About this ebook
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.
Â
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.
Â
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.
Â
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.

NOTE: This is not a standalone. You must read Dirtiest Secret first. Holy mother of forbidden romance stories! I love it when the characters are down in the gutter kind of dirty. The story pushes the boundaries on the forbidden, yet it doesn't go so far as to turn you off from the taboo elements. What happens in this book? Let's see.....Dallas gets some of his "mojo" back and some skeletons fall out of the closets. There is also a lot of secrets. Some from Dirtiest Secret are revealed, but the biggest and baddest secrets are yet to be revealed. My mind is working overtime trying to figure them out and I'm dying to see if I'm right, or if Julie Kenner is going to blindside me with something I never saw coming. This story is intriguing, intense and has all my senses on fire.

This is the second book in the S.I.N. series and follows the continuation of Dallas and Jane's story. Now that Dallas and Jane have finally committed to each other, they spend four wonderful days together in their own bliss before real life gets in the way. Dallas is throwing one of his "parties" so he can talk with Henry Darcy to see what he actually knows about Deliverance, Dallas' company that finds kidnapped people through any means necessary. Jane is not happy with the persona that Dallas has to maintain. I can understand the jealousy and the irony with this this part is fun. Great writing here! As Deliverance is getting closer to finding out who kidnapped Dallas and Jane 17 years ago, Dallas is keeping certain parts of information from Jane. This causes issues between the two of them. After they kiss and make up, it looks like things are looking better until Dallas and Jane go to a concert for her birthday with Damien & Nikki Stark and Jackson & Sylvia Steele. What happens at this concert is awesome! Such good drama....God, I love these characters! As Dallas and Jane are living with the aftermath of what has happened, Jane finds out that Dallas has been keeping one more huge piece of information from her. He argues he was waiting until he was 100% sure of the fact, but of course this blows up in his face and all hell breaks loose. As Jane goes running out of the house to take a walk and think, bam....an even bigger cliffhanger! Between the chemistry Jane and Dallas have and the suspenseful story J. Kenner has written, this series is a must read!
