An epic tale of revenge and love in a new romantic trilogy
from the New York Times best-selling author of The Beauty Series.
Bleu MacAllister is in hiding less than three months when
Sinclair Breckenridge discovers her whereabouts. Her former lover, the future
leader of a criminal organization known as The Fellowship, resists the tug of
his heart heartstrings in her direction. Instead, he opts to watch over his
beloved from afar. And she has no idea. But Sin's sacrifice is short-lived. His
bonny lass is a hunted traitor. He fears Abram's assassins are closing in,
leaving him with one solution for saving Bleu--make her his wife. Marriage
seems an easy fix for their dilemma but wedded bliss is brief when the couple
finds trouble lying in wait beyond the realm of the brotherhood. Will the
original revenge seeker find herself the object of collateral damage?
Review: 4.25 of 5 stars
I was gifted a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. I fell in love with Sin and Bleu in book one, The Necessary Sin. I was pretty upset with the cliffhanger, but luckily I already had book 2 to start so I was super happy!
The Next Sin begins right where the The Necessary Sin ends. Bleu has returned to the US and is hiding from The Fellowship while taking care of her dad that is dying from cancer. She thinks she is being pretty sneaky and blending in with others by hiding in plain sight. Little does she know that Sin has been keeping an eye on her and knows exactly where she is hiding. The reunion is perfect and I was so happy that they reconciled their differences.
Sin is one of those characters that you fall for even if you don't want to....just like Bleu does. We all know that he is in The Fellowship, the Scottish version of the mafia and we know he does horrible things but he is such a great character that he gets a pass. Does anyone else read this with a Scottish accent in their mind?!?
Sin really makes me love him even more when he goes to Bleu's dad in the hospital and talks to him about the "situation". It gives you a clear look into the type of person he is deep down. He is a merciful and honorable man that was born into a world he couldn't escape.
Once they return to Scotland together the book really picks up. It is a roller coaster ride of emotions. I was glad to see that Bleu and Sin work together and really love each other deeply. I was dying to know if I was right about who killed Bleu's mom, and of course we are left with another cliffhanger. I can't wait to see what happens in The Last Sin!

Excerpt One:
Bleu’s POV
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.
