WHAT?! That ending though.

Sibby is such an intriguing character. So much so that I read through this book in ONE. SITTING.

Trust me. It was worth it.

After reading Haunting and Hunting, I couldn't wait to dive into Sibby's story. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint.

Granted, read the trigger warnings first! Many people may be uncomfortable with this story, but I loved it.

Especially the plot twist at the end with Dr. Rosie. I DID NOT EXPECT THAT.

H.D. Carlton, you've done it again!

Perfect backstory

I happened to read the Cat and Mouse duology before I came across this novella. Sibby was a weird one in the Cat and Mouse books, but I was intrigued by her. This book offers a lot of her backstory and her "judgments" while traveling with Satan's Affair. I feel that this was a great prequel to the Cat and Mouse books as Zade shows up in this book as well and aligns part of the story from Haunting Adeline.

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5)

Satan’s Affair was a wild ride—fast, thrilling, and filthy in all the best ways! From the very first page, it grabbed my attention and didn’t let go. The pace was non-stop, the intensity was through the roof, and the crazy twists were exactly the kind of chaos I love. If you’re looking for a quick, intense, and unapologetically wild read, this one hits all the right notes!

excellent epilogue. it hits like a gut punch 🫣

Stars: 4/5
Spice : 4/5

This little prequel of haunting adeline was pretty good in my opinion. It follows Sibby and how she came to be who she is today. If you’re looking for a book that is a bit messed up, super dark with a handful of triggers and a ton of smut….this is the book for you. Tons and tons of gore, hacking and slashing.
