Right from the top let me say that this needs audio accompaniment. This was one sexy, sweet read. Driving stick has a new definition and it has given me a new way to look at our sexy, sweet, delicious Englishman. I highly suggest that you read all three (Before Sin, Sin, and then Sinful) together or soon after each other. This man has many layers. Sin series was a great addition to the Blake Security firm group of sexy hot males and heroines that tame them somewhat. Those wanting a bigger picture start with the beginning of Blake Security males. Gemma and Matthias are not your sweet typical romance of romance. They have rawness, secrets, and that sense of family & friends.
Who will be up next from the security firm? I am not sure and I certainly am not going to be picky about who gets there next.
Omg!! I love Sinful!! The perfect ending to this Duet. Matthias and Gemma’s story was heartfelt and suspenseful. I was at the edge of my seat throughout the whole book. It’s twists made me cry and feel more for both Matthias and Gemma. They’ve been through a whole lot and I am so elated that they got their own HEA. I really enjoyed reading their story and seeing my favorite characters rekindled. The Malone’s did a wonderful job and I can’t wait to read who they will write next.
I voluntarily leave an honest review of this Advanced Reader Copy.
Matthias is just the right amount of SIN!
I look forward to anything that Nana Malone & M Malone put out! Individually, they create characters that warm your heart and make you want to jump into the story… Together… They are explosive. They have created a world of sexy (& deadly) sweethearts (disguised as BAD BOYS!)
Sinful is the conclusion to Matthias’ story. And it takes you on an emotional rollercoaster ride. Matthias in the previous installments was the quiet, computer nerd who didn’t say much and had a dark core that he only let out to protect those he loved. But that was the jist of what we knew of him. This series brought us his story and the conclusion to why he became who is is.
Gemma is a link to Matthias past and an eye into his future, but there are obstacles standing in the way of that. He knows he must protect those he care about so he has to do it in true Matthias fashion, even though these ways leave him alone.
Blake Security doesn’t stand for this. They must find a way to stay safe, help Matthias, and keep the family intact!
The journey Matthias goes on with Gemma is just the right type of story for them. If you read the description, you may not think it will work, but the Malones are masters with telling a story of a semi-flawed hero/heroine!
Another excellent series & I can’t wait to see who they have up their sleeves next!
After that crazy cliffhanger from book one I was dying to dive into this book, and I was not disappointed. I enjoyed it a whole heck of a lot. Even more than the first. I was a little nervous about how it started out. I was worried we were going to have a book full of everyone hating on Gemma and chasing after Matthias. Luckily, that isn’t what happened and we head very quickly into what I especially love about this entire series…the character interactions and the feeling of family this group has.
As is typical of these author’s, the writing was fantastic. It was a fairly short book that took me around two hours to complete. It was told in a dual POV format. The plot was engaging and kept me turning the pages. There was a little angst at the start, but other than that this was a fairly easy peasy book relationship wise. There was no OW or OM drama. The sex scenes were hot and plentiful. As always, the secondary characters were awesome. I really hope Oscars duet is up next. AND…did I detect a little something with Andromeda and maybe Ian?? Both Gemma and Matthias were very likable and had a great on page chemistry as well. Last, it was all wrapped up in an OK HAPPY FOR NOW ending. Personally, I would have liked a bit more in that regard, but since we see these characters often in other books, I am going to assume we will be hearing more about their future in upcoming books. All in all, this was a great conclusion to a really great duet and a great addition to the series overall.
Hot damn the men of Blake Security are so hot! We finally get the ending to Matthias’ & Gemma’s story. This is Book 3 in the Sin Duet Book Series. I loved the 1st 2 books in this series. They had me hanging on the edge of my seat and flipping the pages as fast as I could. The cliffhanger damn near killed me. I couldn’t wait to dig into Book 3!
This isn’t your average romance. It is intense, dark, twisted, angsty, action packed, sexy, and steamy with surprise twists that you won’t see coming! The ending will have you saying OMG and shedding a tear or two. Matthias and Gemma are both kickass but they are both broken too. Will they be able to hang on to each other long enough to mend their broken ways and overcome their tragic pasts?
The great thing about this book is that it wasn’t predictable. It kept me hanging onto every word. I love that the characters are interconnected in the different books about the men of Blake Security. You go through a lot with these characters but you will be rewarded with an HEA. Hang on for a wild ride ladies! You won’t regret it!
