My summary: After marrying Jericho Forge in a whirlwind and the subsequent release of her sister from unknown kidnappers, India now faces her own abduction from Forge’s private island at the hands of Bastian DeVere. Bastian and Forge have had a long time feud and India is unsure of who to believe. After returning to Forge, despite all of her doubts about her new husband, the one thing India knows for certain is that she’s not giving up her poker, whether or not her marriage to Forge lasts. And Forge has decided that he’s not letting her go. 
My thoughts: The continuation of the Forge trilogy picks up right where the first book left off. It is overall fine. It’s a bit hard to keep some of the side characters straight, and the reason for the involvement of some of them in the plot is murky at best. I’m still not enjoying the female narrator much, she has an odd inflection at the end of sentences that just isn’t jiving with me very well. This book ends on a cliffhanger, just like most of Meghan March’s trilogies, so I’ll be diving right into the third one next.

*sigh* I want to be loved by Jericho Forge!!

Meghan March is completely wowing me with this trilogy. The second book of this incredible series is all the suspenseful sexiness that I love about Meghan March’s writing. Picking up where   Deal With The Devil left off, Luck of the Devil continues Forge and India's thrilling story filled with secrets, lust, intrigue and love. With the added gift of cameos from some of Meghan's other beloved characters, this book was everything. I could not get enough!

I didn’t think it was possible but I am even more obsessed over this couple than I was before. Forge especially has taken a piece of my heart. We get more of his backstory in this book. Which in turn caused me to be absolutely gone for him. I love when we get to see a different, almost softer, side of a character like Forge - who is so alpha it's hard to believe he could care as deeply as he does for Indy. Gah! I love him so much.

India is not one to be overlooked. She really holds her own in this book. I admire her strength and her backbone. If I didn't already have a girl crush then I would have developed one after reading Luck of the Devil.

Of course, once again, the queen of the cliffhangers just destroyed my being with an epic ending I didn't see coming. It feels like my heart fell out of my chest with that ending. I’m dying to find out how this story ends. I’m impatiently counting down the days.

Oh! Side note. I don't know what it is about a high stakes poker game that I find so incredibly sexy. Meghan March captures the drama and suspense of each hand with perfection.
