About A Deal with a Demon

A Deal with a Demon is Katee Robert's self-published monster-romance series, set in and around a magical black market called the Shadow Market. Each standalone book pairs a human (or witch, or fellow supernatural) with a non-human love interest — a dragon shifter, a kraken, a gargoyle, a succubus, a demon — built around a bargain or contract that forces them together. It's lighter on interconnected plot than Robert's other series and heavier on genre-blending monster-romance tropes: fated deals, power imbalances renegotiated as consent, and creature-feature worldbuilding layered under the romance.

Published between 2022 and 2024, the series wrapped up with its sixth book, The Demon's Queen. It sits outside Robert's Dark Olympus, Wicked Villains, and O'Malleys universes entirely, aimed at readers who want her explicit, power-dynamic-driven style applied to paranormal and monster romance rather than mythology or crime.

Frequently asked questions

How many books are in A Deal with a Demon?

Six: The Dragon's Bride, The Kraken's Sacrifice, The Gargoyle's Captive, The Succubus's Prize, The Demon's Bargain, and The Demon's Queen, published 2022-2024. The series is complete.

Do I need to read A Deal with a Demon in order?

No — each book is a standalone monster romance with its own couple. They share the Shadow Market setting but not a continuing plot.

Why doesn't the series' book order match the publication dates?

The Demon's Bargain is numbered book 5 in the author's official reading order but was actually published in October 2022, earlier than book 4 (The Succubus's Prize, March 2024). The series position reflects the author's intended reading order, not release chronology.

Is A Deal with a Demon connected to Dark Olympus or Wicked Villains?

No — separate universe, separate characters. It's paranormal/monster romance rather than mythology or fairy-tale retellings.

Is A Deal with a Demon finished?

Yes, the series concluded with The Demon's Queen in October 2024.
