Publisher Description
He promised to protect me and my children from my abusive husband, but who'll save me from him?
I signed a slave contract that said I'd do anything in exchange for his protection. I'm discovering anything covers a lot of territory. I never thought I'd fall in love with a criminal. Just so you know, Cruz owns a brothel, and he's a witch. Now, things are getting dire. Cruz MacKenzie is a man of contradictions…he loves art and philosophy, is sweet to my children, and told my husband to shove off, but can I trust him?
The Devil You Know is a pulse-pounding, first in a series dark romance novel. You'll love Kay Freeman's The Devil You Know if you like brooding heroes, a gothic atmosphere, and steamy chemistry. Play with fire tonight!

This book is not for everyone. This Gothic Suspense Romance Novella contains power exchange dynamics. The hero is morally gray and not a warm and fuzzy character. He also practices Wicca. Both the hero and heroine are survivors of physical abuse. He's a victim of child abuse, and she is a domestic violence survivor. The hero's mother suffered from drug addiction, and his father used his religious fervor as a weapon. Her mother committed suicide. The book also contains graphic descriptions of sexual activities. If you find any of this objectionable or triggering, stay clear. However, with all this said, the book is healing and hopeful and ends with a positive, loving relationship.
Customer Reviews
Dark, Gothic Romance with a Twist
The Devil You Know by Kay Freeman is great for listeners/readers who want a read that is ALL about the relationship between the two leads, and the trouble that surrounds both of them. It's not for the feint of heart, as mentioned. The story follows River, a middle-aged woman who is pulled back into her past with Cruz after a dramatic event with her abusive husband. It has an easy, quick pace, and a really fun twist at the end that had me thinking back to everything I'd read leading up to it. I'd recommend this for those who want a really steamy read that pulls no punches!
