LILY

He’s rough. 
He’s ready. 
I’m neither. 
I’m a sacrificial lamb just waiting to be slaughtered.
A socialite spawned by a sadist whose life’s work is to cause misery in others. 
My life is a prison cell, until he helps me find the key. 
He’s not as dark or as dirty as they say he is. 
His roughness stirs something in me. 
Something primal. 
Something no socialite should crave. 
He’s a brother in an MC, a world that should be alien to me but somehow, it’s my first real home. It has rules and regulations that make no sense to me, but one thing is clear: 
Society princesses and MC brothers aren’t a match made in heaven. 
But I’m fine with ruling over hell instead… 

LINK is the second book in the eleven-book ‘A Dark & Dirty Sinners’ MC’ series. 
It is not a standalone.

Okay... I don't even care if this makes me seem horny as hell, but.... these 2 don't even have sex in this one. There is all this promise of it, and I'm supposed to read the next book about a DIFFERENT couple to see this couple bang?

WHY? Like, WHY?

PG-13 but still great!

After reading Filthy and Nyx I’ve come to expect a certain level of… well…. FILTH from Serena Akeroyd and, sadly, this book didn’t deliver. In fact Link and Lilly never actually bone! I have to say I was really disappointed with that, and not just because I missed the smut. I didn’t think it made sense with the story. Lilly had gone through some trauma, which was why Link was being patient with her, but she never actually got over her issues to get down and dirty with him, so their story felt unfinished in my opinion. I’m sure they will get their own chapter in later books and will get between the sheets eventually, but still… I was disappointed that it didn’t happen in this book.

Despite the lack of smexy scenes, I still really enjoyed this book. The story is getting really good and I can’t wait to see it unfold. I love how interconnected this series is with the Five Points series. I knew that they were in the same universe but the plots are so interconnected that this book ended with Eoghen’s story. Off to read Eoghen’s book now, hopefully it delivers on its name and is filthy!

I really loved these two characters - Lily (FMC) & Link so much. A diamond in the rough & a so called pampered princess had a genuinely sweet kind of relationship together. My heart melted with their texts to each other. Both cute & funny. They showed a different side to both of them especially with all the violence around them. A few sad parts though. In particular with the kidnapped girls. I shed a few tears reading their parts of the book. Really sad. As well as my heart went out to Lily who was living a scared half life where her every move was accounted for and was live in fear. Even Link & Lily were complete opposites in they were also completely perfect for each other. I totally loved it

Appearances can be deceiving

Lily. On the outisde she is the picture perfect rich biatch of a billionaire. A blonde, blue eyed China doll with the world at her fingertips.

Link. Born on the wrong side of the tracks. He is rough, dangerous, callous and dirty. Born to ride with Satan's Sinners.

Separate they are half truths. Together they are fire, plotting to take down a villian. Don't let their clothes fool you. There is a lot of darkness under Lily's pretty exterior and a lighter side under Link's grit. They were made for each other but didn't know it until fate or the devil himself intervened.

All joking aside, this ain't your mama's RomCom. Serena Akeroyd continues down the dark rabbit hole she started with book 1, Nyx & Gulia's story, by bringing more darkness out of the shadows and displaying it for the world to see. The dark elements are DARK, the evil will leave a nasty taste in your mouth, so that's why there's a trigger warning.

While revenge waits in the shadows, Serena sheds some much needed light into Link and Lily's relationship. What starts off as business slowly morphed into more. A stolen encounter here, a chance encounter there and a little sexting always brightens the soul. Love and comfort are something neither knows about but secretly crave. And crave each other they do. ❤🔥

Besides Link, Serena's Satan's Sinners world is dangerous, violent and beautiful and comprised of a multitude of rough, dangerous, sexy men with equally hardcore, bad*** women. While we saw Link and Lily's POV and their relationship form, Serena seamlessly and beautifully orchestrated the POV from past and future characters into the mix. I haven't encountered that elsewhere and I absolutely love it. ❤ These scenes have definitely set us up for a rollercoaster of a ride with future books! Not only with the Sinners but also the Filthy Feckers Mafia (The Air He Breathes). This crossover is going to be epic and I can't wait for more of either collection! Like seriously, Serena, I need the next book!!! Yestersay. No pressure 🤣❤❤

I don't always like MC (Motorcycle Club) books, but I absolutely love this series. Link is my favorite of the Satan's Sinners. He is so insightful and such a paradox. The fact that I get a taste of all of the Sinners, as well as getting to see more of the Five Points men I love (Filthy Feckers series, The Air He Breathes) just makes me love this series even more. Even if you don't love MC books that much, I promise you will love this series. The characters are so well written and you just get enthralled with their stories. I end every book wanting more, not just from the main characters in that particular book, but from all of them. I end up craving all of their stories, and I know that Serena will not disappoint! This series is a MUST READ. But I will say that it is much better if you read Finn's book from the Five Points (The Air He Breaths) first. It really makes you love all of the characters and stories that much more.

