Morgan Kingsley has been having one hell of a day. She is one of the best Exorcists in the states yet when she is possessed by the King of all Demons; Morgan just knows her life as she knows it went to hell in a hand basket. Secrets are revealed that shock her to the core, her love life is in the pits and the demon she is protecting makes her body so wet it is unfathomable to her mind. Now a bad ass rogue demon is out to get her and the demon inside her, so what is she to do? Why go after him of course, no matter what secrets and truths come out in the open.
THE DEVIL YOU KNOW is the exciting second book to Ms. Black’s Morgan Kingsley series about an exorcist who hates demons only to find out she is already possessed by one unwillingly. Not to mention he is the King of Demons and now there seems to be political coup going on in the demon world against him. It is all up to Morgan to keep him alive and find out the answers to the ever changing question that plagues her. Add in some unlikely helpers, a ticked off ex-boyfriend who wants to know the truth and family secrets coming to light that has Morgan ready to throw in the towel and head out for a really long vacation.
Ms. Black delivers an explosive continuation to her first book, The Devil Inside and I highly recommend you read this one first before THE DEVIL YOU KNOW as it introduces all the principal characters and the start of the entire storyline. Ms. Black writes with a pace that keeps you on the edge of your seat, wondering what will happen next in Morgan’s world as she races against the clock to find the rogue demon, answer questions from her friends and try to keep this sexy demon king from seducing her. All in a days work in Morgan’s mind except it seems her family is about to explode, her life as she knew it is a lie and she has had it up to here with it all. Morgan is one of the freshest characters this reviewer has read. Kick ass, independent with a bad attitude to match, she gives hell no matter whom she is talking to or kicking some demon butt. The secondary characters keep the flow fast and the story line moving as Morgan interacts easily with them all. The reader gets a sense of the conflicts and emotions that rest inside Morgan as she tries to keep the ones she loves safe from harm while she tries to fight a war that is coming at her from all sides.
If you enjoy a series that has multidimensional characters, fast pace and evolving storyline with lingering questions at the end that has you racing to see when the next one is out, then grab the Morgan Kingsley Series and make sure to hang on tight….the ride is about to get bumpy!
