Devil by Sierra Simone (Paperback)

A dark and provocative romance, Devil explores obsession, desire, and the cost of a single life-altering choice.

Birdie Cooper’s life changed in an instant. One mistake cost her everything—her career, her faith, and the only connection she had left. Now, she survives on the margins, working nights and doing all she can to support her family, cut off from the passions that once defined her.

Ryan Bell has spent years unable to forget her. What began as a fleeting connection grew into something far more consuming, lingering long after Birdie vanished from his life. When a chance discovery leads him back to her, it becomes clear that neither of them has truly moved on.

Ryan makes an offer. A carefully constructed arrangement that promises to solve Birdie’s immediate struggles while giving him control over the one thing he’s never been able to escape—his fixation on her. For Birdie, with little left to hold onto, the decision feels inevitable.

As their lives become entangled once again, the boundaries between control and vulnerability begin to blur. What starts as a bargain soon reveals deeper consequences, forcing both to confront what they are willing to sacrifice—and what they might still hope to reclaim.
