Nevermore: A Deal with a Demon

by Elle Mae

BRIAR

Ever since my little sister died, I have been able to see ghosts. It didn't take me long to realize that maybe it was best to just ignore them. After all, having to wander for all eternity with only other ghosts for company did strange things to the soul.

So why did I agree to help a teenage ghost save his kidnapped sister?

And from a demon no less!

I don't know what she wants or why she chose me but there was one thing that was certain. I will not be giving my soul to her.

No matter what her silly little deal states.

LUX

The human was... interesting. Humans hated my kind.

Thought we were disgusting and some type of monsters roaming the earth to steal the souls of their loved ones.

And they were true for the most part... but I had never met a human who had scolded me like a child the first moment they saw me.

After seeing the fire in her eyes I knew that this was one soul I had to have. By any means necessary.

So good! I loved this! To be a novella it was greatly developed and the romance was amazing. Lux and Briar stole my heart. I definitely need to read more Elle Mae, her lesbian romances are top tier. I definitely recommend this. Toodles!

This is a great novella! Ghosts and demons! Creepy small town. Some very spicy spice!! Who doesn’t wanna make a deal with a demon 😈

Definitely recommend, especially if some monster smut is your thing 😉 it does not disappoint!

This was such a good read! I was looking for a good sapphic paranormal romance and this was definitely it! This book centers around 2 main female characters, a demon and a human. There’s ghosts, there’s mystery, and some good spice! This was an easy and quick read and I highly recommend!

I was pleasantly surprised with how much I liked this short story! I mean not totally since Elle Mae is a fabulous author but just with the premise. You just know the author knows what they are doing when you fall in love with the demons and ghosts!!

This story had my complete attention. Plot, characters, scenery, all the things added up to a fabulous read. Needs a wee bit of editing but the oopses are lost in the steam these two beings create on the page. Highly recommend for a bloody good time and the most spooktacular HEA.

I have a thing for shadow monsters. I don’t know why. There were some interesting ideas in this novella and Lux and Briar were sexy AF but the whole resolution of the central conflict was completely unsatisfying.

I feel like nothing that happened made sense and the writing was questionable at times BUT , shadow demon 🫡

[Ashleigh Price · Rating 4 out of 5]

I just could not put this book down.

There were a few parts I felt a bit “meh” but overall a really good easy read.

If you like demon smut it’s defo for you

QUOTES:
* This was the human that would change this boring existence into something worthwhile. "Stay safe for me," I whispered and pulled my shadows into me.
* I wanted her soul like no others. Even being near her was enough to put me on edge.
* "You're mine now, forever," she said with a chuckle. I let out a laugh and leaned forward before whispering, "I always was."

Gods, I wanted to give this book five stars, SO BADLY. It was so damn good. The only issue was the grammar. The concept, execution, romance, and spice were so good. I wish so much I could give it five stars, like I said.
I loved the idea of a demon and her journey of falling in love with a human woman.
