Succubi Like It Hot by Jill Myles

Three and 1/2 stars

Book Summary

With a flirtatious new figure, her dream job as an archaeologist, and two gorgeous boyfriends to scratch her seductive Itch—an angel and a vampire—Jackie Brighton is totally getting the hang of life as a succubus.

Then her need for sex spirals out of control, and she accidentally knocks the pizza guy unconscious with her touch. Great, she’s cursed. Unfortunately, neither of her jealous lovers is exactly talking to her right now.

So after Jackie strikes a deal with a crafty demon, she and her best friend Remy take a cross-country road trip to deliver a cryptic message to the nation’s oldest succubus (who doesn’t look a day over eighteen.) Their journey gets weirder with every mile—demonic possession, a charming stalker, a deadly hotel room warning—but when they get to New Orleans, Jackie discovers a dangerous catch to her supernatural bargain. Someone wants her dead (again), but has she been sleeping with the enemy?

Or do the forces of evil think they’re some kind of match for a vixen in a miniskirt?

I didn't love this book as much as I loved the first book, Gentlemen Prefer Succubii. I think the story was a bit flat but still an okay read. The reason I didn't love it was because it had more Noah and less Zane.

Noah is an okay guy but he tends to be a bit on the too laid back-no let me not sugar coat this, BORING side. Okay, he's a hot ex angel that loves to have sex but that's about as far as his appeal goes with me. He's still pushing to be Jackie's #1 sex toy and while I can feel his pain, I just really don't think she'd pick him in the long run. I don't feel the chemistry between Noah and Jackie. Sure there's a lot of lust and he's a great guy. He's also her safest bet if she wants to stay alive. No matter what the circumstances are, I think he'll always come in 2nd. And 2nd always sucks. And Noah is mad as hell because he finally realizes that he may never be The One.

Zane is so much more interesting. He's worth every punishment for being bad. Each time he pops up in the story, there is always action and drama. On top of that, the chemistry between Jackie and Zane is off the chain, succubus or not. Sometimes he may have a shitty attitude and a "why the hell am I still with you" effect on Jackie. She loves him, she hates him, but she will always be drawn to him no matter what. Forget sensual seduction, vampire seduction has got to be the shit! No matter how much Noah begs and pleads to be first in line, Zane will always be #1 in Jackie's heart.

And Remy, I love her slutty ways, but in this book, they could have done without all the Joachim demon possession crap. The porno road trip was fun, but when Joachim took over, the story went down hill from there. Again, the only bright spot was Zane's appearance. Oh, and I can't forget about Luc(the incubus). I knew from the jump that it was something shady about him. He turned out to be a real psycho, but that made the story fun and readable again. But, I didn't like where it ended up. That storyline could have been a little bit better. If he had hooked up with Remy, that would have been a lot better.

Anyhoo, like I said, it was still a good read, but I still feel like I should have borrowed it so I could give it back. Maybe if I read it a second time, it would be better. Hmmm, I'll think about it. Still, it wasn't one of those super good books that you start and can't put down. It took me about four days to read it. Some parts were so uninteresting that I (being the book whore that I am)started another book before I finished it. So, as I'm writing this review, I'm already four chapters deep in some new drama.

PS...JM, more Zane, please!! Cover art-oh yeah!

Gentlemen Prefer Succubi by Jill Myles

Five Star Book

Book Summary
After a one-night stand with a fallen angel and a bite from a vampire, forgettable Jackie Brighton has been changed into a succubus. Now, she’s turned into a babe, needs sex to survive, and can puts people to sleep with a touch of her fingertips. Sounds great, right? Except for the fact that she’s caught between both the Heavenly and Infernal Host in an ancient turf-war, and now both sides want a piece of her…

How’s a girl supposed to save the world when the enemy is so hard to resist?

Where do I start? Let me just say this-this book was AWESOME! First of all, I love a book that can get me hooked just by reading the first page.

How does one wake up in a dumpster after have the most amazing, mind blowing, drunken sex of their life and not remember who it was with? Jackie Brighton has got to be the poster child for funky drunks who randomly give away the goodies! Or, maybe she's just a shameless slut who. LOL! And how embarrassing is it to be told about what you did, and how well you did it, by a perfect stranger? Who cares if that stranger is hotter than hot and makes you want to strip every time you see him? If that doesn't catch your eye, this book is not for you.


Jackie is an plain Jane who happens to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. After getting passed over for a position that she has worked her butt off to get, she decides to drink her troubles away and just completely forget about her boring life. The next day, she wakes up in a dumpster. Yeah, a dumpster. Of all places to wake up in, a dumpster. Her memory is fogging, but she does remember an awesome session of hot sex with a blue eyed lover and a mysterious rendezvous with a hot guy in a long leather jacket. The only problem is that she can't remember when or why she got tossed in the garbage or where either guy fits into last night's events.

Noah is the blue eyed boy toy from last night that fills her in on all the slutty things they did last night. He even looks as though he's ready for an instant replay. His tune changes when Jackie questions him about the other guy in the leather jacket. The handsome stranger that she thinks bit her and sucked her blood.

Think that's hard to swallow? Oh, and by the way, Noah's a fallen angel that has to have wild and hot sex every month with any random woman. At the time,Jackie just happened to be a very willing random woman. But after the sex was over, Noah says that he woke up to find Jackie gone.

Zane, the second piece to Jackie's drunken puzzle, is indeed a blood thirsty, but oh so sexy vampire who just happens to pop up everywhere Jackie is. He also can't seem to keep his hands to himself. It's just something about him that draws her to him, but she can't put her finger on it. Jackie's not sure if he's her other mystery lover or not. Oh, and by the way, Jackie is a succubus who must have sex every two days, and right about now, Zane, dangerous or not, is looking pretty damn hot.

I don't want to give too much away about this book because it's so worth a read. I highly recommend this book. Jill Myles did a wonderful job with this story. It gives a whole new twist to the vampire/fallen angel tale.
