Guilty as Sin is the second book in New York Times bestselling author Meghan March’s epically romantic and addictive Sin Trilogy.Guilty until proven innocent.That’s the way the world works, right?I’m tired of being convicted without evidence, all because my last name is Gable.The Riscoffs might own this town, but I’m done following their rules.If only I could forget just how easily Lincoln … forget just how easily Lincoln Riscoff can drag me under his spell.

I know I was left a little underwhelmed with Book 1 in this series, but I was trusting Meghan’s process and her to bring me thru this world in her own way. I had high hopes things would get better as the series progressed. My hope and expectations were met and then some. I’m officially hooked on this series. I liked getting more background on the characters, I feel like it helped me connect with them more. It also answered some of the questions I had swirling around in my head. Can’t wait to see what happens next!!
Here we go again!! We dive right back into the insane world of Riscoff vs Gable and start right where we left off in Richer Than Sin.
If I thought book 1 was full of twists and so much family
history and drama, I was wrong. The level of craziness and manipulation is off the charts! There are so many strings being pulled behind so many backs it’s hard to keep up!
I devour…I mean DEVOURED this book so fast that I had to force myself to go slower so I wouldn’t miss a thing. There’s so much going on and yet we still have so many unanswered questions.
Whitney is a runner by nature and Lincoln is doing his damndest to keep her from doing just that. Whitney has had problems practically her whole life and I have to wonder if things would have been so different if it weren’t for her parents sins. And their parents before them!
Lincoln has a seemingly perfect life, but also things could have been different if not for his families sins as well. The history between these two families goes far beyond anything any one outsider could understand. I want to put Lincoln and Whitney in a bubble so no one has touch or manipulate them!!!
I have soooooo many questions about sooooo many characters in this twisty plot line that it’s going to be so hard to wait for the final book!
The cliffhangers are off the charts and I crave them! It makes me want the next installment so much more! The author knocked this one out of the park and I’m beyond excited for the conclusion!
Holy Amazeballs!!! Did not see those twists coming! The one line that just hit me in the heart: “No more goodbyes. You leave? I leave.” Oh my!!!! Heart flutters!!! Many jaw dropping moments that will leave you breathless and wanting more….NOW!!!

Meghan March’s second novel in the Sin trilogy brings us even more greed and betrayal. Guilty as Sin gives us some answers, but then turns right back around and raises more questions.
We pick up right where we left off, and Lincoln and Whitney have a lot going against them. Family, secrets and pasts all come to a head creating more problems than solutions. But will they be able to ride out this whirlwind of a storm to finally be what the other needs?
More angst and more drama. The chemistry between this two is still as strong as it was in book one, possibly more so. I love March’s way of keeping you entranced with their story. You become so invested in these characters, it’s as if you are the one with something to lose or gain.
I cannot wait to read the conclusion to this series and get all the answers I am desperate for. Oh and I want Lincoln and Whitney to get the HEA that they have earned, of course.
Lincoln and Whitney’s story continues, despite forces trying to keep them apart, and despite Lincoln’s inability to trust due to family background. Throw in greedy people trying to claim the family fortune and a drama-queen mother (Lincoln’s), and life isn’t easy for the couple. There are so many lies and misunderstandings and blackmail, you don’t know who to trust, or what will happen next. A typical Meghan March book! Exciting, suspenseful, hot, and full of wonderful characters!
As this series continues we learned more about past Lincoln and Whitney and how they ended up in the present. Meghan March weaves a daring, captivating web you get stuck to, but you definitely don’t want to get out.
I loved this book and I can’t wait to see where Whitney and Lincoln lead us to next!!
Guilty as Sin by Meghan March is book two in the Sin trilogy. Guilty as Sin is not a standalone. I strongly recommend to read the books in order. The previous book is Richer Than Sin, the next one ´ll be Reveling in Sin.
Whitney and Lincoln´s story continues. The Riscoffs and Gables are enemies, just like Juliet and Romeo it´s like a shakespearean tragedy unfold before the reader´s eye.
The story picks up where the previous book left off. The war between the families continues. There are more threats , more danger and more treason. Mix it with the characters emotions that are all over the place and you have a great read that´ll captivate you from the start.
Favorite Quote: ” Everything you want is on the other side of fear. “
Just when I think Meghan March’s books cannot get any better she continues to prove me wrong. Guilty as Sin was full of surprising plot twists, suspense and a whole lot of passion and chemistry. I am eager to see how Lincoln and Whitney’s story continues. I’d highly recommend anything by Meghan March. Happy Reading 🙂
Sin to win; that is definitely Whitney Gable’s new mantra. With the revelations from Guilty As Sin now out in to the light, Whitney’s world comes crashing down one more like it did ten years ago. Things she believed and people she believed in have let her down once more. Enough is enough for Whitney; now her time is HERS. Whitney takes charge of making her life her own despite the town and even her own family’s opinions. But as more and more secrets come out about the infamous family feud, revelations will shake Whitney to the core.
