A seductive tantalizing read that will for sure leave readers begging, wanting, craving, crying, and dying for more of El Diablo!! The devil has truly left its mark as M. Robinson has cemented her place as an author that deserves your full undivided attention. Robinson delivers a sinful and calculating forbidden romance that will haunt and consume readers as hearts will ache, beg, be broken and slowly mended in M.Robinson’s angsty signature.

The Devil. I am not talking about the devil that lives in Hell but I’m talking about the devil that grins and who can seduce you with his bewitching tongue and destroy you with the snap of his fingers. That’s right. I am talking about Alejandro Martinez, aka El Diablo.

If you have read M. Robinson’s previous book, Crave Me, you have already been introduced to the fucking devil himself but if you haven’t read that book, do not worry as El Diablo can be read as a standalone but I do not advise it since you will be missing out on details from the previous book but not that much.

Alejandro Martinez is as cunning and ruthless as they come. He is a sinner. A killer. A liar. An opportunist. To state he is a Machiavellian is an understatement, because this devil is unscrupulous and crafty. He is the snake in the grass waiting to make his deadly bite. Alejandro Martinez is insidious. Duplicitous. Deadly. Canny. He is El Diablo.

When it comes to Alejandro everything is a game. He is the mastermind that is pulling all the strings. He is the King and he rules with an iron hand. But this brutal and deadly sinner didn’t begin this way until he knew first hand that power is key. Power is the only way to control and have your enemies fear you. Power is the only way to protect your heart that is until she entered the picture……

Lexi knows pain, loss, death, sacrifices, and monsters. Her life was never the picture perfect white picket fence that every girl dreams about. Instead, her life was about survival. Surviving to make ends meet and surviving to make her dreams of becoming a ballerina a reality. Hope was her grace and miracles don’t happen to girls like Lexi that is until she comes face to face with the devil himself.

Lexi is the forbidden fruit that Alejandro wanted to taste. She was the epitome of salvation, hope and possibly love. As much as he tried to resist and stay away from her, he couldn’t. She was a siren luring him with her innocence, beauty, and fierce personality. She is the only person who can look the devil in the eyes and not back down. And that alone was enough justification for Alejandro to corrupt Lexi sexually, physically, spiritually, and mentally. She was his instrument to play. And boy oh boy, did he play with her.


As Lexi and Alejandro dances around their feelings for one another, an unraveling of secrets begins to take place. Every lies and sins are exposed. The truth was begging to be told. And how far will the Devil go to protect his secrets? And the answer is simple, he will go to hell and back.


El Diablo is by far the best book that M. Robinson has written to date. She took her writing to another level as she seductively weaves every facets of raw emotions to create a symphony of drama, angst, fourberie, betrayal, love, sacrifice, and unyielding passion. Robinson boldly paints a literary masterpiece where readers are taken down the proverbial rabbit hole where there is only way out and that is through the eyes of Alejandro Martinez. Every action has consequence. Every lie has a truth. And every pain has a reason. And so I urge, no beg you to read this cunning romance that will have you begging for more. And just remember The Devil was once an angel so discover why Alejandro Martinez is the devil in the suit that grins.
