Her Soul to Take: A Paranormal Dark Academia Romance (Souls Trilogy)

Dive into the heart-stopping intense start to the Souls Trilogy that started a TikTok sensation, this edgy dark paranormal romance—like Buffy but with tons more spice—now featuring special bonus content!

When ghosthunter Rae moves back to rugged Washington state, she doesn’t bargain for a titillating fork-tongued demon and a ritualistic monster cult…


The demon didn't just want my body. He wanted my soul.

Leon: My reputation among magicians is unblemished. Killer, they call me; killing is what I’m best at. One wrong move and you’re dead. Except her. The one I was supposed to take, the one I should have killed. The cult that once controlled me wants her, but I’m not about to lose my new toy to them.

Rae: I’ve always believed in the supernatural. Hunting for ghosts is my passion, but summoning a demon was never part of the plan. Monsters are roaming the woods, and something ancient—something evil—is waking up . . . and calling my name. I don’t know who I can trust, or how deep this darkness goes. All I know is my one shot at survival is the demon stalking me, and he doesn’t just want my body—he wants my soul.

Lose yourself in this spicy supernatural romance with a delicious dark academia smalltown setting, perfect for fans of Interview with a Vampire and readers of Scarlett St. Claire, Penelope Douglas, and Katee Robert.

This book from beginning to end had me hooked. I was even rooting for a demon and I’m glad I did.

It wasn't a big hit for me but I put some fault that my head space was not fully in it. I also kept going back and forth from the audiobook to physically reading it and the audiobook is not great - the female narrator felt like she was straight reading the book to me instead of acting it out and it ruined it for me. I will definitely do a reread when I'm in a headspace again.
I did enjoy the horror mesh with magical aspect of this book and I did like Leon however he wasn't as intimidating as he was described to be in some parts. But I did love when he got protective and the spice parts with Rae - like goodness
