Publisher's Summary
I work for Lucifer. Only, it's not as cool and satanic as it sounds.
The truth is, I'm an admin assistant who applied for a job that sounded kind of interesting and ended up working for the Community of Species Government. I'm the only human in the office, and basically I ride herd on a team of rambunctious shifters and demons.
I also spend a lot of time avoiding Gideon Bailey, the demon I had a one-night stand with right before I took this job. He hates me, and I really want to avoid being murdered. But I've been offered a promotion that will mean working with him, so we're both going to have to get over it.
Plus, people are going missing. Pregnant people. And the word is that someone is dabbling in genetic experimentation. Putting a stop to that is more important than the sexual tension Gideon and I have been ignoring...isn't it?

Fantastic
I laughed out loud on so many occasions during this amazing book. I also shed a tear or two. Brilliantly narrated by Joel Leslie..

Oh boy.... Was pleasantly suprised from the start.
Hilarious read from start to finish. The characters are instantly relatable and fleshed out and the sex scenes will have you reaching for cold water. I have a few other audiobooks read by the samer guy, and he does a fantastic job capturing the uniquness of the characters and their passion in all the best voices :)

Enjoyable
This was my first Louisa Masters book and I enjoyed it. The interactions between the characters where funny and there were a lot of laugh out loud moments. There were a couple of gaps in the plot line at times and it was building up nicely but then it was suddenly the big finale and it was over, would have liked the storyline to be a little longer but overall a good listen and I’ll look to listen to others in the series now.
This was also my first Joel Leslie narration, I enjoyed his interpretation of the characters and I don’t think Sam’s drunkenness would have come across as funny has I just read it, he really brought the scene to life. I’m hoping he decides on Aidans Irish accent by his book, it was confusing as it seemed to start out Scottish, went to Northern Ireland and ended up a Dublin/midlands accent. Not noticeable to those not knowing the accents but confusing for those who do.

Compelling and fun!
I'm really picky when it comes to PNR books but the strong recommendations were hard to ignore on this one. Plus, I'm a big Joel Leslie fan.
I'm glad I waited until I was in the mood, because I'm pretty sure I'm going to want to binge the rest of the available audios now. Not only was this book interesting and easy to follow (the one thing that usually bugs me with PNR), but it was funny and had plenty of sizzling heat - without it being ONLY about the heat. Great characters and witty banter make this a fabulous story and of course Joel just brings it all to technicolour life in the audio!

So much fun! The Narration is brilliant!
Demons Do It Better is the first book in Louisa Masters' Hidden Species series. The series is now complete and all books now have an audio version too (all Whispersync'd). Despite my having her books in my TBR for ages, this is the first time I have read/listened to her work.
Using the magic of Whispersync I was able to enjoy both the talented writing and narration of this story. I really, really, really enjoyed it. Joel Leslie did an amazing job with the voices and really made the story and the characters come alive.
This story went in so many directions, seemingly not connected, until they were. Without any spoilers at all, I didn't see one such direction happening and I wonder if this scenario will be dealt with in later books.
I loved the entire cast in this one. Often (but not always) the paranormal characters are the more strait-laced side of the casting equation. Usually their advanced age (and living in many eras) gives them an air of dignity and wisdom, which doesn't let them play the clown. Not here!! I don't think I've come across such an eclectic mix of personalities. There is the very serious (although often playful) character, Gideon, ranging to the utter goofball, Alistair. In between is a range of personalities, but they all have wicked senses of humour, and I'm really looking forward to exploring them all in more detail in the other books.
Joel Leslie demonstrated his vocal talents in this one. Not only did each character have an extremely unique voice, including the female cast members (which often seems more difficult for a male narrator), but in most scenes there were multiple cast members, often talking very closely together. The sound of him flipping from voice to voice, including different accents, is pure art and talent. Not to mention his comedic timing, which made an already funny script, hilarious!
My only critique was the romance side of things. I wish there was a bit more communication between Sam and Gideon. There were a lot of holes where you just had to fill in the blanks. Their interactions go from a hot hookup, to Gideon treating Sam like shit when he finds out Sam is now working at CSG; to Gideon suddenly becoming protective of Sam when he joins his team.
Their romance builds up from there, and you can see it happening, I just would have liked them to talk a bit more. It went from he hates me/I hate him but I want him; to sort of friends; to a hookup and both wanting to continue; to everlasting love, possession and obsession. The evolution was great, it worked, but it seemed to happen in complete silence! A few conversations where they talked about their relationship (especially at the point that Gideon gets the huffs and Sam is left to work it out with the help of the rest of the team) would have made this a 'not enough stars' book!
However, despite the above (and that was my only cause for a grumble), the story was amazing! There were so many things going on and I would never have guessed the big surprise (no spoilers) and I'll admit I got a bit teary at one point.
I'm so looking forward to the rest of the series!

Pleasant sequel
If you liked the first book chances are you will enjoy this one too. The author, Louisa Masters, was very creative in this second book by deepening the universe she created in the first book but without being predictive. Excellent narration.
