Review Copy Received from Publisher
Summary: What happens when a young woman falls in love with someone who is not what they seem?
Jane's life takes a mysterious turn when Nick Devilin moves into the loft above her apartment. He is gorgeous, seductive, and oh so helpful. And Jane needs help. The FBI suspects her boyfriend of being a serial killer, and the enemies at her place of work are trying to get her fired. But things are about to change. The boyfriend leaves town unexpectedly, and Jane's enemies disappear in ingenious ways.
Nick invites her to spend two weeks with him on Paradise Island, and she finds scalding passion in his arms. She also wins millions at a roulette table. Nick always knows the right numbers to bet, and the right buttons to push to make Jane feel loved. But is he the answer to Jane's prayer, or her worst nightmare?
And then there is Patrick Rogan, the handsome FBI Agent who wants to save Jane from herself.
Will she turn to him for love, or choose Nick who could be Satan wearing a human body?
Jordan's Review: Contrary to the way I felt when I started Devil's Embrace by Victoria Chapman, I found I enjoyed it. The heroine comes across as a bit incomprehensible because she makes decisions no woman in her right mind in this day and age would make, but this is
fiction, so I went with the author and ended up enjoying her naïveté. Nick, as Satan, is more realistic, but you get the feeling he wants more than he can have from Jane. Patrick is the perfect hero and a good foil for Nick.
The plot rolls along at a good clip and kept me reading steadily, which surprised me considering I thought the conversations absurd and felt the heroine was acting, as I said, more than a bit incomprehensible. There are several surprises in store for anyone who reads this, but they definitely made the book better and more enjoyable.
While I have certain reservations concerning this book, if you can suspend your disbelief and do not mind a heroine who does some rather dumb things, this is a decent read.
Rated 3 Delightful Divas and by Jordan!
