Two women, two cursed contracts, and a romance that could burn down heaven and hell.

Mercedes Midnight is a reaper in debt with exactly one year left before hell comes to collect.

Lucy Corvine, the devil’s daughter and revered professor, is imprisoned by a contract she never agreed to.

For nine long years, Midnight scoured graveyards and grimoires for a loophole, while Lucy wore a gilded smile and dreamed of revolt…

Until a chance encounter sparks a pact neither of them can afford to break.

When Midnight claws her way into Finis Academy, she and Lucy strike a perilous bargain: Lucy will train Midnight to win the academy’s coveted demon favour and Midnight will break Lucy’s contract.

But this is no simple deal. Not when a secret cult is scheming to resurrect a fallen angel and the city is veering toward celestial war.

They’re going to have to trust each other… not easy when they’re both hiding dangerous secrets.

Harder still when stolen glances in candlelit libraries ignite a forbidden desire neither woman can resist.

Now, they must decide: shatter the contract… or surrender to a love that damns them both.

One year. One soul. One impossible choice—their love or their own damnation.

This is a dark and very steamy lesbian demon romance featuring forbidden professor-student tension, dark academia vibes, soul-reaping bargains, morally grey heroines, found family, gothic campuses, and ruthless devils. 18+ listeners only.

Ruby Roe, you Ma'am are the biggest tease of ALL! This utterly captivated me with an excellent story, then there is the narration, oh, Yaaass!! The clever dialogue and and story plot keeps one engaged, while the twists leave you eagerly awaiting Book #2.

Let me just say, Sweet Heavens Above, With Lucy Corveine's character... I am, besotted, just yes, sooo besotted!! Plus-Plus-Plus, Steamy Encounters...Phew! Seriously help us all!

Highlights:
- Narration: The performance brings the characters to life. Oh, and 'Lucy Corvine!'
- Story: Ruby Roe's sharp wit adds depth and humor, JUST incredible!
- Cliffhanger: The ending leaves you craving more! MUCH more!

Disclaimer: If you struggle with waiting for sequels, proceed with caution! This delicious 'push-me, pull-me', will have you hooked and on the edge of your seat. I for one, cannot wait for the next masterpiece! Oh Em Gee!!! It hurts, but in a good way!!

But PLEASE, release me from the torture of waiting much longer, sooner rather than later! I beg of you, on my hands and knees!

JUST....

A cliffhanger!!!???? I just cant. That was the ending of Book One!? Why. Why do these authors be doin us dirty like this. Is it bc we cant safeword? Satan- moth- pancakes- pick your pleasure, but I aint got nothin left. When book 2 is released I wont be able to read the damn thing. I need these narrators back bc my brain is now latched onto their fictiously tumultuous lives and I need more of... all of whatever this book is back in my life. Uggghhhhh!!! The damn steamy scenes- keep your windows closed and pray for short red lights bc they do be loud and quite enjoyable to hear. Pace thyself. This book ruins you.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!??

I have yet to dislike anything this author has written and really enjoy the world this takes place in. I'm always wanting more and looking forward to more. I do get a little tired of the masc/fem trope that permeates most of these sapphic fantasy stories and would really love more fem/fem dynamics however this book was great but really brought to life by the talented narrators!!

Well done and the narrators were fantastic
