Hey HBs! We've got a dark MFM historical pirate romance for you! THE DEVIL'S LUCK by Eris Adderly is a certified bodice ripper, so get ready for discussions of slavery, non-con, dub-con, coercion, sexual assault, straight up on-page R words, the captive/captor trope, general violence against women, other miscellaneous violence, and more. But, you know, it's also hot... and an HEA? Mel didn't love it and Sabrina whimsied hard in the name of enjoying book. You know, the usual! This is part 1; you get part 2 tomorrow!

Lady Loves:

Mel: Rearrange your space! It'll give you a whole new perspective.
