Not as laugh out loud funny as Lockwood's other books, but definitely a great mix of humor, mystery, super natural and spirituality. If you're a fan of demon hunters (ie: Buffy the Vampire Slayer) or ghost stories (the non-heavy, light hearted kind) this is a book you should check out!

Love this author and this book does not disappoint! Topics like religion, good vs. evil, believing in something bigger than ourselves are the base of this story, but the author still puts her spin on the story & characters, which makes it a lot of fun to read. Can't wait to read the next book in this "series" ~ "Can't Teach an Old Demon New Tricks".

It all started when Constance's clumsy husband Jimmy was killed with a screwdriver to the back on the day when she was going to get him to sign the divorce papers. So of course no one in the town of Dogwood believes Constance's story: that a demon who calls himself Yaman and dressed in refined clothing did it.
Constance knows that her story sounds like make-believe, but just when she begins to doubt her eyes herself, her life gets even weirder. With the help of an angel disguised as a French bulldog who speaks English with a British accent, Constance realizes that she is actually a prophet, one whom Satan and his minions are keen on because she supposedly will have a vision of who will be the mother of the Antichrist. With Yaman and his partner Shadow intent on beating her into submission, Constance definitely needs help.
Unfortunately, help comes in the form of some odd characters. Like her mother, Abigail, an eccentric psychic of the tie-dye crystal-ball sort. Or Father Daniels, who has a penchant for violence. And last but not least, she has Nathan Garrett, Dogwood's new sheriff and the notorious young ladies' man who took her virginity and left without a word all those years ago. Unfortunately he's still looking as good as ever, and there's no denying the attraction they still have. With this ragtag group of supporters, will Constance be able to stop the destruction of the world?
This paranormal chick lit book is one heck of a fun read! Every Demon Has His Day has a great blend of the supernatural, the ridiculous, and Southern, and the sexy. What makes this book really stand out is how readers immediately come to care for the two main characters, Constance and Nathan. From the moment they are introduced to us, they are three-dimensional, with the passions and fears and disappointments of, say, an intriguing new neighbor whom you'd want to get to know.
Overall, Every Demon Has His Day is a delight to read. Its energetic pace and likable characters will keep your eyes glued to the page. This book is 100 percent fun.

I really liked this book. It kept my interest from start to finish. I'm going to request her sequel now.

Being the Chosen one isn't all fun and games. Constance can only beat the headaches from her visions with Dr. Pepper, and the snoring from her dead almost ex-husband is keeping her awake at night.
Constance Plyd is having a bad day. Her husband, Jimmy, is taking his own sweet time signing their divorce papers. Her restaurant is in the red, and she is knee-deep in bubbles because Jimmy decided to help with the dishes for the first time in their relationship by filling the dishwasher with Tide. To make matters worse, while she is mopping up the sudsy mess, she hears a large racket from the attached garage. Not knowing what mess Jimmy now made, curiosity gets the best of her and she finds her husband face down on the floor with a screw-driver poking out of his back. Standing over him is a large, dark man wearing a baseball cap who claims he is a demon who immediately disappears.
Nathan Garrett used to be a real ladies man. Back in his teenage years, he was known to have de-flowered many of the local ladies and keeping notches in his bedpost. Constance was number twenty-two. But Nathan has changed his wild ways and is now the town's local sheriff. When he arrives upon the crime scene at the Plyd's house, he can't believe how he let beautiful Constance slip through is fingers. Unfortunately for him, Constance is still mad at him for forgetting her. He never even spoke to her at the local Jiffy Lube. Now it looks like he may have to arrest Constance for the murder of her husband. With the five million dollar insurance policy, the evidence isn't looking favorably for Constance.
Constance swears that a demon killed Jimmy. Jimmy agrees. He is a ghost until the crime is solved and he annoys Constance by constantly appearing beside her. She starts having visions, and learns that she is a minor prophet. She can see the future. What her vision tells her is that Satan is coming to earth and is going to beget a son on one of the pop stars coming to film in their town. Unfortunately for Constance, a Pride and a Glutton demon need her visions to show who is destined to be the mother of the antichrist. They try many ways to get her to share her visions with them, even endangering her life. Nathan doesn't believe in demons and is determined to arrest Constance for the murder of Jimmy or see her put into an asylum.
EVERY DEMON HAS HIS DAY is a fun treat! Filled with snappy repartee, hilarious scenes, and a good vs. evil battle will have you entertained from cover to cover. The constant bickering between the demons and Constance and Jimmy had me rolling in stitches. The blooming romance between Nathan and Constance is sweet and heart-warming. The first work by Cara Lockwood I've read, I was absolutely charmed! I look forward to the next one, Can't Teach an Old Demon New Tricks.
