A missing royal. A love triangle. Can Maxine crack the case before her heart is ripped in two?
Maxine Brodeur has spent the past year recovering from a devastating breakup with Prince Arthur -- the realm’s future king. She’s kept a low profile as a half-human/half-demon, spending her days running “Doomed Cases,” a private supernatural agency. After illegally revealing her powers to save a human girl from attack, she gets an ominous letter bearing the royal seal.
Rather than being punished, Maxine is hired to find the young, kidnapped Prince George. Back in the secretive life of the royals, she must learn to work alongside sexy detective Zachary Quinton. Her new partner has no respect for the rules, and her ex-lover Arthur is doing everything he can to win her back.
Will Maxine find the missing prince quickly or will she cause another royal scandal in the process?
Demonic Triangle is a paranormal romance with a dash of suspense. If you like witty dialogue, strong but flawed female leads, and dramatic love triangles, then you’ll love the first instalment in the Doomed Cases series by Joanna Mazurkiewicz.
Demonic Triangle Doomed Cases Book 1 eBook Joanna Mazurkiewicz
The book synopsis appeared to be interesting, so I thought I'd give this title a try for .99 cents. Sadly, there is no real plot to give a backbone to the story, and the author can't help but repeat the same points, same ideas, even using the same words over and over again. I wish the editor had thought to give the author a thesaurus at some point during the writing process. There are huge leaps of logic that don't make sense in the world building, that leave the reader somewhat bewildered as to what the author was trying to accomplish. The main love interests aren't very likeable either - they feel more like the guy at work you have to report to HR for sexual harassment, rather than the "flirty with rough edges, but redeemable" trope that tends to inundate modern paranormal romance novels. More than halfway through the book, I feel no overwhelming need to finish it to find out what happens or to continue following the series, so I'll likely abandon this and move into another book.Product details

Demonic Triangle Doomed Cases Book 1 eBook Joanna Mazurkiewicz Reviews
I downloaded Demonic Triangle as a free book from . I'm slightly on the fence about this one, a 3.5 star read. I liked the story line and the English setting (with British slang). The characters never really grabbed me, in fact, 30 min after finishing the story, I don't remember their names for this review (Zach, Maxine, and Prince Arthur-- yeah, I looked them up). Max was a great protagonist, but I don't understand why drinking and gambling became her normal nightly activity (although there were hints-- her actions seem excessive for a mere break up, and the plot thread is not resolved in this book, leaving the character to appear weak because we are not given a reason to empathize). The two male protagonists weren't interesting enough to enhance her. Arthur was a whiny, lust-filled jerk-- always begging for another chance. I have no idea what Maxine saw in him, except physical attraction, which is not enough to cause a strong woman to fall into such a decline a year after a break up. Zach is an arrogant jerk-- again, I don't understand the attraction. With many subplots left unresolved in the end, the whole story seems too drawn out because we don't get closure-- sure, the reader's pretty sure what the secret is, but it's still not revealed in this book.
Should have been 5 stars (
Not sure what happened here - The story started out strong and minus a few editing mistakes I was thinking this was going to be a great read.
Then literally with the flip of a page it just became confusing and Maxine, who I originally was telling my son was a strong kick @ss heroine, turned out to be a drug-addicted, irresponsible, confused lead character (yeah I had to do a double-take on that one myself).
As readers we are given a handful of "suggestions" but nothing is ever defined or revealed.
The basis for this series has such great possibilities.
I know most authors after a first book will make changes in their writing style or editing for the second - I am hoping that is the case here because I truly believe this could be a great read and a series I could get into.
Maxine was running late for work at Doomed Cases, the rain started pouring down on her, and her phone was ringing for the 10th time! Ricky, her partner, told her 3 candidates for the full-time assistant position had already left because she had not shown up. He was upset with her being irresponsible. She hurried on, taking a shortcut, but heard a scream and felt terror. She was half-demon and could feel emotions. Two demons were preparing to drain a terrified young woman of her lust and innocence to sell for profit. She rescued the woman and took her to the office to dry off. Ricky promptly hired her – she was their 5 o’clock interview!
The next day, Maxine made it to work on time. She went to her office and saw the royal seal on a thick brown envelope. All her pain came back, remembering the agony she went through the year before that made her the broken wreck she now was! What could the royals want from her now? Why would they ever approach her again?
I love mysteries, and I love paranormal books even more. So I was very eager to read this book! I think it was good enough to keep me reading. The character development (aside from the repetition mentioned already) was well done. One minor distraction for me was that the author seemed to beat the reader over the head with the point being made that Maxine was broken and miserable, a drinker and gambler who could not pull herself together. We got that message early on, and rehashing it over and over did not make the story move along better. But despite that, the overall story was good. I would recommend it to others.
