~ Review ~

5 Stars by Brittany

The Next Sin is the second book in the Sin series. This book was even better than Necessary Sin. There was no way I could put this story down! Bleu and Sin are now faced with the fact that Sin's uncle Abram is after Bleu. Bleu has let her guard down and in unaware that men are coming after her, but Sin has been keeping an eye on her. Finally he decides it's time to tell her that Abram's men are coming for her.

Sin is also there for another important reason. Bleu's head isn't in the game at the moment because her father's illness has taken a turn for the worse. What SIn proposes to Bleu seems absolutely crazy to her. He wants marriage. Will she agree to marry him for her own safety? And will Sin be able to protect her like he promises?

I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. My heart broke for Bleu, but then rejoiced with her. The couple goes on such an emotional roller coaster the whole book that I needed to know what happened next. Even through all the emotions, there are some steamy love scenes that will keep you panting for more. You'll definitely want to read Necessary Sin before reading the Next Sin in order to get the full background of the story. I can't wait to see where Bleu and Sinclair's story goes after this!!

~ Excerpt ~

I touch the screen. I stroke my finger down his face but it feels nothing like the real thing. I close my eyes so I can imagine the way his scruff felt against my skin.

He rarely grew what I would call a beard. He always kept his facial hair short and scruffy. And I loved it, especially when he would drag his face down the center of my body just to hear me squeal. But the best was when he’d push the crotch of my panties aside and rub his chin up and down between my legs.

“Holy shit, Bleu. That’s him, isn’t it?” I jerk when I hear Ellison’s voice over my shoulder. “That’s the man you were with in Scotland.”

I’m so stupid. I can’t believe I’ve allowed her to sneak up and catch me looking at this photograph. I was preoccupied. That’s my only excuse.

Ellison has interrogated me nonstop about my relationship with Sin. I’ve been vague. She’s on a need-to-know-only basis. That means I haven’t told her shit. But I want to. I need someone to tell me this excruciating pain in my heart is going to ease.

“Yes.” That’s my Breck. My admission feels like a ton of bricks lifted from my shoulders.

“Damn. That is one hottie Scottie.”

“I know.” I sigh as I prop my chin in my hand. I look at the handsome face of the only man in this world besides my father who has been willing to take me the way I am.

Two men. Both know the darkness I carry inside. But they love me anyway.

I’ve lost one. I’m losing the other. And it’s killing me.

“My God, Bleu. Look at the way he’s holding you … like you’re his everything. I don’t know how you walked away from him.”

You’d be surprised by the things you can do when you’re staring death in the face.

“My job was over.”

“You haven’t told me anything about it. Or him. Was it good?”

I recall the words he used to describe what being together was like for him. “The best ever.”

“You don’t think you’ll see him again?”

“No.” I won’t if I want to continue to live.
