The Sinner (L.O.R.D.S., #2) by Shantel Tessier Review

This review contains spoilers for The Sinner. A list of trigger warnings is available at the beginning of the book. You can read my review of The Ritual on my blog, here.

I won't even lie, reading the list of trigger warnings in the beginning of the book made me even more excited to read it -- I loved the ritual and when I found out The Sinner was set in the same world, I knew I had to read it. We get to see glimpses of Ryat mentioned throughout the book, since The Sinner takes place at the same time as The Ritual. You can read these as stand alones or consider them a series, whichever you prefer.

It always makes me laugh realizing that Sin -- and Ryat -- are literally seniors in college during their books -- imagine a twenty-one-year-old guy just casually being a part of a secret society where they murder people over twice their age because some rules were broken. Sin is definitely high up on the wild scale -- even before he gets to his senior year, he is doing unthinkable things to Elli while she has no idea who the man behind the mask is.

I used to think that Ryat was literally off the walls wild, but not even one third into The Sinner had showed me that Sin is on another level. He definitely crosses the very blurry line between what is okay and what is not way earlier with Elli compared to how Ryat was with Blakely, but Sin takes it to a whole new level. I really liked that this book took place at the same time as The Ritual, because if you read it already, it provided these extra little details from someone else's perspective without spoiling the book for you. And if you did not read The Ritual, then you get a little taste of Ryat before diving into his story with Blakely.

Sin is literally going feral over Elli at every chance he gets, and my god does this boy have some pent up rage that he needs to release. He is the moodiest twenty-something I have ever seen, and when it comes to Elli and her stubbornness, it really pushes him over the edge. For crying out loud, he threw the girl overboard and then told her there were sharks in the water, and she retaliated by fake drowning only to head butt him as soon as he got her out of the water. There is not enough holy water on this planet to cleanse my mind from what I have read in this book, and as an avid dark and taboo romance reader, that says a lot. If I even tried to step into a church now, I would burst into flames.

The way that Elli was so casual about realizing that Sin was the masked man and the one who killed her stepfather James actually had me laughing out loud because this girl really does not give anything a second thought. James was an awful person and the things that he did to Elli when she was so young made me wish that Sin did more to him than a single gun shot -- he definitely deserved a worse fate that what he was dealt.

Sin is so much worse that Ryat was -- and when I was reading The Ritual, I did not even think Ryat was that bad, definitely a little bit off his rocker, but really cared about Blakely from the beginning. Meanwhile, Sin is committing every crime under the sun and lying to Elli every chance he gets, while also doing and saying some pretty awful stuff to her in the process. Yes, he did a majority of it to protect her and try to keep her safe, but I would say that the tattoo on her back was something I did not love him doing to her.

The smut scenes were significantly crazier compared to The Ritual, and definitely rival scenes in Haunting Adeline. Not even a quarter of the way into the book, I thought I was going to have to wash my eyes out with holy water and by the time I was just over three fourths of the way through, I considered going back to church. Tessier knows her stuff and does not hold back when it comes to pushing the boundaries of dark romance.

You can really see Elli go through it during this book, especially with her dealing with her drug habits and coping with the grooming and years of abuse she went through with so many authority figures in her life. She does not know where else to turn to or understand why she feels and thinks the things that she does, which ultimately leads to her being put in the most insane situations I have ever read. She really cannot catch a break -- it felt like every fifty pages we were finding out that she was assaulted by yet another Lord, and for some reason Sin seemed to think this was somehow partially on her? His logic was all over the place and honestly made me so annoyed with after a couple hundred pages, I wanted him out of Elli's life.

However, the last one hundred and fifty pages or so definitely had my mind changed about him, especially seeing the lengths that he went to in order to try to keep Elli safe and well, alive. He was killing people left and right and striking up deals with anyone who had a pulse at one point, so props to him for the determination on his end. I do wish we got to see just a little bit more of Sin and Elli in the end actually talking about what they both had been through and get on the same page, because it always seemed that Elli was the one drawing the short end of the stick when trouble came about.

