El Diablo by M. Robinson

5.0

"Even the Devil was an angel once, Alejandro. It’s only a matter of time until you become El Diablo, too." Words that haunt your mind as you see the making of El Diablo.

Today, I cried for the Devil...twice, three times. It was more than that. Today, I cried for the life he lost.

If you think it's easy to be the villain, you haven't seen it from El Diablo's eyes. Life isn't easy and death is way too complicated. Somewhere in between is El Diablo but hope you never make it on his radar. Good, bad, or in between- you don't want him noticing you.

Alejandro Martinez is not a man. He is a boy. Or he was until one fateful night. But when he becomes a man, he is no longer recognized as Alejandro. No, he is better known as El Diablo.

We all do things for our family. We all have different breaking points. El Diablo just has a different view on how far to go for those he loves.

A twisted tale of lies, loves, and losses that leaves you hurting for the bad guy. Never one to be pitied, El Diablo is waiting to unravel it all for you. All you have to do is...one click!

Intense emotions are guaranteed for this heartbreaking tale. It is truly a messy tale but an incredible journey to the truth. Part of you will want to hate it...because well it's El Diablo. But as we all know, it's hard to hate the one you fall in love with. And you will- you will fall for Alejandro Martinez. And slowly and almost imperceptibly you will fall for El Diablo too. When you do remember, this is the most important part....

El es mio! (He is mine)

Enjoy this intriguing tale. It isn't light and fluffy. It isn't a traditional story. This is the real story of Alejandro "El Diablo" Martinez and like his life it is messy and complicated.
