The Book of Azrael: Gods and Monsters, Book 1

by Kerri Maniscalco
Gabriel Axton, the infamous Prince of Gluttony, has spent his immortal life chasing indulgence and danger within his demon court. However, when his latest hunt reveals a sinister corruption threatening his kingdom, he is forced to solicit help from the one person he has spent a decade avoiding: Adriana Saint Lucent. An ambitious journalist, Adriana has long been determined to expose Gabriel’s moral failings to the world.
She views the prince as a decadent scoundrel, and he views her as an inconvenient thorn in his side. Their forced alliance begins as a clash of wills, but the discovery of a terrifying, supernatural conspiracy shifts the stakes from personal rivalry to survival. As they navigate the treacherous, shadowed corners of the Underworld, the line between their mutual disdain and a simmering, volatile attraction begins to blur.
Thrown together by necessity, the pair must unearth long-buried secrets and confront a darkness that threatens to consume them both. In a world where trust is a liability and every promise is a potential trap, Gabriel and Adriana must decide if they can set aside their history long enough to save their realm—or if their undeniable chemistry will prove to be their greatest undoing.
JennyDemons, magic and ice dragons: What's not to like in this series?
"The premise of this world with the seven princes of Hell is very cool, and in this book we get ice dragons too. It is very good, with lots of plot and story, but also a heavy focus on the romance parts. There is lots of yearning and will they or won't they, and there is a lot of spice too. Highly recommend this series, and I can't wait for the next ones! ["

JDBWHighly entertaining read
"I think this book is the best of the series so far, though I can’t wait for Sloth’s book. Lots of great plots twists and characters. It played on a lot of tropes but did so in an entertaining way so I found I did not mind as much. Recommend for a rainy afternoon read or any time you need some escapism. ["

Dwon DDisappointed
"The quality of the book was excellent it was what was between the pages that left me disappointed. I was excited to read this but was left wanting after reading the first in the series and enjoying it so much. This definitely did not give off the “Bridgerton meets fantasy vibes” everyone is talking about. I literally fell asleep multiple times while reading this and that is not like me at all while reading. It then end it was just meh. ["

Kindle CustomerThrone of secrets series
"I loved then all, her adult fantasy are by fan the best I’ve read. They actually have plot lines that follow all the books. I hope she continues to write more stories of the brother! There are still 3 she hasn’t included as full books in the series yet. So looking forward to reading about Pride, Geed and Lust! ["
