Marcus by Dee Davis: Marcus, he is a pirate at heart and I loved that free spirit about him. He truly longs for those days on the high seas and the freedom he felt. As the younger son of Lucifer, he is excited by the challenge set forth and the power to ‘one-up’ his brothers. As he pursues the Devil’s Delight, a fabled ruby with powers, he needs some help from Cedrik Abbot. What he doesn’t expect is that Cedrik’s daughter, Celeste, will become his treasure hunting partner. Celeste has crossed paths with Marcus before in their quests to secure the rarest treasure items. She tells herself she won’t be pulled into his vortex, she can withstand that charming smile and rakish attitude but she fails.

I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
