Forced into marriage as a substitute for her twin sister, Valeria Hale finds herself bound to a man feared by all—Mr. Devil.

Rumors of his cruelty and ruthless nature paint a terrifying picture, and she braces herself for the worst. 

But her mystery husband never shows himself.

Instead, she is drawn to his devastatingly handsome assistant, Zane Michaels—a man who embodies everything she has ever desired. 

She knows she shouldn’t want him. She knows she shouldn’t crave his touch.

Yet, she does.

Torn between forbidden attraction and the looming wrath of the husband she has never seen, Valeria fights to suppress her feelings. But her world shatters when she discovers the truth—Zane and Mr. Devil are the same man.

She had fallen for the devil himself without even knowing it.

Now, faced with his deception and the secrets surrounding their marriage and her birth, Valeria must decide—was she merely a pawn in his grander scheme, or was their love the most dangerous game of all?

Mr Devilish's Substitute Bride

“She didn’t do anything,” I frowned, my brows knitting together. “It’s just that—” 


I played the video PR had sent me while the two were having their pillow fight, then handed my phone to Andy. Afterwards, my gaze settled on Val. 


“Someone posted a recording of your confrontation with Jenna online.”

“How’s public opinion?” He turned to me and asked. 


“I have no idea. But when I received the video, it had only spread on a small scale, so I simply asked PR to monitor and guide the discussion.” 


“But that's only a short-term solution,” I added.
