Lenora made a mistake. She trusted the wrong man, and in a moment of weakness, he stole a family heirloom from her. Her only chance to get it back will be during Samhain, when the Shadow Market opens and magical folk gather for three days to celebrate, and unfortunately she can’t do it alone. She needs a demon.
Ramanu’s entire existence is making bargains. They’re a bargainer demon, after all. They’ve had their eye on Lenora for some time now, so they’re pleased when she summons them to help with her little thief problem...especially because it means spending time in close proximity with her.
Lenora thought she could get away with a bargain that didn’t require seven years of service, but when Ramanu informs her those are the terms, she decides to go it alone...even though the demon wants to tag along to the market. But as the clock ticks down and all Lenora’s attempts to reclaim her amulet fail, making a deal with Ramanu might be the only option she has....
And they might take her heart right along with her soul.

Male narrator was so-so with Ramanu, but terrible with Lenora.
Good. But not enough.

I love this series. This one is great to get 4horn perspective, but I don't really think the book was long enough to do it justice. The set up was great, but in order for the plot to end where it did, the actual falling in love was rushed, even by romance novel standards. I appreciated the FL in personality. The fact she was actually capable of powerful things was not in evidence on page, however.
Performance was great on FL, but the way 4horn voice did FL voice was off-putting.
Enjoyable

Format I read: Audiobook 🎧
Audio version: Dual Narration
Narrators and performance:
Elizabeth Russell: ⭐⭐⭐ - -
Jonathan Waters: ⭐⭐ - - -
I cannot stress this enough: I cannot stand the way Jonathan voiced the female character. It's a dual narration, so Jonathan read all the chapters that were from our demon's point of view, and he made everything our FMC said, sound like a breathy wine. Like she was constantly on the verge of losing herself to euphoria. It. Drove. Me. Insane. Needless to say, I hated his chapters. He did a decent job voicing his demon, but that was about it.
Now elizabeth, she did a better job with her parts, although I feel like she made the demon sound a little more sultry than he should have. But I could live with that. I've heard worse from female voice actors trying to do male voices.
1st person POV
The POV splits between Lenora's and Ramanu's POVs
Pros of the Story 👍
- it's a cute little spicy story. I mean, there's a little freak in all of us. And demon smut is way tamer than what some of us sick freaks like. 🥴😜
- I like the way the author brings different types of demons into play here. Like our main demon is a bargainer demon. But she mentions other types. I like the way she created the interdimensional travel between the demon realm and the human realm. Even though this story was legitimately meant to be a smart story, the author put a decent amount of work into the world building. Which made it enjoyable.
Cons of the Story 👎
- I'm going to put the fact that it's so short in this section because for me personally, I would have liked a little longer of a story. A little more fleshed out. Like, (spoiler alert) the scene where Ramanu kills her ex by beheading him during a tournament fight, was very anticlimactic. So much more could have been put into that scene. To that whole situation. A little more drama for our heroin and her demon to overcome would have been awesome.
- I'm also going to put in the cons that I feel like are two MCs fell for each other a little too quickly. I'm a sucker for a slow burn, and this is not that.
In summary 📝
6/10 would recommend. I feel like this is a nice little tame smut books that would be a good opening gateway drug to a little more "out-there" spice.

Ramanu is summoned by a witched name Lenora (Lenora is the granddaughter of a witch who tried to have a romantic and sexual relationship with Ramanu in the past but it didn't work out.) and she asks for their help locating her ex, a man who stole a family heirloom from her, a necklace. They work on getting the necklace back but not before having some sexual fun with each other. The plot was just alright, it wasn't anything too exciting.
The spice in this was okay, nothing spectacular so I'm giving it two chilies 🌶️🌶️ out of five chilies. What I didn't like was the small amount of blood play (that wasn't tagged as such), it made my skin crawl and I couldn't get into the spicy scenes.
Overall, this was just okay. The story was fine but I didn't love the spicy scenes so I'm giving this
⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3/5 Stars
