So much for a quiet, normal life, indeed! This book is a thrilling ride from beginning to end, and I highly recommend it.
This story blends the supernatural with the deeply personal in a way that feels both grounded and epic. What starts as a quiet life quickly spirals into something much bigger, and the tension builds with each chapter. The relationship between Greg and Grace adds heart, while the looming forces of darkness keep the stakes high. If you like stories where spiritual warfare meets family drama, with ancient powers lurking just beyond the veil, this one definitely delivers.
This book was wild—in the best way possible. Demonic Ties pulls you in with creepy vibes, sinister secrets, and just the right amount of dark humor. One minute I was genuinely spooked, the next I was grinning at a character’s sharp remark or chaotic decision. It’s like a horror film and a supernatural soap opera had a baby—and I couldn’t look away. The demons are delightfully wicked, the twists keep coming, and the pace never lets up. If you love a story where things get strange, darker by the chapter, and more addictive with every page… this one’s for you. Just don’t read it in the dark (or alone). Loved it!
A compelling continuation filled with fatherhood, fallen angels, and freaky aunties from hell. Brother Greg’s spiritual saga just leveled up.
Authoritative yet emotional, this installment skillfully balances spiritual conflict with intimate human stakes. As ancient forces stir across the sea, the battle between good and evil bleeds into the couple’s personal journey, making for a compelling, high-stakes narrative that deepens both character arcs and the overarching mythology.
