Nadine Mutas

Ever held a seance and accidentally trapped a demon into marriage? No takers? Just me? Crap. Marriage is my idea of hell, at least until the day an unfairly hot demon shows up in my apartment and drags me to actual Hell—as his wife. I’d honestly rather have a root canal without sedation than marry anyone, least of all a surly—even if damnably attractive—demon. But I’m bound to the contract stupid Teenage Me made with Azazel when I accidentally summoned and trapped him into marriage, to be consummated if I were still single at twenty-five. I’d forgotten all about it. He hasn’t. And now he’s here to claim me. Neither of us is thrilled about this marriage-of-inconvenience, but what I hate even more than the idea of being married...is being ignored. So when Azazel intends to park me out of sight and mind at the other end of his estate in Hell, I make it my newly eternal life’s mission to be as much of a real inconvenience to him as possible. It’s all fun and games, until I find a soul that shouldn’t be in Hell, stumble smack-dab into the middle of a demon family feud…and the banter between me and Azazel turns so hot it might consume me. Hellishly Ever After is the first installment in a new paranormal romance series by award-winning author Nadine Mutas. If you love laugh-out-loud funny enemies-to-lovers stories with enough heat to burn up the pages, you don’t want to miss this book!

Hellishly Ever After

Warning: Includes lots of witty banter and snarky humor, as well as a charmingly disrespectful demon hero who's hot enough to melt panties with a look. When seduction weaves a spell more powerful than magic... Desperate to save her demon-abducted sister, witch Merle MacKenna breaks the law when she summons Rhun, another demon, from the magical prison of the Shadows. Rhun might be a demon, but he'll be able to help her, and then she'll bind him when she's through--at least, that's the plan. But Merle finds it's easier said than done when her new demon is hellbent on charming his way into her pants--and her heart. After twenty years in the Shadows, bound for a crime he didn't commit, Rhun is past caring about anyone but himself. The plan: seduce the sexy witch, steal her powers, and be on his merry way. But when a heinous betrayal in the ranks of the witches forces Merle and Rhun to work even closer together, Rhun's plan backfires--and the witch gets under his skin. With his unbidden feelings for Merle vying with his need for freedom, he struggles with a new torment: Being a selfish bastard is a lot harder when love is involved.

A Novel of Love and Magic

To Win a Demon's Love

Witch Anjali Gupta keeps a damning secret. At age twelve, she saved the life of a boy not much older than her. Which would have been a good deed--if that boy wasn't a shadow demon, and Anjali meant to hunt and kill his kind. Now, ten years later, she discovers that the elusive dark protector who has covertly guarded her for years is in fact the shadow demon she once saved. Determined to face her past, she confronts him to find out if sparing his life was right--or whether he's the biggest mistake she's ever made. Thorne has never forgotten the girl with the dazzling green eyes, nor her inexplicable act of kindness when she saved his life. For years, he's been her silent, stealthy protector, not daring to act on his desire for her. When Anjali stubbornly wiggles her way into his life--and further into his heart--he fights the passion sparking between them--for the secret he keeps holds the power to destroy her. This is a standalone novella in the Love and Magic series. It follows the first book, To Seduce a Witch's Heart, but is only loosely connected to the main story line of the series.

To Caress a Demon's Soul

Warning: Contains a hero who’s Tall, Dark, and Possessive, and may melt your heart as well as your reading device. Handle with care and a bucket of ice water nearby. And maybe some tissues. His hunger for power knows no bounds…until she binds his heart. To keep an ill-fated bargain, witch Maeve MacKenna surrenders herself to the scheming Demon Lord Arawn. He’s dangerous, arrogant, ruthless, and dominant — everything she should dread in a male, especially since another demon’s torture left scars on her body and soul. She should tremble with terror in Arawn’s presence. So why does he make her shiver for entirely different reasons? And awaken parts of her body she believed numb after her assault? Arawn gets what Arawn wants. But when the witch he’s been coveting — for the ancient magic bound inside her — walks into his lair, what should have been simple and straightforward becomes uncomfortably complicated as his interest in her…shifts. A dance of power and attraction begins amid a looming outside threat — because Maeve is not the only one with an age-old force stirring inside her, and the Demon Lord’s rivals are all-too eager to seize that kind of power…

To Enthrall the Demon Lord

Warning: Includes a hero who is as sweet as he is sexy, and may cause intense yearning and unintentional hugging of your reading device. Maybe even licking. Love is the lure that could break her curse—or her heart Growing up among witches as a rare and powerless male descendant hasn’t been easy for Basil Murray. When he learns his true identity, he’s all too eager to claim his own magic, but the tangle of lies that shaped his past might just kill him before he unlocks the secret to his powers. And the beautiful fae whose life he saves may be at the center of it all. Fae bounty hunter Isa’s days are numbered. The death curse she’s stalled will soon kill her, unless she ends the bloodline of the one who cursed her. And of course the last living descendant turns out to be the striking male to whom she now owes a life debt. Even worse, Basil has the nerve to unapologetically fall in love with her—and make her crave what she can never have…

