The Devil You Know
There’s a devil on my shoulder, and every Monday morning she announces herself. She’s this delicious flame in my chest, a flurry of whispered suggestions in my ear. Suggestions I ignore…because every single one of them is about Ben Tate.
Ben—Stealer of Clients, Evicter of Homeless Women, Nemesis. Sitting across from me every damn Monday with his lovely, smug smile and his too-perfect teeth, the living symbol of everything I hate.
It’s been my policy to avoid him, but when a case comes into the firm—one that could change his career and mine—I make an exception. It means weekends and evenings by his side. It means enduring his smirk and his smart mouth and never taking the bait.
Until the night Ben says, “Beg.”
And that devil on my shoulder decides to make a few demands of her own.

Elizabeth O'Roark
Elizabeth O’Roark writes the kind of romance novels that pull readers in with sharp banter and irresistible chemistry, then keep them turning pages long after midnight with emotional depth and vulnerability. Best known for Waking Olivia and the bestselling Deal With the Devil, her stories often feature alpha heroes who hide their scars behind gruff exteriors and women who are complex, flawed, and fiercely alive.
Her path to writing wasn’t direct. Before publishing her first novel, she built a career as a medical writer, creating content about procedures and diagnoses. That precision with language and detail now slips into her fiction, giving even her most escapist plots a grounding in reality. She lives in Washington, DC with her three children, balancing family life with a steady output of romances that span from the sun-soaked beaches of The Summer Series to the time-twisting turns of The Parallel Series.
