When Raiya’s husband imprisons a monster from the hells, she sees an opportunity to free herself and spite her husband at the same time. It’s said that demons are immensely powerful, halfway between mortals and gods. If Raiya can use her knowledge of rune magic to break the demon’s binding, he might agree to protect her from her husband while they escape together. That is, if he doesn’t decide to kill and consume her, instead. The demon only requires one thing in exchange—her body. Demons live off the fear and lust of mortals, which means that she’ll have to find a way to sustain him during their journey. There’s only one thing more terrifying than sleeping with a demon: falling in love with one. Demon Bound is a standalone fantasy romance set in the Ardani universe and has a Happily Ever After ending. This book is intended for adults and contains spicy scenes and violence.

Azreth has always faced life alone. Trust is dangerous. Like all demons, he is a monster, forced to kill and abuse to survive. When he’s imprisoned on the mortal plane and bound to a cruel human lord, his only hope for escape is the lord’s mistreated wife, who offers herself to him in exchange for his protection. She may be small, but her mind is as sharp as any sword. Trusting her to help him navigate this strange new world is probably a mistake... moreAzreth has always faced life alone. Trust is dangerous. Like all demons, he is a monster, forced to kill and abuse to survive. When he’s imprisoned on the mortal plane and bound to a cruel human lord, his only hope for escape is the lord’s mistreated wife, who offers herself to him in exchange for his protection. She may be small, but her mind is as sharp as any sword. Trusting her to help him navigate this strange new world is probably a mistake. Her kindness is a trap, and he won’t fall for it.
