When! Omg!!! …..as i said .. a masterpiece…

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

If the start to the Six Months of Sin Series is anything too go by we are in for another awesome Series from Kitty Kendall.
I loved the Sinful Escape, it was well written, funny, and hot. The main characters are realistic and fabulous, makes me want to run off to Europe and be a tour guide like Daisy.
Roman, the tour bus driver, seems to be a man of mystery, yes he over shares but he is hiding something, can’t wait to learn more of his story.
Zali, Daisy’s best friend, injects humour through her daily experiences caring for her mother and young son, desperate to live her non-existent life through Daisy.
Both Roman and Zali encourage Daisy to take risks, providing steamy moments they both seem to thrive on.
Can’t wait to continue this series.

Let me get this out of the way first. I hate the cover. I only decided I hated it after I finished the book. It doesn’t fit the love letter to Europe that Kendall has written! The cover seems to point to a shallow sex romp that we all have read plenty of times before. This story is notably elevated in every way: with clever, witty dialogue, crisp world building, smart characters and expert descriptions of Europe that will make you want to book a trip asap. I loved the colorful ways each tour stop is talked about in this book! An example:

“The bustling food hall was the epitome of multiculturalism. Every stall offered a diverse delicacy from a different culture. The hive of activity was an explosion to my senses. Aromas alternated from sweet to savory. Cinnamon and cumin. Vanilla and paprika. The sounds were as much from people as machines. Chopping, grinding, whirring. A dazzling array of color sprung from every aspect of the hall. There were vibrant green vegetables that looked like they’d been picked that morning. Creamy pastries that had my mouth watering just looking at them. Rich red berries, promising to sweeten any dessert or drink. I drew my group’s attention to the stall selling spices from around the world. With dozens of different-colored powders and seeds hemmed in wicker baskets that were lined up in rows, it was a photo opportunity not to be missed.”

We as the reader get out own tour with the group, from France to Austria, it’s a lovely trip that reminds us of the rich history in each country. It’s clear that Kendall loves these European countries, and it’s sheer pleasure reading about the landmarks. I had to keep putting the book down to Google each place to get pictures!

We meet the eminently relatable Daisy, an Aussie who ran from her past to France, where she’s a popular European Tour Guide. She gets good and bad news. Good? Her new tour bus driver is gorgeous, young, sexy and surprising. Bad? Her employer won’t extend her employment, therefore her visa extension will be denied. What’s a redhead with annoyingly large breasts gonna do? Try to make the best of the time she has left. Easier said than done!

Daisy is every defensive, self conscious, badly burned almost 30 yr old. Her inner dialogue will sound familiar to us females…Her insecurities revolve around would have, should have, could have…and no one would any way so why bother? With a photographic memory, crazy red curls and a tendency to make up swear words, she seems to love Europe but tends to get in her own way.

“The bricks of life weren’t meant to be smooth or straightforward. But damn it, why did mine have to be like a box of fucking LEGO?”

“Maybe I could go to a tropical island and read copious amounts of books and, in between meeting new book boyfriends, I could sip cocktails and swim. Except my fair skin and the sun were life-long enemies. And I couldn’t swim. Sure, I could float on my back. With my bolt-on air bags, I’d be impossible to drown. But swim? Freestyle was impossible when my tits made it their mission to occupy my armpits. I looked more like a drunk attempting to breakdance while drowning. And breast stroke? Let’s just say I give it a whole new meaning.”

“Maybe Pierre sensed my fanciful slide into erotic psychosis because he put his glass aside and stepped closer, nudging his hips to my knees.”

The burgeoning friendship between Daisy and Roman is also at the heart of this female empowerment story. Kendall gives Daisy real insight into her own actions when she interacts with others, making her the most well rounded characters ive read in a long time. She doesn’t make excuses for Daisy…instead she confronts Daisy’s decisions head on, making the reader have their own conclusions on the situation. She makes Roman more than Italian beefcake too, startling Daisy into confronting her own bias. Roman is also fully formed and smart as a whip, blaming much of his personality on, what else? The women in his family! Three older sisters and a strong Mom.

