Sinful Love by Lauren Blakely

4.0

I really enjoyed this series. Lauren managed to weave a mystery into a series of connected love stories. Each couple was unique and the connection of the siblings was fantastic. I loved that they weren’t afraid to tell each other difficult truths.
Michael is the eldest sibling. He fell in love with a foreign exchange student in high school and he was never able to let her go.
Annalise fell for Michael as a teen but after she returned home, the distance became insurmountable. Over time, she let go of that dream and fell for another man. She married him but a heart defect killed him and after a few years she decided to look up her first love.
This second chance story was different than most I’ve read. Although Annalise’s marriage broke Michael’s heart, there was no huge drama surrounding the end of their romance. I loved that Annalise had important information to the on going case featured throughout the books.
The epilogue was great! I really love that Mindy and John found their HEA’s too. I’m not ready for this family to be gone from my reading life but maybe Marcus will get a book eventually too!!
