Summary: Angelica Chavez is in hell. At least, that's what it feels like when she discovers her fiance's mutilated corpse in bed with the body of her best friend. Now she has to deal with grief, wrath, and suspicion, as the gossiping tongues of small-town Eden, Georgia turn on a whim. Despite it all, she finds herself thankful to the serial killer in a devil's mask who saw fit to end the cheating couple. But those dark thoughts will cost her. The Devil doesn't take admiration lightly and decides he isn't done with her. And he won't stop until he gets what he wants.

This book is about what happens when the main character of a slasher horror is not a pure and virtuous Final Girl, but a woman filled with grief and hate leading her down a dark path, right into the arms of the killer. This Slasher Erotica is about how people can fall into relationships with people they know are bad. It is a Southern Gothic about the hypocrisy of small-town living, where everyone knows everyone yet no one has empathy for each other. Slasher Horror has often been about big, strong men stalking women, often with a voyeuristic undertone. This book takes that subtext and turns it into text.
