Review

I was worried when I first started A Darker Past that it wouldn’t live up to Darker Days, the first book in the Darker Agency Series. I mean, seriously, what could possibly follow a delightfully snarky heroine dealing with the (hot, hot, HOT) embodiment of one of the seven deadly sins, a demonic dog, a witchy best friend, and the rest of the deadlies out wreaking havoc in the world?  The answer to that? Going to Hell. Breaking the rules. Breaking a mirror with a demon inside. And then having to deal with the demon–on top of all the usual issues that come with being a half-demon teen.

I am loving this series! Jessie’s narrative voice is strong, and Accardo’s writing is crisp and clean. The action keeps the story moving, and the interludes with Lukas are lovely. I can’t wait for the next installment!

Entangled Teen

Summary from Goodreads:

The past is Darker than they thought… Between helping her mother with the Darker Agency and laying the smack down on monster baddies, Jessie Darker puts the “normal” in paranormal. But lately, things have gotten a little crazy…even for a smart-assed half-demon teenage girl. For starters, Jessie’s been contracted into fifty-five years of annoying servitude. To a demon. Then there’s Lukas Scott, her sexy new boyfriend. Once the former incarnation of Wrath, he’s been going through some…uh, changes. Like residual anger. And trading chaste hangouts for lusty make-out sessions. But it’s when Lukas and Jessie accidentally release a Very Nasty Demon that things get really bad, setting into motion a chain of death and mayhem that threatens both Earth and the Shadow Realm. Jessie has exactly four days to fix it…before all of Hell breaks loose.
