The Devil Gets His Due
An accidental pregnancy, grumpy-sunshine romance
Last January, I drunk-married my nemesis—hot, oversized geek Graham Tate. With no memory of how it came about, there was only one run off before he woke up and pretend it didn’t happen. It would have worked perfectly if I hadn’t wound up pregnant.
Graham is the opposite of everything I want in a man—practical, disciplined, frugal—but living with him until the baby arrives has me wondering if, perhaps, I’ve been wanting the wrong things all along. And if that drunk version of me last January might have been onto something.
I never planned to have kids, and I certainly wouldn’t have planned on one with Keeley Connolly—a woman who does not believe in savings accounts or personal safety and thinks Lucky Charms is a health food because of the non-marshmallow bits.
A woman who also didn’t think twice about marrying me in Vegas and ditching me hours later.
I can’t wait to put this behind me and return to my careful, chaos-free life in New York. But the more time I spend with Keeley, the more I’m remembering the things that led me to marry her in the first place…and wondering if I can live without them when this ends.

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.
