The S.I.N. series continues with the seductive follow-up to the Stark International Novel Dirtiest Secret, from the New York Times bestselling author of “red-hot and angsty” fiction that “keeps readers guessing” (Publishers Weekly, on Under My Skin).

No one can know about our love—and hiding only makes it hotter.

Dallas Sykes has a reputation. He is known for his parties, his money, and the countless women on his arm. Yet the Dallas I know is a different man—darker, smarter, and unbearably sexy. Just one look from him can leave me breathless; the anticipation of his touch can make me lose control.

Inextricably bound by our past, we keep each other’s secrets. And while there are people who have the power to hurt us, it’s the truth that threatens us most of all.

Dallas can be mine only behind closed doors, our passion as searing as it is forbidden. Yet nothing in this world has ever felt so desperately, deliciously right.

Hottest Mess is intended for mature audiences.

Michel’s Review

Dallas and Jane have lived through a lifetime of turbulence in their forbidden relationship.  They are both scarred from their horrific kidnapping when they were teenagers.  Although both were returned home alive, they were not remotely anything like the kids they once were.  Their relationship had changed during their captivity.  Rather than being a sweet young love, it became a dirty, forbidden secret.  They both walked away with damage that went beyond their horrific experience.

Years later they are both struggling with their lives and feelings for one another.  They have finally chose to let their relationship take it’s natural course.  The only problem is they still have to keep it a secret from their family and the public.  It’s still considered dirty and scandalous.

There is more at stake than their secret relationship. Dallas is trying to find out who exposed his secret organization, Deliverance.  The federal agencies are beginning to connect the dots.

Dallas also has found some very incriminating evidence that Jane’s biological father may be the man who arranged their kidnapping.  He’s trying to keep this secret from Jane until he knows the truth.

Dallas and Jane’s secrets are getting exposed.  They have more than their family to fear, it seems there are other enemies looking to destroy them once and for all.  Their past captors may be hunting them down.

I love the S.I.N. trilogy but felt that this book was more of a filler in the true grit of the story. The sex scenes overwhelmed the plot in the story.  I felt like the scenes stalled the progression of the story.

 

 

 

 

From the New York Times bestselling author of such “racy, sizzling Stark novels” (RT Book Reviews) as Release Me and Say My Name comes the provocative first Stark International Novel—the beginning of the S.I.N. series.

It was wrong for us to be together, but it was even harder to be apart.

The memory of Dallas Sykes burns inside of me.

Everyone knows him as a notorious playboy, a man for whom women and money are no object. But to me, he’s still the one man I desperately crave—yet the one I can never have.

Dallas knows me better than anyone else. We bear the same scars, the same darkness in our past. I thought I could move on by staying away, but now that we’re drawn together once more, I can’t fight the force of our attraction or the temptation to make him mine.

We’ve tried to maintain control, not letting ourselves give in to desire. And for so long we’ve told ourselves no—but now it’s finally time to say yes.

Dirtiest Secret is intended for mature audiences.
