About this listen

A student finds herself accidentally betrothed to a demon—and investigating his connection to the magical irregularities plaguing her city—in this cozy, whimsical YA romantasy.

As a scholarship student at the magical Lyceum, Naomi would rather focus on deciphering ancient scrolls than dating. Especially since the only boys asking her out are less interested in a night in Naomi's company than an introduction to her influential aunt.

So Naomi devises an excuse to turn down her persistent suitors: She claims to be betrothed to a demon.

Her story works perfectly. Until she arrives home one night and finds the demon Daziel lounging in her rooms, insisting he's her betrothed. Naomi knows he’s lying—after all, the betrothal was never real—but the gorgeous and infuriating demon is surprisingly resistant to her banishing spells. And with his penchant for baking and home décor, it’s not so bad having him around.

Besides, she has other worries—like the ancient scroll she’s trying to translate, and the way the city’s magic has become suddenly unstable. But the more Naomi learns about the scroll, and the more she gets to know Daziel, the more it seems like she might be at the center of something bigger than she could have imagined.

Critic reviews

★ “With a conversational narrative style and a main character who brings quite a bit of common sense to the table, Reynolds’ step into the fantastical is a welcome breath of fresh air in this popular genre. With fast pacing and a plot that stands its ground alongside the romance, this is a well-rounded must-read for fantasy and romance lovers alike.” —Booklist, starred review

“A cozy fantasy that intertwines academic intrigue, magical peril, and slow-burn supernatural romance.” —Kirkus Reviews

“With its charming supernatural relationship in a fantasy academia setting, blended with humor, and the adventure and intensity of end-of-the-world stakes, this will appeal to fans of Harry Potter.” —SLJ

“Devilishly delightful, Hannah Reynolds weaves a rich tapestry of a world filled with complex magical systems, archaeological mysteries and a fake-dating story for the ages. Naomi and Daziel are captivating together, every witty and clever exchange dancing off the page.” —C.B. Lee, New York Times bestselling author of Coffeeshop in an Alternate Universe
