The DiFiore family continues in the Devil. Malcolm one of the most corrupt city officials and has managed to keep the fact that he is the Ghost's brother a secret. Valentine DiFiore is not directly in the family business, but is a doctor. When his best friend is murdered he is forced to be protected by Malcom, whether he wants it or not. They say there is fine line between love and hate, and lust is right there in the middle of that! Malcom knows he needs to stay away from Valentine, but that soon proves to be impossible. This is dark and gritty and steamy, everything you expect from his second book! I received this ARC from bad boy Updates.

The only reason I didn’t give this book a 4⭐️ is because of how whiny Valentine was!! He was unbearable!! It was an interesting read. Better than the first book. The bdsm in this book is crazy!!! Crazy!!! I enjoyed it.

**You need to check the trigger warnings if you have any**
Valentine you get 5 stars my love no notes. Everyone else, you’ve earned an invite to Chili’s.
1. Valentine is Brad coded, or is Brad Valentine coded? He also has sad boi hours which broke my heart. He’s an angel and I won’t be accepting feedback on him.
2. Malcolm, you sir are gonna have a bad time at Chili’s. You pulled your head out of your ass but you made my baby cry in the not sexy way so prepare yourself.
3. Silas, babe you know I love you and I love that you tried to stand up for Valentine in your own way, but you upset my baby which means I will see you at Chili’s.
4. Enzo and Lucas you two don’t even deserve separate bullet points, you know what you did and you better start treating my baby with respect, I’ll see you at Chili’s.
5. Demon, *squints*
6. This book had no damn right to be as funny or hot as it was. I truly don’t understand.

I loved this book even more than the first one, though that one was great too. Such wonderful characters, even if they aren't the best people in the world. This book is full of intense steamy scenes and I loved it from beginning to end.
