Crown Me Dead: A Dark Fantasy Romance (Heartstring Duet)
Liv Zander
by Kinsley Adams
Lucifer’s defiant daughter. A fallen angel turned vampire. Two enemies bound by secrets, and a forbidden love that could redeem—or ruin—them both.
Do you know what it’s like to be Lucifer’s daughter? I mean, all I want is a nice apartment with southern exposure. A guy to rub my feet at the end of the night. Oh, and a job that doesn’t involve torturing souls for all eternity.
Unfortunately, escaping my infernal heritage isn’t as easy as moving to Earth and adopting a cat named Purrgatory. Not after someone took a pitchfork to my memories and scrambled them up real good. I can’t even remember how I got here.
I was this close to a normal life. Even found the guy who might want to rub my feet. But in the middle of our first date, he barges in. Rathiel, or Captain Bootlicker as I prefer to call him. My father’s right-hand man and a fallen angel turned vampire. One moment, I’m enjoying dessert, and the next, he’s hauling me out of the restaurant claiming my father wants me dead.
Rathiel calls it protective custody; I call it overbearing and obnoxious. He swears he’ll kill anyone who touches me, which is sweet in a terrifying, please-don’t-eat-my-date kind of way. I never asked for a guardian demon. But he’s determined to play hero, whether I like it or not. And unfortunately, I’m starting to love it.
Surviving my father is the hard part. But falling for the fallen angel might just be my undoing.
This adventure-packed story with vampires, demons, and Lucifer's daughter is perfect for readers who love: Scarred Heroine (emotionally and physically) Enemies to Lovers Slow Burn Romance Forced Proximity Touch Her and Die

Lily has been on Earth for ten years, staying under the radar, hiding from her father, Lucifer. Only scars remain of her wings, a reminder of her exile and his punishment. Her two jobs as a barista in a human coffee shop, and a bartender in a paranormal bar pay just enough to subsist. She keeps to herself, no relationships, minimal friends, because how do you explain that you are a celestial from hell? Now, she suddenly has two men in her life – one human, one vampire fallen one, and demons are...

Really liking this story so far! I don’t normally go for the vampire and shifter books, honestly I didn’t know this one involved all that until I got into it, but I love a good demon/angel trope. Rathiel and Lilly are cute, and it was interesting seeing their story unfold. Can’t wait to start #2 ) One person found this helpful

Can't wait till the second book comes out. Lily is a strong female character. There is a strong love interest. )

Kinsley takes us to Hell and back in this amazing story that will keep you on the edge of your seat. Although she takes us to a little darker place this time, she still infuses her humor to get us out of the darkness. I can't wait for the next book which is taking us all to Hell and a somewhat family reunion, lol. ) One person found this helpful

Slow burn in the best ways! This book is a roller-coaster of a ride. I thought it knew what I was getting into...I was not ready for the twists )
