Summary

From New York Times best-selling author Julie Kenner, aka J. Kenner.

Kate Connor is your average, everyday mom with two kids, a husband, and one very big secret...she used to be a Demon Hunter for a secret arm of the Vatican. Now retired, she's more interested in the domestic than the demonic. So when she catches sight of a demon in Walmart, she tells herself it's some other Hunter's problem. But when that demon attacks her in her kitchen, retirement is no longer an option.

Now Kate has to kick a little demon butt, figure out why the creatures are trying to take her out and take over her hometown, and at the same time take care of her two-year-old, deal with a hormonal 14-year-old, get the family to Catholic mass on time, and try to keep her past a secret from her daughter and her husband.

She's a little out of practice, but hey...if she can juggle two kids and an impromptu dinner party, ridding the town of demons should be a piece of cake. Like the saying goes, Carpe Demon...and Kate intends to do just that.

Critic reviews

"This book, as crammed with events as any suburban mom's calendar, shows you what would happen if Buffy got married and kept her past a secret. It's a hoot." (Charlaine Harris, New York Times best-selling author)

Demon delights

Any additional comments?

I read this book ages ago and at the time it wasn't available on audiobook. So was pleasantly surprised to stumble across it . I can now say (after purchasing it) that I was right I really did in joy the book and the narration just adds to the fun too.

I love the way the main character has to fight a demon in her own kitchen while preparing a posh dinner for her husband client's. Yes, as you can probably guess this leads to some memorable and funny moments. None of her family knows she is or was a demon Hunter and she goes to extraordinary lengths to make sure her husband and two children don't find out, while staying safe.

It's light hearted,like the book cover/picture depicts, so no scary moments.... well unless you are a demon. Very enjoyable and I will certainly be getting the next book in the series.
