A first for me by this author and I enjoyed it. It's definitely dark and gory in some parts, so if you have a weak stomach, keep that in mind! I definitely had to take deep breaths and work up to pushing through!
This was a different storyline for me, I haven't read anything like it before and I loved that. While there were some parts I did feel the writing became a little choppy, it didn't quite flow, however, despite that, it's easy to read and the story keeps you invested. I was keen to see where it was headed.
These two characters are definitely different! They are perfect for each other and will do whatever it takes to protect the other. It was a short read for me, once I find a book I like, I can't put them down!
After what happened to Rain, she easily embraces the darkness. Like it has been calling to her all along. It was like a part of her recognised itself in Elijah and vice versa, they did seem very attuned to each other.
Loved the spicy scenes, really hot and steamy and had me blushing!
Very interesting read, I'm looking forward to read more of Elijah and Rain. A book I would recommend for the gore and horror lovers, who like a bit of spice mixed in!

Haunted by the Devil is an unhinged er0tic horror/love (more along the lines of obsession) story filled with gore, an insanely possessive MMC, killer tendencies, blood play and hand necklaces. This book has cult-y vibes, and a dark hero with an even darker past. It is entertainingly demented, so be sure to check triggers.

This has got to be the darkest most unhinged book I've read and I absolutely loved it. I'm so happy to have received an ARC of this to read.
This is the first book I've read by this author and I was not disappointed. Elijah and Rain were so much fun to read about. Both of them and everything they did was so completely unhinged and I couldn't get enough of them.
This book does end with the hint of more to come. So I am definitely excited for that. I'd love to read more about Elijah and what that ending with his dad could mean. Don't worry though, this can be read just as it is, since it does have an HEA.
For now, I most definitely recommend this. But absolutely check the trigger and content warnings. Everything in this book is very graphic.
Release date: April 19

“Little bat”
“I barely know you, but I need you. I feel safe with you.”
“Take care of my soul, it’s yours now.”
I loved this book! The plot, the characters, everything was so well-written. Quick and easy to read.
I loved the chemistry and dynamic between Rain & Elijah. Elijah was dark and unhinged, but at the same time, so sweet and loving. I loved how they were both, in their own ways, taking care of each other.
I need more Elijah in my life 🖤
The book was spicy, but it wasn’t all about the spice and instead had an interesting storyline going on. The cult aspect seemed really interesting, and I would love to learn more about it.
There were some really dark moments but also some really funny ones that made me laugh out loud.
Please check the trigger warnings before reading!
I received an ARC of this book and I am voluntarily leaving a review. Receiving ARC didn’t affect my opinion of the book.
