Initiated: Episode Two

BR with my fellow "Bellaholic" Julie.This was again another great episode of "The Demon Gate Series". But I do think we're still working up to the really good stuff!!Two new characters are introduced:Mr. Cassien(President of the "Society")Adriel Sâma(Demon King of "Hell's eighth gate")My only wish for this series is that we get less m-f sex!! As Brian needs to accept his new bisexuality!!“I won’t have you ashamed of me, Brian. You will accept both my role and your own,” Adriel said, risin [...]

Overall book rating: 4Audio book: N/ABook cover: 3 StarsRating this series one book at a time is not that easy, cause you really have to see the BIGGER picture as a whole to show appreciation. It’s not my usual type of thing. There is no hearts and flowers moments here so move along if that is a MUST have thing for you. I’m gonna keep reading on for a little while longer, because I’m sensing something on the horizon, and that just might make it worth the wait.I’m totally in the dark here [...]

3 Fem bitsStars!I love this book, but damn! This would have been a rock solid 5 stars, but I do NOT endure fem bits well these days. So it it a shaky (4) 5 stars.Because, besides the fem bits, this book was absolutely fab! The execution or rather intro this book was stunning, I felt The engine roar of the engine as he speed to get to his mate This writer know how to set a pace. I loved it, the flow was splendid . This writer has me hooked on his easy raunchy dare-devil writing style for sure. I [...]

this is how I see Adriel SâmaCan't wait to see what he would make of Brian.I couldn't keep myself from thinking about how the Japanese use sama to adresse someone of higher rank so just saying Adriel Sama felt like I was saying master Adriel it just put everything into perspective from the first time his name was mentioned and it felt somewhat real like I didn't even need a tilte to adresse him his name is enough to demand the respect. I felt Like I didn't have a choice but to submit to him in [...]

Just not for me.

Another must read for every Bellaholic!

Different from his previous series but this one is just warming up.

This was better than the first one. As in it didn't start out with raaaaaaaaaape.There were some slightly rapey moments, but not nearly as much.Still a lot of 'i'm not gay, but I need this'And now we have a new player for him to get his 'i'm not gay' lusting on. (But this time it's not the demon and it's mate so whoop boy you Bi. Get over it.)Would have done a better review but I've read several books since I finished listening to this.

Things are heating up!!!

The entire month of October has been dedicated to books in the Horror/Paranormal/Halloween themes. As you can see, this series is named The Demon Gate Series, so it fits right in.I was given a complimentary copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.This is episode two in the Demon Gate Series and these should be listened to in order so you can fully understand the events taking place in this story.Brian is beginning to learn a little bit more about what it means to be an Agato demo [...]

Nvm that I had to overlook the rape in the first book. It was still interesting. The relationship was at least developing and the book had a promising plot and future The demon society, the soul eaters It was all a good plot needed. I even rated it 4*However this book was a huge disappointment. It started really good but at the last 1/3rd it completely destroyed all the promisese when I consider the authors other books, you already know where this leads to.When you ever read the books 'chained i [...]

5 starsThings are getting hotter.It's not like Brian's life is not complicated enough, with all the souls he needs to survive, out-of-control sexual tensions, and his obligatory monthly booty call with Raphael. He discovers that there are still many things he needs to know. Raphael agrees to tell him more in exchange of some sexual demands. Sneaky bastard, right?Yet, Raphael is not the most dangerous man here. His work for the Society brings him right to the door step of a much more dangerous de [...]

The story has veered off the romance course and has dipped into the sleazy erotica pool. Very porny with a straight hero beset on all sides by hot demons that want to plumb his plumbing, and no of course he doesn't want it as he repeatedly tells everyone even while there's a hard on tenting his pants. Gonna give the next one a try and see if it doesn't get any better.

3.8 StarsBetter than the previous one but I'm getting a little tired of the "not-gay" protestation while reveling in the gay sex. Sometimes the binary of straight/gay doesn't apply, damn - just own what you like, asshole.

Brian to the rescueBrian gets initiated in more ways than one. Learning his demon powers, secret societies in the world, and being bi-sexual. He is in need of a learning curve but sarcasm aside he is in it to protect the world.

Getting interesting Adriel, Raphael, and Brianunds like things will be getting interesting from here on out. Hopefully he gets past his denial stage.

Iniciated: Episode Two (The Demon Gates Series Book 2)Still fun, still sexy, still kinda dark.Minor M/F action here too.King Demons are fcking hot BTW ^^Next, please!

And…the plot thickens!!Brian Cordero, the sexy cop turned into a demon Agoto is getting in over his head, I’m afraid. He is struggling trying to meet the demands his body needs as far as feeding and having sex with his mate. He continues to be in denial about the pleasures he receives from Raphael even though fulfilling the demands his body is seeking makes him fill renewed and have newfound vitality.In the first episode, Brian was approached by a secret organization who wanted his help in b [...]

