This was a good read. I couldn’t wait to see if Skylar could get through to Sandro. I loved the way the author brought the father and son to some type of understanding within their relationship as well.

In Sinful Seduction, Skylar Lawrence is in a precarious situation. Right before he shipped out to Afghanistan, she broke up with her fiancé, Antonios (Tony) Davies. Soon after he was killed by an IED that hit the convoy containing he and is twin brother Alessandro. Tony never took Skylar out of his will and now she is part owner of his family home in the Hamptons, along with Sandro. After weeks of not having her phone calls returned, Skylar arrives at the home with every intention of signing over her share and closing that chapter of her life. When she arrives on the twins' birthday, she finds Sandro missing his brother and suffering from a severe case of survivor's guilt. Seeing him again for the first time in almost two years reminds him of their first meeting and the undeniable chemistry they shared. That chemistry is what convinced Skylar that Tony wasn't the right man for her and led her to call off their engagement.
This novel sets itself apart from others by broaching the very timely subject of our veterans returning from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the post traumatic syndrome that many suffer. It blends these serious issues seamlessly with the the story of two people trying to fight their attraction for each other because of the loss of someone they both loved.
The sequel, Sinful Temptation, will be out in February.

This was a very interesting and intriguing story. It was passionate, emotional, and even a little intense at times. Sandro and Skylar had a powerful connection and chemistry that just couldn't be denied, no matter how hard they tried to fight it. Well, at least that's what Sandro tried to do, but Skylar (once she knew their feelings weren't just lust or a "passing fancy") put the gauntlet down, and he was powerless to resist. This kind of relationship could be kind of tricky, especially since Skylar was once engaged to Sandro's brother. However, I never got that "this is so wrong" vibe from this story. It was written with all the inner turmoil and anguish one has when a man is trying to close off his feelings for a woman his brother once loved.

Fun series starter - I think the second Davies twin will be my favorite, but I enjoyed the many ways Sky challenged and stood up to Sandro. Happy to have found a new contemporary romance author I can enjoy!

Wow!
I have never read Ann Christopher but I am so glad I did. This book was amazing! The depth of the characters, the beautiful storyline and even the twists and turns, were refreshing. I can’t wait to read more books in this series.
