The Devil I Do

by Naomi Night, Kelani Knox

She wanted a taste of danger.
Now she’s choking on it.

I warned her what I was.
Not a man. A weapon. A devil in designer.
Raised by blood, trained by silence, and crowned by chaos.
She thought she could touch the flame and not burn.
But she didn’t just touch it—she poured gasoline on it.
Now there’s no going back.

She wanted to play house with a monster.
So I gave her a wedding ring.
And a cage.

I’ll kill for her.
Lie for her.
Ruin us both to keep her.

Because she doesn’t know it yet…
But she already said “I do.”

Read on for forced marriage, mafia royalty, brutal devotion, and a hero who loves her so hard it breaks them both. HEA Guaranteed!

The rise of the Queen!

What a conclusion! One fitting both the main MCs, especially Sarai. The book starts exactly where the previous book ended. Leo has one goal and one goal alone; making Sarai his. And not just her body. His goal is to give her the power of the true Mafia Queen she really is. Her deprivation, her way of thinking – ruthless, strategic, calculating speaks to him. He doesn’t want to suffocate or change her. He wants her to rule. And he is not afraid to step aside for her, offering her everything on a silver plate. Sarai had a long way to go in this book in order to realize that Leo, even if he deceived her at first, only wants to offer her the world. I loved seeing her fall. A very unique couple indeed. 4 stars.

Kelani has hit it out of the park once again. This was such a fiery full of action and spicy mafia read. I loved that the FMC was tough and did not back down to anyone. She had trained herself without her father knowing and came up with plans all on her own and the only thing in her way is having met her match in every single way. The plot was so well-written and kept you on your toes each and every page. You didn't know which way this story would go. I enjoyed it and cannot wait to see what comes next.

Sarai and Leo's story carry overs in book two. Sari had no idea the extent that Leo would go for her or how deep his obsession for her was. She thought that she was in control of him but learned the real caliber of a man Leo was and what he would do for her. Will they survive the fallout of their actions.

We're taken on the continuation of Leo and Sarai's journey. He's still obsessed with her, and their relationship goes through bumps, and she can play the game just as well as he can. There's drama, chemistry, attraction, action, and many steamy scenes between them.