Link and Lily. The unlikely couple! She comes from the high society, attended finishing school and college. But she has a dark secret.

Link, leads a dark life, part of an MC that does what MC does. Self proclaimed Trailor trash. Surprisingly he is the light of his MC. The kind go happy guy.

At the end of Nyx we are left looking for girls, and this is where Link and Lily's universes collide!

You will fall in love with these two as they fall for one another. Another love story that only Serena Akeroyd could have imagined. Because with her, shit gets weird but in the most delicious way! I can't wait for Sin, the next book in this series and Filthy Rich, the first book in the cross over series Filthy Feckers! I'm hooked!

Link is one of a kind!!

Satan's Sinners book 2 will grab you by the balls and hold them tight right to the very end, just like Nyx!!!! Lily endures some horrible shit throughout her life yet remains strong and decent. A tough task with what she is dealt! Link though dark and rough is a bright shining light for Lily! Their attraction is so much more than either of them could ever expect! The horrors they both endure bond them in an epic way!! This was an evocative story with incredible characters that was stupendously written!! Can't wait for the rest of the series! F#@king loved it Serena!!!

We first see Link in book 1 of Satan Sinner's which is Nyx's story and we learn how lovable he is.

In book 2, we get Link in all his lovable outlaw glory and we meet his leading lady Lily.

Yes that is a whole lot of alliteration there folks! Link and Lily's story is dark and twisted and different than Nyx's. Please go into this story with an open mind because it is really beautiful in it's entirety.

Nyx still remains my Satan Sinner's true love but Link is right behind him and the things I would let Link do to me would be considered criminal in 90% of the world.

BORING

2.75 Stars

This could have been a great read.
What it ended up being is boring.
It could have easily been 100 pages shorter.
Read more like a prequel than an actual story.
Link and Lily's thoughts were so repetitive it drove me up a wall. Every interaction between them brought the SAME thoughts over and over again.

I saw where some reviews said they never had sex. And in the most basic manner that is true. They never had actual intercourse in this story. But they definitely had sex scenes.
AND
There is a sex scene between Nyx and Giulia.

BUT!
This was written more like a TON of prequels all mushed into ONE book.

If this had been the 1st book I read in this series I would never read another one.
Thankfully that isn't the case and I will continue at least one more to see how it plays out.
But if it's not better than this one, then I will give up.

Link by Serena Akeroyd is book Two in the Satan's Sinners MC Series. This starts the story of Lily and Link. I have read the previous book which added to my enjoyment of this one. Link and Lily's story continue into the next book but not in a hard cliffhanger way. Ms. Akeroyd connects her character's through each book I have found, which I like. So I want to read them all but you could make it a standalone book if that what you want. Lily hasn't had a easy life that she has to keep secret because of who her father and brother are but in the last book she lost one of those threats now she just has to get away from her father. Link is the one that she makes contact with to feed information too but Link becomes more focused on Lily and keeping her safe. There are some trigger scene/discussions so be aware. Can't wait to read more from this author.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️Link you really are just a big teddy bear stars. This was one dark, dirty and beautiful ride. Manwhore yet loveable MC member Link knows poverty and is a sinner no saint, however when the gorgeous, classy, wealthy, yet funny Lily contacts the Sinner’s MC for help sometimes opposites can attract causing not only a wildfire but a forever for two scarred souls. These two while opposites were perfection together. Link never saw a relationship/old lady in his horizon but he instantly felt something for Lily. He was sweet, understanding, compassionate and of course alpha protective. Lily had lived through hell, a prisoner in her home, victim of abuse, yet was still sassy, funny, sweet, and compassionate. The book offers a number of POV (at least 4/5 different people). I love that this not only gives you so many views of what’s happening in this book but also leaves you wanting more of that particular character (Very smart Serena 😂). I need all the stories like yesterday! 😂. I love the subtle cross over to mafia because MC and mafia two of my favs to read. Now I wait for Sin (Satan’s Sinner) and jump back to the mafia world for Filthy Rich (Eoghan and Inessa).

Link is the second book in the Dark and Dirty Sinners' MC Series by Serena Akeroyd, and this book is filled with so much tension, respect, and acceptance, you can't help but fall.

Link is the fun one. The one that lightens the mood and provides some much needed levity in the toughest of situations. When he meets Lily, and all the horrible trauma that comes with her, he keeps that charm, but becomes such an amazing support system for her. It's incredible, hot, and so easy to read.

