The Devil’s Bargain By Carin Hart

They say the Devil doesn’t bargain. I’m here to tell you that he does — but sometimes the price is still way too high.

I’m in trouble. Deep, deep trouble.

I never meant for it to happen, but my ex is dead—and I’m the one who pulled the trigger. Whether he deserved it or not… whether anyone will even miss that jerk… it doesn’t matter. Joey is dead, and I have to figure out what to do before I get caught with a corpse on my hand.

Enter Lincoln Crewes.

After the way we ended, I swore I would never turn to him again. But we were kids then, and in the fifteen years since I’ve seen him, he’s gone from a scrappy fighter to one of the most powerful men in Springfield’s seedy underbelly.

If there’s anyone who can help me right now, it’s Link. With his power, his money, and his connections, I could put this all behind me.
