Tali is struggling to finish her novel, and when she is asked to be Hayes Flynn’s personal assistant, she can’t really turn it down- even though he is an arrogant jerk. She is struggling with money. So, she agrees. And she learns that there might be something else under that smug exterior.

I enjoyed this book, and it was a shame that is only 200+ pages. From the beginning, I was hooked and excited to witness this journey. The chemistry between the characters was off the chart and I really loved the build-up of them becoming something more. They had this rapid fire banter. Both Hayes and Tali are two wounded souls who had been burned in previous relationship. Because of that they had lost their trust in people.

At the beginning they had this borderline enemies to lovers relationship. Tali asked to many questions, and Hayes was just grumpy. But something shifted, they developed this sincere friendship, and they had these jokes with each other and found themselves wanting to spend time with each out. This is a romance book, with a happy ending. So, obviously they do eventually get together.

Like mentioned before, I found this to be a little too short. I wanted more. The book is told through the POV of Tali only and I wished we would have gotten insight into Hayes. They both are interesting characters, and I would have liked to have known what was going through his head with all of this.

Final Thoughts

A Deal with the Devil is an entertaining, sexy romantic book with a great romance.
