One Hell of a Brownie: Applecrest After Dark: Book One

When Bel Tenley dropped out of a grad school program she hated and her long-time boyfriend dumped her for losing focus on their future, she said good riddance. Back in their small hometown, she’s built a bookmobile business in just a few month's time, but she’s living over her parents’ garage, and she can’t shake the feeling of failure left over from quitting school. Oh, and her ex? He’s already engaged to the girl he told Bel not to worry about.

Bas hates his job in Hell as an office grunt, stirring up the sin of wrath in mortal lives. Under pressure to earn a promotion and follow in his father’s footsteps, he’s going through the motions until a cute bookseller accidentally summons him to a small mountain town where the locals spill tea with abandon. He knows he should try to get back to work, but this might be just the shakeup his life needs. One thing leads to another, and before long he’s feeling things demons don’t usually feel, and he’s not sure he ever wants to go home.

Now Bel’s ex is home for the holidays, and Hell is calling Bas back to work. As tension mounts and the things they aren’t saying to each other get louder and louder, can a bookseller and a wrath demon make it through Thanksgiving dinner to a happily ever after?

If you want cozy Stars Hollow vibes with a dash of demon hijinks and lots of spice, this is the small-town paranormal romance for you.