If you are looking for a lengthy taboo dark romance, The Sinner is for you -- filled with some of the wildest scenes I have come across, the reader does not know what is in store for them.

Sweet Sin (Monsters & Muses, #0.5) by Sav R. Miller Review

This review contains spoilers for Sweet Sin.

Sweet Sin is a short prequel to Promises and Pomegranates -- it is recommended that you read it before diving into P&P, but ultimately it is up to the reader's choice if they want the background information provided.

Let me tell you, I did not know what to expect from this series, but Kallum ripping off a man's nails and killing him on page two certainly set the scene for the rest of the novella. Now he may have murdered people, and may watch Elena through security cameras in her home, but at least he has the decency to not watch her in the shower! A match made in heaven.

Elena is engaged to Mateo, an incredibly annoying and abusive son of another important mafia family. She clearly has absolutely no interest in him whatsoever, and Kal watches Mateo like a hawk anytime he steps near Elena, especially when he always sees the faint outlines of bruises that litter her body after she is with him. Kal is her family's security/hitman/fixer -- a man of many talents -- and nearly twice Elena's age, making him all the more tempting and very off limits.

To the absolute no surprise of anyone, Kal and Elena are drawn to each other every single time they argue and tempt one another in the most inappropriate places they can find. With a tormented past between them, it only heightens their obvious infatuation with one another, leading to Kal taking her virginity and basically claiming her on every surface he can find.

And Kal... the mouth that man has and the things he says had me speechless. They are feral for each other and that bathroom probably needs to be fumigated and coated in bleach after what they did to each other. So sweet too -- writing her poetry after carving his initial into her thigh -- this is the height of romance, if I do say so myself. Kal is completely unhinged and does not stop himself from doing what he wants to Elena, and that includes having someone right outside the door while he unravels her.

Even knowing that this is a prequel, I was still wishing that it was longer -- the development felt rushed and you are just thrown into the story and have to orient yourself into understanding who everyone is without a solid introduction that you would typically find in a full length novel. It is much shorter than the average novella, being less than one hundred pages where others are usually right under the two hundred page mark. I will definitely be reading Promises and Pomegranates, because boy oh boy I need to see more of Kal and his unhinged actions like my life depends on it.

Gabriel's Redemption (Gabriel's Inferno Series, #3) by Sylvain Reynard Review

This is a spoiler-free review! You can read my reviews for Gabriel's Inferno and Gabriel's Rapture on my blog now.

This is the first time that I was going into a book in this series blind -- as I mentioned in my reviews for Gabriel's Inferno and Gabriel's Rapture, I watched all of the movies before starting the series. Since Part I of Gabriel's Redemption is being released on June 22nd, I did not know what to expect in this installment and was excited to see what was in store for Julia and Gabriel.

Julia and Gabriel seem to be constantly fighting and making up the next day, and a majority of those times I found myself wondering what was happening to Julia's character development and confidence that she acquired during Gabriel's Rapture. She really seemed to finally start to stick up for herself and lose the timidness that followed her, but not even a quarter of the way into the third book do we see her slowly descending in a downward spiral and backtracking on the progress that she had made. She has to compromise with Gabriel on a number of things, and it felt as if Gabriel's opinions and feelings were the only ones that mattered in their relationship.

It only took two and a half books, but the sex scenes finally started moving toward something other than a fade to black chapter. After watching Julia come out of her shell more and more, it was definitely expected to see her lean toward Gabriel's old habits before they got together. I was actually hoping that something like that would happen, because you can only read so many scenes alluding to something more before you start to want to skim the chapters. The scenes were definite improvements compared to the first two installments, and really played into Julia and Gabriel's individual desires.

The side characters are really going through it in this books -- Paul, Tom, Rachel, even Christa. It felt like one blow after another, watching each person suffer right after the other. I do have to admit that I was enjoying the expansion the author made on these characters, as in the previous books they felt like they were being used as stepping stones for Julia and Gabriel, but now they have their own stories to be told. 

