read and reap

Happy Monday!

Sorry for the delayed post...hopefully I can make up for it with this excerpt from "The Demon You Know" by Christine Warren, a book about a woman who falls in love with -- you guessed it -- a demon. Don't let that undermine the quality of this little exchange between the two main characters, though:

"I'm sorry," she muttered, looking at his shirt instead of him. "I meant it when I said I wasn't good at this."

"You were wrong. You happen to be very good at 'the sex thing,'" he said, stroking his hands down her back. "You simply need to work on the bits where you start talking."

He may be a demon, but he certainly has a human male's mind...
