It was wrong to stay together … but we couldn’t stay apart.I’ve been with my share of women, but none touched my heart and fired my senses the way she did. Her smile enticed me. Her caresses teased me. Her body aroused me.And yet, it couldn’t last. There were too many years between us. A gap we couldn’t breach, and we broke it off. No. I broke it off. And I’ve regretted that decision ever since. regretted that decision ever since.
Now she’s in danger, and there’s no one else I trust to protect her. But the more time we spend together, the more I want her back. And all I know now is I have to keep her safe—and despite both of us knowing better, somehow, someway, she will be mine again.

I laughed. My heart melted. I love this series of the Blackwell-Lyon security group. The characters are funny. There is ALWAYS steamy parts you can’t put down. Hot characters to look forward to learning more about. This story is one of my favorites so far.
Connor is friends with benefits with Kerri, but thinks they can’t be anything more because he’s older. Situations arise and they have to work together. Conner realizes he’s an idiot. A situation that could’ve been deadly turns out to be ok. They get their HEA. Can’t wait to see what JKenner has for us next!!!
This is the third installment in the series but can be read as a standalone. It was definitely a rollercoaster ride! I really enjoyed reading it and dicovering bits and pieces of Kerrie and Connor’s love story where we finally learn what has been going on between them. Find out if they get a happy ending in this sexy romantic story and prepare for some hot scenes!
Connor and Kerrie’s relationship has evolved throughout the years and one night changed everything but because of the age difference, Connor doesn’t want to hold Kerrie back even though his feelings towards her have grown with time. But when they have to work undercover in a dangerous situation, things between them will get even harder even though Connor’s eyes really start to open up and maybe, just maybe, he’ll finally see what’s truly in front of him. Will they get a chance to finally be together?…
Oh Connor, you foolish man. He believes that being 14 years older than Kerrie means they can’t be together. Now, as I read the story, I understood where this crazy viewpoint came from but yet, the heart wants, what the heart wants. Kerrie abides by his decision to be friends but then one encounter pushes them back out of the friend zone. When a new case has them acting like a couple, will Connor be able to keep denying what he truly feels? I love that this is told from Connor’s point-of-view which tells me, men have relationship issues just like woman and boy, can they be misguided at times. I voluntarily read an ARC of this book and this is my honest review.
Connor & Kerrie have history, a lot of history. They were an item for quite a while, until he decided their fourteen year age difference was too much of a barrier to overcome. Despite intense chemistry & compatibility, they agree to go back to being just friends. I like that Kerrie is spirited & accepts his decision without being whiny or clingy. She disputes his arguments, offers enticing alternatives, but in the long run is ready to move on if he can’t give her what she needs. Being thrown together on a sizzling & dangerous undercover case may be just what Connor needs to come to his senses, but will his epiphany come too late?
I am such a huge fan of Ms. Kenner and I love the way her characters crossover into other series, so it feels like you’re engulfed in one huge family story. That being said, just because the characters can crossover, does not mean that you have to have read all the books; although I don’t know why you wouldn’t want to!! But I digress. Kerrie had a crush on Connor when she was a teenager, now that she is 24 it is full blown love. Connor’s best friend Pierce, is Kerrie’s brother, he’s 14 years older than Kerrie and her boss so that means that he should not act on his feelings; even though they were together for almost a year before Connor broke it off. When Leo joins Blackwell-Lyon and brings an existing investigation with him Kerrie has to go undercover to a party weekend, with Connor as her other half. When Kerrie’s life is in danger, Connor realizes the dept of his feelings, but he needs to save her in order to let her know. Another well written, fast read to warm you on a chilly day.
“Why don’t we go up to the room, get dirty, and then get cleaned up?”
“Dirty, huh? Aren’t you a sexy little sinner.”
“Absolutely, and you know you like it.”
Oh, how I loved this story! The chemistry. The tension. The banter. The heat! Off the charts!!!
Kerrie Blackwell has been in love with Connor since she was a teenager. And, for a brief time he was hers. Until he put on the brakes and dumped her for the most ridiculous reason ever. Now, they’re on assignment together, posing at a couple at a kinky weekend party thrown by their target. She’s going to take every advantage of this situation just to show him what he’s been missing.
Connor Lyon is an idiot. She’s perfect for him, and he pushed her away. Why? Their age gap. He’s not going to saddle her with taking care of him in his old age. The fact that he can’t stop wanting her is slowly killing him. Now, she’s undercover with him at weekend kink-fest. How is he going to keep from crossing that line between mission and passion? When their mission puts her in the cross hairs of a dangerous criminal, will he and the team be able to get to her in time? He lost her once, he can’t let it happen again.
