“It is our pleasure to inform you that you have been granted a place at Vice College for Young Demons… It is our duty to remind all students that your attendance is government mandated and enforced.”
Vice College for Young Demons; It’s beautiful, elitist, and filled to the brim with other demons Lilith’s age. All of them are stuck there waiting for the ten seconds of agony, called the Showing, that will sort them into one of the seven castes. And they’re all praying that they aren’t one of the unlucky few destined to be one of the powerless Unshown.
But when Lilith’s Showing happens, the crystal that appears on her body marks her as a degenerate Lust demon. And the icing on the cake? She grows horns.
Demons don't grow horns. It's supposed to just be a myth. But Lilith has, and in doing so she's caught the eye of some powerful people who want her dead. Fortunately, she's also got the attention of the Strange God, the demonic deity, and he's decided to appoint seven men to protect her...
If she can find them first....
This is an 18+ Reverse Harem Novel, Book 1 of 4 in the Vice College for Young Demons series.

I enjoyed this book so much that I couldn't put it down, found the sequel (ditto), then read them both all over again. It's hard to pick just a few things that I liked about this book. It was well-written, with a minimum of typos (it's a British author, I'm American, so maybe I just don't know how Brits should place their commas), and an engaging cast of characters. The pacing was fast, but with plenty of descriptions of people and places. The length of the book was longer than most, but...

I have come to really dislike the word whilst. It is an unusual word and its used a lot. Like a lot lot. That fact is reflected in the writing in general. The writing doesn't feel polished, its not bad and seems mostly correct, it just feels a little amateur. The plot felt a little shallow. There was a depth of emotional connection that was missing. I didn't know why I would care but the plot was entertaining. The characters were not stellar but not bad. They seemed unique enough to tell them...

With so many academy books flooding the market right now this book was so refreshing and had the length to really allow you to get to know the mc and pull you in to her struggles and daily life. The author did a great job making each of the guys different and with seven of them a huge undertaking. Great job! My only issue with the book besides some minor editing which was easy to overlook was the time skipped around and yet things that are left unresolved went months before that just didn't...

This was pretty good, i should have resd them with british accents in my head and maybe it would have been evern better since they are technically in Britain. A lot of the reviews talked about her being immature- i dont think she was, shes just a college student. But i dont like that her first times with some of the guys have to involve kink, like i feel like thats something you ease into and why are they so kinky its weird. And for a lust demon- suprisingly few spice scenes. And the twist at...

Holy cow! I'm very stingy with my five stars but this deserved every one of them. The story line, the depth of the characters, the development of them, the world building is all on point. Nice amount of steam (which is totally believable) and relationship development. It didn't leave unanswered questions that didn't apply to any cliff hangers, at least not for me. And let me just talk about the emotions it evokes, there were times I wanted to cry with one of the characters or get angry. When an...
