The Sinner

No plot 😭 nothing I hate more than a lacking storyline and the two characters banging constantly like yawn. Just didn’t work for me.

The Sinner is an incredible read that exceeded my expectations. It is very intense with a lot of trauma and PTSD. Shantel Tessier did a great job making me feel connected to the characters and story. I definitely felt all of the emotions, to the point of needing to take breaks at some points to allow myself to breathe.

Elli is an incredibly broken but strong FMC who has been through unspeakable things. Sin is an obsessive and possessive LORD who happens to be Elli's best friend's brother. Elli and Sin have known each other since childhood. They have a complicated relationship, but can they survive the LORDs?

Shantel Tessier delivered another incredibly well written book. The twists and turns were so artistically woven throughout the book that I didn't see them coming. Retrospectively, I appreciated how the tiniest details were foreshadowing larger events and revelations.

Oh my god, I feel like i just got off a rollercoaster after I finished this book. It's been a while since I've read such a plot heavy dark romance. 

I loved the depth to everything in this book. The characters of Elli and Sin, and the plot structure.

Sin is such a complicated character, i loved watching him develop throughout the book. 

Elli is so thoroughly damaged, I felt so much sympathy as I read her character. 

As always with this author, the sex was absolute fire. I love how it's so vastly different in each of her books, with each couple it feels so unique and fresh yet with her style. Shantel Tessier is an author I could never get bored of.

My jaw dropped at some of the plot twists. I loved this book. 

However there were tiny little plot holes I could find, along with a few other things I feel are unsettled in my mind and that lowered my rating a little. 

Also I love the cover. I think it's such a great depiction of the kind of writing this has.

5 ABSOLUTLEY TWISTED STARS!!!!


Make sure you read all the TW at the front of the book.

Then hold on for a wild ride.

“You are my treat, little demon.” He kisses the tape that's over my mouth as it they are my lips. “And you will do as I say.”

I VOW, YOU VOW, WE VOW.

As usual Shantel likes to keep us on our guessing what is going to happen next. There are plenty of twists and turns, you will never see the end coming. Sin is in his game, and owned being a Lord. Elli is the perfect FMC. Chef's kiss!!!!
