Publisher's Summary

Mystery short, prequel to Must Love Demons, no romance.

Incubus Nicodemos Azertiran is one lucky demon. He has a best friend. A tiny but livable apartment. And a job at the infamous Marden’s Magic Emporium, a magic shop that only appears in the same place once, and only when a creature is in dire need.

Nico knows all about dire need.

He’s been booted from his legion because his magic runs to happily-ever-afters instead of one-night stands. Not good for lust demon business. Now at Marden’s, Nico is learning to go it on his own.

When Sir Galfridus, First Knight of the Wardens, shows up on Marden’s doorstep, Nico just knows he can help the handsome knight find the perfect item to save the day.

Only one problem. The next day Sir Galfridus turns up dead. Marden’s patrons never die. That’s the whole point. They get the item and save the day. So, what went wrong?

Nico’s about to find out.

In Fair Verona is the inspiration for The Magic Emporium, a multi-author series where each audiobook stands alone, but each one features an appearance by Marden’s Magic Emporium.

Everything a novella should be - a short juicy plot with well-drawn characters!

Nico is an unusual incubus demon: instead of inspiring and feeding off lust, his magic inspires true love in those around him. This has led to disastrous jobs at sex clubs and he currently works at Marden’s Magic Emporium. When star warden and self-obsessed pretty boy, Sir Galfridus, enters the Emporium, Nico gets embroiled in tracking down a crazed killer. This fun prequel novella introduces Marden’s and provides a taster to the wonderful Must Love Demons. Meghan Maslow is a brilliant urban fantasy / romance author and all her books are well worth a read. Nico is a decent, brave and clever demon and Darcy Stark really inhabits the character well in his audio narrations. This story has humour, the spice of danger, and wonderful world building that is effortlessly woven through the story. There is no sex scene in this novella but there are plenty in Must Love Demons.
