Sunshine demon meets antisocial star-chaser destined to go insane… What could possibly go wrong?

Foras ‘Ro’ Cromwell is a demon who yearns to be a good person, hence the reason he’s currently in therapy. Unfortunately, his demonic urges include setting dumpsters on fire when he’s overwhelmed, stealing items that have no relevance to him, and a surprising new stalking.

He’s only interested in stalking one person, though. The elusive woman with shimmering silver hair.

Alorra Seren is a star-chaser. A dangerous truth she planned on taking to her grave, if only she didn’t excel at making terrible decisions. She’s as prickly as she is mysterious, and Ro wants nothing more than to uncover all of her secrets.

When Lor is blackmailed by people who want to use her for her abilities, Ro takes matters into his own fiery hands, landing himself in a heap of trouble. Now Lor has to decide between risking it all to save him, or protecting her secrets to save herself.

Sparks fly in this banter-filled paranormal romcom featuring a black cat FMC and golden retriever MMC, idiots to lovers, and bi4bi love in a queer-normative world. Mental health concerns and generational trauma play a significant role in this novel, and although there are emotional moments, it is overall light-hearted and fun with no third act breakup.

Amazon | Goodreads

Ro is a sunshine-y fire demon fighting his impulses and trying to be good person. Lor is a star-chaser in a tough spot who is determined not to form attachments because of the fate she believes awaits her as she gets older. Ro is immediately obsessed and determined to win Lor over, even it it means indulging his demonic side a little and stalking her (to figure her out and keep her safe in his mind).

Corina has done it again, the first book in the Chaotic Paranormals series, Love (Literally) Bites was a favorite earlier this year so this was definitely highly anticipated by me and it did not disappoint. I loved both Ro and Lor (to be fair it’s hard not to love Ro and his golden retriever tendencies). Though Ro is working on himself and trying to be a good person despite being a fire demon, Lor is beautifully complex and really grows the most over the story. Her concerns and the walls she has up regarding relationships and emotions are understandable, and it’s such a journey to see her working on them as she gets closer to Ro and he gets behind those walls.

Beautifully told, full of humor, a smattering of danger and plenty of spice, it’s a fantastic read.

Note: while this is the second book in the series, it can be read without reading the first book; however, I do recommend reading them in order because of an easter egg that occurs.

Stalking Not Required comes out May 5th, make sure to pick a copy of both it and Love (Literally) Bites!

Happy reading!
