by Victoria Connolly Layla Fae

4.7

A single, reckless decision on the summer solstice changes everything for Jaga. Drawn to the forbidden magic of the gods, she catches the eye of a monstrous, shadowy entity lurking in the darkness. During a haunting dance under the moonlight, he marks her as his own, and by sunrise, he refuses to leave. Now, this bloodthirsty devil trails her like a suffocating shroud, poisoning her world and dismantling her life in a relentless attempt to force her into a soul-binding deal. This dark fantasy romance masterfully employs a "cat and mouse" dynamic, blending intense power struggles with a unique, folklore-inspired atmosphere. As the devil traps Jaga in his web, she finds herself caught in a high-stakes battle of wills. While he seeks to break her spirit through isolation and despair, Jaga refuses to bow. Despite the encroaching darkness and the physical toll of his presence, she remains a resilient protagonist determined to fight back against her supernatural pursuer. Rich in emotional depth and atmospheric tension, *Devil's Deal* is a captivating, high-stakes journey that pushes the boundaries of the monster romance genre. Readers should be prepared for a gripping, intense narrative that culminates in a brutal cliffhanger, leaving them desperate for the next installment.

Jaga is a complicated FMC, for sure. Told from only her POV, this story is steeped in lore. Awesome world building, though definitely a slow burn.

It calls to him like the scent of fresh blood. I am not afraid. The night of summer solstice, I do something stupid. Drawn to the fire of magic, I approach the gods in their sacred circle. I am just a mortal, one of many. I shouldn't merit their attention. But behind the royal figures of the gods a shadow looms, menacing yellow eyes burning in its gloom. He asks me to dance. His clawed hands circle my waist, turning me to the sound of hoofbeats while his demonic voice whispers seductive lies in my ear. For one night and one night only, I let him touch me. When it's morning and gods return to their shrines, he stays. His bloodthirsty shadow follows me, a dark cloak hiding me from the sun and the light of hope. Where I walk, flowers wither and children sicken, touched by his suffocating darkness. The harder I chase him away, the more he enshrouds me in his powerful presence, his claws trapping my body, his will reaching for my soul. He takes away my tribe and poisons my life, trying to break me so I take his deal. But the devil is in for a surprise. I may give him my body, but I'll never break. With nothing to lose, I am ready to fight. Devil's Deal is a dark fantasy romance. Contains mature content.
