Her sister, Melania Cruz, is the head of a dangerous Mexican drug cartel and blames Dominick for Isabella’s death. She vows vengeance for her sister… and she’s using Dominick’s son to get it.

However, with the history the two of them share, he knows it’s only a matter of time before she comes after his brother to satisfy her misguided thirst for revenge. Angel is not about to let that happen. There’s no greater loyalty than that which is given to family, and Angel will protect his to the end.

S. K. has just gotten started. Take a chance and jump on this ride - if you dare.
I can't even begin to express how damn good this book was. Dominick, SK gave us glimpses into him in her other stories, but in this one we get to see the man he truly is, good, bad, & ugly and I loved them all. Keisha, although she worked my nerves in the beginning, she truly turned out to be "ride or die" for her man. Angel, well what else is there to said about this man who is fiercely protective of his family and those who he considers family and will obliterate anyone he sees as threat to them. SK gave us twists and turns in true SK fashion. There was Drama, Action, & the Sex scenes? well you just have to read it for yourself, but make sure you have some water. lol This woman is truly a BEAST with the pen!! I am anxiously waiting for the next installment!
Well, SK has done it again! I don't know how she comes up with this stuff, but I hope she never stops. I started reading this book yesterday evening, and could not put my kindle down until I was finished - which I did a little after midnight. As is the norm with a SK novel, I was drawn in from the very beginning. The characters and the storylines are so captivating, and SK weaves in so much intrigue and suspense, that I was pretty much on the edge of my seat the whole time I was reading. And the sex, Lawdhammercy!!! *wipes brow*. The sex scenes are just HOT! Not much is left to the imagination, which I love, because my imagination is NOwhere near as good as hers!
I think I'm still trying to recover from the ending, which left me with my mouth hanging wide open and pretty much punching the next page button, because I could not believe that she would leave us hanging like this! Please, please, please hurry with Book 7! I canNOT wait to see what happens next.
This book is a must-read, as is the whole series. SK, you are a wonderful storyteller. Thanks for sharing your gift with us!
#TEAMDOM4LIFE Spain & LaCroix are bringing the Heat in the Sin City. This book was HOTT & intense I can't find words regarding this book without giving spoilers, but I will say it's a must read! My Sin City boys are beast and the women they love are beast-ettes!
First off let me say this book is a prime example of why I am such a die hard SK fan!!!! I have read all of Sk books and the blog stories and I have yet to be disappointed!!! In my opinion when a author is this skillful they should get all the praise so right now I'm giving SK her props not only on this book but ALL HER BOOKS!!! No Greater Love is the next installment in the Sin City Heat Series and it is pure FIYAH!!! The gang is back and powerful then ever. Loyalty is what this installment is focus on and the gang is going to show you just how great they loyalties lie with there family. This book had me in my feelings! It had me happy at times, anger and it also had me in a erotic bliss.The story line was on point and the characters played there part well. Also the twist at the end will have you in shock. As always SK Excellent job and I can not wait to read Ravens and Hawks story...
No Greater Loyalty , the sixth book in the Sin City Heat series did not disappoint in the least. If you've read any books by Author SK, you know to expect drama, suspense, great chemistry between the couples, violence and super sexy alpha males. This book centered primarily around Dominick and Keisha and Angel and Nikki. One thing Angel (super sexy alpha crime boss), insist on total loyalty and you do not mess with his family. He will crush anyone who threatens his family, even if you're head of a notorious Mexican drug cartel. He is the boss in the bedroom and the boardroom. As usual, there are surprises and secrets revealed, super hot love/sex scenes which makes it a page turning, can't get enough read. SK, I know you have a life but I have questions only book 7 can answer.
Oh Lordy! SO has out done herself again, I will say I missed my boothang Marcus. Now I was on the edge of my seat throughout the whole book, I know I still haven't exhaled. Honey child now the hotel part was off the hooked, not this slutmonkey Melania. The ish she put Dom and Angel, and their wives was so under handed. The other hoe bag Raven, shoulda been sent up the river like Melania a$$. Now my boothang Hawk can do better, and his cousin is Darrell brother. I can't wait to see what will happen next. Now this ain't even half of what went down, but if I had to read it without no heads up you won't either lol.
In this highly awaited follow up to the Sin City Heat series, we learn that there is no greater loyalty than what is found within a tight knit family. Dom is fighting past demons but when one becomes a tangible threat, he must rely on his brother, Angel to help him through..but sometimes..is family enough? As he seeks a connection with his son, loyalties will be tested, not only with this new bond but in his home as well. Darrell also faces family woes as he seeks to dig into his family tree. But as the saying goes...seek and you shall find. When he comes face to face with his findings, he has to decide was all the headache worth it.
