Calling Chaos (Demon Bound Book 3) by Grae Bryan


Calling Chaos is the 3rd book in the Demon Bound series by Grae Bryan. You can expect a twink/twink opposites attract pairing with plenty of the crazy you'd expect from a demon named Chaos.


From the blurb:

Cooper didn’t mean to summon a demon. He may be a hacker for the Mafia, but he’s not exactly brave or adventurous by nature. He was only trying to do a small, easy job for his terrifying boss and then get back to not leaving the house for days on end. Only now that the demon’s here, promising to be Cooper’s friend for as long as he needs one, Cooper might just be lonely enough to let him.

Chaos knew it was finally his time to get summoned. No more being stuck in the boring Void, no more hanging out with the same three dull demons. It’s time for madness and mayhem and answering to no one but himself. Except Chaos didn’t expect his newest summoner to be quite so…timid. And sweet. And willing to cater to every single one of Chaos’s many wants and whims. Maybe it wouldn’t hurt to stick around for an eternity or two.


Now Chaos just needs to convince his new friend that it really isn’t all that scary to be mated to a demon, even one who loves to play with fire.

Calling Chaos is a heated MM paranormal romance. It feature a lonely, socially anxious hacker and the wily, wicked, and slightly feral demon who wants to play with him forever. It also contains “it’s just practice” bedroom lessons, Mafia meetings gone awry, and the joys of stealing your not-boyfriend’s hoodies.

Gahhh! I loved Cooper and Chaos so much!! I think they might be my favorite couple of the series, but I'm holding out final judgement until we get Nightmare's book. I have a feeling I am going to really like theirs as well. In fact, I've truly enjoyed all the couples in this demon series by Grae Bryan so far.

Chaos was a demon who 100% lives up to his namesake. Honestly, I adored him. He comes to Earth all prepared to have been summoned by some macho power hungry AH, and instead finds himself face to face with sweet and shy Cooper. Almost immediately Chaos knew this human was different than one's he met before, and it didn't take him long to also decide that Cooper was going to be his. He just had to convince Cooper of that fact.

It was sweet how Cooper slowly came more out of his shell with Chaos by his side. He's definitely still an introvert, but he doesn't feel so anxious when Chaos is the one pushing him out of his comfort zone. Chaos makes him feel special. He takes care of him in his own demonic way and Cooper does the same for him. Cooper never tries to force or control Chaos in any way. He gives Chaos the chance to be himself while also helping to guide him along the way. That doesn't mean that Chaos doesn't still get up to plenty of hilarious shenanigans.

It was interesting seeing things go down that we already knew about, but from a different perspective. There were also plenty of cameos from the past two couples in this series. We even get a small "conversation" with Nightmare!! I am so excited for his story next!


SNik's review:

Third in series (Demon Bound), best if read in order. Paranormal. Close proximity. Opposites attract. Dual POV. Heed content warnings. 

Cooper is a hacker for his mafia family but seriously introverted with no friends to speak of when he accidentally summons a demon. Chaos is a demon ready to be summoned again and wanting to stay away from the void he decides that Cooper will make a fine mate, not realizing that he will actually fall for the man he calls “puppy”. 

This story was such an entertaining read and these opposites were actually so sweet together. Both Cooper and Chaos accept each other as they are, no expectations, not bothered by the needed quiet or violence, and super steamy when they ramp up their relationship under the guise of “practicing”. The protectiveness and cherishing that Chaos does towards Cooper is swoony and Cooper’s vulnerability but secret happiness with Chaos is also something special. Absolutely loved these two together.
