Book Description: 

It's called Sin City for a reason. Nowhere else are the temptations so great, the sex so good, and the demons so bad...

By day, Monica is a barista in a local café. It doesn't pay a lot but it puts her up close and personal with her sexy boss, Drew. Unfortunately that's as far as a succubus can go unless she wants to take his soul. Monica needs mind blowing sex to sustain her and she finds her victims every night at a local strip club where she's an exotic dancer. But when her powers begin to diminish and her fellow succubi start turning up dead, all bets are off. Monica realizes she's the one immortal who has a chance in hell of making things right...

My Review:

I received this ARC from Kensington Books via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

  Let me start by saying that I just love the cover! Honestly that is why I requested the book because of the cover, well and after reading the description of the book, I was intrigued! I mean " Monica needs mind blowing sex to sustain her"...well doesn't that sound sexy? 

  I really loved the plot to this book! Honestly I never read a book where the main character is a succubus, and after this book I will definitely read more books with succubus characters! Soul Stripper is about a woman named Monica who is succubus, in fact not just any succubus, she is a golden, so to say, succubus. She is the only known succubus who's once was an angel, and has fallen. Monica has powers to seduce any man to have sex with her, so that she can claim and take his soul to Hell. Since Monica was once Angel, unlike other demons, she still has morals. She only tries to feed on already Hell bound man. When she feeds  on you, she sees your life and she takes some days/weeks away from your life span. That's why she can't have her sexy boss Drew, well unless she wants to take some of his life or send him to Hell. As her regular routine of working at cafe at day and exotic dance at night goes, one day she starts to notice changes. She is loosing her powers, she can't shift anymore. That's not the most of her problems...The killer is out there, and not just any killer, a succubus killer, and Monica is his/her next victim..

   Monica was a little bit confusing to me. I felt like she didn't know what/who she wanted. She keeps jumping from one guy to another and honestly that was a little bit annoying. She kept falling in love with a guys she can never have. But I guess if you were an Angel before, you would want all of the good boys. But on the other hand I also liked how sarcastic she was at times and how she wasn't all bad-ass. She had some soft sides (if you don't pay attention to the "need to have rough sex thing"). Than Drew, I honestly didn't know how I felt about him or Wills, both of them didn't really appeal to me much. But Julian was an Angel, I mean literally he was an Angel in both senses...I liked Julian, and Damian! Oh sexy strange...he is what I like! I loved his remarks with Monica! All of the other supportive characters were also really good! 

   Now the most important... sex scenes...yeah of course there were sex scenes! Not as much as in Fifty Shades, but they were there. Well honestly I didn't really, how to say this, I felt indifferent towards them? Yeah...They weren't like super sexy or the ones that make you want to just "do it now". Lets just say it could of been better.

   Overall, I enjoyed the book, although there were some parts that I didn't really liked much.  But I definitely will have to read the next book in the series! Because the end...I mean seriously? What is going on? I have to find out how Monica's story ends! I would definitely recommend it! Give it a shot!
