Review & Giveaway: The Demon's Deadline by Tori Centanni


Nicki almost died in the car accident. Instead she was offered a deal.

Now she works for the demon Azmos, delivering his mysterious envelopes all over town. Only her boyfriend Cam knows the truth about her after-school job—Cam, who’s (thankfully) as understanding as he is gorgeous and smart. Nicki’s never had Cam’s bold ambitions; her only talent is guessing the killer in a horror movie. All she wants is to graduate high school, marry Cam someday, and live happily ever after… but lately her work for the demon’s pulling her into deeper danger. Danger that threatens her life and also the bonds that matter most to her. Her best friend Melissa, whom she’s forced to lie to. Her grieving father. And Cam.

But is it even possible to free herself from the contract that saved her life?

And what if she did manage to untangle herself from the arcane world forever — without it, what kind of life does Nicki have left? Once you've seen death and darkness, once you know that magic is real, how can you ever go back to being a normal teenager?

It’s finally time Nicki faced her own demons....

REVIEW

Nicki made a deal with the demon, Azmos.  In return of her life back, Azmos uses Nicki to deliver mysterious letters to complete strangers.  The only person who knows about this is Cam, Nicki's boyfriend.  When her job gets more dangerous and even the demon himself is not safe anymore, Nicki needs to choose between her beautiful life and the demon job.  Even though the choice seems obvious, Nicki doesn't seem to think so.

Nicki is easy to relate to.  An average girl with insecurities of her own and low confidence, Nicki loves to be a demon messenger more than her secure life.  Her actions, although not appreciable, has some reasons behind.  And being a teenager, I know this can happen.  And Cam, Nicki's boyfriend is a perfect boyfriend one could expect.  I was loving Cam more and more, every time Nicki made a mistake and Cam has to deal with it.  And then the demons themselves - not much back story there. But the author has made a room for it in the next book of the series.

The story was unique and easy at the same time and author's talent in writing only made it much better.  It was a short read and I was not ready to turn off my Kindle when it ended.  I needed more...especially after that taste of the second book in the end.

4.5 STARS!
