Description

Teen fashionista Ayana always believed she’d go to hell and back for her sister, Sabrina, but she never thought it would be so literal. After a family dinner where Sabrina’s boyfriend, Damian, is replaced by a shape-shifting mirror demon that’s out for her soul, Ayana is forced to put her designing dreams on hold to become the chic demon-slayer her sister needs.

Unfortunately, demon hunting isn’t as easy as sprinkling holy water around, especially after she has a brush with death and is rescued by sweet, musical Carter. Not only is he charming and handsome, but suddenly he’s popping up everywhere, distracting her from her mission. Just as she starts to fall for him, coincidences begin to pile up, Ayana realizes that Carter and Damian’s sudden appearances in her life may not be due to chance after all. Perhaps the two are more intertwined than she thought.

To save her sister and protect her heart, Ayana is forced to team up with her disaster cousin, her baking-obsessed best friend, and her eccentric guardian angel to confront the one thing she hadn’t been expecting to fight: love.

In this stylish, laugh-out-loud story of sisterhood and self-acceptance, Ayana learns to face the demon in the mirror, and that sometimes, you can fall in love for the hell of it.  

Teen fashionista Ayana always believed she’d go to hell and back for her sister, Sabrina, but she never thought it would be so literal. After a family dinner where Sabrina’s boyfriend, Damian, is...

I enjoyed so much about this book! The characters were fleshed out and relatable. I loved the relationship between Ayana and her sister Sabrina. Ayana's relationship with Carter developed organically over the course of the book, and they were a great couple. I felt that Zelroth was a good antagonist, though I wish his character and motivations had been fleshed out a bit more. There were great supporting characters like Eva and Theo, and the pacing of the book flowed well. Overall, it was a great read and I loved the overall message of the book. I will definitely recommend it!

Ebook Review
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Love be damned, Briana Garrett's book is not getting the hype it truly deserves. This YA Black paranormal romance, with demons, but mostly focusing on the sisterly bond, should be talked about more. I enjoyed this story a lot; I didn't want to stop reading, and for it to be YA, it kept my attention. The cover art is simply beautiful, and I will have to get the physical copy.
