pretend to get along with Dick. I can pretend that I’m not wildly attracted to him. Not sure I can pretend I’m human anymore, or that a supernatural assassin isn’t trying to cancel me, but I’m going to fake it until I make it. Or I get killed.

As the Underworld turns upside down, so have the days of my life.

potential is there

I was extremely excited to see a new book out from Robyn Peterman. her other midlife series is my favorite so I was especially happy to see this book is in the same world as that one with a character Abadon that has already been introduced in the other books. like usual this had me laughing out loud. overall I liked it though I felt it was a little rushed in some aspects and underdeveloped in others. it can be a start to another good series of books though.

Jessica Almasy is one of my favorite narrators but even some of her reading sounded a little off with pauses in places that didn't make sense.

overall, I'll be looking forward to reading/hearing more. this ends on somewhat of a cliff hanger or at the height of a conflict so if that bothers you like it does me, maybe wait for a couple books to come out on this series so you can move right on to the next one without the wait!

definitely irreverent.

Truly adult humor with a lot of rough language. So if cursing bothers you this book is not for you.
Still for me it was uproariously humorous, LMAO 🤣. Yes iam glad I purchased it and the kindle version too.
It was fun to follow along with the narrator Jessica Almasy. Who by the way did a very impressive job. She was spot on with all her different voices, dialects, and interpretation of the story as she narrated it.
I look forward to more of Almasy's work, also this series by Robyn Peterman.

Good start

This is a really good start to a new series. Daisy and Gideon make an appearance from another series. I think this will be good and quite humorous.

Great Start

Cecily is an aging actress trying to find work when she finds out she's a demon. Cecily is in trouble and Abe is here to save her. Robyn Peterman is one of those authors that what ever she writes is just freakin awesome, this book is no exception. Cecily is a very good character, I like her so much. I'm so glad Robyn came up with a new series, I'm excited to see what happens next. If you haven't read anything by this author than you are definitely missing out. Great Book Robyn, you are awesome.
