I’m a bodyguard. I walk softly and carry a big...stick.

Too bad I have no idea how to use it.

I know what you’re thinking. How the hell do you end up a virgin when you live in a city known for easy access?

But my focus is protecting the women of New York...not fulfilling my every desire.

Then I meet her.

May 09, 2018 Eve Recinella (Between The Bookends) rated it really liked it

I enjoyed this one for the most part. I am a big fan of these two author's writing, and I am have been enjoying this series so far. Usually, I am not a fan of virgins, but at least the two main characters in this one were only 21 (or 22), so them both being virgins was at least somewhat believable.

The writing was great. It was fast paced and a fairly quick read. The plot was engaging, but I found it kind of similar to the plot of Rafe's book. Plus, I am not a fan of one party keeping huge secr ...more

An exceptional read that will have you picking your jaw up from the ground! In one brief moment, everything comes to a full heart-pounding stop as Matthias' monster comes unleashed and it appears that no one can reach they young man that everyone loves, especially the man who is like a brother to him. An extremely well written story that will bring out more of Matthias' past, but not all of his secrets, as Gemma (Gigi), has become a little more entwined into his life. He still feels like somethi ...more

Shelves: reviewed-for-we-ve-licked-that-book

I’ve read the previous books featuring the Blake security men so I’d already met the enigma that is Matthias. Matthias has always been the dark, dangerous, mysterious one out of the Blake security team and the one that has intrigued me the most. I’m obsessively, head over heels for Matthias so it’s no surprise that I wasn’t completely won over by the female lead in this book. I wanted to like her but seeing as she’s been sent to take down Matthias (or is it to protect him?) that just wasn’t goin ...more

This is one of those books I wish I could give half stars to because it need a 4.5. The only reason I went with a 4 is because parts of the story are hard to follow. Some people had different names when they were part of ......... so it makes it hard to keep up throughout part of the book. However it's still a great all around read.

Gemma is everyth Gigi wasn't. She's strong and doesn't need anyone to protect her. She's has a job and she plans to do it even if it kills her. Matthias had a new f ...more

I was given this ARC as an honest read for an honest review. This is the continuing story of Matthias and Gemma. These two are agents from the dark side, they are assassins. Matthias never really thought he'd get out and Gemma was Gigi who Matthias thought was gone. When these two come together sparks fly and the complex plot and secrets start coming out.
This story doesn't end, Sinful is the next addition to this story. This story has steamy sex, secrets, deceit, love, loss, and A lot of more g ...more

What did I just read? My heart is pounding and I need to know how this story ends! Matthias's past is catching up with him and Gemma might just be collateral damage. That she can affect him in a way no one has ever been able to scares him and all it takes is one little push for his inner monster to appear. Can the monster be contained long enough to fight what is coming for him? I found myself rooting for this couple, even if I secretly wanted Matthias to get with Ariel from the Cheeky duet book ...more

OMG. What a story!

I'm new to the Blake Security boys but what a way to start the introduction. Mathias (Matt) is a monster ready to release his rage, and nearly does when he's attacked in his penthouse. When he realizes that his attacker is a woman, and then later discovers exactly who that woman is -- wow!

This was suspenseful and HOT! I'm ready to run and pick up the previous books in this series just so I can get more of these Blake boys!

This was such a great read that I enjoyed from page one! Matthias and Gemma were well written characters that I did not expect. I am used to reads where one of the characters were virgins (the cliché usual heroine) but I did not expect both characters to be but given the troubled upbringing that they had it made sense. I also liked the return of the characters from the previous books as well. There were a few other twists in their story that I did not see but I also can not wait to see where the ...more

Excellent contemporary romance with violence and a cliffhanger. Matthias now works for Blake Security but he knows that the killing monster inside him keeps trying to get out. He avoids becoming attached to anyone. His past with the violent Family is out to kill him and it's in the form of Gemma/Gigi has come back to haunt him. I received a complementary copy of this book and chose to write a review. I look forward to reading the future books in this exciting series.

I received an ARC in exchange for a honest review.

Holy moly! That was intense! As soon as I started, I couldn’t put it down and finished it by nearly 1 in the morning. I really couldn’t get enough. As for Gemma and Mattias, those two are on fire! And that ending! My god I thought my heart would burst out of my chest. I desperately need the next one in this series! I need to see how this all ends.

It's a cliffhanger but man worth the read to start.
Matthias has lost the one thing he loved years ago and is now a different person inside and out but has never forgotten her the one he lost. Matthias became a killer for an organization and now they want him dead so they send in an operative to take him out.
Gemma has a mission and a target to get and to fake their death, but has no information on the target just that it is a he. She herself is an operative of the same organization as Matthias ...more

The is the first full length book in this series. I have read several books by these ladies and I always love them. This book pulled me in right from the start. Matthias did not have the best childhood. His past is coming back for him. He always knew it would it was just a matter of time. He just never expected this particular person from his past to make a reappearance. The monster he keeps tightly leashed is in danger of getting loose. Matthias has been keeping something things from the guys. ...more

I have been waiting patiently for Matthias story and for me it was worth the wait. It was as explosive as I thought it would be. In my opinion M. Malone and Nana Malone wrote a really good suspenseful story. There was even a twist thrown in that I did not see coming. I really can't wait for Sinful. We get the backstory of Matthias that most of us have been waiting for. For me M. Malone and Nana Malone wrote a suspenseful, keep you on the edge of your seat, page turner. This does end in a cliffha ...more

I don't even know what to say other than WOW, but here goes. This book has me on the edge of my seat and left me with my mouth hanging open. Not to mention the "Noooo" I yelled at the end of the book.

I have been waiting for Matthias' story, and it was well worth the wait. I do have to say, under full disclosure, this is a cliffhanger. I hate cliffhangers. But, I can't wait for the next book.

The transformations in Matthias' personality and his thought processes are enough to hold your attention. ...more

I'd say this is delightfully sinful. Sin is an amazing read. Mattias gets a blast from his past that he didn't see coming. Gemma is on a mission and little does she know that her target is someone she used to know. The men of Blake Security are amazing. Mattias is hot and sexy especially once he reveals one tiny detail. Gemma and Mattias make one sexy yet deadly duo. I can't wait to see where this scorching hot read takes us next. I couldn't put this down and I'm dying to find out what's going t ...more

Mathias has to be my favourite character from the Blake security world. I've waited more or less patiently for his story, and I wasn't disappointed in the slightest. This is the darkest of the series so far, beautifully crafted with fantastic characters. This is a real page turner. Can't wait for the next installment. I voluntarily received an ARC of this book.

Intense! Sin was absolutely crazy intense. It burns and it burns fast. Everything took place in such a short time but it doesn't feel like it. I was hooked! I keep thinking... what is going on?!

Just when you're getting comfortable everything is chaos. I have so many questions and am so ready for book 2!
