About this book

HER SOUL IS THE TORMENTOR GIFTED TO HER BY HER COVEN. A MONSTER MIGHT BE HER ONLY CHANCE AT SALVATION.

Once upon a time, Rue existed for her coven. Once upon a time, her coven cursed her. Split her in two. Separated her from her soul. Jinx is her untethered soul wrapped in flesh and made up of everything that constantly annoys Rue. When her carefree soul makes a mistake that requires all of Rue's magic to fix, and with their lives on the line, Rue decides it's time to finally find herself a crossroads and try to make a deal.

Killian has surrendered to his sentence at the crossroads. He’s brought fame, riches, vengeance, and a mirage of happiness, but Rue’s request took him by surprise. He’d never known a soul’s casing could be broken and that soul set free, but it was the pain in his chest when he looked at them and knew they were his that knocked him off his feet.

Being mated to Rue had to be a cruel twist of Fate. How could he find a soulmate who was not only separated but at odds with her soul? How could he grant her request and risk never seeing Jinx, the one who openly loves him, again?

With the Lumena Coven alerted to the mating and a vicious monster out for blood, Rue is running out of time. Will she finally tether herself back to her soul? Or has her curse finally run its course?

This book is part of the same universe as A BITE FULL OF DEATH. If you have no interest in that book, this can be read as a standalone without it impacting the story

Is it still a love triangle if the other woman is your soul?

April 30, 2026

Don’t go into this expecting a revamped or copy paste version of Bite Full of Death. This is monster romance with a cursed witch. It is despair, longing, and in my opinion(obviously) it’s a paranormal version of what it is like to be a Black woman. Because of our greatness the power we can willed. We are cursed by the corruption of a world that cannot and refuses to appreciate us, often by those that think they are more deserving of our power. Rue is the embodiment of that while Jinx is the...

Monsters Need Love

April 30, 2026

Y'all, once again SJ Stewart pulled me into a story and gave me everything I didn't know I needed. She always has characters that you can relate to in some way or another...no matter how unhinged and chaotic they may be. You definitely get unhinged and chaotic with Rue and Jinx, these two are like watching yourself fight yourself in a mirror! (That will make sense once you read it.) Add in chaotic, unhinged, and possibly ndv Poe and the recipe gets spicy and unpredictable. Plus, you sprinkle...

Spellbinding!

May 5, 2026

A spellbinding story of a witch, her corporeal soul, and the magnetism between them and a crossroads demon, A Deal with the Untethered, is a fast-paced read that's difficult to set down. Author SJ Stewart has written a captivating monster romance with a bat familiar, delightfully unhinged, morally grey characters, and reluctantly fated mates. This book has a layered plot of coming into one's power and becoming their whole self, as well as enchanting imagery, prose and world-building. I love a...
