Set in Nigeria, by a Nigerian author, with fantastical elements derived from traditional beliefs.
FMC summons a demon in order to enact vengeance and murder her rapist, and reclaim her life. MMC delights in her bloodthirstiness. I know, it sounds like it should be dark, but I found it to be a surprisingly sweet book. MMC is touch-starved, and very respectful and deferential. They avoid issues of any power imbalance. I strongly disagree with the characterization of this book as erotica. There are open door sex scenes, but there is a plot and character development, not just a premise off of which to hang a bunch of smut. The main characters are complex and lovable.
CW: The rape occurred before the beginning of the book, and is recounted in fragments in flashbacks.
Bonus: FMC is lovingly depicted as plus sized.

This is a fun a steamy Novella! Joy summons a demon to help her take out a man who assaulted her. She doesn't want the demon to kill him, she wants him to make it look like an accident. Malachi is a demon who escaped from a cult and needs more deals to keep him tethered to the world. One thing I adored about this book is how apologetic Joy is in her need for vengeance and how that makes Malachi love her more and he never talks her out of her plan. Check your trigger warnings on this one!
