DATE WITH THE DEVIL was a really great story. Sterling, the hero, was the perfect alpha male because he was both a warrior and a lover (not to mention HOT!!). Deirdre, the heroine, was a beautiful intellectual whose inner warrior was brought out by Sterling when they were stranded on an island in the Bermuda Triangle. There was even a touch of the supernatural when they encountered a very old, deserted clipper ship. (I literally got goose bumps when I read this part.)The story was written very well and, although there were some editing mistakes ("we'll" was written "well" several times, for example), they did not interrupt the flow of the story. The characters had well-developed, complex personalities, the dialogues were sharp and authentic, and the imagery was exceptionally vivid and realistic. The sexual scenes were tastefully done and there was no profanity.Overall, I enjoyed reading this story very much and I would recommend it to anyone who likes contemporary romance.