So ignore the cover and read more into the book. It’s not average, same as others, or cliche in any way. And there’s no traditional cliffhanger…Just a hint at a bigger story. I can assure you, it’s a very satisfying conclusion and you will wish for book 2 immediately.

Kitty Kendall’s Sinful Escape Series Book 1 tells the story of Daisy Chayne, who is a tour guide in London. She is on a work Visa which expires in six months sending her back to Australia. Her smoking hot driver Roman, tells her to ”live it up” with the remaining time that she has. So she does. She begins to find herself and her sexual desires. She is frustrating at times as she is so hard on herself. But I think that’s what we all do when searching for our true selves.

This is a fast paced rom com that is pleasantly pleasing. Ms. Kendal writes a brilliantly evocative novel with smart, witty, and creative characters. Her novels are laugh out loud funny and irresistible. I am looking forward to the next book in this series.

Kitty has hit another one out of the park with this one!! Daisy is one of my favorite characters and this is one of my favorite Kitty Kendall books yet!! This book is fun from the very beginning. The descriptive writing of the places and experiences puts you right there with Daisy in Europe, and it’s so easy to lose yourself in the story, which I love!! The name of this book is spot on and I am waiting impatiently for the next book in this spicy, adventurous, fun-loving and sexy series!!

5 Stars

Sinful Escape is the first book in the ‘Six Months of Sin’ Series by Kitty Kendall. This is such a sexy, fun read- full of all the witty, sexy, steamy, and funny antics we have come to expect from Kitty Kendall. The story has fun, adventure, a little drama, racy encounters, fantastic characters, depth, emotion, self-discovery, sexual awakening, learning to live again, friendship… and much more.
Daisy is in Europe on a working visa- every travellers dream. Or so you would think. But Daisy is just going through the motions, and not really ‘living’ or appreciating the opportunity she has. But when she discovers that her visa won’t be renewed- she’d had so many things she’d always planned to do and now she may never get the chance. Now she only has six months left to make the most out of her European experience. So instead of acting ‘old and boring’ like she has been doing, she decided to grab life by the horns and embrace the sexy, young, fun woman she knows she can be. With the encouragement of her co-worker, Roman- Daisy sets off on a steamy adventure across Europe. She embarks on a trip that will mark a lot of firsts for her- a trip she won’t soon forget.
I loved this story and I really loved Daisy and Roman. It was such a fun book to read. I love how easily Kitty Kendall pulls her reader into her stories, painting lush, rich, and vivid images. Everything was so descriptive and detailed- I felt like I was actually on tour with Daisy, Roman, and the rest of the cast. From England, to France, then Monaco, through Italy, on to Venice, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, The Netherlands, and Belgium- I got my own mini European tour, just by reading this story.
The characters are really well developed, dynamic, and interesting individuals- with their own unique personalities, quirks, and flaws. It was so easy to invest in Daisy, and Roman, and the outcome of the story. There were times that Daisy really frustrated me, especially with her negative inner dialogue- but once I got to know her better, I understood why she is like that. But that didn’t stop me from wanting to shake some sense into her from time to time.
If you are looking for a fun, sexy and captivating read- with wonderful characters – then this is the book for you!
Can’t wait to see what they get up to in book #2!

Thank you, Ms. Kendall!

Kitty takes you on a journey. Self discovery at its best. Traveling in Europe, meeting new people and seeing awe inspiring places. How will Daisy thrive? What will she discover about herself? There were funny parts and some very emotional parts. Steamy….and leaving you wanting more. Can’t wait for more.

Kitty Kendall has packed the fun and heat all in one story yet again. Daisy is fun and flirty. And not just that she’s a person one can relate to. I fell in love with this story from the very first chapter. She’s funny, spunky and everything in between. And when she’s dared to let loose and find her inner sex kitten, she at the end is determined to no holds bar. My favorite man is Roman. And without giving to much away. Y’all just have to pick up this book and read.

Because OH MY LANTA!! HOTNESS AND LAUGHS OVERLOAD!!

Can’t wait to read the next in the series!
