Devil May Care: Eden Valley World Novella

By Amy Cissell

When you're the queen of hell, no one can tell you what to do. Not your friends, not the Queen of Heaven, and certainly not your mother. 

 

Liliana Faith Morningstar Addams has ruled hell for thirty years, and she is damn good at her job. She's also good at delegating all Eden Valley-related obligations to Kevin—the former lake monster turned immortal shadow who bridges the distance between the light and the dark and keeps them in balance. 

 

When the devil on your shoulder is the best friend—and former crush—you haven't spoken to in years, is there any way to repair the bridge she dynamited and you let burn?

 

Shelby Hill Wood has been on the golden throne just as long, but unlike her former BFF, she hasn't shirked her responsibilities to the town where she was raised and the women who raised her.

 

Shelby's holier-than-thou demeanor and Lily's devil-may-care attitude were what drove them apart twenty years ago, and it's going to take their mothers, a monster, and a miracle to bring them back together.