Love Bonds Strengthen Us
Mrs. Malone had me all teary eyed by the end of this book. It was truly a wonderful conclusion to Matthias and Gemma’s story.
Sinful picks up right where Sin had left off.
Matthias leaves to keep his family safe and also to eliminate the people posing a threat to them. He’ll be going into the lion’s den alone and the chances of him surviving are small but it’s a sacrifice Matthias is willing to make.
What Matthias doesn’t realize is how much he is truly loved and that his family will stop at nothing to protect him, even if that means protecting him from himself.
Will they be able to find Matthias before it’s too late and come up with a plan to defeat their enemies?
This is the conclusion to Matthias’s story and one you will absolutely not be able to put down. Sinful starts right where Sin left off. It’s very heart felt and your emotions with be all over. This is an amazing story.
Of all the men of Blake Security, Matthias has been my favorite. He always seemed a bit lost and a whole lot of broken, but in the Sin Duet, we finally got his full story. In Sinful by M. Malone and Nana Malone we finally see him come into his own and find his true worth and it was so worth the wait.
Truth be told, I have loved all the men of Blake Security, but there was just something about Matthias that always called to me. He was so strong and caring. He would and has protected those he loves with all he has, but he never saw himself as ever truly belonging, until now. He was such a good man, but never could see the good in himself as others did.
If you have read the first book in the duet, which you need too before reading Sinful, you know Matthias and Gemma have a history. Gemma was perfect for Matthias. She was strong, caring and understood him and his history. She wanted nothing more than to protect him, as he has always done for her. But can she reach him before its too late?
The truth is finally revealed about Gemma and the consequences could be dire for everyone. But Matthias is one of them and if he wants them too or not, his family will stand by him. Will they find him in time to help him? Once Matthias and Gemma face all their demons, will anyone be left standing?
Though there was a lot of suspense in the Sin Duet, it was also very sweet seeing Matthias fall and fall hard. Gemma was his match in every way and the kind of woman he needed by his side. I loved this duet so much and cannot wait to see what else this writing duo brings us for the men of Blake Security.

Happy reading!
Sinful The Sin Duet Book 3
by M. Malone , Nana Malone
I must give both of these two authors Minx and Nana Malone their due. They are the Dynamic Duo because the books that they write together and separately are the BOMB! They can ROCK YOUR WORLD as TWO or ONE, I absolutely enjoy reading everyone of their books I have read. You can’t put any of their books in one certain specific category their books are drama full, intriguing, suspenseful, enemies, secrets, visionary, loving, adventurous, full of humor, has the green eye monster jealousy, passionate and romance. Everyone is so fabulous, the enjoyment of reading their books because they will make you laugh, bring tears to your eyes and hold all of your attention until the end. Oh My I just have to say it again these two ladies are Dynomite! If you are like myself you are totally engrossed in this Sin Duet series. I was so looking forward to reading Mathis story. He is the type of man women can’t help but fall for and I was so excited to read his story, I maybe telling my age by saying this but THIS BOOK Is All That And Bag Of Chips with a scrumptious chocolate cake thrown in. I absolutely love reading this book and I feel any book without some type of romance just feels incomplete. I enjoyed reading this story so much it’s so unique, I enjoyed the characters feels so real along with their real flaws. You can’t help but really enjoy recognizing the humanity in each character and the fact that they’re not the cookie cutter type. This a story is full of landmines, for sure. But I feel that a story should always seem believable and it’s especially important in a romance novel. I enjoy the way it feels when the two main characters are able to fallen in love with each with all excitement the authors can generate. This is the last book of Sin Gemma and Mathis story. Of course as in the two previous books Sin is a exciting and captivating book to read. There is still a lot of drama along with the tragic parts that happens, but because both Mathis and Gemma loses their innocence together. It’s so exciting knowing they have to save Mathis and Gemma friend Siobhan life. Now they are openly fighting the Father , their responsibilities are staggering. Their decisions directly impact the lives of the people in their family. But what makes this book sad is the surprising twist that Gemma friend Siobhan is waging on two fronts: Mathis fighting his and her enemies. Prejudice, fear, greed are all conspiring against the future Mathis and Gemma wants to bring about. It’s so disheartening that the fate of their world is at stake. As usual, there was a lot of action and adventure in this book. Mathis and Gemma plus the rest of the gang undertaking a daring, hazardous mission but this time they are not alone. Using new (experimental) technology, they travel silently through enemy territory, confronting the bad guys, with both Mathis and Gemma committing some expert deceptions (or as he would call it “manipulating the people and computers to get out of tight spots. This trip is so dangerous, that it had my heart in my throat the whole time. In the previous books, the optimist in me always knew they would come out unscathed but as I see how this could changed them both, I’m not so sure anymore. I mean, I’ll know they will ultimately win but I wonder what will be their cost. The events in this book point to a very exciting series finale. There are still lots of unanswered questions from previous books, specially as it relates to the Father’s organization. We know that Mathis has grown more powerful and he knows he’s finding his family. The “power of love” and all that, but he still doesn’t know exactly how it works. I get the idea that we will find out in spectacular fashion in the last book of this series. Minx and Nana Malone keeps the excitement coming until the very end plus the story promised and delivered so much more with this book. So if you are looking for a Phenomenal, Magnificent book to Read you may want to make room on your TBR list for more books from the Malone ladies, because as I indicated before you will be HOOKED from the beginning on each one of their books!
