Deborah Wilde is a global wanderer and hopeless romantic. After twelve years as a screenwriter, she was also a total cynic with a broken edit button, so, she jumped ship, started writing funny, sexy, urban fantasy and paranormal women’s fiction books, and never looked back.

She loves writing smart, flawed, wisecracking women who can solve a mystery, kick supernatural butt, banter with hot men, and still make time for their best female friend, because those were the women she grew up around and admired. Granted, her grandmother never had to kill a demon at her weekly friend lunches, but Deborah is pretty sure she could have.

Smart (ass) heroines. Epic magic. Red-hot romance.

I'm glad you're enjoying the books as much as I love writing them. <3 Book 6 does have a name but I'm a horrible person and I'm not sharing until I do the cover reveal much later this month.

As for the release date, it's most likely going to be March 1. But as a reward for making you all wait, there will also be a book 6.5 coming out probably in May, which will be a Leo standalone adventure.

“I was living in a CW teen soap as the sassy best friend without any foreseeable love interest in my storyline. It was time to get these two together already so I could star in my own spin-off.”
Deborah Wilde, The Unlikeable Demon Hunter: Need

“Breathing is an addiction. But once you’ve stopped for an hour, it’s reasonably easy to quit forever.”
Deborah Wilde, The Unlikeable Demon Hunter

“Even though his ass extended past the seat, it was so rock hard that it didn’t droop over the sides. I checked twice to make sure.”
Deborah Wilde, The Unlikeable Demon Hunter
