This was a fun read that I really enjoyed. The banter was funny and none of the characters fell flat for me. I will say that the chemistry was a tiny bit lacking between the characters but other than that I don't really have any notes on the characters. The only semi- major problems I had with this were the narrating at points and the pacing. I feel as if the FMC figured out his secret a little to fast and the narrating fell a little flat. There wasn't a lot of variation between the characters voices so sometimes I was confused about who was talking and the guy's voices weren't all that great and I found myself cringing a little bit at times. Overall though I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun spicy paranormal read.

Thank you to NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read My Funny Demon Valentine! I really enjoyed this book so much! This was a perfect February read and the narrator for the audiobook did such an amazing job! I really enjoyed the characters introduced in this book (especially the demon brothers) and the relationship between the characters. I loved seeing the brothers develop as the book went on and the relationship between Ash and Eva. The writing style wasn’t my favorite but it didn’t stop me from enjoying the audiobook! The ending has me so excited to read the next book and see where this series will go with all the characters! Thank you again to NetGalley for letting me read this amazing book!💕📚

I've found my newest obsession! The story and the characters are amazing but the audiobook makes it even better somehow. There isn't a single side character that I didn't like enough to wish there was a book for them as well.

I had an absolute blast with this book! It was the perfect mix of silly and spicy, keeping me entertained from start to finish. I can’t wait to dive into the rest of the series! I listened to the audiobook, and Kirsten Leigh’s narration was phenomenal—she truly brought the story and characters to life.

Eek. This one was a flop for me. It felt like the writing was a bit juvenile for how spicy this book was. The concept was there, but it just didn’t execute as well as as I would’ve liked. The narrator did a fine job with the female parts obviously but not with the male parts. I really hate when I can’t decipher who is who while I’m listening to a book.

This was cute sexy romantasy. I liked the fact that it was sexy while still having a plot. I'm delighted to see where the next book goes and what brother finds love next.

Thanks to Netgalley for this ARC. My Funny Demon Valentine by Aurora Asher, narrated in audiobook form, is a delightful and humorous listen that will keep you entertained from start to finish. The story blends romance, fantasy, and plenty of laughs as the main characters navigate an unexpected relationship with a demon. Asher’s writing is witty and charming, with fun characters that are easy to root for. The narrator’s performance adds depth to the story, bringing the humor and emotions to life. With great pacing and a fun plot, this audiobook is a perfect choice for fans of lighthearted paranormal romance.

Absolutely enjoyable! Great banter, lovable characters, and the spice was perfect. If you are looking for a fun fantasy rom-com, this is one you should check out.

Four demons sick of playing by the rules, escape Hell to live among humans. One of them being the Prince of Lust, who evidently is also cursed and is completely invisible to anyone who may find him attractive. Until he meets a beautiful violinist who can see right through his curse.

This was a very fast-paced read, it had me giggling and kicking my feet from all the banter especially between the brothers. Ash and Eva's relationship was adorable. And for a demon who didn't know what love was, he sure made me fall for him! I absolutely did not see that ending, and I'm definitely going to read book 2 in the series. I would recommend this book as a great palette cleanser in-between long series.

I got picked to listen to the audio book through Netgalley so this is my narrator's review bit: I really enjoyed Kirsten Leigh's narration for this book. She did a great job differentiating the characters and made it exciting to listen to.

Thank you RBmedia Audio, Aurora Ascher, and Netgalley for the ARC.

Thank you to NetGalley and RB Media/Recorded Books for the Review Copy of this audiobook.

From NetGalley description: Asmodeus, Prince of Hell, just wants to make music. Jazz, specifically. Unfortunately, he’s a demon. And he’s supposed to be evil. Evangeline Gregory is just your average human. She works at a jazz bar, plays gigs on weekends . . . and, apparently, hallucinates demons.

I had kept hearing good things about it so when I saw that the audiobook was available to request, I thought 'why not'? This was a quick and easy listen. The narration was good. Overall, it was not necessarily my 'cup of tea', but I would definitely recommend it to others interested in this type of book.

3.5 stars - My Funny Demon Valentine (by Aurora Ascher) is silly and corny at times, but also pretty entertaining for a paranormal romance. The demon brothers add plenty of character, and even though some parts are cringe, the lighthearted vibe and steamy scenes kept me turning pages. There’s explicit language, some violence, and a bunch of banter. If you’re in the mood for something over-the-top, I’d say give it a shot!

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC! 💖

I would like to thank the publisher for sending me an audio copy in exchange for an honest review through NetGalley.

Evangeline is playing at a club when she catches the eye of literally the hottest guy she has ever seen, so she goes over and talks to him and the two of them really hit it off. Too bad she shouldn't have been able to since he's cursed and, oh that's right, he's also Asmodeus, a Prince of Hell. When someone comes to the club going after Asmodeus and his brothers, he quickly escorts her out, only for her to follow him back in and watch as he transforms from sex-on-a-stick human to a seven-foot-tall red-skinned demon with wings, horns, and claws. Evangeline doesn't believe what she's seeing, so she decides to move past it. Ash was just hoping to escape with his brothers to earth in order to live new lives, but he's still being hunted, and they want to bring him back to hell. Will they be able to be together as their feelings for one another grow? Or has it been doomed from the start?

