info_outlineThe Queen of Hell herself is gracing the podcast this week 😈
Aurora Ascher is a paranormal romance author and lover of misunderstood monsters, redeemable anti-heroes, and epic happily-ever-afters.
We're talking all about Aurora's journey into Indie Romance, becoming a paranormal-fantasy romance Author, her trademark sense of humour that is just so addictive, and we OF COURSE talk all about the Hell Bent series and her Demon Boys. (Well, I gush endlessly about them and their fierce AF heroines in the series who you *definitely* want to be besties with)
Oh, and how this woman can literally do anything - including taking a Necromancer Demon who looks like an undead elf and have you blushing and batting your eyelids 😈
Meet Murmur and Suyin... our delightfully grumpy/grumpy pairing... Here's a little sneak peak at Aurora's upcoming book release 'Beauty and the Demon' - Book 5 in the Hell Bent series - available June 6th:
👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
In this story, he’s the villain, not the hero…
Murmur, the nefarious Necromancer, is losing his mind. His army of souls screams in his head, and his dreams are filled with bone-chilling visions of his approaching death.
But a villain always has a plan, and his will unleash a torrent of destruction unlike anything Hell has seen before… But for his plot to succeed, he requires one final ingredient: the blood of a certain headstrong witch, who quickly becomes a complication he never saw coming.
This heroine can rescue herself…
Suyin, leader of the Montreal coven, hides her dread beneath a tough exterior. Unusual abilities she can’t explain are taking over her life, and she’s haunted by ominous dreams.
Her fears are realized when she’s captured by a demon with bloodshot eyes and a scorpion tail. Murmur plans to leave her in his dungeon, but Suyin has no intention of making this easy for him.
Bargaining with demons is dangerous business, but she’ll do anything to survive.
Enemies may become lovers, but fate has other plans.
