Booklist

"A page-turning mix of romantic suspense and supernatural thriller."

Carolyn Crane, USA Today bestselling author

“What a rush! This sexy, intense page-turner swept me away!” a

Joe Alfano, Qwillery

"Worth the wait. An excellent addition to the ongoing narrative. The ending alone sold me on the book, but to tell you too much would be to give away the experience. As I finished the last page, I found myself already starting the countdown to the next in the series. (4.5 stars)"

Rysa Walker, author of the Delphi Trilogy

“Embracing The Demon is fun, sexy urban fantasy that will appeal to readers looking for a strong female lead. Dale Highland is kickass and snarky, the plot is dark and twisty, and the action sequences are top-notch.”

Nik Korpon, author of The Rebellion's Last Traitor

“Embracing The Demon is a thrilling, sexy, dangerous ride of a book. Count me as Team Dale, one hundred percent.”

Kathy MacMillan, author of Sword and Verse

"What a ride! This is stay-up-late-to-find-out-what-happens, then hide-under-the-covers-after-the-lights-are-out classic urban fantasy, with sexy, smart characters and a heroine you'll root for. If you like your fantasy a bit on the bloodthirsty side but still hunger for complex characters, this book is for you. (5 stars)"

Jodi Scaife, Fanbase Press

“other” resonates in the current political climate, yet is universal enough to feel timeless. The final paragraphs left my heart in my stomach, but I also need to know how Dale will face the latest revelation. Can she continue to embrace her humanity while facing the challenge of protecting the demons who look to her as Amara’s successor?”

About the Author

Beth Woodward has always had a love for the dark, the mysterious, and all things macabre. She blames her mother for this one: while other kids were watching cartoons, Beth and her mother were watching Unsolved Mysteries together every week. She was doomed from the beginning. At 12, she discovered the wonders of science fiction and fantasy when she read A Wrinkle in Time, which remains the most influential book of her life. Growing up, she was Meg Murray with a dash of Oscar the Grouch. She’s been writing fiction since she was six years old; as a cantankerous kid whose family moved often, the fictional characters she created became her friends. As an adult, she’s slightly more well adjusted, but she still withdraws into her head more often than is probably healthy.When she’s not writing, Beth volunteers at her local animal shelter, attends as many sci-fi/fantasy conventions as she can, and travels as much as time and money will allow. She lives in the Washington, DC, area with her husband and their three cats.