I love the concept of a demon who likes to play music. Ash was such a great character, from the moment he meets Eva and is absolutely confused by her and the attention she gives him to the moment he realizes he has feelings for her (which are gross. Because what demon has feelings like that?) And then admitting those feelings? (He DID tell her his stomach hurts when she's upset and his chest hurts when he thinks of her. Isn't that enough?) And then his interactions with his brothers are just everything. I hope we get more of them in the next books.

Eva was a fun character, but I loved her mom so much more. She was hilarious and seeing her interact with Ash's brothers was amazing. I think what I loved about this wasn't just the two main characters (although they were great and the spice was fabulous), but also the side characters. I feel like the combination of everyone made this book so much better than I thought it would be. Plus seeing things from their POVs was also excellent. Plus the plot was cute.

Overall, I enjoyed this. And I too would grab a demon's horns and call them love handles. (I mean, what else are they for?)

This was a fun read. A new to me take on demons. It felt sort of silly, like a sitcom but I was there for Ash and his brothers. I will be continuing as the audios release.

I think the narrator did a great job. This book was entertaining, funny, and full of spice! I liked how we got glimpse of the other character’s POVs!! Looking forward to the next book! Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for the opportunity to listen in exchange for a review.

Honestly, I bought this book because of the pretty sprayed edges. I’m an easy sell. But OMG it was so good! It was really funny and entertaining throughout. I loved all the characters and especially loved the banter between the demons. This is NOT a slow burn and thank goodness for that. The spice was spicy but yet didn’t take me out of the story. It was a perfect balance. Thanks to the publisher for the ALC audio, I was able to read and listen at the same time (my favorite way to read). I normally prefer a dual narrator audio but this very good considering it was just a single person. I am so excited for the next book in this series now.

Book Review: An Entertaining but Forgettable Read

Every once in a while, you come across a book that’s undeniably engaging but doesn’t quite leave a lasting impact. This is one of those books. It has all the right ingredients—an intriguing premise, fast-paced storytelling, and a few unexpected twists—but it ultimately falls short of being truly great.

The story moves quickly, making it easy to get lost in the plot. The characters are likable enough, though they sometimes feel a bit one-dimensional or predictable. The writing style is accessible, keeping the pages turning, but it lacks the depth or nuance that would make it truly memorable.


Overall, this is the kind of book that’s perfect for a quick escape—something to pass the time without requiring too much emotional investment. If you’re looking for pure entertainment, it’s a solid choice, but if you’re hoping for something thought-provoking or groundbreaking, you might want to look elsewhere.

I enjoyed this. Was it deep and moving? No. But it made me laugh out loud a few times, and I was entertained from start to finish. These demons are hilarious, and I can't wait for the next book.

Having only one narrator was a bit confusing at times since it's not labeled as to who is speaking and we get multiple points of view... but I liked the narrator just fine.

While not what I was expecting when starting the book, which was a cute valentines day story about demons, it was still a good listen on audio book. The story gripped me right away, and while I wish it was duel narrated and the POV switching was a bit weird at times due to the type of person the story was told in, it was still an entertaining listen about two unlikely beings falling in love and learning what love actually is.

🎙 Narration: I was immediately enthralled in this story because the narration did such a good job of bringing the characters to life! I’m always amazed at how narrators can keep each character’s different vocal inflections and accents straight, and this book has lots of different characters and it was done flawlessly.
📚 Story Vibes: This was a super fun paranormal romance 🥰 I went in just expecting a spicy story, but it was filled with characters that had depth and growth that you see on page throughout the book. There were also some family secrets divulged throughout the plot that keep things moving at a fast pace, and kept me on the edge of my seat.

💭 My Brain While Listening:
🔹 Ohhh so we’re getting right into things? Yes 🙌
🔹 Demons, devils, and witches, oh my!!
🔹 It’s so cool how music is used throughout the story as a method to not only further the plot line, but show character growth!

✨ Final Thoughts:
This is a very fun, mostly light-hearted romcom with fun characters, great banter, spice, and a compelling story line. I’m already excited for the next book in the series 🤗

🎧 Best Experienced While: Cozied up under your softest blanket, eating chocolate covered strawberries with smooth jazz music gently playing in the background.

Final Verdict: My Funny Demon Valentine is an entertaining paranormal romance that has promise of being a super enjoyable series for those who like spicy paranormal stories 💖

I was very excited for this book and unfortunately it fell short for me. There were parts that kept my attention and those were the funny ones. I feel like it was the writing style for me as well the story just not hot the mark.

This book was a breath of fresh air!

I absolutely loved everything about it—it was funny, engaging, and hot, with fantastic main and side characters that I cannot wait to read more about in future books.

I highly recommend this to all romantasy lovers, especially those who were obsessed with the Lucifer TV series. The demon vibes are spot on—the way they want to live among humans but completely fail at basic social interactions had me cracking up more than once.

But beyond the humor, it was also incredibly sweet. Watching Ash come to terms with his feelings made me swoon so many times.

I also appreciated that we got more than one plotline. While I’m usually not a huge fan of third-person narration, I think it really worked here. Not having Eva and Ash’s direct POV but instead a broader narration that includes secondary characters gave the story so much more depth and perfectly set up future sequels.

Overall, 4.5 stars! I had such a great time reading this!
