He’s the hottest bachelor in the city, and the CEO of one of the world’s most successful racing companies. She’s an independent BBW, and mechanic by trade – a woman who can fix his cars, and repair his broken heart. If only he’d let her.

The trouble is, we all know what happens when you get into bed with the Devil.

Take a fast ride with the Devil

While Devil is the story of a devilishly good looking ex-race car driver turned CEO of his deceased dad’s race car team, Tyler hasn’t given up his thrill for all things dangerous and fast including women. But when he spies Sierra at his annual midnight race event he discovers a gal very unlike any he’s ever known and this one appeals to something inside him saying he has to own her. After a wild and satisfying week with Sierra where the chemistry between them is off the charts, Tyler is left to face his relationship fears. Let’s just say he wasn’t very likeable in his reactions and the way he treats her.

Sierra has grown up in her father’s shop at his side. She can tear apart and reassemble a race car. Fixing the heart of an ex-race car driver is another matter, though. How do you fix something you can’t see or define? Why would you stick around when the man you’ve fallen in love with suddenly treats you like the latest flaky bimbo along for the ride. I liked the fact that she packed up and left his butt.

I wasn’t so happy when she took him back all too quickly. While it gives you that HEA it left me wanting a bit more. Devil is a fast and steamy read. So if you are looking for that fast ride of a romance that has every chance of possibility doing a crash and burn or pulling it all together in the last lap then Devil delivers.
