Apparently so, because instead of her dice, the store accidentally sends her an ancient artifact that summons a wish demon who has to grant her wish and then take her soul. It's the rules. Or so he says…Luckily, as an expert on "e;be careful what you wish for,"e; Esmeralda comes up with the perfect wish: either the demon gives her the life she always dreamed of, or he walks away—from the deal and her soul.The good news is, the demon chooses Option B. The bad news is, he's not happy about it, and his new hobby is making Esmeralda's life as miserable as possible. But soul bargains are tricky, tricky things. And sometimes, Being itself decides how the story should ultimately play out. How to Outsmart a Grumpy Wish Demon is a modern-day paranormal romcom that comes in two flavors, released as separate editions.