Not to mention the number of medical emergencies and issues that side and main characters are going through as well -- I swear, if one more person was in the hospital or seeing a doctor, I was going to be able to graduate medical school by the end of the book. Pregnancy seems to be as contagious as the common cold in this book, with everyone getting knocked up as if the world was in a population crisis. The author went a little overboard when it came to the wellbeing of nearly half of the main characters, making it feel more like a fiction book rather than a romance.

I was really looking forward to Julia growing into herself and becoming just as confident as Gabriel, and the book was definitely headed that way until the third act. Due to a certain circumstance, she withdraws on herself again, and while Gabriel does try to talk to her to the best of his abilities, he is also hiding a number of things from Julia. With both of them harboring their feelings to themselves and stepping around one another, the third act became a back-and-forth of Gabriel and Julia deciding on their lives, while being supplemented by what I consider too many chapters of Paul's perspective. He was an interesting character, but was only a source of argument when it came to Julia and Gabriel's relationship.

Of the first three books, Gabriel's Redemption has the most development for all of the characters by a mile. With the addition of a few new characters, I was hoping that Julia could maybe make a friend or two in her PhD program, especially because she mentioned previously that she was not very close to anyone in her classes. Unfortunately, we do not get to see that, at least on page. It did feel like Gabriel was backtracking on his development towards the end of the book, and he seemed to be getting everything that he wanted, whereas Julia was constantly having to compromise or deal with the consequences of his actions.

If I did not know that there was another book after this one, I would say that the conclusion was pretty solid, save for a few side characters and their own little plots. I do wish that we would have gotten some moments of Julia and Gabriel where everything was going their way and they did not have anything interrupting their lives, but alas, the drama really moved the plot forward.

Gabriel's Inferno Parts I, II, and III, along with Gabriel's Rapture Parts I, II, and III are now available to watch through streaming on Passionflix.

Satan's Affair by H.D. Carlton Review

This review contains spoilers for Satan's Affair. Please read reviews or go to the author's website for more details on trigger warnings. It is recommended that you read the prequel novella, Satan's Affair, prior to reading the Cat and Mouse Duet, but is not required. You can read my review of Haunting Adeline on my blog, here.

I genuinely did not know what to expect or had an idea about what I would think of this book since I was not jumping up and down after reading Haunting Adeline, but I wanted to go back and read the prequel just in case it gave more a little background before I go diving into Hunting Adeline. Compared to Haunting Adeline, I would say that Satan's Affair definitely prioritizes gore and violence in the first half of the book, while the smut takes a secondary priority.

Through the use of her own haunted house and a handful of very attentive henchmen, Sibby is able to take down the demons she finds one at a time in a very particular way. You can tell that while she does let her emotions come through from time to time, she is typically very particular about how she goes about these killings. She certainly is creative, and with the haunted house on her side, she is able to basically do whatever she wants and have her henchmen clean up the pieces.

When Sibby was doing her thing to Gary, I was literally so surprised that he was still conscious and aware of what was happening -- if someone was getting their limbs cut off and bones broken, you would think the pain would have taken them out pretty quickly. She really has a bone to pick with him, especially after overhearing what he did to his girlfriend, Jennifer. There is definitely an up on the gore and violence factor in this prequel, and while I did not find it unbearable, some may find the content a touch too disturbing.

This novella will definitely prepare readers for what is to come in the Cat and Mouse Duet when it comes to both smut scenes and graphic depictions of violence and assault. While the content in Satan's Affair certainly heads towards a blurry line, I would say that it is just getting readers ready for what is to come.

I love that we got to see Sibby watching Zade follow Adeline and Daya through the haunted house -- not really a spoiler for Haunting Adeline, but just one scene that we see in the book that I actually appreciated really after reading Haunting Adeline. To be quite honest, the scenes between Sibby and Zade from her perspective somehow made me like Zade more, and made me even more excited to continue the duology. Looking back, I do wish I read this novella before starting the duology, and I would recommend reading Satan's Affair first just to get a touch of background information on Sibby, but it is entirely up to the reader's preference.

It was such an interesting choice to see that the henchmen were not actually real -- I knew people always referenced a twist with Sibby at the end, but I did not expect it to apply by extension to the henchmen. There were some definite negative connotations made towards Sibby's mental struggles, especially towards the end of the novella when she is in the institution.

