This one was a little better than the first one for me, I was able to listen to it for longer periods of time so I could follow it a little better. However I am not sure where this series is going, I mean I can guess, but I think maybe it is getting drawn out over 3 books.

This is pretty decent, not the best "enemies to lovers" I've read. But it is entertaining. Characters are pretty good.

There was so much happening back and forth with the plot that it was confusing me. The pieces of what happened in the past are falling into place though. I like that it's so complicated; it stands out from other books with a similar narrative style.

I read this book in one sitting! Took me all day but I couldn’t move away. It very much feels like a middle of a trilogy book, continues with the plot but doesn’t end the story, yet it was a great addictive read.
Without giving out spoilers, Lincoln realizes where he’s been failing Whitney, in not trusting her, when she should be the person he trusts the most. He has an ingrained impulse not to trust anyone, taught to him by his grandfather Commodore. During the book, he realizes he has to break away from many of his old habits if he wants to retain Whitney.
Whenever Whitney faces a situation, she has one of two instincts: fight or flight, yet she mostly uses the flight instincts. She tends to want to run to escape from problems. She’s under siege, from the press and the Riscoff family and her cousin Karma. In this book, she’s also trying to break from her flight instinct and trust Lincoln to have her back.
This couple grows as a couple, pardon the redundancy, improving their relation in trust and love, but they have many enemies and circumstances that fight against their being together. Their only allies are Jackie (Whitney’s aunt), Cricket (her cousin), and McKinley (Lincoln’s sister). Everyone else in town is against their relation, and the biggest opposition comes from Lincoln’s mother.
The pace of this book was fast, the writing compelling, the love story inspiring and hot. I love Whitney and Lincoln as a couple, even though I wanted to shake Whitney a couple of times. She’s kind-hearted, generous, and her intentions are good, but all her tribulations as a Gable, as Ricky’s wife, and as Lincoln’s shorn girlfriend really did a number on her.
What makes this book so riveting is the evolution of Lincoln’s and Whitney’s love story in the midst of family intrigue and opposition. The book proceeds in dual POV’s and alternates between present and past times, moving on from where the first book begins. We get insight on many situations as the book progresses, yet there are still many mysteries to solve. And of course, we get another spectacular cliffhanger to leave us reeling and waiting impatiently for the finale.

After that cliffhanger of an ending in Richer Than Sin, Whitney Gable and Lincoln Riscoff find themselves in a quandary of sorts in Guilty as Sin, the second novel in the Meghan March-penned Sin series. I also find myself in a quandary of my own writing this review because I have to be extra careful about what I mention because I don’t want to spoil either of the two books now available in the series. Gah! This is proving to be a really frustrating endeavor, but I shall try my best to get my feelings across, especially since this great series has gotten even more awesome!
And yes, I know that my reviews for both the Sin books give very little away, thereby making it somewhat difficult for a newbie to either the series or to Meghan March’s writing to have an idea about what they’re getting into. So, let me break it down into two important points: First, this series needs to be read in order because all three books tell the story of Whitney and Lincoln, the generations-long feud between their families, and the secrets that could destroy them, and second, March’s writing? Well, it hasn’t disappointed me (so far). Guilty as Sin receives five-plus stars. ♥

More! That is the word of the day with this book. More angst. More suspense. More steam. More questions. Everything is heightened in this story. While some questions are answered, we are left with more and once again left with a cliffhanger that leaves me wanting more. I absolutely cannot wait to read the next story and to see what Meghan has in store for us next, because I can never even be able to begin to guess. I am loving this series!
