Demon Heat (City of Sinners Book 2)

This is the solidly researched and cleverly written City of Sinners, Book Two, by Noah Harris, which is turning out to be a brave, dark, twisted, genre-busting series. Yes, it’s an M/M Romance, it’s also historical, erotic and paranormal, but more than that, it’s a complex occult offering, of the kind I would normally only expect to see from the likes of Stephen King. But this has so much more to offer and the resulting creative, but edgy feel is only a small part of its appeal.Demon Heat is the continuation of Richard Miller's roller coaster journey so, although not critical, if you haven’t read book one, Darkest Desires, I would recommend it. Set in 1977 in New York City, amidst the gay community, the depth of research Noah has undertaken, to get the ethos of the era is spot on and awesome. It feels right, incorporating a lot of historical accuracy and detail from that time. The characters, which were fully developed in book one, are expanded further in book two. Richard and Tyrone are still together though their relationship has issues, as does Richard’s career as a nude model. We revisit Steve and Adam, with Steve offering a bit of humor. We find out what happened to Paco after the Everard Bathhouse fire. We’re also introduced to Peter who, like Richard, is new to the city and struggling to find his feet. Cue some hot BDSM scenes. The Knowledge Demon makes a re-appearance as does Anton, head of the power hungry Cult. We are also introduced to a new demon, the Taurus Demon, who has a significant role to play. The occultists are still at large and intent on gaining power through the summoning of The Hooded One, the demon who needs to complete his possession of Richard in order to cross over to this world and so give them the power they crave.As with book one, the story revolves around Richard’s relationships, his life in the gay community, and his fight against the occult. You’ll need an open mind to read this dark story as some scenes deal with mature themes, but if you’re Okay with the occult, erotic sex, and drug use, as an integral, but not gratuitous, part of a storyline, then you won’t be able to put this down. There are a complex set of interlinked plots which merge together, at significant points in the story, making this a very satisfying and exciting read from start to finish. There’s a lot going on but at no time is it confusing. Noah gives us enough information to understand the plot and yet keep us guessing at the outcome. The ending ties up a good many of the plot themes but, I warn you, not all. It’s a HFN and there’ll be another book in the series. What happens to the evil Anton and his cult? What of Richard’s relationship with Tyrone? I’m waiting with baited breath for book three and, though I’m not usually a fan of long series, this is one I’d love to see continue.****I would like to thank the author for the privilege and opportunity of reading this ARC. My review is an honest opinion of the book****

All I can say this author is great loved the book

I am a fan of Noah Harris I have read every book he's written and published but he still manages to surprise me! That is why I'm a fan you can never predict the theme only that they will be amazing. This book and the first book in the City of sinners series are out of my comfort zone but because of the author I read it. What a shock because I loved the first book and the second I think is better!The research that has gone into this book puts you in the seventies. The descriptive writing makes it so the reader can almost feel what the characters feel, hear what they hear and smell what they smell. Richard and Tyrone the two main characters are alive on every page and you follow them, every step they take. The plot keeps you gripped and on the edge of the seat. The scenes with the demon world are hot and steamy just so well written. There are tense moments that make you keep turning the page this author has just proved again he can write anything! If you like a walk on the wild side then join this author on this journey. I can't wait for book three.I voluntarily reviewed an advanced readers copy of this book.

As always Noah doesn't disappoint with his paranormal thrillers. Tyrone and Richard need to find a way to rid themselves of the demons which are plaguing them. Richard is drawn towards them as a way to relieve his sexual urges and this is hurting his relationship with Tyrone. Will they find a solution to their problem or will Richard find himself dragged to the other side to be a sex slave to the Demons.A thrilling but also disturbing read that is very well written

I loved this second part of City of Sinners. This not normal the type of books I read. I was pleasantly surprised by the story line. The book is so well written (which should not be surprise for books book written by Noah). He tackles the coming together of different races, demons and cults. If you think this is not a book for you, just give it a try you will be surprised. I can't wait for the last book."I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book."