March treats readers to even more look-backs in to Whitney and Lincoln all those years ago. We saw how they started and what initially tore them apart; but now readers will get the chance to see what Whitney’s life was after Lincoln broke her heart that first time. How a strong woman could possibly fall back into the arms of Ricky Rango and away from all the sexiness and raw power that is Lincoln Riscoff. It’s like light bulbs click on as one by one, more pieces of the puzzle are placed and the full picture comes to light. Grief; grief and loss and betrayal are all cataclysmic to Witney’s life. Lincoln is the eye of the storm, the deceptive calm; everything around them rages but those two can’t hear a thing but each other.
As more of the past is revealed, even more bombs from the present are dropped. Whitney’s been through the drama and accusations once with Lincoln and a second time with RIcky’s fans. But now as the two worlds collide, finding a safe haven is rare. I loved that Lincoln FINALLY realizes that in order to win back Whitney, he has to essentially let her go and let her make all the decisions. SHe’s never truly felt power, she’s always been hidden behind her family or his. And as she breaks through her own barriers, a whole new type of strong woman emerges. And she’ll need thick skin for the ending that March writes…and you’ll just have to read to find out about.
5 Stars
I pray the love of angst never gets old. I used to have a strong dislike of it. I hated not knowing what was going to happen. Then I read one story and BAM! I’ve loved it ever sense. Meghan March is feeding that addiction like crazy here lately!
Guilty as Sin picks up right where we left off. You never truly feel like you have both feet on the ground while reading it. You’re unbalanced, trying to find something sturdy to grasp, but with so much going on, it all just slips through your fingers.
Whitney is trying. She just wants peace and quiet, to be away from all of the chaos and confusion, to sit in the silence if only for a few minutes. She’s starting to come into her own confidence, creating a world that she controls. Well, she’s trying to at least. Between more stories coming out about Ricky and Lincoln coming back into her life, she doesn’t know which way to look. Of course, you add in her witchy cousin Karma to the mix who just needs a good punch in the face. I don’t like her, can you tell? I can’t fail to mention the two old guys. The movie Grumpy Old Men, that’s what they remind me of. They help make the story.
I loved every word. I still feel like I’m falling from that cliff that we were left hanging on. I’m sure the feeling won’t stop until the end and we get answers to all of the questions we have. As long as mother dearest and Karma are out of the picture I’ll be happy…for the most part. Can we just send them both to a deserted island to live out the rest of their days? I want Lincoln and Whitney to get their happily ever after, we’ll just have to wait and see how the cards play out.
Anything Meghan March writes is a must read for me but this sexy, addicting, drama filled trilogy is very quickly becoming one of my all time favorites.
Guilty as Sin is a continuation of Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable’s epic and forbidden love story. In this book, we get a deeper look into their history and the feud surrounding their families. After the gasp inducing cliffhanger in Richer Than Sin left us desperate for answers, secrets are revealed that had me picking my jaw up off the floor. So many twist and turns!!
I devoured every word of this story. It was the perfect book to lose yourself in for a few hours. It’s so fast paced and enthralling, I was able to finish in one sitting.
If possible, I am even more in love with Lincoln and Whitney’s relationship. They have a love that’s so freaking swoony. It just melts my heart. I can’t get enough of them together. Lincoln especially has my heart. I love that he’s willing to fight for her even when it goes against the wishes of most people around them. That’s not to say Whitney needs anyone to fight her battles. She’s a badass all on her own.
Of course the queen of the cliffhanger struck again with another surprising ending. I seriously can’t wait to have Reveling in Sin in my hands. I’m dying to see how this fantastic trilogy ends.
I’ve come to dread reading the second/middle book of a trilogy—mostly because they’re usually the ones where the story starts to stall or more fluff and fillers are added. But nope, not with Meghan March. Never with Meghan March. Just quite the opposite, actually. Because Jesus, this was even better than Richer than Sin. The feud and insanity between the Gables and the Riscoffs didn’t fizzle out one tiny bit. Rather, it only got more amplified by the second. Seriously, I couldn’t even begin to describe how much this book gripped me and just took hold of my life once I dove in.
I loved everything I got and saw from both Lincoln and Whitney here. The author opened the gates wider and walked us through what truly went down in both of these characters’ pasts. More pieces of the puzzle fall into place and we also get to understand better why certain things happened the way they did—no matter how shitty and infuriating some of them were.
