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.

One of the most compelling aspects of "Deal with the Demon" is how it intertwines emotional depth with supernatural elements. The journey of Sage, a Blackwood Maiden navigating the loss and rediscovery of her powers while bound to the Demon Prince Kade, resonates with anyone who has faced inner conflict or challenging bonds. The ritual gone awry, witnessed in the haunting image of Sage’s mother performing a sacred, blood-stained ceremony, adds a layer of familial obligation and sacrifice that amplifies the story’s dark fantasy feel. Sage's struggle is not only with external demons but the weight of ancestral expectations and the mystery behind the ancient symbols that mark her. The slow-burning romance between natural enemies—the goddess’s descendant and the demon prince—adds tension and emotional complexity. Their forced proximity and reluctant partnership drive character development, highlighting themes of trust, sacrifice, and redemption. Drawing inspiration from iconic series like Inuyasha and Sailormoon, the narrative blends fantasy action with romance and moral ambiguity, appealing to fans of YA fantasy and dark fantasy genres. The inclusion of morally grey main characters challenges typical fantasy tropes, offering a nuanced look at identity and allegiance. From a reader’s perspective, this novel invites reflection on personal power, family legacies, and the cost of confronting one’s demons, both literal and figurative. The cliffhanger ending promises more twists, making it difficult to put down and perfect for those who enjoy immersive, serialized storytelling.
