Demon Hero romance books

Born of darkness, bound for damnation — and inconveniently, irrevocably hers.

The demon hero is temptation incarnate. A being of the infernal — incubus, fallen one, lord of some shadowed realm — he's dangerous, seductive, and operating by a morality that owes nothing to human rules. The thrill is the ultimate forbidden romance: a creature literally of darkness choosing the heroine, and the question of whether love can reach something that isn't supposed to have a soul.

He's a star of paranormal romance and romantic fantasy, from sexy incubus stories to epic battles between heaven and hell. He overlaps with the dark, morally gray, and supernatural types, and the romance often turns on redemption — or on the deliciously transgressive idea that she doesn't want him redeemed at all. The heat tends to run high.

For readers who love the forbidden, the infernal, and a hero who's dangerous to her very soul, the demon hero is wickedly irresistible.
