Mori
I’ve loved and lost once before, and it nearly destroyed me.
One might think I’d be scared to try again, but since discovering the existence of fated mates, I’ve waited on tenterhooks for mine to appear.
Fate, apparently, is content to keep me in suspense.
When a nervous human brokers a deal to find his brother, I can’t refuse. My tracking days are over, but there’s something about River that makes me want to get back in the game. Besides, it’ll be a good distraction from waiting for my dream guy.
It quickly becomes clear that River isn’t all he seems. And even worse…I can’t deny the attraction between us. But can I go there when I can’t promise River forever?
River
I’ve always been a liar…but this might be the most dangerous lie I’ve ever told.
Making a deal with a son of Lucifer to track my brother is a bad idea. Especially since he currently holds the number one spot on Mori’s hit list.
I’m asking for trouble.
But I’m out of options. Blaise’s death creeps closer every day, and despite his past misdeeds, I have to save him. Even if it means pretending to be a human, when I’m anything but.
The more time Mori and I spend together, the harder it is to hide my true identity. How can I when he’s everything I’ve ever wanted in a partner?
There’s no point dreaming of a future with Mori. Even if he forgives my deception, he has a fated mate out there somewhere.
And it isn’t me.
Deal With the Devil is an exhilarating, forced-proximity M/M paranormal romance with a HEA and no cliff-hanger. It is the third book in The Reckless Damned series, which is best enjoyed in order due to the overarching plot. Each book focuses on a different couple and will have a HEA.
CW: references to off page domestic abuse and anxiety attacks. Includes references to torture, murder. One scene of homophbia, including the use of a homophobic slur.
