In Richelle Mead's Succubus Blues, Georgina Kincaid is a disillusioned Seattleite succubus. By night, she works for a demon, feeding off the life energy of mortal men. By day, she works in a book store and is an absolute fan of author Seth Mortensen.
The same day her favorite author is scheduled to visit the book store for a signing, Georgina engages in a (retrospectively) embarrassing conversation with a customer. It is not until much later that she realizes this shy and introverted man is Seth. They begin a tentative relationship but a number of things get in their way:
Thing 1
The addition of Roman, a dark and sexy man who is full of mystery and genuinely interested in Georgina - and has no difficulties showing it.
Thing 2
Even a kiss from Georgina will drain the life energy of either man.
Thing 3
Local paranormal beings are being killed - from the "good" (ex. angels) and the "bad" (ex. vampires) sides.
Thing 4
The killer is leaving notes for Georgina. Clues about who will be targeted next.
Thing 5
Did I mention both men are really, really sexy?
With an exciting plot, a good pace and well-rounded characters, this book was a delight to read. Somebody High Five Me!!!
