Kill Switch by Penelope Douglas
Release Date: February 11th
Kill Switch, an all-new standalone dark romantic suspense by Penelope Douglas.
WINTER
Sending him to prison was the worst thing I could’ve done. It didn’t matter that he did the crime or that I wished he was dead. Perhaps I thought I’d have time to disappear before he got out or he’d cool off in jail and be anything but the horror he was.
But I was wrong. Three years came and went too fast, and now he’s anything but calm. Prison only gave him time to plan.
And while I anticipated his vengeance, I didn’t expect this.
He doesn’t want to make me hurt. He wants to make everything hurt.
DAMON
First thing’s first. Get rid of her daddy. He told them I forced her. He told them his little girl was a victim, but I was a kid, too, and she wanted it just as much as I did.
Step two… Give her, her sister, and her mother nowhere to run and no fuel to escape. The Ashby women are alone now and desperate for a knight in shining armor.
But that’s not what’s coming.
No, it’s time I listened to my father and took control of my future. It’s time I showed them all—my family, her family, my friends—that I will never change and that I have no other ambition than to be the nightmare of their lives.
Starting with her.
She’ll be so scared, she won’t even be safe in her own head by the time I’m done with her. And the best part is I won’t have to break into her home to do it.
As the new man of the house I have all the keys.
Kill Switch is suitable for readers 18+. While it can be read as a stand-alone, all of the characters are developed throughout the series. The first two books, Corrupt and Hideaway, are now available through Kindle Unlimited!

Excerpt:
WINTER
“I’m sixteen, and I’ve never been kissed.” I put my hands on his chest, feeling my breasts grazing his body. “I waited for you.”
“Winter…”
“I waited for you,” I repeated, panting and brushing his lips with mine. “But I won’t wait forever.”
I layered my lips with his and dipped my tongue out, flicking his lip as I rolled my hips on him. The unmistakably hard ridge of his cock rubbed against my panties through his jeans, and I moaned.
He grabbed me under my arms, holding me up to his face. “That better not be a threat,” he bit out.
And then he took my face in one hand and snatched up my lips, biting my bottom one, almost chewing it like he was starving.
He groaned, I whimpered, and we both gave in, holding each other in our arms, our mouths melting together.
I was fast and clumsy, and I couldn’t keep up with his kisses and tongue in my mouth, but I loved every second.
He nibbled and bit and took with force, gripping the back of my hair to tip my head back and eat at my neck. He moved from my throat to my chin to my jaw and then back to my mouth, and I clutched at his shoulders, tugging on his sweatshirt as I dry-humped him. God, I couldn’t stop myself. He felt so good. It was like an itch that I needed to scratch more and harder.
I tugged at my bow tie, unable to breathe.
Pulling it loose, I unbuttoned my top button, finally feeling freer and diving in, hugging him to where he was sucking on my neck.
My hips moved back and forth, grinding into him
“Winter…” he groaned, pulling back. “I don’t want to…”
I picked up pace, and he grabbed my ass, helping me move.
“Don’t want to what?” I gasped out.
“Make you dirty.”
I slowed, touching his mouth with mine and kissing him softly.
Why would he think that?
“You won’t.” I shook my head, touching his face. “We won’t go all the way. We’ll just play.”
He breathed out a laugh.
I kissed him, and he dug his fingers in again, making my body explode and every inch of skin come alive. God, I loved it when he did that.
My Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Each book in the Devil's night series just keeps getting better and better. I found my self on the edge of my seat, breathless and shocked, through out this whole book. I was not emotionally prepared for this book, but I LOVED every minute of it. Damon and Winter's story was complex, dark, sexy, full of secrets, pain, revenge and hope. These two characters will take you on one hell of a ride.
Damon and Winter life's are interlaced from a young age, and over the years they share more complicated moments with each other. No matter the distant or time, when Damon and Winter are in the same room, the deep bond they share, one they would rather deny, is one that can't be ignored. But no matter the connection they share, their is too much pain and hatred between them. With revenge and even more secrets surrounding them, Damon and Winter's worlds get more tangled together than ever.
This group is connected in so many ways, its complicated, full of lies, secrets, pain, love. Its vulnerable, raw and full of anger. The past keeps finding a way to put this group through hell, but together, the fear and hurt isn't so dark.
Damon is hands down my favorite horseman. I didn't know how well I would like him, but being in his head and finally getting to understand him, made me love him so much more.
He's dark and dangerous, but broken and in need of love. Winter was a wonderful female lead, strong and sassy, she didn't let anything hold her back. A real fighter.
I loved all the twists and turns of this story. It was the perfect blend of sexy, fun and scary. Winter and Damon's story was a captivating, roller coaster ride. And I never wanted to get off. Penelope Douglas is one of my favorite writers, and with each book that I devour and fall in love with, it's proven that she'll always be a favorite.
