Salt and Bone
by Rey Luca

When Briar Decuir and Evelyn Portis unexpectedly find themselves on a mission to take down the same vengeful spirit, they realize they have no choice but to set aside their long-standing animosity and work together. For a brief time, they put their personal differences aside, focusing on the task at hand and hunting down the creature with a single goal in mind. However, while they might agree to cooperate in the short term, their history is far from forgotten.

Old wounds still simmer beneath the surface, and the unresolved issues between them constantly threaten to resurface. As they navigate their uneasy partnership, they begin to realize that they are not just facing the malevolent spirit. An even more dangerous and mysterious enemy is lurking in the shadows, one whose motives are shrouded in secrecy and whose evil intentions are far more insidious than they could ever have imagined. The danger is only beginning, and the past may be the least of their worries as they confront a threat that could change everything.

Salt and Bone is a sapphic paranormal romance with a happy ending.

This was a captivating story, filled with supernatural beings, tension, and two unforgettable FMCs. If you enjoyed watching Supernatural, especially the earlier seasons, you’ll enjoy this quite a bit. In the opening chapter, the banter between Evelyn and Briar reminded me of Bobby and Rufus, and made me curious to see what was next. It almost felt like watching a favorite show that’s been rebooted with a few twists in the cast at first. However, while there are elements that seem heavily influenced by the show (like how vengeful spirits are dealt with), this is definitely a unique story all its own. Once you get a little deeper, you can see how it diverges from what I can only guess was the inspiration. One of my favorite parts was the little glimpses into the past that gave some more depth to everything, each giving the reader more information without overloading. The story itself is very high tension, and I don’t just mean the tension between the FMCs, the story itself has high stakes, and you won’t want to stop reading once you start. Cannot recommend enough for sapphic paranormal romance lovers!
