The Brooks family just gets better and better. The chemistry between Ryland and Chloe is as intense as their secrets.

This book picks up exactly where Kiss of Redemption ends where Ryland is still reeling from killing one of the Twisted Hearts. His first meeting with FBI Agent Drake does not go that well due what he has done and who she is, she believes he is hiding something. Even though she knows this it does not stop chemistry being off the chart between the two of them.
Sins of Justice is an emotional ride, with hot sex, a power struggle of who protecting who and since this is Florida a hurricane. I could not put this down.
This is only my second book by Maggie Cole and I cannot wait to read more.
This book is making me fall more in love with the Brooks family. Ryland is so hott and the type of guy I’m looking for! Maggie wrote an amazing book with this one as she introduces us to Agent Chloe Drake and we get to know Ryland Brooks much better. I mean, how isn’t he the most perfect guy?!?! He’s hott as hell, dominating in the bedroom (which is dreamy), and protective of his family. He will do whatever it takes to keep them safe. I can’t wait to meet the rest of the family better!!
Agent Chloe Drake is a sweeper for the FBI. She has been on the case of the Twisted Hearts gang going wherever she is needed trying to put the members away.
Ryland and his brother Hudson own a construction company. They contacted the FBI three years ago to help prove their brother Beckett was set up and went to prison for a murder he didn’t commit.
This intense read is action packed with suspense, danger, drama, secrets and lies. Ryland dominates Chloe’s body and their chemistry is off the charts.
This series is giving me all the feels, I love the Brooks family. This book focuses on Ryland Brooks and the aftermath of his actions to protect his family. What he didn’t anticipate was a new FBI agent Chloe Drake and their growing attraction to each other. The more the spend time together they learn of each others secrets and the struggles they fight within themselves and learn to accept and love each no matter the outcome of their actions. Can’t wait for the next book with Gabriella Brooks and Javier Lopez
Where book 1 introduced the Brooks siblings within Beckett and Mia’s story, this book naturally builds on that and we realize that the stories in this series are not back to back standalone stories but are happening simultaneously and each book is telling the events via that particular couples perspective. Ryland Brooks and Chloe Drake know thry should not get involved, he just committed a sin of Justice killing a twisted hearts gang member who threatened his family and she is the FBI Agent investigating the gang but the pull between them is inevitable and cannot be denied and they come together in some steamy panty melting scenes. Ryland is a super hot alpha that Chloe can’t resist. Prepare to feel the same!
Ryland Brooks starts this book being distracted and no quite himself, as per the ending of Kiss of Redemption (Book 1) so when the new FBI Agent Chloe Drake shows up on the island to help Agent Lopez it throws him for a loop.
He is instantly putting his whole family at risk with the secrets he keeps, and should continue to keep secret, especially from the FBI.
Chloe is a smart beautiful women, and is quickly wrapped around the strong capable and talented fingers. Will Chloe get to the bottom of the Skate’s issue, or will Chloe have to arrest her new bossy man.
Book review
Sins of Justice let me see if I can tell you how I feel about book 2 of the #togetherwestandseries ok, ok Now my love will always be for Beckett. Watch out Christian Grey. RYLAND BROOKS is coming thru. @maggiecoleauthor has got the touch. Im telling you people if your not reading this series you need to be. It is a emotional rollercoaster. Right when you get to a person, bamm!! She rips them from your life. All is good though. As always you can find the synopsis on Goodreads. I want to think Maggie Cole for making me love my ebooks. Bringing me the brooks family. You find all her books on Amazon and they are available on KU. So move on over oldies, hello Brooks family. On to the 3rd book in the series. So stay turned.

Are their sins justified or not?
Sins of Justice is the second book in the Together We Stand series that is about the Brooks Family. This family is fantastic as the members struggle with the past in order to have a future.
I had not read the first book, Kiss of Redemption, when I started this books so I was not sure if they really needed to be read in order. I will say that I stopped about a chapter or so in and went back to read the first book. It added more context and introduced the characters and the overarching story-line. So I would highly recommend that you do read the first book before this one.
This story is about Ryland Brooks and Chloe Drake. They have an interesting and intense journey, starting off with a big bang. Ryland is ready to defend and protect his family at all cost, including killing if needed. Chloe is an FBI agent who is trained to kill if needed. She is assigned to the case looking into the clearing Beckett Brooks. It ties into a current case she is working on, investigating the Twisted Hearts. She is sent to Anna Maria Island to meet up with Agent Lopez. When she and Ryland first meet it is explosive in a number of ways. They have an immediate attraction and pull to each other. As they get deeper into the investigation things heat up both between them and with the Twisted Hearts and Jimmy Cline. But before it is all over they will each have to decide if their sins are in the name of justice or not.
Maggie Cole has written an very intense, fascinating, engrossing and highly entertaining book. It is well written with a solid story-line and wonderfully developed characters. I really loved this book and can’t wait to read the next in the series.
I received a copy of this book for my honest review. My opinions are all my own.
Ryland kills to protect his family. Chloe is willing to kill for revenge. Both are justified so is it really a sin? Ryland and Chloe both get what they want when they find a common ground. Hot steamy sex. The Brooks brothers once again stand together to protect their family. They may argue and disagree but they have each others backs. You’ll enjoy it from beginning to end then want more.
This is another amazing book written by Maggie Cole. Lots of sex scenes. It reminds me of 50 shades of Grey, except Ryland is hotter!
Ryland Brooks cannot face reality that he has committed murder. He will do everything in his power to keep that a secret. FBI Agent Chloe Drake is in town to seeking answers about a case involving The Twisted Heart, but finds more than she bargains for. What happens once Ryland and Chloe lay eyes on one another. They cannot deny their attraction for one another. What happens when work and play blurred lines.
Gripping!
I need a Ryland in my life stat! He can tell me what to do anytime! Honestly, I wasn’t sold on Ryland at first, but from the moment I started reading his and Chloe’s story I’ve been hooked. I literally could not put this book down until I finished it. It gave me ALL the emotions, particularly reminding me I need someone to feed me, care for me, and make me think of jellyfish!
Sins of Justice is the second book in the Together We Stand series. The Brooks family sticks together through thick and thin. Ryland Brooks is trying to set his world to right after an act very far removed from what he ever thought he could do. Chloe Drake is an FBI agent determined to bring down a criminal ring. They will work together trying to thwart the Twisted Hearts gang. Each has their own secrets. Each has a strong fierce personality. Their chemistry is steam heat. There’s just enough kink to keep it interesting, but not enough to leave you feeling dirty because you enjoy it. Love this family. Love this book.
Wow is all I can say!!! Maggie Cole does it again! Ryland knows what he wants and gets it too! Cannot wait to read the rest of the Brooks series!
Sorry, no spoilers here!!!
Maggie Cole has a knack for steamy romances and the story of Ryland Brooks and Chloe Drake does not disappoint. Maggie manages to keep Sins of Justice out of the darkness unlike Fifty Shades. On pins and needles waiting for book 3 “Acts of Manipulation.” Another 5 star read from this #FanGirl
Ryland Brooks, the new bad boy, will take you for a ride! He’s possessive, works hard and loves to play even harder! His story is full of twists and turns that keep you turning each page to find out what happens next with FBI agent Chloe Drake. The second book in the Together We Stand series from Maggie Cole is bound to send your blood pumping!