Lily has survived the worst imaginable, and she's done it with grace and dignity. Betrayed by those she should have been able to trust above all else, her strength is admirable. She isn't ready for Link, but he's coming for her anyway. But he's going at her pace.

This couple is the sort that you know is going to last. Their connection is solid and intense. Their love is everlasting, and together, they fight to right wrongs and become the strongest they can be.

I absolutely loved this book! I am in love with Nyx from the first book in the series and now I can add Link to that list! Serena Akeroyd’s writing is phenomenal! I loved the occasional POV from characters other than the main characters in the book! It gives you a great view of what else is going on in Link’s world! We also get a glimpse of what is going on with Nyx and Guilia as well. I adore the love story that unfolds between Link and Lily, amidst all the darkness in their world, they find the light in each other! This book is definitely a must read!

Favorite MC series by far!

I don’t think I can really express just how much I love this series. Nyx was amazing, I was blown away by the characters and it was a perfect intro to the series but Link? It just sucks you in even more and damn is it even sexier. The sparks between these two? 🔥 I absolutely love Link and Lily and I couldn’t of been happier with where their story went. They both deserved it so much. ❤️

Couldn't put it down!

This is the second book in the Satan Sinners series, and boy what a fantastic continuation it is! I love the different points of view and the crossover with the Five Points.
The relationship between Link and Lily develops gradually throughout the book and in true Serena style, she leaves you on the edge and wanting more! I can't wait for the next one.

A well written page turner that continues from the first but with a focus on Link. There's so many pieces and layers to Link, he's more than meets the eye. Then add in Lily who's more than you think. This story will have you hooked with plenty of twists and turns with some surprises that'll have you wanting more. A definite must read looking forward to the next.

This was an enjoyable read and though mostly focusing on a different couple Link and Lily it does need to be read in order as there’s an ongoing story arc throughout. What I especially liked about this was the inclusion of other characters POV’s so you really get a good feel for the whole MC family and how much of a unit they all are. We even get more Nyx and Giulia which I totally adored but there’s also other members of this extended family included so at times this felt less a romance and more of a saga. The majority of this is Link and Lily though the other stuff just added so much extra nuance to the story which I really appreciated.

Lily is the sister of Luke Lancaster Giulia’s attacker and from the outside, it may look like she has it all with every luxury provided by her rich prominent family but she’s broken and has learnt to project an image to the outside world this persona is so far from her daily reality. Her life definitely hasn’t been good abused at the hands of her father and brother and practically a prisoner; her whole life is monitored and her privacy is nil. Her brother's death provides an opportunity to change all that and it’s with some crucial information that she decides to approach the MC. The enemy of my enemy is my friend and all that jazz.

Link is a real man-whore we learned that about him in the previous book. He’s also the easy-going brother who's everyone’s friend. What starts as a way to just collect information swiftly morphs into so much more and despite being total opposites the two connect and Link has the patience to wait for Lily to be ready to be fully intimate with him her past making her wary of taking that big step forward.

This was very sweet in an MC sort of way it definitely has some darkness but Link is definitely all in and recognises swiftly that Lily is different and that he’s emotionally invested and actually likes her. Lily loves that she can just be herself around Link and he accepts her for who she is.

This was also very hot and the two had plenty of chemistry together but surprisingly they didn’t actually seal the deal here though they definitely still did a whole lot else and I didn’t think it detracted anything I actually found it quite refreshing that Link was prepared to wait especially considering his previous ways and Lily’s backstory. Link really surprised me here and definitely in a good way.

I’m now definitely hooked on this series it has just the right balance in regards to the dark stuff with plenty of moments of light to offset things. It’s well written and very engaging and I definitely recommend if MC is your jam this is a good one.

A sweet MC romance that doesn't shy from the dark and disturbing.
Yep - you read that right, sweet and dark.
By all appearances, Link and Lily are the kind of polar opposites whose attraction to each other shouldn't make sense; but I'll be damned if the author hasn't written them perfectly for each other.
This book continues on the story we first started in Nyx, and is interspersed with chapters from other characters in the Sinners MC world.
The lives and stories of all the characters are brilliantly woven together and I can't wait to devour more books from the series, as well as reading more about Link & Lily

Beware The Satan's Sinners Tornado! :)

Let me explain my title. To form a tornado, you need warm air and cool air. When they meet, they create instability in the atmosphere......meet Link and Lilly.

Link can be either side of the tornado at times. Warm heart, caring. He can also be cold as ice when he needs to be, but he is a Sinner, after all. Lilly, on the other hand, I think people underestimate Jersey girls. Her family screwed with her and just as a true Jersey girl, step back y’all.

The Sinners tornado also spins you around to other POVs of other characters in the book, which keeps it really intriguing....also leads you to believe there could be many books in The Sinners series, not to mention spinning The Five Points men. I’m dizzy with all the hot men in this book.

