BOOK REVIEW - SUCCUBUS ON TOP by RICHELLE MEAD - GEORGINA KINCAID # 2

By : Richelle Mead
Published By : Kensington Books
Released : Available Now
Details : Paperback from library, 314 Pages

RATING: 4.5 SETH STARS!!

Georgina Kincaid's job sucks. Literally.Love hurts, and no one knows it better than Georgina Kincaid. If she so much as kisses Seth Mortensen, the shy, sexy, incredibly gifted Seattle writer she's been dating, she'll drain his life force. Georgina is a succubus-a demon who draws her power from other men's pleasure. Admittedly, the shapeshifting and immortality perks are terrific, and yes, Georgina did choose to join the ranks of hell centuries ago. But it seems completely unfair that a she-demon whose purpose is seduction can't get hot and heavy with the one mortal who knows and accepts her for who she is.


It's not just her personal life that's in chaos. Doug, Georgina's co-worker at a local bookstore, has been exhibiting bizarre behavior, and Georgina suspects that something far more demonic than double espressos is at work. She could use help finding out, but Bastien, an irresistibly charming incubus and her best immortal friend, is preoccupied with corrupting an ultra-conservative talk radio star-and giving Georgina some highly distracting come-hither vibes. Georgina is going to have to work solo on this one-and fast because soon, Doug's life won't be the only one on the line.

BOOK REVIEW:



Old friend, incubus , Bastien Moreau comes knocking and needs Georgina’s help with Dana Dailey. He has overstepped the mark with his superiors and needs to save his ass from being relocated. Dana Dailey is his target.


Georgina is juggling her new relationship with Seth and all the difficulties that come with it, Doug is acting over caffeinated and the bookstore has a few issues that need attention.


Georgina wants to show Seth how she feels about him, although her mind was in the right place, her body isn’t , it almost overrides the special gift she has for Seth.


Seth is just an exceptional guy , his heart is swollen for Georgina , he keeps letting her off when she stuffs up. Their relationship is a most unique one , normal rules don’t apply. They can’t.


Georgina is introduced to Seth’s family , a rare glimpse of normality for her, that gives her a few moments of honest fun and innocence before she gets swept back into her life of sexually preying for survival, batting for Team Hell.


‘Nocturnal Admission’, Doug’s band has leapt suddenly into the popularity stratosphere and there is some interesting stuff being handed around behind the scenes.


Georgina finds herself working overtime keeping friends, her personal life and the bookstore on track and none of it is easy. Desire is smoking hot between Seth and Georgina. Not even a kiss can be shared without the fear of taking away some of his life energy. Frustrated..much.... or can this be worked around?


Bastien is being demanding with Georgina’s time and her good friend Doug is acting like a lunatic . Something has to give.


I have to admit I was not that interested in the Dana Dailey , take down, but I really enjoyed Succubus On Top.


It’s quite refreshing when an author has to think of other ways for a couple to have a relationship when the norm just works against them.


The Georgina Kincaid series are definitely page turners. Richelle has no inhibitions with her writing. I have read Succubus Dreams, book 3..... definitely no inhibitions.
