Review: The Sinner

 


Title: The Sinner

Author: Shantel Tessier

Release Date: November 30 2022



An all-new dark standalone romance from the USA Today & Wall Street Journal bestselling author, Shantel Tessier


LITTLE DEMON


I was raised in a world where money and power are at your fingertips. My father is a LORD, a very respected member of a secret society that knows no bounds. When tragedy struck my family, we discovered we weren’t untouchable. Just when I thought life couldn’t get any worse, I was shown what hell is really like. Then he came and saved me. The devil disguised as my personal hero. But of course, nothing is for free. Not when a soul is up for grabs.


I VOW. YOU VOW. WE VOW.


Easton Bradley Sinnett—Sin—uses his power for his own sick pleasure. Like a typical Lord, he never thought about the consequences of his actions. I grew up with him, obsessed over him, craved him. He was who I pictured when I imagined doing things my body shouldn’t want.


One day, I realized he was not who I thought he was. It didn’t change anything, though, because I was already too far gone. If anything, I fell for him harder. 


Every now and then, someone enters your life who flips it upside down. Sin wrecked me in the worst way, and I thanked him for it by serving on my knees. 


As they say, nothing lasts forever. Men like him never stay with a woman like me. I’m what they use, not keep. So when he threw me away, I shouldn’t have been all that surprised. 


My body had always craved the darker side of love. The kind that left bruises and scars. I was what most would call unholy. And when the devil whispered in my ear that he loved me, I was more than determined to show him just how devoted I could be.



Elli was raised in a world of money and power. Her father was a respected Lord - a member of the secret society. But when tragedy struck her family, she realized how untouchable they weren't, when she was shown what hell was really like. 

But she was saved by a devil in disguise. But nothing is free, and it only costed her soul. 

Sin uses his power for his own sick pleasure. Elli grew up with him, obsessed over him, craved him. Elli craved the kind of love that left bruises and scars. And Sin wrecked her in the worst way. 

I loved this story & loved reading about Sin & Elli's story. It was dark & twisted & I definitely recommend checking the TW at the beginning of the book if you have any triggers bc this book has a ton- if not, go in blind and enjoy the crazy ride. 

Yes this was a stand alone, but I suggest reading The Ritual first to get into the world of the Lord's before diving in. 

Sin was dark, twisted, and perfect. And Elli was the perfect match for him- a Devil and his Demon. And together the steam was unreal. This book was hot - filled with all the k!nk you could want, but also filled with all the twists, turns, secrets and lies that you could only ever get from a secret society. - I loved this book, this couple & this story & recommend it to everyone who revels in the darkness. 

5⭐ out of 5⭐. 

5🌶️ out of 5🌶️.

After five years on the run, I’m caught and dragged back to face the men I ran away from. I thought I was doing the right thing. Now, I’m not so sure. North, Nox, Gryphon, Atlas, and Gabe may never forgive me but one thing is for sure. I won’t ever forgive myself. *Broken Bonds is a full length reverse harem PNR novel with material that may be difficult for some readers. This book will end on a cliffhanger.
