I received a copy of Temping is Hell by Cathy Yardley in exchange for an honest review. Kate O'Hara, who bounces from temp job to temp job, finally lands the ultimate of all temping assignments - hell. Well, maybe not really, but it sure feels that way to her. She hates the corporate world, and to her dismay she finds herself smack in the middle of it. Her boss, Maggie, is seemingly a psychopath and Kate's found herself on her bad side, the clerks she works with are ex-convicts that are okay with being abused and starved, and her big boss - billionaire Thomas Kestrel - is...sexy. And arrogant. But still sexy.But puzzle pieces come together once Kate is forced to sell her soul and she discovers Thomas's true intent - to kill thirteen guys - DEMONS! - in one year in order to get his soul back. And now Kate's as well. Kate's eyes get open to a whole new world, and she is shocked to learn best friend Prue is somehow a part of it as well. Can Kate get her soul back - and keep her life - while at this job?Loved it! This book was so fun to read and I had a lot of trouble putting it down. Kate is an awesome MC - independent, someone who will also stick up for others, and yes, a bit lost. She jumps from temp job to temp job and has found herself living with her parents, but she has a good heart and tries to do things the right way. I'm a fan of books with a bit of a magical twist, and with the addition of demons and soul-selling, I was a happy reader. I was also pleased to learn this is part of a series - and there were a few questions left at the end, so I'm excited to pick up the next book!**4.5 stars**
