The Devil You Know

The Devil You Know

Claire Marta2018
My name is Mavi StClair. I'm a monster with a pretty face. An assassin in trade. Guilt, remorse, it's never touched me. I'm as cold as they come and just as professional. Dealing death has always come easily, and I inflict it with ease. It fuels and feeds the twisted darkness inside me. My downfall begins with a single night of untamed passion leaving me hungering for more of him. One wicked soul recognizing another. Now he owns me. The lines of what I know are blurred. I'm playing his game. A pawn, eternally tangled in a web of secrets and lies. He won't let me go. Taking pleasure in my fall from grace. Question is, can I save myself before I'm damned completely?

Wooooooow! Brutal, erotic, and so very, very dark I don't typically read anything so dark, but this story was amazing! I spent most of the book screaming internally and so was not ready for it to end when it did. I have to know more, I have to know what happens next for Mavi. I will say, some of the scenes in this book could be too intense for some readers as they are quite explicit and not all rainbows and sunshine of you get my drift, so consider carefully if you're up for reading this one. That said, I loved it! Definite must-read if you are into the much darker side of the paranormal romance.
