Synopsis

Claire McMullen is just an ordinary woman -- until you look at her long, beautiful bright-red hair. She has a job she hates, a roommate she tolerates, and she spends her weekend nights bar-hopping, looking for her "Mr. Right." One cold, rainy night she meets Samael -- tall, dark, handsome and rich -- and a romance blossoms. Claire thinks she may have found her soulmate -- until Samael informs Claire that he's actually a demon.

Can Claire trust a demon's claims of true love-or is he just plotting after her immortal soul? Can a demon even feel true love, and if so...

What are the consequences of such a love for both Hell and Heaven?

About this title

From the Author:

"Quirky, funny, frightening, and romantic, THE DEMON'S WIFE would have been right at home in that paragon of pulp magazines, John Campbell's UNKNOWN (and there is no higher praise for fantasy). Reminiscent of John Collier, Thorne Smith, and Roald Dahl at their most wicked, the tale turns on a dime from charming to chilling as it asks the eternal question, 'How far are we willing to go for love?'" -- Chet Williamson

"The Demon's Wife is one of the most entertaining novels I have read this year. There are scenes in this book that will have you at turns laughing out loud then wide eyed at the terror Hautala throws at you. Readers will find themselves falling in love with Claire, admiring her strength, rooting for her in times of trouble, and hoping the relationship will work out. All in all, The Demon's Wife is a damn fine novel."  --  horrorworld.com
