SummaryGothic outcast Natalie Sugarman bartered her soul for her dying mother’s life sixteen years ago to a boy demon that could stop time. Now, days before her twenty-first birthday, the lifelines on her palms are slowly vanishing, and she knows it’s just a matter of time before Satan’s little helper collects.
Natalie's tried numerous times to kill the demon and regain control of her soul’s destiny, but she always falls short. When she decides to try and gain the element of surprise for her next attempt, Natalie seeks answers about his location from a freaky, glowing-eyed fortuneteller. Creeped out by the psychic’s methods, she bolts from the reading and misses the warning that the demon who stole her soul is always closer than she thinks.
After some strange incidents with her new boyfriend, including a hot, levitating sex session, she realizes he’s the grown-up version of her little nightmare and he’s returned to collect on their deal. Natalie must figure out how to win her soul back from the demon before her lifeline completely disappears and she becomes his forever—even if that means making a deal to damn three other souls to take her place.

Our 4 star review
My eyes search the immaculate room. He's here somewhere-the little demon who stole my soul.
Now, I just have to wait on him to make his grand appearance.
Natalie Sugarman’s life changed at the age of five. All she wanted to do was to save her mother, so when the demon boy showed up and promised to save her mother in exchange for her soul that is what she did. He also promised her he would be back to collect on the deal on her twenty- first birthday. She has lived in fear ever since, seen several therapists and has been labeled as the town’s crazy person.
"You belong to me now, and I'll be back to get you after your twenty-first birthday, when the time is right. No one else can touch you until then and I'll always be around to make sure."
All Natalie wanted was to be normal so when she and her neighbor Stew, develop a relationship over the summer, she is crushed when he tells her that they need to keep it a secret. She does what any women scorned would do and tells him to take a hike but she still feels this pull towards him.
"I've told you-people expect things from me. My dad doesn't want me to see you." "Please, Nat." He whispers and grabs my arm. Don't go. We can work this out. I need you."
With her twenty-first birthday quickly approaching and the life lines on her palms fading just as fast, Natalie is not sure if she will ever have any “firsts” to experience. She has tried everything to get rid of her demon boy and has failed at every attempt.
Then Rick appears in her life and he believes her story about the demon. He promises to help her find a way out of the deal. One night she meets with a psychic and is freaked out when the psychic’s eyes start glowing and warns her that the demon who stole her soul is a lot closer than she thinks. Scared and confused she bolts before the reading is complete.
"I've been thinking about doing that for a while, now," he whispers, his lips inches from mine.
Things get interesting when she and Rick have a mind blowing, very sexual make out session. This is when she discovers the truth and if that weren't enough it seems that the people she thought she knew are not who they seem. With danger lurking everywhere, Natalie has to trust Rick; the person she fell in love with and the one person who lied to her. Rick gives her a way out but in order to save her soul she must help collect and damn three souls to take her place.
"You need to trust me, Nat. I can make you happy. I know I can."
With help coming from an unlikely source, Rick and Natalie fight the clock to save her soul.
The characters in Demon at My Door are very likeable and Rick, he is one HOT guy!
My only complaint is that is left me wanting more.....
