DEVIL'S VICE BY MINDY PAIGE
Review to my Goodreads:
Dark romance between Lillith, an intern working in the Emergency Room, and Kain - a patient she saved. Kain is mysterious and has a dark pull but Lillith cannot stay away from him, even when Lillith discovered that Kain is part of a Motorcycle Club/Gang that she should avoid.
Reading the first few chapters of this book is a rush! I keep on guessing on what happens next for every turn of the page.
However, there are some things to consider before reading this specially for its triggers.

Summary From The Book: (From Goodreads)
When Lillith Harper saves the life of the deadliest member of the Hellfyre Motorcycle club, his appreciation quickly turns to obsession. The main problem? It's not entirely unwelcome. Even when people around her start to turn up missing. Or worse-dead.
There's something familiar about the scarred man, but Lillith can't seem to put her finger on it. Not that she's trying too hard.
Instead, her focus is on juggling the responsibility of her new position while battling the twisted desire at the thought of her masked stalker. But she's about to find out that when you dance with the devil for long enough, you pick up some of his habits.
My Thoughts:
I am new to dark romance and suspense/thriller kind of book but I started reading this genres after Verity. This is my next book of dark romance after Verity.
I was not expecting how dark and twisted the plot is but it got me hooked.
The story is about Lillith, a medical intern, saving the life of a patient named Kain. Kain who got enthralled by Lillith, stalks her and drags her to his dark ways. The plot continues as Kain and Lillith’s relationship develops…slowly! So yes, this book is a slow burn.
It is a quick read since I want to keep guessing on what happens next for every turn of the page.
Book has explicit sexual scenes and a lot of profanities used, mentions of rape, child neglect/abuse, illegal trafficking. Also contains murder/death, family death, violence, stalking, kidnapping, drugs, and deception.
The point of view is dual and alternates between Kain and Lillith. Although one chapter is from Ghost’s point of view.
My favorite character for this story is Ghost - there is something about him that makes me intrigued and I am wishing he will have his own spinoff story.
Both Kain and Lillith have slight character development for me. Kain might be morally gray but I did not see him fully redeemed yet.
The most memorable scene for me is when Drew’s true nature was uncovered.
What do I think of the title Devil’s Vice? Given Kain’s obsession with Lillith and vice versa, they were both playing something wicked and I think the title fits the story well.
The book is mainly dark romance with a lot of spiciness!
My Favorite Line/s:
"I'd find you in every lifetime, little flower. You shouldn't have worried about that. It was only see you later and never goodbye.” - Kain page 345
Rating: 3/5 The story plot is good and honestly I would still read the next books (and wishing Ghost will have his own story too) but there are parts that are too long or dragging for me specially during the end part that feels a little redundant for me.
Spiciness: 5/5
Recommendation: To those who loves red flag relationships, kidding aside - it is for people who loves dark romance with action.
