How to steal a demon's heart and get away with it by Devi Letalis

An exiled demon. A murderous vampiress. Undead sheep. One fateful night. One bad decision. And suddenly, it’s not just hearts on the line — it’s the whole damn realm. Single father and mercenary Dante has hunted demons his whole life. From lowly fiends to undead sheep, his bizarre quests have tested his blade and his wit. A new job draws him into the orbit of the dangerously alluring vampiress Lariza and her enigmatic companion Layla, and Dante finds himself reluctantly allied with forces as unpredictable as the enemies they face. When his son is kidnapped, Dante’s buried past resurfaces, along with estranged family members who stir up conflicts he never imagined. Forced to team up with Lariza and Layla, Dante is dragged into a deadly clash with powerful demons, his sole focus fixed on saving his son, even if it means descending into hell itself. Yet even these battles pale beside the shadow of a greater threat—one that could turn rivals and allies alike into pawns. A dark urban fantasy thriller brimming with razor-sharp action, wicked humour, and unrelenting suspense—where ancient laws collide with modern horrors, and family ties may be the deadliest curse of all.
