Description: Dating a demon has its advantages, like helping deliver souls to Hell. Wait...what Katie’s world has been turned upside down. She's fallen for Josh—despite the fact that he’s a demon from Hell. Wes is finally out of her system and her life. Convinced she can change Josh, she sets out to make him a better person, only to find out things aren’t as simple as she’d originally thought. For one thing, Josh has Katie help him deliver souls to Hell, and she kind of likes it. And to top it off, other more powerful demons are battling for her soul, and revelations from the past could change the course of her life forever.

Dealing With Devils is the sequel to The Appeal Of Evil by Pembroke Sinclair, and this follow-up was so great. There will spoilers for the first book! 

This sequel was really unique. Usually when we have a protagonist caught up in a battle between good and evil, she usually chooses good. Katie chooses evil- I think that's really refreshing! In this sequel, we see Katie and the wonderful Josh go about their duties from Hell. We get to meet Lucifer, which was really cool. I hope that we get more Lucifer because I found that even though those scenes were super cool, they were fairly underwhelming. 

There are a lot of really cool discoveries and twists that we make the plot much richer. There is a lot of potential with one of the discoveries! There are definitely lots of elements that make the plot and storyline more exciting and richer than the first book. There is some backstory and legends that are told by Lucifer which was awesome. 

 **(Spoiler: it's that fact that Katie is a reincarnation of Lilith. That's so cool! I can't wait to see her explore the powers, and the pros and cons of being Lilith).** 

Since Wes wasn't in the book that much, and since Katie has made her decision very blatant, there was no love triangle nonsense! Which again, is just very refreshing. I also don't really like Wes so maybe that's why I liked this book that much more. Braden's character underwent a lot of changes for me. He went from just some annoying side character to someone who- what?- is kind of cooler than Josh? The hell hierarchy stuff is also pretty cool.

Overall, Dealing With Devils, was a satisfying sequel with a lot more discoveries and added elements that made the plot much richer than the first book. If the liked the first book, this one will not disappoint!
