About this book

Did I swipe right on the wrong guy?

This is a question Maeve has no choice but to ask herself as her boyfriend’s sins pile up.

Besides the usual dirty socks on the floor, the dishes left sitting beside the sink, and having to clean up after him like his damned mother, now he’s brought home three solid black puppies. At the request of his boss, who’s been holding a promotion over his head since the beginning of their relationship.

So fine. She’ll watch the puppies. They are pretty cute, after all.

…If she can ignore the way they guard the bedroom door with glowing red eyes.

What’s not cute? Galen’s shirts appearing in the hamper with the same two tears along the shoulder blades, the late-night walks, and the weird chanting in the middle of the living room.

Determined to get to the bottom of her boyfriend’s sudden weirdness, Maeve concocts a plan, a series of tests to figure out what the hell Galen is exactly.

Vampire? Werewolf? Something from Hell itself?

She’s damned well going to find out, even if she has to use all the salt in the pantry.

Is Maeve right to lead her own investigation into her boyfriend’s weird antics? Get in on this silly adventure and learn How Not to Date a Demon.

I had seen these covers and knew I needed to read these cute stories! I used this as a way to exercise on the bike, where I could sit and read and not be disturbed. I enjoyed this cute story with had some nice touches of steam and humor. Can I say how much I loved the puppies?!?! I wanted a reunion with them though at the end after everything was revealed and they were doing their job down in Hell haha. I enjoyed the laughs we got from Maeve and her trials trying to figure out what Galen was...

OMG I so loved this story! The characters, the banter, the story, all of it was amazing!!! Oooh and the sexy parts... Yum! also had me laughing my butt off at the antics Maeve and her boyfriend, Galen, are now living together but she keeps waking up in the middle of the night which is very unusual for her. She sees the puppies have red eyes or is she dreaming? His shirts have long gashes in them by his shoulder blades. Her imagination runs wild so she decides she needs to find out if he's a...

This was a fast paced cute read.

This was a fast paced cute read. It has light degradation, switch play. With a bubble gum romantic comedy feel. Our fmc believes her boyfriend is something other worldly. The first half of the book is her discovering all of the weird things he’s doing and convincing herself that he’s just under a lot of stress. Not even gonna lie I mostly kept reading for the demon puppies🥰. The first half of the book felt a bit long winded and repetitive. It took out fmc a long while to figure our what her bf...

This book was so much fun!! I love monster romance books that’s aren’t always filled with heartache and drama. This one was light and funny with the obvious romance and spice. What would you do if you thought your boyfriend of over a year was acting funny and thinking he might be hiding something from you? This is what we find out in this book. It takes you on a journey of a woman seeking the answers to why her boyfriend is acting strange. Coming to the conclusion that he might be an...