Overall, this is a decent introduction to the Cat and Mouse Duet, and provides a quick and interesting read for those looking to get into the taboo genre while still being a little cautious of where exactly they may draw the line when it comes to dark romance.

Gabriel's Rapture (Gabriel's Inferno Series, #2) by Sylvain Reynard Review

This is a spoiler-free review! You can read my review of Gabriel's Inferno on my blog, here.

Once again I am back into this series after not being able to shake it -- the movies are enjoyable and nearly exactly like the books, so I had no surprises coming my way in this book as I have already watched the three parts to Gabriel's Rapture. Compared to the first three movies, I found myself enjoying the plot of the second book a little bit more, even though there were not as many "conflicts" compared to Gabriel's Inferno.

As I mentioned in my review for Gabriel's Inferno, I have watched all movies for Gabriel's Inferno and Gabriel's Rapture prior to starting this series, so the events were of no surprise to me. I actually found that watching the movie before reading the books does not take away from the story, and it was nice to read what was not included in the movie adaptations -- which was few and far between, as the movies are basically scene for scene taken from the books.

I enjoyed diving deeper into Gabriel's character and inner turmoil that continues to follow him as he and Julia work on their relationship and discover more about each other. We get to see a lot of personal development for Gabriel, which was definitely beneficial for him, especially because he continues to be his biggest critic when it comes to romantic relationships and how he treats and views Julia in their own relationship.

Meanwhile, we get to see Julia's own development and finally start to see her stray from her timid nature and become more confident in herself and defending her relationship to a number of people that seem to be constantly interfering at every turn. She is still quite the wallflower, but I think the author did a significantly better job at personifying her in this book compared to the first -- we see a lot less misogyny in this installment, which was a welcomed change, since it was one of my biggest peeves during my read of Gabriel's Inferno.

The author continues to give the readers little glimpses into the side character's perspectives, which add to the story in the sense of being able to view Julia and Gabriel through an outsider's eyes while not straying from our main characters. Paul appears to us once again, along with a number of Rabbit references that continue to drive me up a wall in annoyance. However, the references were significantly less compared to the first book, so I will take it as a win and hope that the references do not follow us to the third book.

Julia and Gabriel go through a number of personal conflicts, along with a major issue that puts a strain on their relationship and tests their love for one another. Outside forces are working against them in hopes that their relationship crumbles just as quickly as it was built, and it seems that Julia continues to get the short end of the stick when it comes with coping with constant blows. Gabriel, while still suffering, seems to be able to find solace and realization much quicker than Julia, but not without having to retreat à la Edward Cullen-style in New Moon.

The sex scenes were on the same levels as the ones in the first book -- we get more scenes, but they are on the more sensual side rather than in the erotic style as seen in Fifty Shades of Grey. You can tell that the author uses the scenes more to development the characters and explore their vulnerabilities, rather than solely to add a sex scene when the plot needs a little boost.

Reynard does not tread lightly when it comes to sprinkling in classics references whenever he can, and it certainly has followed Julia and Gabriel's story in this book as well. Exploring more references through paintings and poems compared to stories, the author enhances their relationship by showing the similarities between Beatrice and Dante that are mirrored in Julia and Gabriel's relationship. The pretentiousness was taken down a notch, but still present enough that you need to pay just a little bit of attention as the references are made if you want to be able to predict where the story is headed.

I am really finding myself becoming attached to these characters, and am even more excited to dive into the third book without having seen a movie adaptation. Gabriel's Redemption: Part I will be available to stream on Passionflix on June 22nd.

Gabriel's Inferno Parts I, II, and III, along with Gabriel's Rapture Parts I, II, and III are now available to watch through streaming on Passionflix.

Black Ice by Becca Fitzpatrick Review

This is a spoiler-free review!

I was in the mood for a standalone novel, and because I will always have a love for the Hush, Hush saga, I knew it was time to dive into Fitzpatrick's young adult thriller. With the tag line of having a forbidden romance with your kidnapper, how could I refuse? And as a lover of the dark romance genre, I knew that this would not cross nearly as many lines as I am used to reading, but all the same I was excited to finally read this book.

