Blurb:
My boyfriend cheated on me, so I bought a possibly haunted hot spring in BFE, Colorado. Oops.
To make matters worse, the owner of my competition seems determined to crush my fledgling business at every turn. Oh, and the rumors are true…there’s an incubus demon trapped in my hot spring.
Just when I thought my life might get started, I find out my rival is blocking my contractor requests, making it impossible to get this dump running again. So, in a bid to save my business, I reluctantly negotiate with the demon: his infernal magic for my business's success. The catch? I have to let him get me hotter than the steaming waters to fuel his power and promise him freedom when my business has legs.
But what started as a purely pragmatic arrangement soon blurs into something dangerously sensual. I yearn for our charged encounters and ache for his touch. As our arrangement nears its end, and the deadline to free him looms, I face an impossible choice: protect my budding business or risk it all for the demon who has captured my heart.

Renovation shenanigans ensue.
Spicy shenanigans ensue.
It was a fun ride (pun intended)
Highlights
Chapter 6
"Your do not need to fear the apps."
Teaching an out of touch demon about modern technology is always a funny one.
Chapter 10
"Apollo what have you done to my stuggle ducky?"
Chapter 14
"Do I have a few minutes to browse porn with an incubus? Yes, Yes I do"
Chapter 18
"I have a particularly spicy Reylo fan fiction in the first thirty pages and really want that back."
That's one way to get someone to give back your special notebook.
Chapter 25
I combust into a million crystal shards, painting ceiling with glittering screams.
Chapter 31
So here we are. A demon and a witch, in love, trying to run a business together.
"I'm not a witch! Neither are you. We're blessed."
"Blessed with magic"
