The Devil in Her Bed by Kerrigan Byrne
4.0

The Devil In Her Bed is the final book in the trilogy that we have here, and it was so nice to finally reach a conclusion. I will admit this the book I was looking forward to the least. The heroine I knew would be an issue for me and to be honest in the first couple of chapters I wasn't sure if I would keep this book up or would DNF it because this heroine is hard as a stone especially towards men, she is bitter and cold and not the most relatable of heroines. And I was wondering while I was reading the first handful of chapter, how this author would win me over....well the answer is the hero. He was superb in every way and gave off all the delicious alpha vibes. This book also had some "Highwayman" vibes I was totally down for.

Francesca lost the boy she loved and her whole family was murdered and ever since then she has been determined to get her vengeance against those that took everything from her. She goes after men and destroys them in some creative ways while also getting the information that she desperately needs. But then she runs into a man she is not ready for and one who will tear down every defense she has....the Earl of Devlin. Devlin is a man of many facets and works as a spy for the government and is working his way to tearing down a dangerous secret organization but Francesca keeps getting in his way. There is a powerful chemistry between them but he is determined to tear down all her defenses and find out all she knows. But what Devlin and Francesca don't realize, is that they must join forces, come clean with their pasts to destroy their enemy and discover a epic love worth fighting for.

The Devil In Her Bed is basically what the tile infers to be honest. Because our hero is every bit the devil and what a devil. I absolutely adored his character in every way. And he is the reason that I kept up with the book, if it wasn't for him, I would have DNF'd it ....hands down. Francesca took a lot of time to be endeared to and even by the end I never really liked her character all that much. While we see some genuine traits to her character, I never got fully to the point where I could truly like her. The story is pretty intense actually and the plot of what the author builds here definitely will keep you in suspense and on the edge. I never really know what to expect with a novel by KB and I am more than happy to explore books more with her and seeing how she crafts a story. It did become quite a page turner and I was more than content to settle into it.

Overall I found it to be a stunning ending to a emotion craft filled trilogy and what a ending that Kerrigan Byrne has delivered to us. I can't wait to see what she has in store for us next.