(Audio Book review - narrator: Michael O'Shea) This is basically a review of the first two audiobooks. The rest of the series is not yet available as audio. The first book was just an introduction to get the story going, although it has a rape scene which should probably be warned for. This isn't going to be a series for everyone. It's dark, violent erotica.First off, Michael O'Shea does a fantastic job with the narration. His voice is sexy and he reads the main character and supporting characte [...]

SteamyThis book is so steamy. Hot sex throughout. Had to wipe the steam off my kindle so I could read it. Nicholas Bella did an incredible job on his writing. I love his creativity and his originality. He just blows me away.Now some highlights.Brian is still struggling with his sexuality. He's still telling himself he doesn't like men but his body has other ideas. He just about losses it when Raphael meets him at his apartment. Brian wants answers about other demons and the secret organization. [...]

4,5 starsReading Updates:4%I opened the door and saw him sitting casually in the chair by the window with his arms resting lightly on the armrests. He wore a crisp white business shirt, which was open, exposing his sculptured chest, and he was in a pair of black dress pants, unbuttoned and revealing a little bit of his blonde pubic hair. The vision of him partially dressed sent signals to my cock that it was time for action. My desire for him flared like an inferno and I had to hold on to the do [...]

~~ARC gifted by the Author in exchange for an honest review~I have nothing but raves and waves to give this hot author, he has a style all his own. I just think he rocked the M/M world and he gives you something you can sink your teeth into. This new series is amazing the second book Initiated will have you saying damn Brian still fights against his new life, being a demon host. If he really thought about it, its not as bad as he whines about it. He's been approached by a secret organization tha [...]

It's really getting hot in here!!After reading the first book in this series I knew I had a new favorite, Initiated just confirmed it all the way. I longed to read more of Brian and his new life and within his new future to be. Oh, and his mate Raphael, my new crushoh this blond sexy sob with his Italien accentpurrrTo see Brian finally accepting his new demon part and even giving in to his urge to be together with his mate and mentor, Raphael, is hot, wait than hot and awesome. These two Alphas [...]

After Episode One's amazing cliffhanger, Brian is contemplating joining the Society in order to save humanity. In order to do that he must convince a demon by the name of Adriel Sama who is actually a Demon King that can close the Gate of Hell that is opened. Episode Two starts with Brian running home to meet with Raphael. It's been a month since they last mated and the Agoto is want in another session. Brian has been sleeping with other women to calm it down but only Raphael can really do that. [...]

You are an amazing writer. I'm currently reading DEMON GATE 2 and I've been into Yaoi/ MM since 2007, I can fairly say that you're one of those few LGBT writers who grasp the point of LGBT relationships to the point that you can bend and break some standards, if you know what I mean. I love Brian and his journey from straight to bi. Usually I'm not into bottoms switching but you sometimes make it work. Like with Raphael and how flawed yet solid he is as a man. I have yet to purchase the next boo [...]

It's no wonder Nicholas Bella is one of my favorite authors. Nicholas writes such complex characters and original stories that get you hooked. This installment of his Demon Gate series has Brian starting to accept his new life and he's leaning towards giving in to his desires. Now not only does he have his mate Raphael to deal with but a new powerful demon named Adriel. Brian is also realizing he has so much more to learn and that he may not be as invincible as he thought. Can't wait for Episode [...]

This just keeps on getting better and better. You have to read episode one to understand what's happening to Brian. He's being drawn to Raphael even though he doesn't want to be. He has decided to join the organization that fights the demons and protects the humans. If you're into raw, gritty and dark with a kick as plot and lots of steamy sex then this is the series for you. Independent reviewer for Paranormal Romance &Authors That Rock.

This is book 2 (episode 2) of this series. All of they are novelettes and range from about 75-85 pages. This one follows newly made Brian, as he tries to juggle understanding what he is, what he’s capable of, dealing with a Demon King, his every day job, and his mate. The man is stretched thin. Now he has a secret society to add to his list. This is a very creative and addicting world that Nicholas has created. I’m very interested in seeing where it goes.

It just keeps getting better!Oh man! Nicholas Bella is rapidly becoming one of my favorite authors! I love how the books feel more like a tv series. Every book is like an episode, there's just enough in each book to have you holding your breathe in anticipation while still keeping you captivated for the next installment. There's a soothing flow to the books as well, you get drawn in, enjoy a bit of snark, a dash of sexy fun naked time, and a spot of action. Excellent series!

An Awesome Series Not To Be Missed!!The books keep getting better and better. Brian is learning more about how to live in the world he knows even though he has changed as well as the world around him has changed. The world Nicholas has created is utterly fascinating and a bit bizarre at the same time. I can't get enough. :)
