Beautiful Devil

A Misfits Standalone

De: Rachel Leigh

Narrado por: Kelsey Navarro Foster, Gabriel Spires

Two sports collide when a feisty sideline cheerleader meets her match in an arrogant hockey player who is more than just his bad-boy reputation.

I fell for the wrong Devil…

Hayes Madden was never on my dance card. He's an egotistical jock who plays for the Devil's hockey team—not to mention, he's my boyfriend's biggest rival. His sculpted abs and charm do nothing for me. Besides, I'm a cheerleader, not a puck bunny.

When a very graphic video of me and my ex is sent to the entire student roster at Rosewood U, rumors quickly spread and, to my surprise, Hayes is my unlikely knight in shining armor.

Before long, I find myself falling for the hidden side of him he doesn't let anyone else see.

It's time for me to learn if this is all a strategic act of revenge against his nemesis or if Hayes really is the beautiful devil I've fallen for.

Beautiful Devil is a deliciously sexy, ex-boyfriend's rival, new adult, hockey romance by USA Today and international bestselling author Rachel Leigh.

I listened to this book in less than 12 hours.The narration was absolutely phenomenal. It brought out lots of laughter, had some emotional moments, steamy scenes, and, of course, drama. I couldn't put it down.

The moment Hayes and Brogan get together, he messes up, and she starts dating Kamden, who is Hayes nemesis and the absolute worst human being EVER. Kamden likes to be a d!ck, so when he does the absolutely worst thing any person could possibly do, Hayes is there to help Brogran seek revenge.

Hayes was a little arrogant in the beginning, and I wanted to slap it right out of him. But then our boy fell fast and HARD for our feisty little cheerleader. Their chemistry was off the charts.

Brogan is such a strong FMC. I loved her take no shit attitude, except I did feel like she let Kamden off the hook a few times too many when she should have kicked his ass to the curb.

♡ Thank you, @valentine_pr_ and @rachelleighauthor, for the ALC! ♡

Tension, drama, and a devil you’ll love!

I tandem read Beautiful Devil and listened to the audiobook, and honestly, I’m so glad I experienced it both ways. The story already had me hooked, but the narration by Kelsey Navarro Foster and Gabriel Spires elevated the emotional tension, sharp banter, and all those simmering, charged moments. Both brought something special to Brogan and Hayes—especially in the more intimate, emotionally raw scenes. Their chemistry in audio just worked.

As for the story, this one delivers all the delicious tension you'd expect from an ex’s rival setup. Hayes is exactly the kind of emotionally unavailable, cocky jock who doesn’t believe in love—until, of course, he meets the one girl who flips his entire worldview upside down. Brogan is strong, stubborn, and absolutely holds her own. I appreciated how she navigated loyalty, heartbreak, and unexpected connection, even when things got messy.

And oh, do they get messy.

The emotional arc is where this book really shines. It’s not heavy on spice—though let’s be honest, I can’t imagine a Rachel Leigh book without some steam—but the push-pull tension, heartbreak, and redemption absolutely land. There were moments that made me pause and re-listen just to catch the nuance in a line or the vulnerability beneath the surface. Hayes opens up in a way that feels earned, and Brogan’s refusal to settle for less makes her incredibly easy to root for.

There are twists I didn’t see coming, and while I might’ve wanted one or two more fiery moments in the writing itself, the overall arc was satisfying. The dynamic between Brogan and Hayes—enemies, allies, something more—carries the emotional weight of the story beautifully.

If you’re in the mood for a college romance with emotional tension, satisfying character growth, and narration that brings it all to life? Beautiful Devil is absolutely worth the listen.
