Product Description
Drug dealer? Hooker? Blackmailer? Kenna Jones was the last person to have contact with a murdered federal informant and DEA Agent Drake March goes undercover during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally to find out just what her relationship to the dead man was. One problem--from the moment Drake encounters the gorgeous, hot-tempered chameleon--he doesn't trust her--or his immediate attraction to her. Kenna's situation can't get worse. Posing as arm candy for rich bikers is a humiliating way to earn tuition. But the financially strapped grad student has no choice. And it appears too-sexy for his badge Agent Drake March isn't giving her a choice either. He threatens to have her arrested if she refuses to cooperate in his investigation. But bullets fly and Kenna's life is in danger from an unknown threat. Drake's protective instincts kick in when he realizes sweet Kenna is innocent--and in far over her head. Lust, fear and desire make for a volatile combination in the hedonistic atmosphere, leading Drake and Kenna into taking a dangerous ride on the wild side--with explosive results. With their lives at stake, will they learn to trust each other before it's too late? Or will the devil come calling and finally get his due?

 Running With The Devil-A Joyfully Recommeded Title! October 15, 2007

Kenna Jones cannot believe her instant attraction to this man who "claims" to be one of Jerry's friends, but there is absolutely no way that she can deny those feelings. Kenna met Jerry a year ago while she was escorting him around Sturgis. Kenna really is not an escort, but she needs the money to pay for grad school.
Drake March is an undercover DEA agent trying to bring down a ring of drug dealers who go by the name of Diablo. Kenna is the agency's only connection to the group since Jerry ended up dead. Drake wants Kenna, but he does not mix business with pleasure...usually.
Drake "convinces" Kenna to be his escort like she was for Jerry as he attempts to find out exactly what she knows. Kenna is not happy about being forced to be Drake's escort, but he promises to pay her and she needs the money to pay for school. As Drake and Kenna work together their attraction becomes too much to ignore. Drake brings out a side of Kenna that she has never experienced, but she worries he is only attracted to her "Kenna" personality not the real person. Drake cannot believe he has let things go so far between them, but he just wants more and more of Kenna. As the investigation heats up, Kenna's life is put in danger. Will their relationship be strong enough to survive or is it just the circumstances that are making their emotions run so high?
Running with the Devil was a hot, hot, hot read!! Kenna is a sexy woman who seems a little naïve about the world around her. Drake is smoking sexy and pretty much all man who believes in getting the job done at any cost. The sexual tension between these two was great and I really enjoyed the Sturgis backdrop. Lorelei James knows how to write fun, sexy, and hot stories with characters you want to get to know better. I absolutely loved Running with the Devil and I cannot wait to read more Lorelei James!

There was alot of suspense in this book, trying to figure out who the villian was. It had good hot sex and kept you reading. Hard to put down.

I love Lorelei James and this is one of her best books. The scenes are so steamy you have to stop and fan yourself. This book is not for the people who buy a book and skip over the sex scenes or you will be skipping over most of the book. However this is also not one of those books that have only sex and no story line. The book grabbed me on the first page and kept me till the end. A must read if you are into erotica with a good story.

A fast paced, erotic adventure straight out of the movies, RUNNING WITH THE DEVIL is an edgy thriller of mistaken impressions and undercover lovers. Drake and Kenna are a perfect match in every way. They are passionate, opinionated, cynical and intelligent. He is a cynical undercover agent who tends to believe the worst of people while she has a serious trust problem as well. It is an action packed journey with numerous twists and turns to solving the murder and finding love. The emotional connection is poignant and the sexual chemistry is volatile. The secondary cast is a well rounded group indicative of a traditional Sturgis Bike Rally. One wonders if author Lorelei James visited there on more than one occasion. All in all, RUNNING WITH THE DEVIL is well worth the time and money invested. If you like suspense and passion, you will love this one.

OMG, this was a seriously hot read! Ms. James sure knows how to write steamy love scenes, and I'll never look at a motorcycle the same way I used to do before I read this book... ;)
I'm not going to give a plot summary here because the book description available on GR does the job pretty well. The story had a good setup and the mystery/suspense part was interesting, even though I guessed who the villain was pretty easily - that's what happens when you have very few secondary characters. There were some gripping moments when Drake had to stand aside and let Kenna be mauled by some bad guys, and I really related to her "discomfort" - to put it mildly. I understood his need to keep his cover but Kenna wasn't an undercover agent, so I almost hated him for having forced her into that situation. Anyway, she made him see "the errors of his way" and they had the most sizzling make-up sex on a motorcycle... Oh boy, what a ride! *fans herself*
Drake was one hot DEA agent who had never had problems focusing on the job to be done - until he met Kenna... What I loved about him was, he wasn't a sex machine who lived his life fooling around. Granted, he enjoyed a healthy sex life as much as the next guy, but he wasn't like the popular manwhore in Romancelandia who only decides to redeem himself after he finds "the one". Kenna was sexy and funny at first, but the more I knew her, the more she grated on my nerves. I'd like to say that she was too naïve but, truth be told, she came across as a bit stupid to me. Come on, did she really think an escort service that provided only escort services was for real? Sorry but that was too far-fetched to buy.
Overall, I enjoyed Ms. James' writing and I had a great time reading this book - the sexual tension between Drake and Kenna was great and that's what I want to see when I read a romantica story. This was my 1st book by this author but it won't be my last.
