STAR STRUCK   Jesse James Dawson was once an ordinary man until he discovered that demons were real, and fighting them meant putting his own soul on the line. His new case is a beauty: Gretchen Keene, a Hollywood starlet who's become an unwitting catalyst in an all-out demon war. It's not her soul Jesse needs to protect, but the two-hundred-and-seventy-six others she's carting around--all the souls sold to spend just one night with the blonde bombshell. That's a lot of baggage, although it might explain her meteoric rise to fame. And it's all up for grabs by the demon world. All Jesse has to do is keep her safe until New Year's. Sounds easy. But darkness is casting a nasty shadow in the California sun--a new unseen enemy is closing in and leaving Jesse to wonder: how do you fight something you can't see coming?… (mere)

This series gets better and better. While not perfect, this was a very good book and an entertaining read. ( )

Near to the end of the previous book in the series, [b:A Shot in the Dark|9641411|A Shot in the Dark (Jesse James Dawson, #2)|K.A. Stewart|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1292630266s/9641411.jpg|14528839], Jesse made a sort-of deal with Axel the demon. Axel did Jesse a favour... and now Jesse owes Axel a favour in return. What Axel wants is for Jesse to go to Hollywood and protect Gretchen Keene, a Hollywood star who sold her soul, and as part of the deal has accumulated the hundreds of souls of men who sold theirs for a night with her. The timing couldn't be worse: it's just after Christmas, so he's expected to stay home with his family. His friendships are in disarray after the events of A Shot in the Dark, and he isn't sure if Marty is even speaking to him. And, worse, he's just found the empty box of a pregnancy test in the bin in the bathroom.

With this book, K.A. Stewart builds on the hints from the previous books that Something Big is going down in Hell; also, we learn more about Ivan, and the fact that Ivan hasn't exactly been straight with Jesse (nor has Viljo). We learn a bit more about demons, and we get a new 'monster' for Jesse to fight. There is no big duel against a demon in this book, but the pace doesn't suffer for that. There is also a slightly different take on people who sell their souls; hitherto, all of the soul-sellers have been rather foolish individuals who definitely got the worst end of the bargain. Is that always true?

It's clear that K.A. Stewart's intention is that the series is to continue, and the scope is probably going to get wider. Axel the demon is clearly going to be a key player. I shall be waiting for the next book to be published! ( )

Not sure if it's possible to love each one more than the last... can't wait for #4. ( )
