The Sayle/Oliver duo is back with the first book in a 6-book series featuring demons in a whole new world finding the one's meant for them!
From the Demon's Obsession blurb:
A dryad's voice entices the soul of a demon, but will their blissful connection be enough to overcome their differences?
Dakata lives in the human realm where he manages a record company, not giving Fate a second thought--until he sees Silas and hears him sing. From that moment Dakata 's orderly life is thrown into chaos and his demon side won't listen to reason. And then their next meeting changes everything.
Silas loves his simple life. He has his tree in the forest, and his weekly venture into the city to sing. Only now, he's connected to a demon which brings risks no one could have foretold.
Although Silas and Dakata share a blissful bond, it brings its own challenges. There's a kidnapping, a rampaging demon, and the saucy tree that connects them all. Not to mention interference from family and friends.
What else could possibly go wrong?
Demon's Obsession is Book 1 of 5 in the Obsessions series, where demons learn a blissful one might not be what they want, but exactly what they need.

Demon's Obsession is the first in a new series featuring demon's finding their mates. I've always been a fan of these two authors writing both together and separate, and this book was no different. Dakata is a demon who enjoys the finer things in life. He makes lots of money, wears the most expensive clothes, and rarely does he have any free time. Because of this, looking for a partner is so low on his list of priorities it may as well not even be mentioned.
Silas is the complete opposite of his demon. As the blurb states, he likes things simple. He lives in the forest inside his bonded tree with minimal extra comforts. It's rare he leaves his forest, except for the one day a week he goes into town to sing and bring joy to others. Where Silas is found often thinking of others, Dakata mostly thinks of himself. Two opposites you wouldn't think would work, but Dakata's demon definitely has other plans.
I enjoyed this book and the whole premise around demons and their blissful bonding. It looks like fate is set to shake some things up in the demon worldview and I'm looking forward to who she will set her sights on next.
Angel's review:
Dakata and Silas couldn't be more different from each other yet they somehow figure out a way to make things work. I thought Silas's character was very unique, I thought the aspect of him being a dryad and being connected to his tree was really interesting. He is so passionate about singing and bringing joy to others, I found that very sweet. And he loves nature, he cares about each and every plant and tries to do his best to protect the nature surrounding him and his forest.
Dakata is more gruff than Silas is and is the grumpy to Silas's sunshine. I thought their relationship dynamic was interesting, they contrasted from each other, yet ended up being exactly what the other needed.
I found the pacing of the story didn't flow as smoothly as I was expecting, it felt a bit disjointed in certain spots. All in all an interesting start to a new series.