“Eventually, you’re going to realize there’s nothing I wouldn’t do for you.”
Basically, after reading this, you’ll just find yourself deeper in love and in sexy f*cking lust with Lincoln Riscoff, especially after witnessing his way of groveling, and some of the explosive and heart-stopping revelations that were dropped here. You’ll see a way more romantic and vulnerable side to him that will absolutely steal your heart if he hasn’t already.
And Whitney—god, she just got my emotions in a massive twist. She made me want to be her—because Lincoln—but she also made my heart ache for what she and her family have been and are still going through. I hate that she feels unwelcome in her hometown. I hate that she couldn’t trust anybody—not even her own blood. But she continues to push through and tries to be braver than she ever was. If there’s anyone who’s more deserving of happiness and love in this story, it’s this Gable girl.
“Everything you want is on the other side of fear.”
Guilty as Sin was definitely nothing short of a steamy, angst-filled, and emotional page-turner that just heightened, intensified and made Lincoln and Whitney’s story even more enthralling as ever. You’ll crave more of them. You’ll long to know what’s going to happen next. And with that ending, I’m more than ready to have Reveling in Sin in my hands.
Guilty as Sin is the second installment in Meghan March’s Sin trilogy. Picking up where the first one left us on a notorious MM cliffhanger, we’re back into the past/present push and pull between Lincoln and Whitney.
Since you need to read book 1, this comment will should not be considered a spoiler- her cousin needs a 2×4 taken to her.
These families make the Montagues and Capuleta look completely sane. And the Hatfield’s and McCoys are obviously just having a little tiff.
And never let it be said that a good Southern woman doesn’t figure out how to have the last word.
Squee! The plot thickens! This book has me spinning in circles! There’s SO much I want to know! And that ending! Holy hell, Meghan March knows how to write one hell of a story! There are so many sticks in the fire. I can’t wait until everything comes full circle. There are so many players… so much story left untold. I have a feeling we are all going to be blown away once all the secrets are revealed. We now know what happened before the wedding and why Whitney made the choices she made. I am dying to find out where this story goes from here! Lincoln is as hot and delicious as ever, Whitney is getting stronger everyday, and the enemy is still playing their game. Reveling In Sin cannot come soon enough!

OMG, I need the next book. My heart legit is pounding with that cliffhanger. Ahhhhhhhhh, that’s all I’m feeling right now. It’s serious business.
I am fully invested in this series, gimme more please.
SHE DID IT AGAIN. I am on the edge of my seat waiting for the final book in this series. This is a different story – not one I have read before. Excellent writing, amazing characters and a story that will leave you wanting more, more, MORE!
Lincoln and Whitney’s love story continues!!Lana- White Hot Reads.
Whitney finally decides to take her life back into her own hands by not allowing other people to decide for her. More information is given which makes this story even better. Like all of Meghan’s trilogy’s, this cliffhanger is an even bigger one than in book 1. I can’t wait for Reveling in Sin so we can finally see how all this plays out.
I have so much love (and frustration) for Lincoln and Whitney. Book 2 picks up right where book 1 ends and the twist and turns keep on coming. The forces continue to test the bond between the two of them and they have a lot they need to overcome. Even though it had been a month since I read the first book I was able to dive right back into book 2 and before I knew it I was at the end and ready for book 3. Some questions do get answered in this book but I am really looking forward to book 3 to see how Whitney and Lincoln’s story unfolds. Their chemistry is still off the charts. Meghan definitely knows how to leave you wanting more… Enjoy!!!
OMG!! I couldn’t put this book down! I love Lincoln and Whitney! They go through so much.. The story is entertaining,the characters are addicting. I freaking Loved it!! I can’t wait to see the ending!! Love… Love… Love….
”Everything you want is on the other side of fear.”
GAH! Where do I even start! Guilty as Sin! What a riveting, emotional roller coaster, extremely tasteful, devoted in the sexy as sin state of mind, page turner of a book! That may not make sense but SO not the point because you HAVE to get where I’m going with this!
I couldn’t put the book down. Page after page of nothing but one of the best family rivalry stories I’ve ever read! That alone should make you want to DEVOUR this book the way I did! Add on Meghan’s original flare for lust that jumps off the page and slaps you in the face when it’s mixed with her impeccable ability to draw you into the story, and you won’t stop thinking about this couple for DAYS after you finish it!
I can’t wait to see what happens in the third and final book after THAT doozy of a cliffhanger (which of course, is another March specialty that always keeps us coming back for me)!
