“Everything was in a tangle – lust, lies, business, murder – and she honestly didn’t think she had the energy to try to unravel it all any more.”
Regan Mallory had almost everything. As the deputy general counsel of a powerful New York private equity firm, she’d traded her terrible marriage for a world of private jets and intrigue, of international investment and adventure. But she may have gotten even more than she bargained for when she said yes to the most dangerous deal she’d ever worked on: a CIA sponsored contract in Mtsvane, Georgia, with her boss, the crisp and collected Christopher Leland, and Marc Easton, a mercenary with a past as dark as a Russian winter.
As they work the contract together, Chris, Marc and Regan will sort through a web of lies and intrigue, lust, deceit and politics to unravel a mystery that will change Mtsvane – and Regan – forever. Caught between her own desires for the two men who brought her there and her own sinking feeling that things aren’t quite what they seem, Regan will discover secrets about Marc, Chris and herself that will lead her deep into a devil’s triangle of money, lust and murder.
Everybody’s using someone. Regan only wishes it didn’t feel so good.

If I had to summarise Devil's Triangle with one word it would have to be HOT, well, no, SMOKING. I'm normally of the opinion that people should be able to control their sexual urges but from the description alone, I was in complete sympathy with Regan's inability to untangle her feelings and desires for the two very different men in her life.
After closing herself off emotionally after her divorce, she is suddenly thrown in a situation in which she has to depend on two other people. At first it's just to do her job, and then it seems like lives might be at stake. With all the secrecy and double-crossing of the business world, it isn't easy to tell who is who or even what is what.
There is a lot going on under the surface, but I personally got a bit side-tracked (or melted) by the chemistry between these three, in and out of bed. Marc and Chris are radical opposites, but they seem to find something in each other to admire anyway. Regan feels clearly aligned with Chris in terms of class and occupation, even if she thinks he’s a bit hard edged for her to have a serious relationship with. And Marc… She is a corporate lawyer, what's she got in common with an ex-soldier turned private contractor like Marc? The answer should be 'nothing' but the sparks that fly between them are undeniable. Hot enough to light whatever professionalism was between Chris and her, even.
The novel is set in Georgia and we get to look around a bit through Regan’s eyes but, like her, I was keeping my eyes on a different type of scenery. The first sex scene is a drawn out almost painfully entrancing affair that left me gasping and made me late to an appointment, after that I decided this wasn’t fit to read in public.
The story closes well, but I still would have liked a little more.