Damn, these Malone women can WRITE!! Through all the various Blake Security stories, my love for their writing has grown, as has my love for their heroes and heroines. I have a soft spot for the original couple, Noah and Lucia, and always will, but I can safely say that Matthias and Gemma have uprooted them in my heart with their amazing journey to love.
Sinful picks up right where Sin left off, with everyone reeling at the change in Matthias, who has just run off after nearly taking Noah and Rafe out. So it’s now up to Gemma to go get her man. But will she have the support of Blake Security or will they be too mad at her for flipping Matthias’ kill switch and making him revert to his cold-blooded assassin alter ego? Thankfully, as Gemma comes to realize, Blake Security is a family, and Matthias is part of that family, so they offer her their support as they struggle to find and bring in one of their own.
In case you were wondering, Sinful answers a lot of questions that have popped up throughout the Blake Security series about ORUS and Noah and Matthias’ beginnings, and it finally gives us Matthias’ complete backstory. It’s a doozy, so come prepared. But do be expecting to be dazzled, because you will be. Sinful is trademark Malone goodness – action-packed, intriguing, super steamy, with characters whose many different layers are only beginning to be peeled back. I’m anxiously awaiting the next member of the Blake Security team to get his story (Oskar please!) Whose ever it ends up being, it will be hard to top Matthias and Gemma’s story, but I know if anyone can top their own amazing story, it’s the Malones.
Picking up where Sin left off, Sinful wrapped things up with flair! I love the theme of family and camaraderie throughout the series and the point was driven home in this entry. Matthias’ past was fraught with secrets and shame, but meeting Noah at a pivotal point of his life gave Matthias a new lease on life he was finally coming to understand. His journey was a wild ride of loss, love, and new beginnings!
I am loving the concoctions the Malone’s have whipped up with the Blake Security team! Those steamy romances, strong characters, wacky humor, and fierce family ties provide for some great reading!
After Sin’s cliffhanging ending, we can breath again in the conclusion of Matthias’ story. A lot has happened that he can’t explain or even remember, but he knows deep inside that something very wrong is going on. He has found his place, a family, and his long lost love is alive and back in his life. But Matthias thinks of himself as a monster that could only do harm and does not trust himself to be around anyone, specially those that he cares about. Blake security guys and ORUS will have to’work together if they want to save Matthias and end with the Family.
Sinful is action packed, but specially passion packed. Gemma and Matthias story is filled with great surprises, unexpected twists and turns, lots of steamy passion, great friends and unexpected surprise family members. This story will make you laugh and cry, but it will also make you fall in love with these special guys and the girls they can’t leave without. Awesome story from Malone squared. Can’t wait to see what will they come up with next.
This book had me all over the place. First let me say that you need to read these in order to understand. Sinful picks up right where Sin left off.
Matthias and Gemma have such a history with the “Family”. It’s beautiful watching Gemma and Matthias find themselves again and develop as a couple. Matthias has gone through so much in his short life and to see the people around him rally and help him “deprogram” and find love was just pure joy to read. This book takes you to so many places. I loved the Tigger scene and of course the ending! A great read!
