The Devil's Vice is so much different than Mindy's other books. It's so much darker. With that said, I highly recommend reading the trigger warnings before reading as some of them are described in great detail. 

Lillith is tormented by nightmares of her parent's murder and her own near death.  She's  a young resident training in the ER when she unknowingly saves one of the deadliest members of the Hellsfyre Motorcycle Club. There's something about him that strangely brings her comfort and recognition.  Kain instantly develops an obsession with Lillith and begins stalking her.  He becomes this deadly guardian angel with a twist where he permanently ends every possible danger to Lillith if you know what I mean. 

Kain starts leaving her with little notes in her house, but it's more welcomed than not. Lillith knows she should run or be afraid, but she's not. Kain's obsession evolves and he kidnaps her. Their relationship evolves from there leading to chapter 37. Holy moly. Spicy! 

Kain's story is so sad and heartbreaking. It definitely helps you understand this character even though he's a murder. He does a lot of terrible, evil things for a good cause. 

I did enjoy this side of Mindy Paige as it was so different and darker than her normal books. It was well written and made you feel really drawn in with the character's fears, anxiety, and excitement.

Thank you Mindy and The Author Legacy for giving me this ARC!
