Plot Summary
After a routine, bloody incident patrolling the borders of her elven home, Evonne is desperate to wash away the grime and tension of her martial duties. When she’s in a river, disarmed and exposed, a hungry incubus presents her with a challenge her weapons and training can’t prepare her for.
Tempted by the demon’s charm, she battles against her own desire—if she gives in, will she come to regret her decision?
Book Review
The following review was originally published by Tera on her Blog, A Succubi's Tale on May 9, 2021
Evonne is an elven ranger on a mission. But a moment’s loss of concentration brings her into the presence of the incubus Hanan. Trapped with no other choice but to accept a pact with him, the pleasures may overwhelm her senses, but the price paid may well be worth the risk.
The story begins with a sense of adventure and Evonne is enthralling from the start. She’s a strong character, and there’s a clear purpose to her actions as the work unfolds. It’s when the story introduces Hanan that things turn sideways overall. He is an incubus, and from the moment he appears, there’s a feeling that he’s using a bit of mind control on her. It’s subtle, which I liked, and it doesn’t overwhelm events between the two characters. Once the deal is made, the story turns into a wonderfully hot piece of erotica. Several passages are exceptionally well told overall. There are a few points where Hanan’s nature takes the story in directions that feel forced and considering his promise at the beginning that seemed a bit out of place.
This isn’t a love story by any means, the point is for Hanan to get what he needs and for Evonne to get what she needs. But in spite of this, there’s some connections that might have been good to explore. The ending leaves me wanting in a lot of ways. Yes there is a clear direction for the story to go in, but does it really have to go there? Evonne might decide on something else, Hanan isn’t, mostly, a typical incubus after all. Still, what if there’s a need from both of them beyond simple attraction?
That thought interests me because it leads to the possibility of further encounters or adventures. Perhaps not together all of the time, but wouldn’t it be interesting for Hanan to need Evonne to the point of making her a succubus or offering that to her? There are a lot of possibilities to explore.
Still, the story focused too much on the sex overall and that left a lot of story and character development untouched. It needs to be.
Four out of five pitchforks.
A lovely mix of erotica and adventure overall, but missing something between the characters beside their sexual needs. I’d like to see more of them, see where this encounter leads to. There might not be anything more, but the ending offers something to consider and it should be.
