Venari

Demonic Disciples

by Magnolia Montgomery

Earth. Each time I step foot in this realm it reeks of desperation and greed. Where I come from, one is a weakness, the other a Mortal sin. Yet here, they intermingle and inspire a vicious cycle. Here, they're fueled by insidious manipulation. Shifters are a nefarious race that delights in the upset of balance in the mortal realm by creating chaos with neutrality. My brothers and I have been tasked with hunting these Shifters to protect and restore the universal balance. Venari. My name means Hunt, and it's what I was born to do. For centuries I've hunted Shifters, tracking them in any form they take, sparing no mercy in my quest. Legend says that a demon's mission is complete when their fated mate is found and bonded during the next blood moon. In all my years, in all my travels, I've never found a trace to suggest my mate exists. Until a trail leads me to Memphis. Southern hospitality and shifter threats aren't the only things vying for my attention here. Miss Adelaide Morgan fell into my arms, literally, and I'll move heaven and earth to get her back there again. Soon.

About the author

Magnolia Montgomery is a Midwestern girl who always fancied herself a Southern Belle. She grew up reading romance novels and, after years of dreaming about it, has finally written her debut novella. She lives in the Midwest with her husband and three fur babies. When she's not writing, she can be found daydreaming about sexy heroes and sassy heroines in the pool, cozying up with Jude her American shorthair cat, Ava the lab/pit mix and Austen the golden retriever with a good book, or out in nature trying to get some good pictures and inspiration.

This is the second book I have read in the Demonic Discipline series and am enjoying them. Venari is the son of Lucifer. He and his brothers are the Prince of Hell and work for the royal legion. All of his brothers have found their mates. He is the only one left. His job is to hunt shifters in the earth realm. He is greed.
Adelaide is a psychology PHD candidate. Her family was murdered a few years ago during a home invasion. She is the demons mate.
This is a great read. The chemistry is off the charts between these two. Who knew a demon could be as hot as Venari. He is possessive, protective and obsessed with his mate. Adelaide is haunted by her past. Can she accept a demon/snake shifter as a mate? What would her future look like?.

Venari (H) moves between Hell and Earth tracking his shifter quarry, when he receives word that a purgatorian nemesis who got away is in Memphis. He’s begun to wonder if he’ll ever find his own mate now that all his brothers have found their loves on Earth but is still surprised to scent Adelaide (h) as his. Adelaide finds herself drawn to Venari, even when he displays a violent side to protect her given her traumatic past. But Venari’s mission may have put a target on Adelaide’s back, and he hasn’t even tried to convince her what she means to him. Hot and steamy human-demon romance with a side of danger.

I loved Venari Demonic Disciples. Venari just wants to find his mate. The last of his brothers to be single he’s ready for his future. Adelaide isn’t sure about her new roommate but it’s affordable for a college student. She lost her parents and really has no one. Meeting Venari changes something in her, but he has secrets. Before Venari can tell Adelaide the truth, a shifter he has been chasing comes back into play. This was a great storyline and I loved the characters. This was a great series. I would definitely recommend this book and the series.

I have loved every single novella I've read in this series! So much fun for this Halloween season!

Venari and Adelaide's story is fast-paced, and steamy.

I loved Venari's protective side. Well Adelaide is his mate, and he may have put her in danger, so...

If you haven't jumped in yet, I recommend Venari and the other stories!

Ms. Montgomery is a new to me author, and I will be checking out her other works.

Venari was starting to give up hope of finding his mate, like his brothers had, u til he meets Adalaide. But convicing her, she's his mate is just the start. Well written steamy demon/human fated mates romance.

A well written quick read between a demon and a college student who had experienced something no person should experience. A little intrigue, some violence and lots of heat.

“My brothers and I are in this until we find our fated mate and bond under the next blood moon. They’ve each found their mate, bonded, and retired from the Royal Legion.”
