She is my greatest fear, my deepest regret, and my innermost longing.
LilianI checked every box there is in Forbes 30 Under 30, Tech Innovator, Top Female CEO, and the title claiming me the wealthiest woman on the planet. Others call me cold and calculating, but I know I earned a place at the table. Until everything falls apart with the death of my co-founder. Suddenly, I am hunted. The dark secrets that were supposed to stay hidden behind my perfect, curated mask threaten to surface and drown me. And then I met her. The woman, who saves my life, and changes everything. Everything.
KatIf you ask me who I am, I would tell you I am a ghost that strikes from the shadows. I kill. For revenge. For equalizing. For justice. I never had much regard for those who use and abuse others for their own profit, not back then, not now. And nothing will ever change that. Until one day, I meet her. Wealthy. Greedy. Predatory. And my number one target. Only my heart, the one I never thought I had, has other plans.
A sapphic love story between two powerful women, dangerous, destructive, obsessive, calculating.
Please The story contains very dark and possibly triggering topics and themes, including psychopathic behavior, descriptive smut, and kinky scenes. Please see the author's website for the full list.
Right from the prologue it pulls you in it makes you want to know what is going to happen next. Adding the playlist that links with the book too just sets the scene for each chapter perfectly. It’s dark it’s sinister but it pulls you in and makes you want to keep reading. The dual POV is incredible too you have Kat the one seeking revenge and Lilian who just so happens to become Kat’s next target. It brings the story together well getting to see both povs. You can feel the tension between the two characters right from the beginning and that’s what grips you in further. The twists in this book too like what? Drama chaos romantic tension? Sign me up. Also love the teasing aspect between the two FMCs it’s almost like a game of cat and mouse will they won’t they fall in love. The chase is so thrilling too. The asking for consent the full briefing before anything kinky happens it just adds to the perfection of this book. The playlist fits so perfectly with the theme of each chapter. Again the twists it goes from romance one minute to so much drama the next. Safe kink too? Keeping to the safe sane and consensual absolute perfection. All in all this book was magical ended with a happily ever after ending it’s a perfect dark read. You have murder you have kink you have trauma you have pure love you have revenge. It is an excellent book that really pulls you in right from the beginning making it hard to put down. It makes you want to read even more. It’s a fantastic read with a brilliant story line and it always keeps you on your toes you never know what happens next. This book will make you feel all the emotions. The playlist for this book perfectly captures each chapter and it ends in a perfect way without a cliffhanger where you wonder what happens next. 5/5 this book I’d recommend to anyone who wants a dark sapphic romance that is filled with spice and filled with lore.

WOW… talk about hot, intense sapphic characters. Kat and Lillian make Her Greed a page turner that will keep you from your daily chores. It is dark and I seriously suggest checking out trigger warnings. Personally, the darker and more morally gray the happier I am to read. I am a dynamic power exchange trope junkie. This book hits almost every button for dark tropes you can imagine. The seamless way they wind through this book is incredible. The many levels of battle that both MCs traverse, together and personally, create a journey that is almost a constant adrenaline rush of suspense, intrigue, angst, conflict and yep passion. The power exchange journey is what for me makes this the most compelling. (That is all I’m saying about it… no spoilers in my review.) That being stated take the leap into this sapphic gem. I am going to reread it to the person in my life as she will enjoy it and I am all for a second spin with these two women. C.M. Raven has become one of my new authors to watch. This is the first book I’ve read and I want much more. Their style and talent for immersing the reader is outstanding. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
Wow. That was a fun and thrilling read. Full of action and suspense. There are a lot of dark elements in this book. Plenty of mayhem and violence with a well balanced dose of the kinky - not too much nor too little but just the right amount.
The romance was unintentional with intrigue and infiltration, false identity and careful manipulations with intent to murder. The story was mostly fast but was well paced overall.
The story revolves around Kat the revenging equalizer seeking out all those who wronged her, and the billionaire IT mogul Lilian. Their paths converge because of their shared connection to another billionaire who is a blackmailer and the head of a child sex abuse ring. Lilian is implicated in the ring and tries to erase all evidence and is targeted next by Kat. But everything goes off track when they first meet each other.
The book also comes with a Spotify playlist and has a theme song for each chapter!
A great book to read if you love both thrilling action and kinky action!
3 stars. There’s potential here but the writing really holds it back. I just wasn’t a fan of it at all. The dialogue is awkward, the characters personalities are flimsy and the plot gets lost somewhere in the middle of the book. I really wanted to love this because I love dark sapphic romances but this one just didn’t work for me. I thought the plot was interesting in the beginning but once Lillian and Kat met they fell for each other so fast and I didn’t understand why. I think their chemistry got better later on but it was strange in the beginning. Three stars because it’s a quick read and I didn’t completely hate it. I’d probably check out book two when it comes out.

If you are into dark, twisted, fast-paced books with a lot of action and a dash of kinky sapphic love, this is definitely the book for you.
Her Greed highlights the lengths that abused individuals are willing to go to get justice. It's raw, it's vengeful, it's brave, it's conflicted, it's hot and dangerous (check trigger warnings or, as author C. M. Raven writes, "please know your limits and take care of your mental health").
Bonus points: it comes with a spotify playlist, and each song sets the vibe for each chapter.
Disclaimer: as a reader of slower-paced books and not a huge fan of books leaning towards the "action" genre, there are a few things that didn't quite resonate with me, so my rating is based solely on my own perception of this book and my personal taste.
Her Greed is what makes her a target, her love and tenacity is what gets her the girl.
This was my first book by C.M. Raven. I LOVE a good sapphic book and a bit of mystery/suspense so this book hit a sweet spot with me.
The fast paced story, the "instalove" connection between Lilian and Kat & the "who's done it" worked well. This book is mostly plot-driven and I really liked that. I was invested to find out who's behind the whole conspiracy and how everything was comnected and to see Kat get her revenge.
I will definetely be reading the other books in this series.
It’s been a long time since I’ve had motivation to sit down and read through a whole book without wanting to set it down… definitely pulled me out of a dry spell. The story line was gripping, I really didn’t know what to expect. The spice was insane and kinky just the way I like it. I’m so used to reading books and knowing how it’s going to end without reading it. I CAN NOT wait for her next books to come out
I really enjoyed this story, it delves into some really dark places but I feel the author dealt with them really well.
The only thing I would say is I wish it was longer and there was more focus on the chemistry between the two main characters. It’s not often I wish a book was longer but this is well written, intense and definitely worth the read.
I was lucky enough to be given an ARC copy of this book in exchange of an honest review.
