I need book two right now!!!
I can't wait to learn more about India and Forge. What will happen next? I need to know!
In Deal with the Devil, like in all books written by Meghan March, she doesn't reveal all information about her main characters, right away.
India and Forge, are a mystery that you discovering as you read more chapters in this book. But even if you finish reading this, you still have very little information about them. But I have a feeling that the things I will learn about Indie and Forge will be shocking and exciting. I love this style of presenting characters in books. It kept me on the edge of my seat and guessing through the whole book.
As for the hero and heroine in this book, the author could not pick more perfect couple than Indy and Forge for this story.
Forge is a typical powerful alpha male, whom you just can not help but love and hate a the same time. Mysterious hot billionaire resembling Jason Momoa seeking for vengeance? Yaammyy!!
And Indy, whom I like very much. She is a smart beauty, very loyal to the ones she loves. Unfortunately, in desperate times does not make so smart decisions. She very fascinating character and I can't wait to learn more about her.
The chemistry between them is out of this world HOT. From the very beginning, they are drawn to each other. Of course, at first their feelings are very confusing for them but as always lust wins.
They do not know about each other much, just second-hand information, but certain circumstance force Indy to make a deal with Forge. And the reason for Forge's proposals and actions is a puzzle.
Which leaves me with so many questions. What is their full story? What she will learn about Forge and his motives? What will Forge do when he finds out about her actions? What awaits them in the next parts of this trilogy?

Intriguing, a small amount of sex.. but ended on a cliff hanger.. I hate cliff hangers.

My summary: Jericho Forge is a billionaire and no doors are ever closed to him, especially not the ones to a private poker game at Jean Philippe’s casino. When he finds out there is a game he wasn’t invited to, he shows up to find out who was trying to hide it from him. Forge bursts into the game, to the dismay of India Baptiste. India swore she’d never gamble in desperation again, but she has ten days to come up with $10 million or else. She handpicked the line-up for the game, which definitely did not include Forge. When things go wrong, India ends up making the biggest gamble of her life with Forge—herself. What starts as a way for Forge to finally get revenge against his nemesis Bastian DeVere ends up becoming more with India.
My thoughts: If you like billionaire, anti-hero, forced marriage romances, then get to reading (or listening) to this one. It nails all of these tropes. I did not love the female narrator of this audiobook, but I did enjoy the male narrator. It does end on a cliffhanger, which I expect with Meghan March’s trilogies, so I already have the next two lined up.
