Sloth
Have to say right from the beginning this book had me rolling! I have truly enjoyed this whole series but Sloan was so funny and yet she showed a vulnerability and at times a toughness that resonated with me.
Who knew that such a well balanced FMC could lead such a convoluted life? The way that she views herself and her brothers. The willingness to not let her sin control her life and her innate sense of hacking have led her toward her not strictly obsessive need *but darn close to it*; to torment her “ex” Max in any and every way she can. But sometimes her pranks end up backfiring on her…and that’s when we really see the chemistry between Max and Sloan heat up.
If you love action,adventure,laugh out loud and cover your face in embarrassment moments….then this is the book for you! This is one book you won’t want to miss!
Hurry and one click this book today! You’ll thank me later!
So when we first saw Sloan in Envy I have to admit to being unsure of her as a character. However after this book I absolutely love her! Sloan is an absolutely badass and I cannot get enough of her. Max is pretty awesome too. And as Liza amazingly points out, he is the best name “His name means big d**k… Get it, Max for maximum, Johnson for d**k?”
I love this story & this is one of my favorite series ever! If you love superheroes then this is the series for you. Definitely a must read.
When Sloth gets off her gaming couch, the world is going to rock.
I enjoyed this book. It was interesting to see how Sloan and Max would work out in their relationship. I would recommend this series!
When you are closely associated with the sin of Sloth, finding the desire to do anything can be a challenge. And when the guy who broke your heart turns out to be your lifemate, that isn’t necessarily a motivation for change.
This is book three in the series and it works pretty well as a standalone. I did miss out on a lot of the previous family dynamics, but I had no problems keeping up with the main storyline. That being said, I look forward to going back and filling in the gaps.
This is a paranormal action story with a slow burn romance and lots of action. I read the description of the story and still was not sure what to expect, but I am pleased to say the book certainly delivered. The story is well written and easy to read with lots of action that keeps the story moving. Both the characters and setting are well developed with lots of details that bring the scenes to life and help pull the reader into the story. I really enjoyed how the characters interacted and worked through their issues. Overall, it was a very fun read and I look forward to future installments.
Highly recommended.

Engaging first read from the Deadly Seven superhero series
—>>> A tight-knit superhero family, developing powers, lifemate/ying-yang connections, and the ongoing war against the diabolical Syndicate. My first read of this series showcases Sloan Lazarus, embodying the sins of Sloth, who has to deal with an ex suddenly hired by her big brother and being front and center in her life. If only they had not broken things off the way the did years ago. But Max has been honorably discharged from the army and has valuable skills to add to the team as an intelligence-gathering specialist. The lifemated members of the Lazarus family now have more at risk and even more to protect. A slow-burn romance occurs between Max and Sloan as they reconnect, albeit reluctantly, especially on Sloan’s part, but it is only a matter of time before her developing skills could cause more damage than help their cause, and their past desperately requires reckoning. A true fight for justice, creative twists and turns, as well as heart-tugging moments made this a very engaging read, and I look forward to reading Gluttony/Tony’s story, as the glimpses we got into his state of mind are promising to be a great story as well.
I really enjoyed this addition to the series!! Sloth is a great read. It took me on an adventurous ride and it was hard to put down! My favorite of the series so far!
Sloth: A Fated Mate Superhero Romance (The Deadly Seven Book 4) by Lana Pecherczyk is an awesome story to read. This is book number four in this awesome series and I highly recommend it to all.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book
A great addition to the series.
This was a story that I’ve been wanting for and it didn’t disappoint! I loved the chemistry and attraction between Max and Sloan was great and loved how the storyline progressed. I was also glade to see past characters brought back to see what they are up too! I can’t wait for the next book to see what will happen next! I voluntarily reviewed an Advanced Reader Copy of this book.
Sloth was a juicy story I was immersed in from the start! Sloan and Max were emotionally vulnerable main leads with very in-depth personalities. (I’d go out on a limb and say these two were the best developed characters of the bunch so far and I’ve enjoyed all the previous books!) I really enjoyed how much of a slow burning romance Max and Sloan had as well. It allowed for plenty of time and opportunity for the two to come to terms with their previous fall out in a reasonably healthy way. More interactions between the family members are always a plus too! Sibling rivalry and parental comments provided some comic relief as well as family strength…and coming on top of Sloan and Max’s own pranks and shenanigans…plenty of hilarity to lighten the mood from the war the Deadly Seven are waging at home and out in the world.