To Stir a Fae's Passion

Vi è mai capitato di fare una seduta spiritica e costringere per errore un demone a sposarvi? No? Solo a me? Diamine. ll matrimonio è la mia idea di inferno, almeno fino a quando un demone anche troppo fico non si presenta nel mio appartamento e mi trascina all'inferno, quello vero - nelle vesti di sua moglie. Onestamente, preferirei farmi devitalizzare un dente senza anestesia piuttosto che sposare qualcuno, tantomeno un demone musone - per quanto dannatamente attraente egli sia. Ma sono vincolata dal contratto che la Stupida Me Stessa Adolescente ha stipulato con Azazel quando l'ho evocato per sbaglio e l'ho costretto al matrimonio, da consumarsi qualora fossi arrivata ai venticinque anni ancora single. Io me n'ero completamente dimenticata. Lui no. E ora è venuto a prendermi. Nessuno di noi è entusiasta di questo matrimonio di sconvenienza, ma quello che io detesto ancora di più dell'idea di essere sposata... è essere ignorata. Per cui, quando Azazel decide di parcheggiarmi lontano dagli occhi e dal cuore, dall'altra parte della sua tenuta all'inferno, lo scopo della mia ora eterna vita diventa dargli quanto più fastidio possibile. È tutto un gioco fino a quando io non trovo un'anima che non dovrebbe essere all'inferno, cado di testa nel bel mezzo di una faida familiare demoniaca... e gli sfottò fra me e Azazel diventano così spinti da rischiare di consumarmi. All'inferno e contenti è il primo volume di una nuova serie romance paranormale della premiata autrice Nadine Mutas. La serie segue la stessa eroina, Zoe, per diversi libri, e racconta la sua storia d'amore con Azazel e le sue avventure all'inferno (e oltre), ma questo primo volume NON si chiude con un finale in sospeso. Se amate le storie divertenti, in cui i nemici diventano amanti e che sono abbastanza bollenti da bruciare le pagine, non perdetevi questo libro!

All'inferno e contenti

Warning: Includes one charming hot mess of a demon hero, some silly and naughty late-night phone calls, an extended family that is way too nosy, and a well-behaved witch who learns to cut loose.One night. That's all they need to get each other out of their systems.At least according to demon Tallak when he suggests a night of no-holds-barred bed sport to witch Hazel Murray. Tallak's goals in life are simple—after more than 20 years in a fae dungeon, he just wants to relish his freedom and build a healthy relationship with Basil, the son he'd presumed dead. Having the hots for the witch who raised Basil? Bad idea. Opposite of simple.As Elder witch and head of her family, Hazel has enough on her plate trying to keep the witch community from splintering after the end of the war. Lusting after the biological father of her adopted son is the last thing she needs. Especially since that father is a recent prison escapee demon with a questionable moral compass. A responsible witch and mother would steer clear. But Hazel has been so good for so long…maybe it's time to be just a little bit bad.

While struggling with her new dark instincts - and desperately trying not to kill her loved ones - she unwittingly earns the protection of a male of her demon species. He's more than happy to help her out and show her the ropes. He's also decidedly too gorgeous to handle. Alek Kuznetsov has finally found the perfect mate: beautiful, smart, funny, and of course a pranagraha demon like him.

Solution: While he offers her help in finding the reversion spell, he in fact sets out to convince her that staying on the dark side has more perks than just cookies.

Love and Magic, #4

Attenzione: il libro contiene un eroe demoniaco ammaliatore e disastrato, scambi di battute deliziosamente aggressive, volgarità in abbondanza, scene piccantissime e una strega beneducata che molla il freno. Una notte. È tutto quello di cui hanno bisogno per levarsi ognuno dalla testa il pensiero dell’altro. Almeno secondo il demone Tallak, che suggerisce una notte di acrobazie sessuali senza ritegno alla strega Hazel Murray. Gli obiettivi di Tallak nella vita sono semplici: dopo più di vent’anni trascorsi in una prigione fatata, vuole solo godersi la sua libertà e costruire un rapporto sano con Basil, il figlio che aveva creduto morto. Sbavare per la strega che ha cresciuto Basil? Pessima idea. Il contrario della semplicità. In quanto strega Anziana e capo della sua famiglia, Hazel ha già abbastanza lavoro da fare nel tentativo di impedire che la comunità stregata si disgreghi dopo la fine della guerra. Bramare il padre biologico di suo figlio adottivo è l’ultima cosa di cui ha bisogno. Soprattutto dato che il padre in questione è un demone appena fuggito di prigione e dalla moralità discutibile. Una strega e madre responsabile ne starebbe lontana. Ma Hazel ha fatto la brava tanto a lungo… Forse è giunto il momento di fare un po’ la birbante.

