Review: Hammer Down by Moria Rogers

Hammer Down
Children of the Undying #2

While the tattered remains of humanity huddle underground, hiding in their virtual world, Devi prefers living topside, making dangerous hauls through the demon-infested wasteland earth has become. The wealth that comes from smuggling supplies to those shunned as summoner-born or demon-touched doesn't hurt, either.

The man she meets to arrange one of those under-the-table hauls is complicated...and handsome as hell. Literally. A glimpse of the predator beneath his silver gaze and she's tempted to break her cardinal rule: never mix business with pleasure.

Zel's first look at the wild-haired hauler threatens to distract him from his mission--and reminds him just how long it's been since he got laid. As the leader of an outcast settlement, he can't afford to trust too easily. Devi's got a reputation for running a tight, disciplined crew, but her very willingness to deal with him means she has something to hide.

Not to mention a hot, tempting package like her could be the cleverest trap his enemies have ever set.

Warning: Contains demon bars, virtual (and literal) fights to the death, forbidden love, renegade AIs, a badass truck-driving heroine who will do anything to protect her crew and the half-demon warrior who will move heaven and hell to make her his.

I obtained the above information from Ms. Rogers website.

I should start by saying that I have book one, Demon Bait (here)... And it was awesome.

I am fan of Ms. Rogers writing and her sci-fy series is seriously becoming an addiction of mine. If you come to my blog home you will not see many sci-fy reviews... I'm not sure what it is about the outer world that does not make me run to read them, I haven't figured it out. But I am very picky about the sci-fy world reading material I put on my iPad. And Ms. Rogers series is one you will definitely find on my iPad.

Ms. Rogers has created a world with the right mix of creativity, intrigue, mystery, fascination, and dark secrets to keep me, the reader, satisfied and dying to know more. She also gives me the sexual tension that I crave, the hot - hold no bars - sex that truly is out of this world. But she also give the tender touches, the soft embraces and the sweetest love to come. But love does not come easy....

At least not for Devi and Zel (aka Dominic).... No, love does not come easy for them. Actually to be honest with you, it could cost them both their lives. Is love worth your life? Well, let's see if it would cost them their life....

Devi is a woman that makes me want to genuflect in devotion of what she does. She is a woman that is devoted to her crew. They come first, they are what push her to be the best she can be. Hauling might be her life, but her crew is her family. She is a strong willed woman, but she does have a soft spot. One that not to many people know about, hell... I don't think anyone knows about that spot. Because you see, in the world that Devi lives in... if one knows your weak spot... Well, you are as good as dead. And in Devi's job, dead is no good. She is fierce through and through and would die doing the right thing. But when she meets Zel.... is could be in danger of that soft spot being found and then what.....

Zel, aka Dominic, is a kickass man on a mission. To keep his people safe at all cost. He is the leader of the settlement his step-father left him. Did he want it... Maybe not, but he knew that was the right thing to do. But protecting his people from the outside world might prove the death of him. But he will die protecting them. But who will protect him? He does not allow anyone inside because he is not sure what the beast within would do. He is all alpha and 100% delicious. But just like everyone else... Zel has dark secrets... Would they be the death of him... or the woman that steals his heart and heals the demon within...

Ms. Rogers has a way of making me crave things I had no idea I wanted. Her world of the demons and humans is something that I want more of. Her characters are amazing in their own way. All are built with a tender side, but they all would not hesitate to kick your ass if you tried to do harm to them or their family. She has crafted them with a hint of darkness that makes then the badasses they truly are. Her series just keeps getting better and better.

If you love a good story with strong characters, strong family ties, deep dark secrets, some serious hot men and some hot loving, then Ms. Rogers series is something you need to pick up! I promise you, it is just that good. It is worthy of a hussy reading it and purring!