I loved Sloth’s story and I must say she is my most favorite Deadly Seven siblings so far. She is strong and vulnerable both at the same time. She can be lazy at times but when it truly matters not one works as hard as her. In short, Sloan is perfection.
Sloth is still angry at Max for the way he ended things back when they were dating. Her idea of revenge is playing pranks on the guy. But when they are forced to work together, she soon realizes that her feelings for him haven’t faded away with time. The guy broke her heart and she isn’t ready to give him another chance. However, her very DNA is going against her. Now, she must listen to his side of the story otherwise they’d never be able to move forward.
If Max is being honest with himself he would admit that Sloan is the reason he came to Cardinal City. It is not easy to resist her. She is badass and he feels strongly for her. But is there a future for them or will they just break each other’s hearts all over again?
Together, they continue fighting the Syndicate; the biggest enemy of Deadly Seven and the peace in their city. Just like every book in this series, Sloth not only tells the story of Sloan and Max but the side story continues as well. I especially loved the fact that we got to know Despair a little better in this book. I also enjoyed all the little titbits about Tony and can’t wait to see what the author has in store for him. All in all, this is a great read and the series is going very well. Each book contributes to the overall plot and gives us more insights about the ‘Deadly’ siblings. Ant their little banters keep providing us additional entertainment. I think I have mentioned this before, but I really love how they all interact with each other. That gives their characters so much depth and you can feel how real they are. I think this series is a must-read for anyone who enjoys paranormal or superhero romance stories. And even if you don’t I highly recommend this as your first superhero story. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
I love how original Lana’s books are. We get a fun, light story about Sloan finding her inner queen and getting the guy too! Lots of action and some steamy moments make a great book! Not as gritty as previous but that provides a good break so we are ready for the next one!!!! Loved it!!!
I think this was by far the best book in the Deadly Seven series! Lana Pecherczyk has really outdone herself with this one!
To tell the truth, I’ve been waiting for one of the sisters to get a book ever since Envy. I was really interested in Liza, Sloan and Parker the most out of all the siblings, but after looking at the series order, Parker will be one of the last ones to get his book, so guess I’m going to be waiting for a long time….
Nevermind!
Coming back to my newest girl crush – Sloan Lazarus, I fell in love with her in this book! In the previous books, she was heavily pulled down by her sin – Sloth, and was basically either sleeping or lazing around all the time, so no-one was really expecting much from her, especially not her family. But, she really pulled herself around in this one!
Sloan has had to deal with so many things, starting with her online boyfriend disappearing on her after she revealed her secret and losing the motivation to keep her sin in check. But, now the guy who broke her heart is back and she has to deal with him being around her all the time because Parker has hired him for their security team.
Max has come back to Cardinal City after being dishonorably discharged from the army, and he hopes that at the very least he can make a difference in this world by protecting and helping the vigilante family that fights crime in the city. To be around the girl who we once loved is another perk right? Even though she keeps playing pranks on him and they hate each other? Or do they really? Hmm.
I think my favorite part about this book was Sloan’s character development and the emphasis on girl power! In the previous books, we were seeing all the events and the family from a guy’s point of view. We never really got to see how Sloan felt about being viewed as a last option just because they thought she was lazy, and how she had to deal with the crime-fighting!
“And for the record, that’s not me losing my shit. That’s me teaching you mansplainers to think before you speak.” She wrenched that pain reflex tighter, feeling satisfied at their grunts of surprise.
“Next time you accuse your sister of being lazy or not pulling her weight, you’d better open your eyes first. If any of you had looked beyond your own male pride, you’d have noticed I’d been working my ass off to get my skills under control.”
This scene was hands-down the best part of the book! *slow clap*
Sloan slowly starts coming out of her shell, by starting with some pranks on Max, then training for a mission and then finally fighting for her mate! The transformation is so skillfully done that we, the readers, feel so happy when she is comfortable and confident in her own skin!
