Hex Marks the Spot by Morgan Lysand

Welcome to Hex, Indiana…

Poe
As the king of the crossroads demons, I hold all our secrets, and they aren’t all fun. I do my best to keep things running properly and modernize when I need to. But crossroads demons are slowly finding their truths, being released from duties, and I’m starting to flounder. Becoming the head of Hex, Indiana’s leading council has helped, but is it enough when I’m used to ruling over thousands? I’ll help anyone however I can, but what if I’m the one that needs it?

BB
I’m a bat shifter with the confidence of a piece of string. So, none. I have no family and I’m too scared to get close to anyone. The only reason I know about Hex, Indiana is because of an incident in a store where I panic shifted into a bat. Afterwards, a strange lady appeared and told me to go to Hex. I snuck in three months ago, but now I’m too afraid to do anything other than go to work. The one thing saving me is knowing I’m close to the demon I met as a teen. The one that said if I needed anything, to let him know. He’s handsome, but I won’t ask him for help. Just knowing he’s around is enough, even if our first and only encounter lasted less than ten minutes.

When the pair meets again, Poe’s world turns upside down and BB learns what it’s like to have someone looking after him. What happens when a possessive demon falls head over heels in love with a sweet bat shifter?