Sensualità demoniaca

Hat noch jemand zufällig aus Versehen einen Dämon in die Ehe gelockt? Niemand sonst? Nur ich? Mist. Verheiratet zu sein ist die Hölle. Das dachte ich jedenfalls bis zu jener Nacht, in der ein unverschämt heißer Dämon in meiner Wohnung auftauchte, um mich in die echte Hölle zu schleppen – als seine Frau. Ehrlich gesagt wäre mir ja eine Zahnwurzelbehandlung ohne Betäubung lieber als irgendjemanden zu heiraten, obendrein einen griesgrämigen – wenn auch verdammt attraktiven – Dämon. Aber leider bin ich an den Vertrag gebunden, den ich als dussliger Teenager mit Azazel abschloss … in einer Séance, die aus dem Ruder lief. Eigentlich sollte es nur ein Spaß mit meiner besten Freundin sein, aber ehe ich mich versah, hatte ich offenbar einen Dämon dazu verpflichtet, mich zu heiraten, wenn ich mit 25 noch Single wäre. Ich hatte das total vergessen. Er hingegen so gar nicht. Und jetzt ist er hier, um mich als Braut einzufordern. Wir mögen zwar beide der Meinung sein, dass dieser Witz von einer Ehe verdammt unbequem ist, aber eines treibt mich noch mehr auf die Palme als die Vorstellung, verheiratet zu sein: ignoriert zu werden. Als mein dämonischer Gemahl wider Willen mich also am anderen Ende seines höllischen Anwesens einlagern will wie bestellt und nicht abgeholt, nehme ich mir vor, ihm erst recht so richtig unbequem zu werden. Unser Kräftemessen erweist sich als unerwartet amüsant, bis ich auf eine Seele stoße, die nichts in der Hölle zu suchen hat, blindlings in eine dämonische Familienfehde stolpere … und die, ähm, anregenden Wortgefechte zwischen mir und Azazel so heiß werden, dass ich mir die Finger verbrennen könnte – oder mein Herz. Infernal Covenant: Zur Hölle mit der Liebe ist der erste Band in einer neuen Paranormal Romance-Reihe von Nadine Mutas. Wenn du Geschichten liebst, in denen die Protas sich lustig zankend verbal an die Gurgel gehen, während die Anziehungskraft zwischen ihnen lautstark knistert, dann schnapp dir dieses Buch!

Infernal Covenant: Zur Hölle mit der Liebe

Ihre letzte Hoffnung darauf, ihre Schwester zu finden, ist ein respektloser Dämon – falls sie ihn kontrollieren kann ... Hexe Merle MacKenna braucht einen charmant provokanten Dämon ungefähr so dringend wie ein Loch im Kopf. Und dennoch hat sie nun einen ebenso nervigen wie attraktiven Dämon mit krimineller Vergangenheit an sich gebunden, damit er ihre entführte Schwester findet. Falls er nicht vorher Merle um den Verstand bringt. Oder noch schlimmer – ihr Herz stiehlt ... Rhun hat im magischen Gefängnis der Schatten jegliche Rücksicht auf andere Leute verloren. Als Merle ihn also losbindet, damit er ihr hilft, ist sein Plan recht simpel: die sexy Hexe verführen, ihre Magie stehlen, sodass sie ihn nicht mehr in die Schatten bannen kann, und dann frohgemut seines Weges gehen. Sehr zu seinem Entsetzen weist sein Plan jedoch einen fatalen Fehler auf – die Hexe bringt ihn dazu, dass er sie behalten möchte. Und das wäre eine Katastrophe.

Ein Roman von Blut und Magie

Dämonische Verführung

Warnhinweis: Beinhaltet eine superstarke Heldin, die mit frechen Sprüchen und Schimpfwörtern um sich wirft, einen Dämonenhelden, der ebenso stur entschlossen versucht das Herz seiner Auserwählten zu gewinnen, wie er zum Dahinschmelzen hinreißend ist, und ganz viele Momente zum Totlachen sowie heiße Szenen. Sollte mit Vorsicht und einem kalten Getränk genossen werden. Er wird ihr zeigen, dass die Dunkle Seite mehr zu bieten hat als nur Kekse… Ein Angriff mit mysteriöser Schwarzer Magie verwandelt die Hexe Lily Murray in genau das, was sie ihr Leben lang bekämpft hat—einen Dämon. Während sie mit ihren neuen dunklen Instinkten hadert und verzweifelt versucht, ihre Angehörigen nicht zu töten, erhält sie unabsichtlich einen Beschützer in einem Dämon ihrer Spezies. Er hilft ihr nur zu gern und zeigt ihr, wo es lang geht. Er ist auch eindeutig zu umwerfend für ihren Geschmack. Alek Kuznetsov hat endlich die perfekte Gefährtin gefunden: wunderschön, klug, lustig, und natürlich von seiner Spezies der pranagraha-Dämonen. Das einzige Problem: Sie will sich wieder in eine Hexe zurückverwandeln, und wenn sie das tut, kann er sie nicht als seine Gefährtin nehmen. Die Lösung: Während er anbietet, ihr dabei zu helfen, einen Umkehrzauber zu finden, macht er sich in Wirklichkeit daran, sie davon zu überzeugen, dass es sich nicht nur wegen der Kekse lohnt auf der Dunklen Seite zu bleiben.