And the relationship between her and Max was so beautiful that I wanted to give them a hug every time they had a scene with each other. This was more of a second chance romance and we get to see tiny references to how they were in the past too. Both of them have their own set of issues to work through, but the chemistry between them is explosive! I was waiting for them to work through their problems and come together!
What sets Max and Sloan apart from the other sibling pairs(and what I really liked about them more than the other couples) is the fact that he already knows her secret. So, there is nothing much she has to hide from him except the secret that he is her mate. And even that gets resolved quickly. So, the major issue for them was the big misunderstanding! Yep! You got it!
I love how much faith Max has in Sloan despite all the stuff that has happened between them. He pulls her up and makes her shine like she is supposed to!
“No.” He grasped the back of her neck, angry. Lightning flashed in his eyes. “Don’t do that.”
“Do what?”
“Belittle yourself. It’s not the makeup. It’s always you, Sloan.”
Be still my heart! <3 <3 <3
The overarching plot is also beginning to pick up speed at this point and we get to learn a lot more about the Syndicate's goals and their key players. The Lazarus family is slowly coming together to fight against the main threat which is the Syndicate. But, there are many issues to be resolved, with the unmated siblings fighting to keep their balance and the mated siblings fighting to keep their mates safe from the threat. We had thought that the siblings would be safer and more balanced once they find their mates, but it turns out there is one downside that they hadn't known about before. One that could cause a major threat and loss of control!(view spoiler) I'm totally loving the twists and turns!
And can I just give a big hug to Tony? My poor baby! He was such a great help to Sloan in this book! I loved how much warmth he added to every scene and him playing match-maker is the funniest thing! xD
“AIMI?” she prompted. “Tony said, and I quote, ‘Debbie Downer needs to sort her shit out before we go on this hike.’ Then he ordered me to stop the elevator until you had. Debbie Downer is you, Sloan.”
Everyone in this book is so wrapped up in their issues that they can't see how much difficulty he's having with his own sin! And come on Parker, get that stick out of your ass and cut your siblings a break! I wonder what kind of mate Parker is going to have because it's going to take a special one to handle him! Like Sloan said I really do hope his mate is someone who repeatedly says no to him! Lol!
And I can't wait to see how the story with Despair/Daisy is going to go! I'm dangerously addicted to the series at this point and waiting for the next book - Gluttony is going to be so hard!
So, what are you waiting for? Go on and grab this series immediately because there is no way that you will not end up falling in love with it!
OMG! It was worth the wait!
“Sloth” is an exciting thrill ride, adventurous addition to the “Deadly Seven” series and well worth the wait. It answered all the questions raised in “Greed” about Sloan and Max, and created some more about Daisy/Despair. Sloth is the perfect blend of humor, drama, action, and suspense mixed with the love, confusion, anger and despair of relationship issues. The book ends in kind of a cliffhanger that was more intriguing enough to anticipate the next book. The D7 in action is awesome!! This should be your next guilty pleasure. I’m hoping Tony/Gluttony is next!

Title: Sloth
Author: Lana Pecherczyk
Genre: Contemporary Superhero Romance
**RECEIVED ARC FOR HONEST REVIEW**
Yay Pecherczyk has redeemed herself. I adore this series but the last book, Wrath bored me to tears. It was a very slow read and I felt there really was no connection with the characters. Here I mean you know Sloan and Max are in love and hurt and fighting it from the word go. They knew each other, got their hearts broken, and came back into the other’s lives. So I think that helped. It wasn’t new but it was in a way.
I love Sloan. She isn’t like her sister who embodies lust and is a police officer. Sloan is Sloth. She can be lazy, brooding, guilty, pessimistic, and just not care. She has a sensitive heart and her brothers have always treated her as a screwup because of her sin. I liked she had a little more curves due to weight gain but then she lost them all when she got back in fighting shape.
But seriously, as far as sex, this book was a tease because it wasn’t about that. It was about being wanted. Both needed to know they were wanted. In a way all the books are about that. Each character needs to know they are loved and wanted for who they are. They are accepted. They are good enough just the way they are.