I throughly enjoyed this read. In comparison to past books in the series, the pace was a little slow and most of the drama happened at the end but nevertheless I enjoyed all the character interactions as usual that led to the climatic end. And oh what characters; Angel just seems to jump right off the page with his larger than life persona. I always enjoy reading about SK's charasmatic characters. Not my fav in the series but it was a good read overall.
I know a lot of people don't like to do series past 3.. Well let me tell u this series so far is 7 an I can't wait to part 8 come out. You have no idea usless you read them. They are the bomb, business men who will go gangsta in a heart, wives who don't take no sh*t from no one. All I can say is read the series..
SK has done it again! Dominick and Keisha chemistry was so hot! Dominick is a man on a mission to find his long son and he will stop at nothing to get him. Angel will protect his brother at all cost. Darrell and Jerra will have challenges ahead. This is a must read! I love this book!
Huge fan of this author. Dom & Kiesha chemistry was amazing . Can't wait to read about Jerra & Darryl next (my fav couple) . One character I like , but then again I really don't like is Angel.
Careful, no switching sides. The storm that's brewing within Darrell and with his family is going to be catastrophic. My heart is already aching for him. Dominick the weight of the world on his shoulders trying to keep his family safe. I'm still loving the alpha in all of the men. Keisha is still her impulsive self, but she loves her family.
I’m a new reader of SK but I have not been able to stop reading your books. I started with Hawk Pattel and not I’m back tracking reading every book in Sun City. I’ve told all my reading friends. This series is absolutely fantastic.
This installment had quite a few shocking twists and reveals. And by the time I got to the final chapter, the OMG moments just kept coming...and I'm loving it! Bring on Total Eclipse!
Too bad Melania had to learn A horrible lesson when it comes to messing with Angelo family. Angelo don't play that. Please say one of my favorite couple isn't over? Please!😢
This is another book I re-read after reading Hawk's and Raven's book. I first read it in 2014. This was an excellent book. Angel is serious when someone messes with his family. He considers all the Sin Series guys and their families his family because of their relationship with his brother Dominick. They were Dominick's family before he and Angel reconciled.
The sex in this book is more than erotic. With one couple it's pure porn. I don't understand why that section was included. The author could have accomplished what happens later easily some other way. In spite of that, which was a every small part of the book, it didn't distract from the overall book.
Angels proves the lengths he'll go through for his family in this book. There's is no greater loyalty than to family. This is also when Raven and Hawk relationship started. Angel noticed the attraction between them. He hated Raven for he knew that she was trying to gain information to take he and the Pattels down. He can't kill her because she's Nikki's sister, therefore family. He will bring her down another way. Does he use Hawk because of Raven's attraction, even if it means her being disgraced as an ADA in New York? There is so much drama in this book because all of the men are as Alpha as they can get. However, they're pussycats when it comes to their families. Even Angel, however he has lines that it no one crosses, even Nikki. She tried using his love "but first, he’d have to bring her back in line, remind her of the power of the beast which lay between his thighs.". He certainly did so. However, Nikki is as stubborn as Angel and he knows she'll cross that line again. He will keep teaching her until she finally learns, but will she?
The drama continues and you know that Darrell has some unsettled problems with the Pattels. Will his search for solutions cause problems with his wife Terra? She went to school with his brother, Lorenzo Pattels. She finds out when he comes looking for his mother, Tina, who is Darrell's mother who lives with him. That's a story for another book.
Wow! Normally, I'm not at a loss for words but really, what else is there to say about this book!
There was so much going on, and usually, for me, that is not always a good thing. I much prefer a story to focus on just one or, at the most, two relationships. But as with this whole series, I just have to know what's going on with everyone.
All of the couples were touched on except Alicia and Marcus but I'm OK with that. There will be another time to get more details on them. We know their babies have come home from the hospital and the couple is working on their suddenly huge family. They certainly didn't need any parts of all the drama that was taking place in their friends' lives and the friends wanted to shield them from a lot of it, so it was very realistic that we did not hear from them.
I'm finding it pretty difficult to get in depth with this review for fear of spoiling things. All I can say is it a MUST READ, but the other books in the series should definitely be read first. I like the fact that SK does not do full reviews of characters and events, which too often take up valuable real estate in the story. Having read the other books, you don't want to be reminded of details over and over. You want just enough to refresh your memory and SK does that flawlessly.
I am very much looking forward to reading more of the Pattels story. Lorenzo has definitely intrigued me and I simply must know how things play out with Hawk & Raven.
I waited so long for this story and I have not even an ounce of disappointment. It was worth every second of the wait!
The only thing that would make it better is if we can somehow get this on the big or even small screen. It's like reading the script of an intriguing and sexy crime drama. From MUST READ to MUST SEE TV. Yep, that would make it perfect!