Britt is a high school senior, ready to go on her spring break trip up in the mountains with her best friend Korbie... and her ex-boyfriend Calvin. Could it be any more awkward? She plans on putting the past behind her as they go to Korbie and Calvin's family cabin, where she also plans to go on an adventure of her own by backpacking forty miles. A blizzard has other plans for Britt, Korbie, and Calvin, and lands Britt and Calvin with two strangers that are certainly not friendly.

We really get to see how hard Britt fights to stay alive and make sure that she and Korbie have a chance to make it home from the unexpected experience of being essentially kidnapped and snowed in on what was supposed to be a final hurray before senior year came to an end. Britt is prepared to do whatever it takes, and was immediately suspicious of Mason and Shaun, whereas Korbie was using her one brain cell to insult the canned chili after they were "rescued" from the snow.

I have to say, I was so very grateful that Korbie did not play a big role in the book, because if she showed up even more, I would have ripped out the pages before I saw her name one more time. From what we learn from Britt and what we witness from Korbie herself, it is safe to say that she is probably the worst person for Britt to be friends with, especially because Korbie is so insecure that she likes to tear down Britt every chance that she gets. It is obvious that she is a "pick me" and that is further proven when they meet Mason and Shaun.

The pacing of the book was done very well, and it moved in such a way where you can feel the urgency that Britt feels as she runs through the snowy mountain, and especially when she realizes that Mason and Shaun are not the best people to be stuck in a secluded cabin with in the middle of a blizzard. Fitzpatrick did an excellent job in making Britt's internal monologue really come through and show her thought process as she learned more about the men holding her hostage and what exactly they are capable of when no one is watching.

While Britt is smart, I did find myself yelling at the pages a number of times -- she claims to be well prepared for a forty mile trek in the Teton Range, but failed to bring more socks? Maybe it was the fact that they were in the moment of being stranded with no way to call for help, but I personally would have grabbed a few more things before leaving my Jeep behind.

Mason seemed to be a more complex character compared to Shaun, who was very much the brooding type that would sit in a corner and sulk for the rest of his life if he could. We see Mason take a backseat as Shaun runs the show, but not everything is as it seems as the night goes on. With a number of obstacles that are thrown in Britt's path as she tries to get away, she finds herself drawn to Mason in an unexpected way, leading her to do things she never thought she was capable of. The sides of Mason come out as the story moves on, and we gather more and more pieces of who he really is right along with Britt.

As a young adult novel, I would say that a number of twists are predictable if you are taking everything in and cataloging the information that Britt is observing as she and Korbie are being held in the cabin, as well as when Britt is out in the wilderness. I wish the tension was higher between Britt and Mason, and I do think that Fitzpatrick could have upped the stakes when it came to throwing in her curveballs. The constant back and forth that Britt went between Mason and Calvin was making me a little crazy, and if it went on for any longer I would have thrown the book across the room. Even with being predictable, I had a fun time reading the story and it was a great quick read to get me ready for my next book.

Gabriel's Inferno (Gabriel's Inferno Series, #1) by Sylvain Reynard Review

This is a spoiler-free review!

I saw one clip of a scene from Gabriel's Inferno on TikTok, which lead me to binge watching the six available movies on Passionflix in one day. Once I found out that the next movie is being released in two months, I just knew that I needed to read the books. I will say that by watching the movie first followed by reading the book, I was so surprised to see how book-accurate the movie actually was. It was as if they simply changed the format from a novel to script, and kept nearly everything that happened in the book.

There is a ton of POV changing in the book that is not explicitly stated, which was throwing me off as I continued reading. We have Julia and Gabriel's perspectives, but then would randomly get Paul's POV in the middle of a paragraph when he was talking to Julia or when they were in seminar. Since the chapters do not have a designated character's perspective attached to them, you have to go in prepared to listen to anyone leading the story. You can also totally tell that this started out as Twilight fan fiction -- I was able to point out so many scenes that felt like replicas of Bella and Edward's story.