I’m so happy Link found his Lady. I loved their story. If you’d like to find the Sinners MC, Take the exit off the Garden State Parkway for Sinnersville, it’s a Hawt Right and then a Sexy left. Read this book! (After Nyx! Lol)

Ahhh!! Link's story was amazingg!! I loved him in Nyx and could not wait for more of him. His connection with Lily was potent. I enjoyed their initial meeting and how a lot of the strings in the first book were tied here. 

Lily was endearing and also a badass. Her story was heartbreaking but seeing Link, a dark MC member protect her was just fantastic. I can't wait to read Sin and Tiffany's story! 4 stars! ~Ratula

Pleasantly surprised....

With how much I fell in love with Link. One of Serena Akeroyd’s biggest assets as a writer is the ability to make the reader care and become invested in a character. Link was a character often ridiculed and even made fun of in the previous book.... so to see him come to fruition as a whole, was spectacular. So excited for the next installment!

Wow oh wow what can I say .....I absolutely LOVE this. Not only does it delve into the funny character that is Link, it continues with the story started in Nyx. Intense, moody, dark but wow what a ride. Loving getting to see more with Nyx and Giulia but loving more getting to know Link and Lily. Now let's see what Sin has to offer

What a story!

People who know me, know that I love a bad boy who's good with his women and his family. Link is a man like that. In fact all the MC guys are so far, well barring Dog and Storm because he's got his head stuck up his arse. Eagerly awaiting the next book!!

Link is the second book in the Satan’s Sinners MC series and it is just as dark edgy as the first book. This series really should be read in order because there is an underlying story thread that continuously weaves from one book to the next that will keep the pages turning!
Link and Lily couldn’t be more different. She is the refined rich princess and he is the rough around the edges biker, but not everything is always what it seems from the outside as Link is going to find out.
Read for yourself to see the dynamics that plays between them as the chemistry builds and enemies become allies to take down a common foe!

***reread 11/28/23***
I liked this a little more than last time, but it still wasn't my favorite. It's hard to come after Nyx's book for me because I still love him. So poor Link never stood a chance, lol
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I love the Sinners and the Five Point Mob. I didn't even realize these two series were together until someone on here happened to tell me. I had already started Link's book but stopped. I found the order to read from the author's website. I'm so glad they did because it brought everything together for me. I knew something was off when Finn/Aiden/Declan made an appearance in Nyx and it felt like somehow I should know them. So if you are anything like me and don't know these series are intertwined go back and read them in order. They make so much more sense!

In saying that, this wasn't my favorite book. I really liked Link from Nyx's book. And let's face it, I LOVE NYX. I've read his book 3 times so I knew this was going to be hard for me to move on from him. Link had some big shoes to fill and this just didn't do it. I loved the banter between Link and Lilly. But something was missing with the connection. I do love that we got a perspective from Rex, Tiffany, Nyx, Eoghan, Mav and I'm sure a couple of others I'm forgetting.

The ending also had me doing a double-take, but not in a good way. I didn't even realize the book ended for Lily and Link. It wasn't until I finished Eoghan's chapter and then the book immediately went into Filthy's first 3 chapters that I was like, wait, I've already read this. Then backtracked and realized Eoghan's chapter was the end. And if you don't know the series are interlinked you wouldn't know that that chapter is setting you up for his book which is next in the reading order.

Overall, it was a good book. I loved that we still got to see a lot of Nyx and Guilia.

LINK #2

We really never know what goes on behind closed doors of the wealthy. Their power and money keeps their secrets hidden from the public. Lily knows this first hand. She's seen it. Lived it. Abused. Loathes it. After the death of her psychopath brother pieces of the puzzle begin to fall in place as she unravels the mysteries that her father and brother tried to bury. Lily forms a plan to take down her father but she needs help. She begins to seek out the survivor of her brother's latest victim. A survivor who has links to the MC her father is trying to bring down.

Link and Lily's story will take you on a whirlwind ride of emotions as time is running out for her brother's trafficking victims who are stashed away in an unknown location.

Absolutely love this series!!

Can't wait for next installment, Sin!

YES!! Such a good book. I love the Sinners. Link doesn't disappoint. When Lily comes into his life with information he finds it's hard to let her go. I love how these guys are dark and serious, but when it comes to their women they are big old softies. They fight hard for injustices even though they themselves aren't perfect. I enjoy seeing the glimpses of previous characters intertwined in the stories.

Wow, I loved this book. This book continues on from Nyx and what happened in that book. This book has so many revelations. I couldnt put book down once started.

I loved Link and Lily together, they may of met because of what happened and Lily wanting to help. They may of been unlikely people to find love. But they suited each other. I loved how Link helps her through her past.
