Book Description It's business as usual for crime boss Cain Casey, as she maneuvers to form an alliance with Ramon and Remington Jatibon and secure peace among the ruling families in New Orleans . Cain's new associate Remington Jatibon is a lot like Cain used to be-- a playgirl with a passion for bedding beautiful women and an even greater passion for expanding her father's empire, on both sides of the law. When Remi meets Dallas Montgomery, a budding actress working for the studio Ramon Jatibon has just acquired, she finds that there's more to Dallas than is included in her press pagers.
Meanwhile, on the home front it's anything but normal as she and Emma hope to conceive their third child. Little do they know an old enemy is about to surface who wants revenge on Cain and what better way that to take what she values above all else--her wife.

You can never have too much Cain! May 6, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
After anxiously waiting, Ali Vali give us what we crave - more Cain and the Casey Crew in Deal with the Devil. This 3rd book in the series is satisfying yet leaves the reader wondering why Ms. Vali decided upon this specific ending. It almost is anticlimatic when the last 20 pages ( or last 2 chapter) is thrown at us. Was there a deadline that had to be met? I felt rushed at the end of the book like when the cleaning staff wants you to leave the theatre at the end of the movie. I wanted to savor this delicious tale and all its characters to the fullest. I definately recommend this book and hope you find it as filling as I did.
I Loved It! May 3, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Having read the first two books of the series I really looked forward to the release of the third book. I was not disappointed. I didn't want it to end - a sign of a great book. I loved it!
This book introduces new characters and delves further into characters previously introduced, bringing them together with Cain and Emma for a continuation of the Casey Family Saga. Cain is the perfect host, the passionate lover and the strong hand. She's a butch with superior wit, who's a romantic but also both judge and jury if her wife Emma and their children are threatened.
Emma is supportive of Cain's family business and will support any steps taken to keep her family safe. She sees a side of Cain that no one else sees except the reader who views the romance between them and the vulnerability that Cain may sometimes show.
Remington Jatibon, one of the twins from the Jatibon Family and a friend of Cain's, meets Dallas Montgomery, a rising actress, and falls for her hard while unsure of her motives and who she really is. Remi is the heir apparent of the Jatibon family, her father and twin brother letting her take the active role, and teams with the Casy family in business.
The FBI is persuing them as usual but a bigger threat is on the horizon.
This book is a keeper. I can't wait for the next one, which Ali Vali has said she will write. Buy it. You won't regret it at all. I loved it!
Awesome read from a talented Author May 2, 2008 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
Are you people crazy? This is a MUST read book, the third in the series. Ali Vali continues her series with fast-paced action, hot-errotic sex scenes, devotion to duty, honor amoung thieves, and undying love for family. Tension builds as C Casey is again pitted against the FBI and underhanded and dishonest drug runners. Despite her questionable career, Casey again comes out looking like the good guy (butch) she is. The depth of passion in which she loves and adores her family is honorable. Her wife Emma, keeps her heart safe, her mind sharp and her conscience alive. The execution of Casey's planning is smart, entertaining and full of twists. Ali Vali Keep you on the edge of your seat with twists and turns that are entertaining and well developed. New characters and passionate lovers are introduced to keep the saga fresh and exiting. A definate *****+ in my mind. Devlyn
Actually thought it was a better book April 29, 2008 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
Unlike the previous reviewer, I actually thought this was a better book in the series. The action was good and seemed well paced. What is particularly intriguing is the way Vali builds the characters. Sometimes you have to remind yourself that these are actually supposed to be "bad" people. Cain Casey and Remi Jatibon are criminals, but they have a code of honor that's stronger than most of the law enforcement officals in the book. Of course, this is a book about New Orleans where the police have a reputation. Cain and Remi almost come off like Robin Hood characters. You know they're breaking the law, but it seems OK. I did wonder that most of these crime lords have females as their chief body guards, but I'm not surprised about the rest. I know many gay people who deliberately go to other gay people for their services, medical, legal, etc. I keep remembering what a writer friend of mine always says, it's fiction, anything is possible. The ending was a bit rushed for all of the build up it was given in the book, but overall this one is worth reading.
Only three stars for this sequel April 20, 2008 2 out of 8 found this review helpful
A third novel in the Cain crime family saga; unfortunately, this one wasn't as good as its two predecessors.
Cain and Emma are back, as are Hayden and Hannah. This time, the action focuses more on the supporting characters of Remi Jatibon, Anthony Curtis (a rogue FBI agent), Muriel (Cain's lawyer cousin), Shelby (another FBI agent who has the hots for Muriel), Bob (what a slimy piece of work!), and Dallas Montgomery, an actress with a secret past.
The action flowed in this novel...it just seemed a bit forced in places.
And another thing...are all the hot, good looking lesbians located in New Orleans? Is New Orleans really a hotbed of lesbianism?? The female doctors, female lawyers, female FBI agents, female bodyguards, and female crime figures are all great looking, hot-to-trot lesbians??? Jeez, I like the fantasy life as much as anyone, but come on. It needs to be better balanced in places. It felt like "The L Word--New Orleans" at times, y'know??
Vali did leave it open for a fourth book. I hope that one will be more like books one and two.