I actually had a lot of fun reading this, despite knowing everything that was going to happen due to my movie-watching over the rainy weekend. Julia is a shy student at the University of Toronto working on her Master's degree, on her way to become a Dante specialist. Gabriel is her Dante seminar professor, riddled with a dark past and an unknowing connection to Julia that he cannot quite place. There is enough tension between the two of them to cause a building to collapse under it, but as they become more acquainted with one another, we see that tension turn from distain to admiration and desire. However, their relationship and the way that they spoke to and about one another felt cheesy -- no one actually calls someone an angel out loud to their family, it was cringy reading a lot of their outside interactions.

Gabriel is extremely hot-tempered when it comes to Julia and anyone who basically interacts with her that may resemble them being interested in her. There are a number of times in the book where Julia is out with Gabriel and his sister, Rachel, and he notices her speaking to a guy and stomps on over to her, asking why she would be talking to them. Each time, she is typically just helping someone out, and since her and Gabriel are not together at any of these points, he looks crazed. He keeps secrets about his past from Julia because for some reason, he thinks she is the picture of purity and that knowing anything bad about him will ruin her forever? There is so much emphasis on the fact that she is shy and a virgin, you would think she would have won a prize for being a saint. You can tell that this book was written by a man through the way he places a level of emphasis on Julia's innocence and Gabriel's supposed torrid past.

Despite the excessive amount of times that both Julia and Gabriel bring up the strict non-fraternization policy at the university, they sure seem to love to run around the city together and be in each other's company whenever they can. I was genuinely surprised when they were not found out during one of their many interactions in broad daylight. They are running around town using the excuse that if anyone sees them together, that they are discussing Julia's thesis topic, since he is her advisor. Personally, if I saw my classmate having a candle lit dinner at a fancy Italian restaurant, her thesis being the topic of discussion would be the last thing on my mind. I also could not stand the emails and text messages that they would send each other -- they were cringe-worthy and did not feel genuine, almost as if they were using classics references in an attempt to impress one another.

Paul, a doctoral student who sits next to Julia in the Dante seminar, constantly refers to her as Rabbit, which he does not ever stop doing and does not explain to Julia why he calls her that. Personally, his little rabbit fetish was driving me insanely and was flashing red flags over his head any time that he interacted with Julia. He becomes very protective of her in the sense that he is romantically interested in Julia and well Julia... she just wants a friend in a new city. It is alluded throughout the book that she has been hurt in the past by a past boyfriend, and as the story goes on, we learn more and more about what exactly she had been through before coming to Toronto.

Julia's relationship to her father is very complicated, and with the extensive background the author gives us about her childhood and issues with familial relationships, we see that played out when she has to talk to her father. He does not seem to respect her boundaries at all, and basically drops her at any chance something else he deems more important comes up. It was disheartening to see her constantly being left behind or her feelings being dismissed by him just because he thinks he knows better.

This is an utterly pretentious book that may leave the reader thinking that they do not understand the context in which Julia and Gabriel speak in. Most of the time, they love using Dante and Beatrice metaphors and references to talk about themselves with each other and with other people. They also have a knack of Botticelli, one of my favorite painters, so I was very much enjoying any time he was brought into conversation. If you do not have a background in classics or Italian studies, you might be unfamiliar with topics discussed, but otherwise I think it should be easy for anyone to understand. It is pretty much just the basic classics knowledge you would find in an article online or just looking up a summary of Dante's works. I was already pretty familiar with the work they discussed, so it was very interesting to see how heavily it impacted Julia and Gabriel's relationship.

I think there was a different level of categorization of being erotic when this book was first published -- if you are looking for something that has a ton of sex scenes, this is not the book for you. Everything in this book is more on the sensual side, with the added touch of high-tension scenes between Julia and Gabriel that fall into the category of just being erotic in essence but not fully played out on the page. However, I think that was a good choice by the author, given Julia's past and Gabriel's constant worry that he will ruin her.

Gabriel's Inferno Parts I, II, and III, along with Gabriel's Rapture Parts I, II, and III are now available to watch through streaming on Passionflix.
