He can never have me.

Acquaintances. Enemies. Nothing.

And I dream of what we could be.

REVIEW

Finally! The highly anticipated story of my favorite of the Devils. I have always felt Dominique's story would be deep. I've truly hungered for his book after all the hints at his attraction to Kasey (Baby Henderson), and after his experiences in the other books. Cruel Devil did not disappoint. I have to say I was very alarmed at how short this book was at first. I missed the announcement that they would get a second book. I was lowkey panicking until I read Daniela's note at the end. My reader's soul is now immensely satisfied. I will force myself to patiently wait for the rest of their story.

Kasey is spending her senior year of high school earning both high school and college credits. This means her path has again intersected with her brother and his best friends, the Devils. She may only be seventeen, but she now attends college courses and lives on campus. All of the guys are protective of Kasey, but Dominique takes it a step further. Based on his behavior in other books, I expected nothing less from him. He shows up in full alphahole mode.

Dominque and Kasey are very intense characters. The hate they feel for each other is palpable in every encounter. But so is this fiery chemistry they have. I couldn't wait for it to explode. They tried to contain it, but it bursts through. Prepare to sweat at the heat these two create! Their banter and dialogues are very believable.

I'm very pleased to say aside from Dominque's protective a-hole ways this book was totally unpredictable. I expected certain things to happen, and they just didn't. This book took such an unexpected turn. For such a quick read it was a rollercoaster. Cruel Devil ended on a minor cliffhanger. I'm happy where our characters ended up, but I'm also excited for the next part of their journey. It's a long one for these two, and I can see already why another book was needed. Considering their intense personalities, they have more to go through to obtain an HEA.
