Corrupt: Devil's Night

Corrupt by Penelope Douglas kicks off the Devil’s Night series with a dark romance that leans hard into obsession, power, and razor-edged chemistry.

Erika “Rika” Fane has spent years trying not to look too closely at her boyfriend’s older brother, Michael Crist. He’s a feared, former college basketball star with a talent for making people shrink in his presence. But Rika saw something she shouldn’t have, and she can’t unsee it. Now she’s at college, still watching from the edges, until Michael finally turns his attention her way.

When Rika’s boyfriend leaves for the military, the balance shifts. Old secrets resurface, and the friends Rika helped put away are back out in the world—ready to settle accounts.

Perfect for readers who love dark romance books, enemies-to-lovers tension, morally grey characters, and high-stakes suspense.

Add it to your shelf if you’re ready for a punchy, unsettling, utterly addictive read.
