Shel: To the handful of you who read our blog: I apologize for spazzing out when it comes to reviewing The Original Sinners Series books. I know that I must be incoherently babbling for sentences and you're just thinking:
...uhmmmmmmm, sorry? I can't help it. I feel like I have to explain EVERY thing and before I know it? I'm too many scrolls down and you're bored. So, thinking about that, I decided to just get to the point.
Do you need to read the previous books in the series? No. SHOULD YOU? Absolutely.
How's the writing? Great. Fantastic. Her style is a nice mix of description and dialogue and interior monologues; not one of those gets out of hand or becomes too much. The pacing is really great and she kept me on my toes as she flipped between past and present and the Kingsley + Soren story and the Wes + Nora stories.
Was it sexy? Do bears shit in the woods? Of course it was sexy. Honestly though, I was way more interested in what was going on with the plot and characters than I was about when and how they'd have sex. I KNOW, I KNOW. WTF is WRONG WITH ME?!
What about the story? I love how Tiffany Reisz engrosses me in the stories of Soren and Nora and Kingsley..and in this case Wes. Even though it's been a few weeks since I've read The Angel, I wasn't lost or confused at all. I was completely immersed in their world--I had serious tunnel vision and nothing really existed as I was reading. I loved how Kingsley's story mirrored a lot of what was going on with Wes--that constant wondering and insecurity mingling with the confidence of their love in Soren/Nora . I loved how Kingsley characterized Nora too--it's obvious that even though he has a deep-seated resentment towards her, he also respects and admires her too. This novel continued to fill in lots of the history of these characters while also engaging us in the here and now and being very curious about what would happen next. ANYWAY (sorry, y'all, I get carried away). The story also answers WHO STOLE THE FILE from Kingsley and just when I am thinking how the hell is she going to end this?!!! The ending happens and I was all:
YEP. Seriously. I cannot wait to get to The Mistress.
If you've stuck with me this far, thank you. Read this series. It's fanfreakingtastic.

SYNOPSIS:
Wes Railey is the object of Nora's tamest yet most maddening fantasies, and the one man she can't forget. He's young. He's wonderful. He's also thoroughbred royalty and, reuniting with him in Kentucky, she's in his world now. But this infamous New York dominatrix is no simpering Southern belle, and Nora's dream of fitting into Wesley's world is perpetually at odds with the relentlessly seductive pull of Søren—her owner, her lover, the forever she cannot have. At least, not completely.
Meanwhile Nora's associate Kingsley Edge is only too happy to take her place at Søren's feet during her hiatus. Søren is the only man Kingsley has ever loved, and their dark, shared history has forged a bond that neither the years—nor Søren's love for Nora—can break. But a new threat from an old adversary is forcing Kingsley to confront the past, reminding him that he must keep his friends close, and his enemies closer.