Sinful starts off where the last book in this series leaves off and boy oh boy is it full of steam and lots of action. Matthis and Gemma are still looking for ways to get their life on track so they can be together and have a life and we will finally find out if that is possible in this book. You will really want to set some time aside so you can read this from start to stop because once you pick this up you will not want to put it down. it is totally worth it though.
Another Nail biter! Matthias and Gemma have been through hell and back. We pick up where Sin left us hanging and what a resolution! As we continue with their story there is more suspense and thrilling moments and of course smoking hot scenes. It’s hard to know who to trust but you know who the evil one is in this case. I love when a story can pull so many emotions from me, including sad, happy, fearful and adrenaline pumping.
The writing is genuine and exciting. The collaboration of this writing duo shines through again and again. If you have never read a Malone/Malone series, this Sin Duet is a great one to start with. It can be read as a standalone series, but I encourage you to start from the very beginning of the Blake Security men. Each of their stories is worth the time and the lack of sleep.
I was so excited when this landed on my kindle!! The cliffy killed me and I was all, “aww hell nah! You killin me smalls!” LOL. Really though, this picked up where the first book slayed us and it was pretty quick paced. You start realizing that something isn’t quite right, I mean duh, Matthias went a little cray cray, what I mean is, there’s this underlying situation that when revealed you’re like ah ha! I knew it wasn’t just Matt! I don’t know if that even makes sense if you haven’t read it, but in my head it totally made sense.
So after the root of the problem is revealed, I was happy with the reunion of Gemma and Matthias. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect after all that happened at the end of book one, but the authors did not disappoint in the steamy department. We also finally learn the full extent of Matthias’ backstory and wowza! I know I haven’t read the other books in this series, so I’ll be going backwards, but it’s definitely a must! Another thing I loved about this duet is that you really get that feeling of family with these guys. They may not all be blood-related, but they are most definitely a tight-knit crew and willing to do whatever it takes for each other.
I was so happy with the conclusion of this book and I’m eagerly awaiting maybe Oskar’s book? *wink wink* In the meantime, I’ll be backtracking and reading about the other hotties in this crew. Really have come to love these authors and so happy I came across their books this year! **Pounds chest twice and throws up peace sign** …yepp…nerd.

4.5 stars.
Picking up from where the previous book ended, Sinful is quick in getting the action started and my heart literally broke for Matthias in the beginning of this book. I’ve always been a massive fan of his, he’s definitely been my man since I was introduced to him and I hated seeing the effects of his past hitting him full force. Of course he’s got his friends and colleagues rallying around to help him whether he wants their help or not, not only in getting answers but also in getting some closure.
Gemma…I had a hate/love/hate thing with her in the previous book but that changed yet again with this instalment. Finally getting the truth helped win me over to her side but what really sold me was the way she genuinely did care about Matthias.
This book was everything I’ve come to expect from these two authors. Full of action, suspense, mystery and so much hotness it’ll have you fanning yourself, Sinful is a brilliant conclusion to Matthias and Gemma’s story.
An intense and sexy end to this duet! Ashley@White Hot Reads
After the end of Sin, I wasn’t sure that Gemma and Mathias would have their happily ever after. Writing a review for this book will not do it justice. This book is a roller coaster of emotions. The end of this duet is a story of passion and overcoming obstacles with the love that has withstood the test of time. There are lots of twist and turns that you do not see coming. Love can conquer all! The Malone’s have done it again and I am not sure that they can top this duet series.
The second part in the Sin Duet and it starts right off when the first book ended. Which was at a point that had me yelling at my ereader. I was glad that i didn’t have to wait to long to find out what happend.
Mathias is so confused about what he has done and why. his emotions are all over the place, he being torn . It made him more human and more his age.
This book is action packed, full of interigues, twist and turns about what is happening and who can you trust.
What I loved about this book is that everyone at Blake is family and they help each other no matter what.
I am definitely going to read of these two authors.
Matthias and Gemma’s story that started in Before Sin then gave us Sin, now concludes in Sinful. Nana and M Malone definitely gave us one hell of a thrill ride. I LOVED this series!!!
From start to finish this story is full of twists and turns. It’s suspenseful, and intriguing. The chemistry between Mattahias and Gemma is palpable. These two are SMOKING HOT!!! And the chemistry between Mattahias and his Blake Security team is AMAZING as well. I LOVED every moment of this story. Can’t wait to see what’s next!!
