About this book

Nova Fay is done being a victim. After the man who destroyed her life walks away unscathed, she decides that justice is better served by the wicked. Refusing to let her trauma define her, she summons the dark, unknowingly inviting a force of pure chaos into her reality. Lamia is a demon of retribution, a creature born of smoke and shadow who doesn't come for Nova's soul, but for her rage.

This gripping paranormal romance masterfully weaves the thrill of a demon deal with the intensity of a reverse-harem dynamic. As the two women form an unholy alliance, the line between vengeance and desire begins to blur. What starts as a simple quest for payback quickly spirals into a volatile, sapphic connection that threatens to consume them both.

If you are looking for a story fueled by unadulterated feminine fury, this is the perfect addition to your shelf. It is a sharp, atmospheric tale that explores how far one woman will go to reclaim her power. As the world burns around them, Nova must decide if the price of her revenge is worth losing her humanity to the demon who helped her claim it.

A delicious sapphic romance with a dash of vengeance

September 19, 2025

Overall: I loved it and wanted more! The premise was clear and the interactions between Nova and Lamia were so fun. I loved how the tension between them still had time to build despite how short this story was. The spice was just right, and the vengeance plotline tied into the small character growth arc nicely. A fun sapphic short story (say that 10 times fast)~ )

Femme Fatale Realness

September 19, 2025

Have you ever wished you could call upon the supernatural to get revenge? Yeah no me neither.... 🙈 We have this beautiful short story by @scmir.author that's full of feminine rage and an overwhelming theme of giving into your deepest desires. In this 55 page short story we follow Nova on her journey to get revenge against her abusive ex husband. Although this is a short and steamy read S.C. Muir does a wonderful job of fleshing out the main characters and their motivations for revenge. Overall...

sapphic demon revenge

September 2, 2025

4.5 ⭐ 2.5 🌶️ Demon revenge, but make it sapphic. My goodness I loved this story. It broke my heart what Nova went through, but the way her and Lumia “righted” that wrong was dark, twisted and absolutely amazing. This was short and took me just about 45 minutes to read which made it the perfect return to darkness while I’m in my current small town era. I really loved how SC wrote Lumia, she had an amazing monster form and mind spoke with Nova. She was a bad a m fer but was so sweet with Nova,...
