What an amazing ride we have been on with the first two books in the Forge Trilogy, but the conclusion will blow your mind!
Right from the beginning you are thrown into a flashback that has been the root of Jericho’s vengeful existence. Then you flash forward right where we left off in Luck of the Draw to Indie’s worst nightmare and it was a nail biting ride. I was at the edge of my seat a majority of this book.
Throughout this trilogy you can’t help but fall in love with Indy and Jericho more and more. Indy has this tremendous strength and will do anything for those she loves and it really shows here. Jericho, who is seen to be so ruthless and merciless and who is willing to do anything to exact his revenge, shows his softer side in Heart of the Devil. But right when you think its smooth sailing ahead, BAM, you are hit with another wrench and another heart-wrenching scene commences. But there is never anything to to worry about, with the love these two have for eachother, and the will to fight for one another we know a happily ever after was on the way.
Meghan March is not just an amazing author who brings us awesome characters and great storylines, but she is a genius with all her jaw-dropping twists and turns that continuously keeps us guessing and scratching our heads with what we just read. This is definitely the case in Heart of the Devil and I loved every minute of it! This was a wonderful ending for Indy and Jericho, the epilogue was so sweet and melted my heart. Hope to see these two again in the future!

Don’t mind me... just gonna casually give this book 5 stars... I listened to this book in like 2 hours and it was a wild ride. I would also like to mention India is a bad bitch and she doesn’t take any bullshit.
This book just had all my favorite tropes and I was dying. The trope where one of the characters breaks the other character’s heart to protect them just breaks me every time. It’s done so so much but it just kills me EVERY DAMN TIME. And the plot twist at the end?! Honey, I was eating it up. By no means is this book a work of art but it’s so much fun and I was having the time of my life listening to it. I just had to give it 5 stars.

There may have been a slight obsession with Jericho and India’s unconventional relationship since the tiny snippet of a preview. There are just so many heart-wrenching emotions, twists and turns, laugh-out-loud moments and affection. It was very well wrapped up, the ending was satisfying and expected. I devoured it. I let it sit in my Kindle app for a good few days before I finally caved and decided to read it. It was a wild ride.
I’m not usually a fan of stories that span over three books, but I have been obsessed with this full series since the beginning. So because of that I don’t mind that the stories are spread out. In fact it works in this case. The books are still a decent length despite the fact that the story itself if spread out more. The content is not lacking and is quite substantial.
An anti-hero is sometimes what you need in a story. Sometimes you don’t want a guy that makes a good hero, you want that edge and you want it from someone who should not be getting that happy ending. Jericho is a man that is never soft; except for India. She is his kryptonite by this instalment and he’d do anything for her and to protect her. It was immensely satisfying when he finally decided to declare his feelings to India. It was definitely a “finally!” moment. The entire build-up to that moment was worth it.
India is one strong women. I’m in awe of her strength, she got through some shit. She just doesn’t crumble under pressure, especially when it comes to her family and Jericho. She takes action and thinks later. Her faithfulness to the ones she cares about definitely goes unquestioned. She thinks of herself second. She’s incredibly intelligent, loyal, resilient and fierce. Her and Jericho match each other perfectly.
Meghan March has the writing style to instantly grip you and pull you in to the world she’s created. I do love this entire series that she’s created. You don’t have to read them all at all, you can just read one section of the series or all. I definitely opted for all because I was sucked in to this world. It’s a mixture of anti-heroes and heroes and it’s so wonderfully done. I’m very much looking forward to more.

Heart of the Devil was the thrilling conclusion to Meghan March’s pulse-pounding Forge Trilogy and *wow* was it worth the wait! With dramatic plot twists I didn’t see coming from a mile away, duplicitous characters, and a whole lot of revenge on everyone’s mind, the earth-shattering romance between Forge and Indy was the absolute icing on the cake.
This trilogy is one that you definitely need to read in sequential order. And now that the final book is out, it’s safe for readers who aren’t fans of cliffhangers–or waiting for the next installment to come out–to snatch this up. You won’t regret it. There are so many layers to this trio of books... Read More

This story starts right from where Luck Of The Devil left off. Going into this story is bittersweet since I know it’s the end of this latest trilogy from an author who knows just how to grab her reader’s attention. This time Forge starts us off with thoughts from his past. We also get to hear Jericho’s pain. India Baptiste is nervous and you’ll feel that coming through your headphones. That’s something I don’t think you can feel when reading a book. And if you’ve listened to the first two books, you have to get this last in order to really get the full affect of who Jericho Forge and India Baptiste are.
Our narrators, Joe Arden and Erin Mallon, give the reader one more listen to the suspense that surrounds our characters. We get to hear the terror of what may have happened. We get to hear the emotion of someone who’s not sure of what they’ve seen. We get to hear as realization finally comes to light. We rely on our narrators to bring Ms. March’s words to life and one more time they did that in spades. They were also good at confirming my surprise because I never saw it coming. The ending was perfect for our main characters but I was left wondering if we’re going to see de Vere any time soon.
This is going to be a set that I can picture myself listening to more than once. But instead of waiting for the next one to come out, I have them all in one place so now I can just go from one to the next. At least until the next book(s) come out. Then that leaves me wondering who will the narrator(s) be. Thank goodness I have plenty of our author’s other material already in my listening library.
I voluntarily reviewed an Audiobook copy of this book.

Sadly the ending of this trilogy that started out so promisingly felt slightly disappointing
This is actually a review not only for Heart of the Devil, but at the same time also for the whole Forge Trilogy. I love Meghan March’s books, but she is fond of having her installments in multi-book stories end in cliffhangers, and that is something I cannot abide. Additionally, the Forge Trilogy is part of her Anti-Heroes Collection. Having read and loved those books I felt that this was actually rather lighter in tone. As much of a dominant alpha-badass as Jericho Forge actually is, he makes damn sure that there is not even a whiff of dubious consent; it’s the heroine’s decision all the way (even though he makes her beg). The predicament that India finds herself in – and that sort of forces her to make a deal with the devil – is of her own making and not orchestrated by him, although he is not above taking advantage of a situation that seems to fall into his lap.
So at the end of book 2, Luck of the Devil, Forge was abducted, and India will do every thing to get him back, even ask for help from her father. I hope it’s not too much of a spoiler to say that Forge eventually gets rescued (or more accurately manages to rescue himself). But rather than that being the end of his (and India’s) problems, its just the start of them. There’s lots of noble sacrifice (completely superfluous in my opinion) and a bunch of unexpected (not to say unbelievable) turns before they finally find their happy ending. Aside from all that, what almost bothered me the most was the gratuitous use of violence that practically left all of Forge’s employees, security people and long-time associates dead. I know they were only secondary characters, but it seemed unnecessary that they all had to die.
Overall I would probably give the trilogy 4.5 stars, but after quite a strong beginning sadly the subsequent books seemed to move downwards and become more outrageous and unbelievable, as far as those labels can even be applied to this type of romance. But some of the plot developments failed to adhere to the inner logic of the story (for instance Forge’s very unnecessary “sacrifice”, which didn’t help the situation at all and of which we knew it wouldn’t help the situation). So 4 stars for the conclusion of the Forge trilogy.

Holy mother of twists! This was such an epic conclusion to the trilogy. I didn’t expect half the things that happened. March really knows how to keep you on your toes.
