DID NOT FINISH: 85%

I held on long enough!!! Not for me. I just couldn’t bring myself to finish.  The whole storyline just made me so depressed and her swearing with bird words?? Just the love interest thought so poorly of her for the most part and her character made me sad in a way that ruined my experience reading this. Will not continue reading this series. All the situations in this book are distressing in some way

This was straight hot garbage that I read for guilty pleasure. From writing style to the plot, things made little sense to me and there was a lot of unnecessary drama and plot holes. 

First let's get into the heroine, who's the dumbest person I've ever read about. She wasn't very likeable and had a quirky ass personality with the constant bird puns. She makes
certain decisions like signing away her life to a 70-yr-old fat creep without researching and is effectively a damsel in distress.
 

The hero isn't any better too with the specific flaws in the writing style. The only redeemable part of this book was the smut.

I definitely could’ve done without the bird puns. Otherwise it was an okay mafia dark romance.

BOOK REVIEW | Sinners Anonymous by Somme Sketcher 

*NO SPOILERS*

🕊️ Kindle + KU - Dark Romance mafia 

5⭐️
4🌶️

Plot: Rory is engaged to a 70 year old, gross, old mafia boss - Alberto. Under Alberto’s control, Rory is living with her soon to be husband, when his nephew, Angelo returns home. ♣️ I loved the forbidden romance between the characters. Plus there is so much sexual chemistry - she is his uncle’s fiancée and he cannot touch her… 

Writing: The writing is so enjoyable!! The writer clearly portrays each character’s personalities and internal conflict. 

Characters: Rory such a lovable character, she would do anything for her father, including marry a creepy, old man. Angelo is your reformed bad boy, who seems to quickly revert to his dark ways as soon as he meets Rory. 

Overall: This is one of my favourite books and this series is so addictive. The had be gasping and blushing. So many secrets and confessions! 

*Please note this book deals with dark themes and to check the trigger warnings before reading*
