Red Sin (Sin Series Book 1) Kindle Edition

4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars 3,514 ratings

Red is the color of blood, sacrifice, danger, and courage. It’s also associated with heat, passion, and sexuality. When two people meet unexpectedly with an inexplicable attraction that defies common understanding...it can be called RED SIN.

Julia and Van found one another in a shaken snow globe. Stranded in a blizzard, they embraced being two individuals with no last names. The plan was to walk away from each other with no regrets—until that plan changed.

Julia’s life was delivered a staggering blow the day she discovered her fiancé’s infidelity. The night she met a handsome stranger, one who showed her the possibility of a life filled with more than the fulfillment of expectations, she took a chance.

When it comes to business, Donovan Sherman is a wolf—a bloodthirsty carnivore who leaves wounded prey and victims in his wake. He learned from the best, his onetime nemesis and now-mentor, Lennox Demetri, who showed him that opportunities are only ripe for those willing to risk it all, a lesson Donovan took to heart.

With Julia McGrath, Donovan must decide if this beautiful woman who showed him the meaning of red sin will fall victim as his prey or if after experiencing the unbridled passion, there is more that he wants.

From New York Times bestselling author Aleatha Romig comes a brand-new age-gap, family saga, chance meeting, contemporary romantic-suspense novel in the world of high finance, where success is sweet and revenge is sweeter.

Have you been Aleatha’d?

*Van and Julia's journey begins in the full-length novel, RED SIN, book one of the new SIN SERIES and continues in GREEN ENVY.

    4.25 – 4.5 STARS

    Some stories pull you in from the very first page and continue to hold you captive up until the very last. “Red Sin” is, indeed, one of those stories, yet it is a far cry from over! In fact, Van and Julia’s passionate, intriguing journey has only just begun!!

    Aleatha’s die-hard fans, will, no doubt, recognize the first six chapters as this author’s previously released White Ribbon novella. Rather than skipping to chapter 7, I chose to start again at the beginning--back to this couple’s shaken snow globe and back to where their deliciously sexy saga first began.

    Layered with secrets, lies, and manipulation, “Red Sin” is a romantic suspense that is both compelling and addictive. And while the cliffhanger ending did not come as a complete surprise, it did leave me craving more!

    As a delightful bonus, one of my all-time favorite book boyfriends, Nox Demitiri, makes his way onto the pages as someone from Van’s past. Dare I hope that Nox will make an appearance in the next installment to this series, “Green Envy?” Either way, January can’t come soon enough!!

    Solid 5 star rating.

    I wasn't quite sure what I was getting into but as I kept reading, this ended being a contemporary romance. I read all genres so it didn't bother me not knowing going in.

    I found there to be a lot of mystery, definitely sin, and a young woman growing into something new and better. The MMC may be much more sophisticated but dang, I can picture what he looks like. The author did an amazing job with her description of things, places, and people. Best of all, she showed the readers the story instead of telling the story.

    I am very much looking forward to the next book. That cliffhanger was a shock, needless to say.

    I won this book from a giveaway on Goodreads. This is my honest opinion of the book and my review is in no way, shape, or form due to me winning the give away. I would have left the same review if I had managed to have it downloaded because it was free on Amazon, under KU, or if I bought the book. Anyone who knows me will know I leave more reviews on books I've read than not. It all depends on when I finish reading, during the day or night, that allows me time to write a review.

    The book was well-written and kept me intrigued. It was definitely male dominance and the mystery surrounding him kept me wanting to learn more. I thought she caved way too early. Even if she grew up rich, she would have had inner strength enough to at least pause and figure out her situation. Loved how she was saved but that would make her grateful, not completely indebted.

    I obtained this book through another author's newsletter and was intrigued. Even though it was free, it ends on a major cliffhanger. One that feels like the page was torn in half right at that black moment and the only way you can learn what happens is by buying the next book. Note to author: free or not, when a reader obtains your story they invest their time and thoughts in reading what you've created. Even a HEA for now would be acceptable. But when it ends the way it did, I feel cheated. All those hours committed to reading the story was for not unless I want to spend more money to learn the outcome.

    A hot mysterious stranger saves you from a snowstorm after you run away when you find out you fiancé cheated on you with your best friend?!
    That’s the premise of this book. And I loved it. The instant chemistry that Van and Julia emit through the pages is scorching. Van is an enigma to Julia with secrets and darkness he won’t show her, but he’s charming and sexy and they instantly fall for one another. Despite his hardened exterior, his feelings for Julia start to overpower everything else in his life. It’s an attraction like no other. All the secrets and slight suspense keep you reeled in right till the very end…

    This was an amazing read. Though I am a little disappointed it ended on a cliffhanger and I'm unsure when I'll be able to get the other books in the series but I still really enjoyed this book. Van and Julia's chemistry and connection is unstoppable. I loved every minute of it and I hope to learn more about Van in the near future. I enjoyed seeing Julia put her ex in his place. She deserves so much better than him. I applaud her for standing up for herself. She's confident and beautiful. The author did a wonderful job with this story.

    This story has twists and turns that keep you guessing what will happen next. I can’t believe the hidden information that continues to pop up. Just when I thought I knew the answers it isn’t what I thought. Sex is hot and sweaty! Enjoyed the trip.

    Reviewed in Canada on February 12, 2022
    Van and Julia's story is scorching hot! The author pens a beautifully written story with emotions that draw the reader in. Julia is blossoming into a confident, strong woman with Van's love and influence.
    "More. Every second of every day, you're more."

    "I need to know you're happy, safe, and protected. I need to have you at my side. I need to fall asleep beside you and wake in the same place. Will you let me do that for you?"

    Does Van have secrets, does Julia, and what about her parents? So many unanswered questions and the book is over. Loved every minute of it~

    One more quote because there are so many, "Watching your beautiful blue eyes as they swirl with emotion and passion. Your expressions speak volumes."

    3.0 out of 5 stars Great writing, plot and charachters.
    Reviewed in France on November 22, 2023
    Would have given 5 stars except for thinking that the author is using the KU platform in a somewhat ingenious manner. With the KU subscription you get into the story, love it, stay up, happily absorbed through book one, then two, just as good.....and bam, you have to pay full price for book three, yet book four and five resumes the story again under Kindle KU subscription. Objectively, 5.99 probably isn't expensive given it's a good series, it's the fact that you are drawn in without knowing the full cost up front. You think you have already paid it with your subscription. I'm on a very strict budget, and l imagine that I'm not the only one given the economy, and the last thing l need when l read escapist novels is to feel that I'm being taken advantage of. So, an accomplished author and a seemingly great series, shame about the hidden cost that stops you from enjoying it to the end.
