After Wrath is the fifth book in The Deadliest Sin series about organized crime in Chicago. This series is best read in order beacuse the stories occur chronologically and each sin builds on the events of the previous one.

The plot thickens and blood is shed!
What is the shitake biscuits is Gwyn McNamee doing? I need to PM Ms. McNamee again because SERIOUSLY, WHAT IS SHE DOING!?!? This story is has taken some serious twists and turns.
Book 2 of the Deadliest sin Series has some new characters. Alex, is an evil sadistic SOB focused on vengeance and Brynn. Brynn, is the girl he’s falling for, if a sadistic SOB can fall for someone. Let me tell just say, I have felt for anti-hero’s before, but DAMN! This series has me twisted up inside. I don’t know who to hate, who to love, and where the twists will take us! Thank goodness the series is complete because with the ending of this book I would be really upset if I had to wait to see what happens.
This series is dark, bloody, really bloody, and the characters are terrible people, yet I find myself hoping the sadistic asshole finds love. Book 3 is the end, so I am going to go ahead and dive in. BTW, it is still Friday night, looks like I am not going to bed! Definitely recommend this series!!!
Yas!
This is book 2 of this series.
After Wrath is gritty, it’s twisted, it’s absolutely amazing. I loved this one. If you love the dark romance than this is for you.
After Wrath (The Deadliest Sin Book 2)
By: Gwyn McNamee
5 out of 5 stars
The story After Wrath (The Deadliest Sin Book 2) by Gwyn McNamee is a book that is dark and intense. It had me hooked from the very start and I read it all in one sitting. The author does an amazing job of making the storyline and characters come alive. This is a book the includes raw and powerful emotions. It grabs your attention and doesn’t let go until you have finished the final page. You enter a world that is cold and calculating. I found myself holding my breath and turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. This is a journey that you don’t want to miss out on taking. I highly recommend reading this book.
Book 2 in “The Deadliest Sin” series is one dark and gritty read that hooks the reader right in from the very beginning! The plot was well written and well planned with characters that were created with such great detail and depth which makes the reader feel that they are sitting on the sidelines watching as this outstanding story unfolds from page to page!
Jesus this man is even almost more twisted than my mind can handle. This world is a very dark place and for even Alek to find one ray of sunshine knowing what he has planned for Rea is much more than he deserves. Onto book 3 where I’ll definitely need a stiff drink after 😉
Now this one was a really great book it kept me up and reading this one just like the other one I couldn’t put it down great job on all you do
Another great book! I couldn’t put it down. Another book a little on the darker side. Alek is unrelenting in his pursuit of revenge. He is definitely not the cuddly type, so when we see his moments of softness with a specific person. I highly recommend picking up this book, but get book 1 first.
After Wrath is the second novel in the Deadliest Sin series by Gwyn McNamee. This is my eleventh novel by this author.
Continuing where Wrath left off, it’s been a few years but are things really quiet?
Here we are introduced to the character Aleksander who wants revenge. I know he is the bad guy but I really did love reading from perspective even possibly finding a love of his own.
I don’t want to give too much away but I highly recommend reading this.
“They just woke a sleeping dragon. The years I’ve spent in the background have come to an end. It’s time to take my rightful place at the head of the family.”
This man, Aleksander, is just plain evil. Until he meets Brynn. But even her love is not enough for the dragon to change. She does bring out his caring side but this story is entitled After Wrath for a reason. There are no rainbows and unicorns in this story. Aleksander is on a mission. His mission is to avenge Saban’s death. Family comes first, no matter which Mafia family you are a part of.
I have said in my past review for McNamee, unforeseen twists. Twists that make you scream at your reading device. Twists that make you cry with sadness and with hope. McNamee is a master twist writer.
This book, well really this series, is not for the faint of heart. It is for readers that like dark, twisted, unimaginable stories. Way to go, McNamee! Looking forward to the ending?
Let me start by explaining a little about Alek. He’s dark, dangerous, violent, bloody, destructive, and…I love it! The man has serious issues and takes way too much enjoyment out of what he does and it seriously turns me on! Crazy right??? Gwyn has the uncanny ability to make you completely fall in love with her characters, no matter how gritty, dirty, and bad they are! She has quickly become one of my absolute favorite authors. Even in a quick read such as this one, the story line is so detailed, raw, and emotional that you see and feel every word she writes.
This is book two in the Deadliest Sin series and they must be read in order. Book one left me in shock. Book two, After Wrath, picks up with Aleksander seeking revenge on those who he feels have wronged him. Seeking to unleash the wrath of the Dragon and no one will stand in the way of him reaching his goal. The ending was completely unexpected and left me full of anticipation with how this can all possibly play out! The only thing I know for certain is that it will most certainly not disappoint! This series is gritty, violent, powerfully emotional, thought provoking, and sexy! I can’t wait to delve into Book 3 and see what journey the author takes us on! As is everything else I have read by this author, this is a 5-star must read series!

“It’s not about wanting.
It’s about needing.
Need for revenge.
Need for violence.
Need to let wrath consume me.”
After Wrath is the second riveting book in The Deadliest Sin Series by Gwyn McNamee. This is part of a series and is not meant to be read as a standalone. You won’t get the full impact of the story, or series, if you don’t read the books in sequence.
