The Devil You Know: Gothic Romance Suspense
River Pearson endures the abuse of her cruel husband until she steals her children away. She returns to the only man powerful enough to fight him and who’s ever treated her as special, barging into the mobster’s sprawling mansion. She offers him anything if he agrees to help her.
Cruz MacKenzie revels in dark urges. A self-proclaimed witch, he’s torn between wanting to protect and trap River. Determined never to lose the older woman who broke his heart the first time she stayed there, the high-powered Chicago criminal and brothel owner offers her a deal—his protection in exchange for her freedom. A tug of war ensues between satiating his cravings, pouring out his black soul, and teaching River essential life lessons. Now contractually enslaved to him, River’s humiliating punishment at his sensuous hands is made bearable by focusing on healing her children.
With a traitor in the house seeking to destroy them both, can this wounded pair break the chains of trauma? The Devil You Know is a pulse-pounding standalone dark romance novel. If you like brooding heroes, a gothic atmosphere, and steamy chemistry, you’ll love Kay Freeman’s suspenseful tale of dominance and liberation.
