Phantasma by Kaylie Smith


Do not enter Phantasma unless you want to enter into a contract with the devil. At Phantasma one will encounter a devil game that will put you through the nine circles of hell in an ultimate battle for your life. But would you be willing to strike a deal with the devil if you could come out at the top with all that your heart desires?
When Ophelia’s Grimm’s mother dies she knows that it is her fate to burden her family's gift….or curse. Coming from a long line of necromancers she has always conversed with those that have passed even those that haunt her. Soon Ophelia and her sister, Genevieve, learn that their mother left them with a mound of debt; they must find a way to repay it if they want to keep their family home. But when Genevieve goes missing Ophelia discovers that she has entered Phantasma. It is now up to Ophelia to enter hell knowing that she might not ever make it out if she hopes to save her sister's life. Luckily Ophelia joins forces with the devilishly handsome Blackwell. The end goal is to stay alive, find her sister, and help Blackwell break free from his hellish prison. 
I was not prepared for how much I fell in love with this book and its characters. The ever moody Ophelia and cheerful Genevieve have stolen my heart. Not to mention the ever desirable and morally gray Blackwell. This gritty, gothic, dark and spicy romantasy is brilliantly written from beginning to end. Filled with equal amounts of adventure and passion I can not stop thinking about this book and am desperately waiting for book 2!
