Well, I admit the pretty boy with soft kissable lips suggests that I am not the target audience.

And book two looks like this:



And the third book in the series is called Demon's Surrender.

So, if you're telling me this is not a paranormal romance series, I'm... skeptical,

I'm in it for the hilarious snark and the characters (including Alan, who is basically a heroic version of Light Yagami in a world where everyone else's motivations are painfully straightforward). This isn't Twilight; there's engaging plot from start to finish, each story is a contained unit fitting into a larger arc, and there are genuinely surprising moments (including a number of great double-twists).

But yeah, there's a fair amount of makeouts, and it's definitely marketed toward girls. I guess I'm just desensitized after having been reading fanfiction so long, but if you find those elements to be a deal-breaker, I respect that.