Each book is told from a different perspective, which really helps build the tension, suspense, and impact. I love the way Ms. McNamee wove this story/series- she left me guessing as to which direction she was taking the story, and series- and I was anxiously reading along to discover what would happen. There were quite a few shocks, twists, and surprising developments- which is quite a feat considering how short each book is.
As I said in my review for the first book- this might be a short story, but it packs quite a punch. It is dark, erotic, raw, bloody, brutal, and action-packed. I loved the complexity of the storyline, and of the characters. Being able to weave such clever twists, and create such complexities in such a short space is really a testament to Gwyn McNamee’s writing prowess!!
This is a hunt for revenge. Our character is consumed by his rage, his wrath is palpable! We are pulled into his vortex of rage and death-dealing mission, where we get a front row seat to all the action; from Pittsburgh, to Cuba, and Argentina- he leaves a bloody trail of violence in his wake. But will his obsession be his undoing?
The epilogue of this book made me sit up and take notice- the first time I read this book I was beside myself- I could not wait for the next book to be released to find out if what I thought was actually what was going on- because you never really know with Gwyn McNamee behind the wheel. And even though I have read this book several times now, the epilogue still makes my heart pound!
I’ve said this before, and I will say it again- Gwyn McNamee is one of my favourite authors, who can take any genre and deliver something that will completely enthrall me, every time. She’s such a brilliant storyteller, capturing my attention within moments of starting any of her stories and then taking me on a ride that will stay with me long after I’ve closed the book. This story is no different- and I especially loved how she worked and moulded the darkness of the theme. I think she wears darkness beautifully and this book/series is definitely one of my favourites of hers- ever!
One of the best things about this series, for anyone who hasn’t read it yet, is that all the books are available to read right now- so no waiting between books!!! #WINNING
Bravo!
Thank you, Gwyn McNamee!
After Wrath is book two in The Deadliest Sin series and it is action packed, dark and intense. If you haven’t read book one, Wrath I highly recommend you read it before book two. Alek is one of those characters that you hate but love at the same time and Brynn has such a big heart and the total opposite of Alek. Their story had me completely captivated and on the edge of my seat wondering what would happen next and I felt that way until the very last page. I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.
Darker than my usual reads, I knew when I finished Wrath by Gwyn McNamee that I wanted more in this “world”! After Wrath gave me just that. This story pulled me in & held my attention from start to finish.
Even if you’re not a fan of dark reads, I recommend giving this series a try, you just might find yourself loving it as much as I did.
After reading Wrath, I was surprised at the depths of darkness Gwyn McNaMee took After Wrath. This book was exceedingly well written. Once I started reading it, I could not stop. I had to find out what happened next. Alek was vicious, violent, and totally unremitting in his search for vengeance for Saban. Yet, he was caring and loving in his relationship with Brynn. You must read this entire series.
Loving where this is heading. The author lulls you into a false sense of security with this book, but be warned, all is not what it seems
After Wrath (The Deadliest Sin Book 2) by Gwyn McNamee is the second book in the series, and you need to start with book one, Wrath, before reading this one.These books are short but pack a punch and I read them in one sitting. The story is written from the male perspective and I loved being inside his head. It is one dark read but it is so good and Gwyn does it well.
Alek has vowed vengeance against his brother and those that had a hand in it. He knows that everything that happened was because no man can resist a woman and he knows he will never ever let that happen to him. Revenge has never felt so good and the anticipation of the torture to come lights a fire in the mans psyche.
I look forward to seeing what else Gwyn has in store for us, no matter what it is I know I will enjoy it.
After Wrath is book two in the Deadliest Sin series by Gwyn McNamee. This author is one that continuously blows me away with her dynamic storytelling prowess. The dedication that is put into each story is immeasurable. I am always entertained and captivated.
The story continues from Wrath, with each and every character dazzling. The complexity adds this delicious edge that not many authors can pull off. Always impressive. Always left wondering what could be better than this. 5 stars.
After Wrath by Gwyn McNamee
Five Stars
After Wrath is the second book in the Deadliest Sin Series by Gwyn McNamee. I did really think Ms. McNamee could get any darker than the first book in this series, but I was wrong. The second book is dark. You need to read this series in order to get the full storyline. This book had me enthralled from beginning to end and I couldn’t put it down until the last page. I don’t want to give anything of the plot line away so all I’m going to say about this book is Beware of the Dragon! If you love dark and dirty this is the series for you.
After Wrath- Gwyn McNamee
5-stars
Gwyn McNamee never ceases to amaze me, no matter what the genre of her stories I can’t help but be completely consumed with her writing! After Wrath is the second book in Gwyn’s Deadliest Sin series, a series I couldn’t recommend enough. The stories are action-packed, dark, shocking and steamy. Even though the length of the stories are short the storyline is so well rounded and full of detail.
I can’t wait to continue this series and I would absolutely recommend this series and author to anyone!
I loved Wrath (book 1), and I was so excited to read this second book! I love how this author can piece together a work of art with her writing. Her characters have a way of coming to life in my heart, and Aleksander and Brynn were absolutely wonderful. Yes, it’s gritty, yes, it’s dark, but all in the name of love and the need to possess and protect at all costs! This book did me in, so hard! I drooled, I clenched. and even laughed. But most of all, I swooned in the very best of ways! It was, simply put, perfect!
