  Every deal has a cost. Every soul has a story. And the Devil remembers all of them. 
  Meet Lucky Beaumont: casino mogul, mother, monster, angel fallen and remade. To mortals, she's a billionaire with a smile sharp enough to draw blood. To those who cross her path, from bullied children to broken men to the wicked who think they'll never fall, she is something far older, far kinder, and far more terrifying than the legends ever dared to tell. 
  In these interwoven tales, Lucky opens the door to her past and present: 
  a lonely girl clutching a jump rope in a ruined church.... 
  a family road trip to a crater where Heaven once broke.... 
  a trio of students caught between a haunted house and a debt long overdue.... 
  and a predator who finally meets something hungrier than himself. 
  Through each story, Lucky writes to the one person she cannot forget: Rafe, revealing the truth behind mercy, monstrosity, and the love that reshaped Hell itself. 
  Gothic folklore, supernatural noir, an intimate confessional combine in The Devil's Memoirs as it pulls back the curtain on the Morning Star and finds not a villain, but a protector; not damnation, but choice.

  After her father's untimely death, she's just inherited his cabaret club—The Primrose—complete with a speakeasy in the basement, made possible by local mob boss Sonny Hargrove. By night, she's managing her father's business while being hounded by a greedy crime lord, and by day, working as a private investigator at her agency called The Sly Fox to help women flee abusive partners and catch their husbands affairs. 
   
   
   
  To make matters worse, she's currently being sued by a client's husband for snapping pictures of him with his secretary and ruining his marriage.
