BOOK REVIEW: Brimstone Kiss by Carole Nelson Douglas
Growing up on Nancy Drew stories, I used to love the mystery
paperbacks. As I grew, I wanted the same mystery novels but with some pizzazz...
How about a PI who happens to be a paranormal investigator and a hot ex-FBI,
some sizzling romance and a horde of supernatural beings right out of a horror
story? Now that’s what I’m talking about!
Paranormal investigator Delilah Street – in her quest to
identify the long-buried embracing skeletons she and sexy ex-FBI agent Ricardo
Montoya discovered – has to deal with a lecherous vampire, a ghoulish producer,
celebrity zombies from classic films, a mysterious albino rock star who bestows
addictive kisses on his groupies, and a dead girl in her mirror – and those are
just her clients!
After the Millennium Revelation, Las Vegas is teeming with
supernaturals and run by a werewolf mob, but even the unhumans can’t conceive
of what Delilah discovers hidden under the city’s damnable desert sands: an
unspeakably powerful evil rooted in ancient Egypt.
I will give you all you eager beavers out there a sneak peek
that comes toward the end of this novel: Delilah is off to save Ricardo when he
is kidnapped by the evil pharaohs of ancient Egypt with the help of some of her
supernatural sidekicks.
A rip-roaring read, this was one of the few novels I couldn’t
put down even for a nanosecond! For Nancy Drew lovers who crave that
all-grown-up spice, read this and I bet you won’t be disappointed.
