Description
A dangerous obsession. Simmering tensions. Twisted vendettas . . .
Detective Jones is back on the scene, obsessed with bringing down Sade for multiple murders. But his relentless pursuit masks a shocking personal connection that drives his thirst for catching her far beyond the bounds of justice.
Meanwhile, Sade is carrying Dante’s baby and is entangled with Atlas—the man responsible for Dante’s accident and amnesia. As Atlas’s behavior grows increasingly erratic and threatening, Sade must decide whether to run or fight.
As Sade finds her way back to Dante, their newfound happiness is threatened as Jones closes in with evidence that could tear their world apart. Now, they must decide how far they’ll go to protect their love and each other. But no one’s hands stay clean for long in this deadly game of cat and mouse. It is now Dante’s time to prove that his devotion knows no limits . . . even if it means adding to the body count.

I have been anticipating this sequel! No spoilers here. Very unhinged characters just as in book one. We watch our MMC and MFC continue to face challenges and uncover hidden information through every twist and turn. B. Love did a wonderful job putting this story together, no detail left unturned, Remained on the edge of my seat throughout with my mouth wide open,

The story flowed well and the characters were well developed. I recommend this book and look forward to more from this author.
****Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an ARC in exchange for my honest review****

The Devoted Husband by B. Love is a masterclass in suspense, obsession, and the raw complexities of love that refuses to die. This isn’t just a sequel—it’s a reckoning.
From the very first page, B. Love grabs you by the collar and drags you deeper into Sade’s world, where loyalty is tested, love is both a sanctuary and a weapon, and revenge is always lurking in the shadows. Detective Jones isn’t just playing cop—he’s playing judge, jury, and executioner, hell-bent on bringing Sade down. But Sade isn’t the same woman from The Loyal Wife. She’s sharper, stronger, and fully aware that her past is hunting her. And then there’s Dante—steady, unwavering, and dangerously in love. He’s willing to risk it all for Sade, but with Atlas circling like a vulture and secrets bubbling to the surface, even the strongest love might not survive.
B. Love doesn’t just tell a story—she builds a world so immersive that you feel every heartbeat, every whispered threat, every stolen moment of peace before the next storm. The tension is palpable, the twists are jaw-dropping, and by the time you turn the last page, you’ll be breathless, conflicted, and completely obsessed. If you thought The Loyal Wife was intense, The Devoted Husband will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about love, loyalty, and survival. A must-read for those who crave stories that push the boundaries of devotion.
Thank you to NetGalley and Black Odyssey Media for the ARC—this one will haunt me for a long time.

THE DEVOTED HUSBAND is B. Love’s sophomoric literary novel was like a crazy rollercoaster ride! It has drama, thrills, and romance for those who love these literary elements. I am one of those people.
I like the storyline, which reveals a significant backstory. It intrigues me enough to continue reading. B. Love has this enchanting way of telling a story. I admire her storytelling a lot.
What I love about this book is the short chapters. It gives readers a better reading experience. I also love how B. Love started the book with a bang and kept the same flow until the end. The ending was good, too. It ties everything together, leaving no loose ends. I like that!
I rate this book five stars and recommend readers to read this novel.

The Devoted Husband is the continuation of The Loyal Wife, and while reading them in order would enhance your experience, I didn’t find my reading experience impacted by starting with The Devoted Husband. This book is a thrilling snowball effect of the life choices we make for those we love and the extreme lengths we’re willing to go for them. It spins a web of obsession, love, and the domino effect of our actions.
First and foremost, the writing will have you hooked. While it may appear to be a romance, at its core, it’s much more of a mystery with twists so deeply rooted in the characters’ lives that not even Sade or Dante could have predicted what was coming. Just when you think things are over and Sade could finally catch her breath, B. Love raises the stakes with one twist after another.
If you’re looking for an addictive thriller that’s impossible to put down and makes you question the lengths we’ll go for the people we love, I highly recommend The Devoted Husband.
