The Devil Wears Black by LJ Shen

BOOK REVIEW

Every single goddamn time - LJ does it again. She has a way of bundling the heroine and your own emotions together in a way, your not only rooting for her but yourself!!


Devils Wears Black does not disappoint in any way shape or form. It's to good to be true for life to go just the way you expect, everything is going smoothly for Maddie Goldbloom; she has the apartment, the boyfriend and job she's been dreaming of while trying to forget her past. Until Chase Black comes flying back in, with a magnitude of requests but only one they both don't see coming!!


Mixing familiarity and recklessness the fire between Chase and Maddie is explosive. There is just something about these two that has you grappling page after page, with unending amounts banter and sexual innuendo worth holding onto. A second chance romance mixed with a fake relationship is a recipe for destruction but this fast-paced rollercoaster ride is worth every minute.


Maddie is the kind hearted, warm ray of sunshine to the cold, dark exterior Chase Black shows to the world. Chase Black is cruel in all the right ways, at times you're left reeling, with the way Maddie just allows things to digress, however all I will say is take a deep breath and just wait......everything happens for a reason and by the end I wouldn't have it any other way.


"The Grass is always greener through someone else's Instagram Filter. No-one has their shit together. Fully, anyway. We're all just pretending we know what we're doing. Those of us who do it with a smile on our face just look like we're enjoying it more." The depth of character and emotional exploration tethers you to their story.


LJ is the Queen of sarcasm, witt and angst!! Which TBWB delivers in every form. Prepare to be completely and utterly enthralled with Chase Black!! Finding yourself in the depths of love, loss and pain is the true beauty that this delivers. This is a standalone romance by LJ Shen and the perfect introduction into the emotional, gut wrenching, heartfelt world LJ creates!!
