A Witch's Guide to Fake Dating a Demon: ‘Whimsically sexy, charmingly romantic, and magically hilarious.’ Ali Hazelwood

Product Information

Because of their circumstances, Mariel and Oz take time to warm up to each other, starting with friendship and then moving to romance. Sarah has an MA in archaeology and has excavated at an Inca site in Chile, a Bronze Age palace in Turkey, and a medieval abbey in England.

A Witch’s Guide to Fake Dating a Demon is a delightful, cute, steamy story that ends with a magical twist! This book has great romantic tension due to forced proximity and slightly unconventional meeting, and is perfect if you want all the autumnal vibes but none of the fear.Oz id annoying, easily offended, protective, and struggling to overcome the issue with a past bargain.

As for the romance, it was instalove but it honestly had a pretty decent execution since he was soooo down bad for her but, overall, the romance was lukewarm at best. Mariel is a witch that can’t seem to get anything right so it isn’t too much of a surprise when she accidentally summons Ozroth to deal for her soul. When she accidentally summons a demon, the two are trapped together until they can figure out a way out of a bargain for her soul.Sarah Hawley's effervescent prose leaps off the page right from the hilarious opening scene, and I did not stop smiling until hours after I'd reached the end.

This book reads and feels like a contemporary story with fantastical/paranormal elements naturally sprinkled into the world. Both were also genuinely overwhelmed by what was happening to them and while they weren't always the best with communication or extending grace to each other, they do learn more about the other as their forced proximity continues.I also wish Mariel would’ve refrained from telling her friends that she was fake dating Oz because it kinda dampened the effect.
