Demon's Fire
by Emma Holly

The thrilling new erotic paranormal romance from the USA Today bestselling author

Desperate to escape the routine life her family has planned for her, Beth Philips joins an archeological dig with her long-time friend, Charles. The desert city of Bhamjran is the perfect place to explore desires—including Charles's secret yen for a Yamish demon. And as he and Beth are soon to discover, some Yama find humans just as irresistible.

Once a sexual captive, Prince Pahndir now exploits his talents as proprietor to the most successful brothel in Bhamjran. Hoping to find his own erotic fulfillment, he believes these two young humans may hold the key to his long-frustrated demon needs. His seductive ways lure Beth and Charles into a passionate triangle, one that will redefine pleasure's limits . . . and challenge all their understanding of what love means.



Emma Holly's Bio

Okay. About me. Born in New Jersey. Grew up in Baltimore. Moved to the midwest when the city I was living in started to get too scruffy. Always wanted to be a writer. (Never mind my pre-pubescent fantasies about being Batman's girlfriend. I didn't imagine I'd get paid for that.)

I wrote for a long time before I sold. Not too long, I guess, since I didn't give up, but long enough to appreciate how amazing it is that so many of my dreams are coming true. (Yes, you too can become a published author!)

My first sale was MENAGE to Black Lace. I wrote five erotic novels for them, a novella for Secrets, then sold my first historical romance to Berkley Jove. Until I worked on BEYOND INNOCENCE, I had no idea research could be enjoyable. I mean, why don't they give the fun history books with the pretty pictures to kids in high school? I could be so much less ignorant if I'd had them.

But no matter. Being ignorant is a good excuse to by more books. And learning is a pleasure, especially when you can turn it into a story someone will love.
