Since fleeing their home world centuries ago to avoid the rising Demon empire, the Blackwoods have been living among humans in a magicless world. Sage dreams of the day she will become the head of her family as the Blackwood Maiden and repair what the current Maiden, her mother, has broken with the help of her best friend Minx, the Orefell Maiden.
When the ceremony doesn't go as planned and Sage is viciously attacked by a Demon, she is forced to flee into the world she had thought to be lost to them forever. To make matters worse, half of her soul was bound to the Demon, Kade, during the botched ritual.
As much as Kade would love to finish the job, their souls are now bound to each other, in life and death. Sage is only just learning her newfound powers, and she needs the help of another Maiden to break the bonds that shackle her to the Demon. But the only other living Maiden is Minx, and she is stuck back in the magicless world Sage came from.
Against her better judgment, Sage must now partner with the aggravating Demon to find a way back home, before her soul is lost forever.

When reading "Deal with the Demon," I found myself completely immersed in the rich fantasy world where magic, ancient curses, and powerful bonds shape the characters’ fates. Sage’s struggle as a Blackwood Maiden resonated deeply, especially as she navigates newfound powers and the immense responsibility of her heritage. The dynamic between Sage and Kade brings that classic enemies-to-lovers tension, but what truly stands out is the complexity of their bond—half of Sage’s soul tied to a demon creates endless suspense and emotional layers. Packing for such a perilous journey, I was captivated by the ordinary yet relatable moments like Sage franticly gathering supplies, evidence of her unpreparedness yet determined spirit. This detail adds warmth and realism to the fantastical setting. Kade’s pragmatic nature in packing and his banter with the Hag also lightens the mood, showing that even in dark fantasy, characters can be multidimensional. The slowburn romance and forced proximity push both characters to confront their distrust and slowly uncover hidden sides of themselves, mirroring themes found in beloved series like Inuyasha and Sailormoon. The moral ambiguity in the characters’ choices adds depth, making the story not just a tale of fantasy adventure but a reflection on trust, identity, and sacrifice. If you enjoy stories with dark fantasy elements, supernatural bindings, and intricate character development, this narrative offers a captivating blend. It also highlights the importance of allies like Minx and showcases how friendships and loyalty persist across worlds, even when magic seems lost. The cliffhanger ending leaves you eager for the next chapter, hoping to discover how Sage and Kade will overcome their ancient curse to reclaim her soul and rewrite their destinies.
