The Sinner is a wild erotic ride that isn’t for the faint of heart.
Let’s be honest, plot flow & writing quality aren’t Shantel’s best traits, don’t expect it coming into this or ANY LORDs book.
Heavy on the abuse and trauma Elli has suffered, there is a lot of pain in this book and a lot of moments where you want to hate the MMC (Sin), but you find reasons just like Elli that you can’t let him go (namely his pierced hoo-ha).
The trigger warnings on this read shouldn’t be taken lightly. The sinner is (as per the LORDs series) a twisted journey further into the world of the LORDs and the ending (as per Shantel’s style) continued to throw you right up to the epilogue.
