Review: Omens (Dark In You Series Book 6) by Suzanne Wright

Omens Omens by Suzanne Wright
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Imp and The Incubus

I listened to this book on audible, and as such, the review reflects that experience and includes information about the narration.

This book is part of the Dark In You series and has the same characters as earlier books, but focuses on different protagonists than the first few books. This book focuses on Khloe, Harper’s cousin and co-worker, who is an Imp and Keenan, an incubus who is one of Knox’s sentinels. They have been dancing round each other for a long time but they have both got serious fears about commitment and that has kept them apart. Finally, a bet tips them over the edge and they realise that they fallen into something they can’t control, for once.

It’s no secret that I love Suzanne Wright’s work and this has to be one of my favourite series. I find the idea of demons being bonded with their human side fascinating, add in the idea of an anchor to help balance the demon, often becoming almost like a sibling, and the obsession of the demon when it claims it’s mate, plus random powers and the politics of demon Lairs and you have a great mix for paranormal romance.

Khloe is a character that could drive some readers crazy. She’s quixotic and annoying (on purpose). However, she’s loyal, amusing and unassumingly powerful. Keenan is one of the more rigid characters in the series. He’s usually quite serious and has iron control on himself. Pushing those two characters together has always created fireworks and this book is no exception.

One thing I liked about this book was learning more about Khloe’s Lair, which is headed up by her and Harper’s grandmother, Joleen. It’s nice to visit with her family and find out more about their relationships with each other as imps are hilarious.

As always, Cat Doucette does a great job narrating. She captures the characters’ personalities really well and is engaging to listen to. The narration definitely adds to the enjoyment of the book, and I recommend listening to it instead of just reading it.

There were a few hints dropped about who might be in the next book and I’m intrigued as to how that might go, but I’ll have to wait patiently for it to come out to see if I’m right.
