Books like The Southern Devil by Diane Whiteside
Morgan Evans, an orphaned war veteran turned respected businessman, once fell prey to a daring hostage takeover by the spirited widow Jessamyn Tyler Evans. After he was spurned for his cousin, Morgan swore revenge. Years later, Jessamyn returns, determined to find a legendary family treasure hidden in Colorado’s hills. She proposes a dangerous alliance: she will marry him in a sham ceremony to gain his help, but only if he submitses to her demands—body, soul, and everything in between. Their pact becomes a perilous dance of power, passion, and revenge.
The novel blends romance, historical settings of the Confederate South, and a treasure-hunting plot, all wrapped in a recurring theme of a "devil’s bargain" between former adversaries.