This was a great addition to the Blackwell-Lyon Series! I wanted both hug and slap Connor. I felt so bad for both of them – Connor thinking he was doing the right thing and Kerrie resigning her to the fact that he won’t ever let them happen. I loved these two!!
4.5 stars
This is one definite page turner from start to finish. It is filled with angst that will keep any reader pinned to his/her seat. You know what some say….Age ain’t nothing but a number but what if you just cannot get past it? Connor wants to do the right thing with Kerrie but as she is fourteen years his junior, what is that exactly? The two of them go round and round and all the reader wonders is when will they or won’t they. Connor needs to realize that the heart wants what the heart wants and that Kerrie is a woman who can make her own choices. The chemistry between these two is so off the charts that it feels like smoke is coming off of the pages. Filled with emotion and heat, this is one book to add to any collection.
I volunteered to read an advance copy of this book.
Sexy undercover mission
This is Kerrie and Connor’s story. We get a clue from the previous book, Cayden and Gracie’s story that Connor Lyon and Kerrie Blackwell were lovers. And now exes. Now we get the lowdown on why they remain friends. Both work for the same security company of Blackwell-Lyon Securities and the tension between them is strained as Connor insists on placing Kerrie in the friend zone.
The attraction, the chemistry, and love sizzle between them, but Connor feels the 14-year age gap is a disservice to Kerrie. Yes, she’s young and vivacious and headstrong, but she is every bit a match for Connor. Yet, what he’s witnessed from his grandparents’ relationship has weighed heavy on his belief Kerrie should look for a man close to her age and avoiding a possible future of burden and heartache with him.
When Kerrie’s life is in danger, her identity exposed while undercover, Connor realizes almost too late that he will protect the woman he loves at any cost. J Kenner writes a quick and sexy addition to the Blackwell-Lyon series that will make you swoon. I voluntarily received and reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.
I could not wait for Connor and Kerrie’s story and OMG it was so good! They had a thing but Connor decided he was too old for Kerrie and ended it, but his heart is having a hard time with that decision. Soon they are working side by side on a case and now Connor needs to face his heart’s mind. This story has it all suspense, tension, sexy times, sweet times and laugh out loud moments. A quick fun read not to be missed!
We FINALLY get to delve into the are they or aren’t they that is Cameron and Kerrie. The security group takes a new kid and old friend of Kerrie’s. Cam and Kerrie are sent undercover for one of their clients to see if corporate espionage is taking place. They go under cover over the weekend at a swinger’s retreat hosted by their person of interest. This story has some intrigue and plot twists to keep you on your toes. JK would do well writing a mystery!
Sexy Little Sinner by J. Kenner is the third book in the Blackwell-Lyon series, but the first in the series I read. Though characters from previous books do appear in this book, this can be read as a standalone. I never felt lost and have added the previous books to my TBR. This was sexy, angsty and suspenseful.
Connor and Kerrie have undeniable chemistry and dated for about a year, before Connor broke it off. He had his reasons and felt this was the right choice for them. He knows what it means to be with someone who is so much younger and is determined Kerrie needs someone her own age. Connor was sexy, strong, smart and so freaking stubborn. Kerrie was beautiful, smart and feisty. They were perfect together, even if Connor does not want to see it.
I found it interesting to get this story entirely in Connor’s point-of-view as he works through his feelings for Kerrie and the danger, they find themselves in. Though I would have like to have Kerrie’s point-of-view for some scenes, I loved seeing it through Connor’s perspective. Sexy Little Liar was a quick, sexy, steamy, angsty and a bit suspenseful.
Read and reviewed for Reviews From The Heart.
Happy reading!
In true J. Kenner fashion, once you start this book you will not be able to put it down. Fast paced and filled with characters you instantly fall in love with, this book was awesome. For Connor, going undercover should be an easy task, but when the one person he needs to keep at an arms length is the one undercover with him the lines get blurred. Can Kerrie and Connor work together and bring down the bad guys or will being so close together put their lives as well as their hearts in jeopardy? Five stars are not enough and I cannot wait to read more in this series!!
Passion and a bit of suspense!
In the third standalone in the Blackwell-Lyon series, we finally see Connor and Kerrie’s story. These two have the whole May-December thing going on, which bothers Connor, at least when they are not in the throes of passion. However, when a possibly dangerous assignment throws them together, the sparks are off the wall. Will Kerrie be able to convince Connor to see past their age difference, and simply see her?
Sexy Little Sinner was a great, fast-paced read that made you want to be Kerrie’s best friend with her take-no-prisoners attitude, and get to know the sexy Connor. Great writing, fantastic passion and a mouthwatering story. I wanted a little more backstory for Kerrie, however, it was still a fantastic read. Definitely recommend!
