Jackie Kessler - The Road to Hell

Last week I was lucky enough to win an ARC of the second book in the Hell On Earth series, and yesterday I finished reading. (I was so tempted to toss aside Rebel Fay to read this, but I managed to resist. But it was hard! And I love Barb & JC Hendee!)
Anyway, I loved Hell’s Belles, the first book, and was somewhat overly excited at finding out what Jesse did next, whilst at the same time worried that Road wouldn’t be quite as good. I needn’t have worried – former succubus-turned mortal exotic dancer Jesse is back in all her acid-tongued glory. And being mortal hasn’t made her life any less complicated. Her boyfriend doesn’t really approve of her dancing career, demons are threatening her wherever she goes and it seems everyone wants her back in Hell. Throw in the wickedly seductive incubus Daun and a cherub trying hard to become a succubus and you’ve got (wait for it) one Hell of a book.
Reasons why Road is just as good, if not better than, Belles;