SK has yet to write a book that I didn't love. Usually by book 5, most series have lost a little steam, but SK is just getting started. There's never a dull moment in this book and I didn't want to stop reading for anything. Dom and Keisha were hot in their first book, but damn, Dom stepped up his game in this one. He was sexy as hell and he and Keisha heated the bedroom up for sure! Dom also showed a more dominant side than he had in previous books, which shocked me and Keisha definitely grew from the hot-headed ass-kicking girl she used to be and learned to curb her temper and accept that Dom had her best interests at heart and he would never put her in jeopardy. I absolutely loved Angel as well. He has to be one of the most dominant alphas I've ever read about. He is no joke. He's someone you would never dare mess with and he is super sexy. Whew! I had a couple of hot flashes between him and Dom, and Angel's ruthlessness is unparalleled. The storytelling was excellent and the twists put the characters in the worst possible situations, and the situations are believable and well thought out. I love the relationship dynamics between all of the couples because each one is unique and emotionally charged. I can't wait to see what drama Lorenzo brings to Jerra and Darrell's relationship in the next book. That's going to be a crazy ride with Darrell's jealous nature. Great book. I'm adding this to my favorite pile.
I loved this book because Dom and Keisha were overdue for some "spotlight on how we love" camera time...
I have a special place in my heart for ever SCH man so far...Marcus, Darrell, Dom, Angel and yes Amir. I knew why I loved each one.... Marcus- his quiet but deadly sex appeal Darrell-his take no prisoners, love so hard I could kill a man about my woman Angel-his KINGOFTHEWORLD type "let me handle that" KINGPIN vibe Amir-Just a good man, that was misunderstood guy next door swag
.....before NGL... I knew that I loved DOM because of his "I'm an untamed THUG" sex appeal... He showed us a little taste of his gangsta...so no need to sleep on him...
Not until NGL dis I realize how passionate and lethal a Thug could be without terminating the serious bond between his family...
DOM fights just as long and thorough as Marcus, loves just as hard as Darrell, Will dead a man about his family just as quick as Angel....and even is just as misunderstood as Amir..... but this man...this man DOMINICK SPAIN all alpha male...don't get it twisted...
The latest installment in SK’s Sin City Heat series, picked up where Shadows of Deceit left readers with a cliffhanger…Dom finding out he has a son. When I say this book will keep readers on the edge of their seat, I am not joking. This book had me up until 2:42am in the morning determined to finish. Dom and Angel have always been close and family their number one priority and in this book, they both proved they are about business and when you mess with family….you have definitely crossed the line they show no mercy. Of course there are cameos from our favorite couples alone with more drama to unfold with this crew. Can I also say the love scenes were hot! SK did not hold any punches and came out with full guns blasting. Of course there are her famous plot twists that will leave readers with their mouth open and wanting more. Great story and hats off SK!
Keisha and Dominic..u 2 nasty as hell lololol but u make it look so good, that hotel scene lolol I cant i seriously cant..Thats just a whole other level! Thats what I will always remember about u 2, and o yeah I wont be able to hear "Body Party" without thinking of you 2.
Angel, lolol when u told Nikki to sit down I was like " yes papi" lolol and then u turn around and "punished" her, U can punish me anytime.
This is not one to read in public ppl! lol Loved the storyline tho. anxiously waiting more! The surprises especially at the end wow is all i will say!
I have had the opportunity to read all of the books written by this author and I must say this book delivers just like the others. Great story, great steamy sex scenes and wonderful, loveable identifiable characters. I am an avid reader and there are few authors that inspire me to purchase their books as soon as they are released. SK is one of them! I cannot wait for another installment of the Sin City series or of any series or book that SK has to offer her fans. I'd love to see the books become a movie in the very near future.
If I could give this book 10 stars I would! This book had it all: mystery, suspense, drama and of course romance! I especially loved the organized crime aspect of the story. Angel is not to be messed with!
I also loved reading the scenes with Dom and Keisha. I honestly feel like they have the strongest relationship of all the couples in the series.
And Jerra and Darrell. Whoa. Not sure what to say about them without including spoilers but I look forward to reading the continuation of their story in the next book!
Where do I start?! The birthday celebration with Dominick & Keisha was FIYAH!! My goodness....that's how you celebrate!
I was screaming at Darrell to NOT make that call but did he listen?! Heck no! Jerra is still wounded by her past and still threatened by Roni; I understand her hurt and disappointment but she overreacted a bit.
Angelo is THE MAN! He is ruthless but oh so sexy at the same time; dude has swagger!
Love this book, love this series! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
This book was so good!! SK you are awesome!! From page one this book had me on my P's and Q's. It was like a good riding roller coaster with the twist and turns (and some extras). Just when I thought that the ride was over you dropped my off a cliff! All I can say is wow!!!! Angelo and Dominick was the bomb. I love them both, but say they are not messing with my Darrell - I can't take it !!!!!!!