When it comes to love most believe that age shouldn’t be a factor, but in Connor’s case he wholeheartedly believes that it should be taken into consideration when it comes to Kerrie. She is fourteen years younger, and he thinks she would be giving up a lot to be with him, and he can’t bring himself to let her settle for that. Not to mention she is kind of off limits since she also happens to be his best friends little sister.
He gave into his desire for her about a year ago, and they had a little fling, but as soon as feelings started to get involved he got nervous and put the brakes on it. Since then they have been circling around one another at work, constantly trying to keep there attraction under-wraps, and and trying their best to keep things all business. But the tension between them is about to hit an all time high, because a new undercover project has just been put into their hands, and it’s going to require them to get down and dirty!
Sexy Little Sinner is an angst filled page-turner that will keep you dangling from the edge of your seat from fear and anticipation. These two not only find themselves fighting the sparks simmering between them, but also the danger lurking at every turn. Connor was determined to do right by Kerrie and prove to her that he wasn’t the right man for her, so he kept denying her advances and hoping the right guy for her would come along. Which meant a lot of tension and torture between the pages of this one, these two darn near killed me with their “will they, won’t they” antics. I really enjoyed this one it had lots of emotion and intrigue amongst it’s pages, and of course lots of the good stuff (heat) too, it was a nice well blended tale!
I requested an advanced copy of this title from the publisher, and I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased opinion.
Conner and Kerrie were so in love until Conner decided the age difference was too much. Now they are working together and trying to be friends until Conner’s brother engagement party. Will one night change everything? Will Conner change his mind or will Kerrie find someone else?
With the exception of her paranormal series, I’ve read just about everything that Julie Kenner has put out there, and love all of them. She has a way with her writing that just sucks you in from the very first page, her writing is precise, very well done, flows from one page to the other, and no one else can write hot steam love scenes quite like she does. Sexy Little Sinner is Connor and Kerrie’s story, and for the most part it’s a great book. The only hang up I had was with Connor’s issue with the age difference between him and Kerrie. Nothing irritates me more than to have a whiny character, and that’s how Connor comes off in this book, he has is reasons, but in this readers mind they really aren’t valid given how much he says he loves Kerrie. Just rubbed me the wrong way, but other than that, this is yet another really great read.

5 Star Review Sexy Little Sinner (Blackwell-Lyon #3) by J Kenner
This was a fast quick novella that had me engaged from the start to the finish; in fact I would have loved the story to be longer. I really loved the characters of Connor and Kerrie and the secondary characters are just as entertaining.
Connor and Kerrie work together and were previously involved, until Connor put the brakes on. He firmly believes that his being nearly 15 years older than Kerrie he should keep away.
Age is but a number unless you are Connor. Despite repeated attempts by Kerrie to convince him otherwise he is determined to do the right thing.
As things spice up and danger rears it’s head, neither of them can deny the sizzling chemistry that sparks between them.
Having been shaped by his memories of the past, Connor has to overcome his fears and trust in their love him and that they can have a bright future together. The question is will he?
I cannot wait for the next instalment in this series.

Finally! We have watched Connor and Kerrie circling each other in the previous books in this series and now we finally have their story. Connor has this big idea that he is too old for Kerrie since he is 14 years older and he watched his grandparents, blah, blah, blah…anyway, he has issues with the age difference. Kerrie doesn’t and knows without a doubt he is the one for him and has told him that over and over and that he is an idiot. These two together are great! They are perfect for each other and it takes an undercover assignment to really spice things up. This was a short and sexy book and really a wonderful way to spend an afternoon.
This is a great love story between Conner and Kerrie. We have met them in other Blackwell-Lyon’s series. Conner knows that he was right a year ago when he had to let Kerrie go after he finally gave in to his wants for her. She is fourteen years younger than him and he knew that she would be giving up too much to be with him. And he also knew that she should be off limits because Kerrie is his best friend’s sister. So they tried to keep away from each other, other than working together at the business. Then comes an undercover project. Conner must keep Kerrie safe.
What a great story!!! You will start the book and you will fly right through it. There is so many ups and down you will feel like you are on a roller coaster. Can’t wait for more sexyness from the Blackwell-Lyon books.
I freakin’ loved Connor! He is so inside his head and Kerrie has the patience of a goddess. I on the other hand would have already slapped him across the head until he figured it all out. But he is adorable so all is forgiven ;).
We get a lot of the steamy romance, but you also will get a little bit of angst. Connor and Kerrie make quite the team in a mission that has you holding your breath. The story line will draw you out of any book funk!
The characters that we have grown to love are all there with you in the story. I am growing very fond of the Black-Lyons security team. The woman are fierce and the men will have you melting! Oh and yeah since they work in security, you get the yumminess of their alpha protective side too! *Swoons*
Sexy Little Sinner was a fun and sexy read! J. Kenner knows how to bring the heat to her books!
