The Seller was smokin’ hot and intense! This was my first Loki Renard read and she didn’t disappoint! The writing is beautiful and draws you in. Filthy, hypnotic, and addictive…I couldn’t read this one fast enough! If you’re looking for something slightly deviant and a whole lot sexy with an interesting story that unravels a little more with each page, then you definitely should read this one!! Five SEXY AND SUSPENSEFUL SELLER stars!
LOVED this steamy, completely original dark romance by Loki Renard. Five hot, kinky stars!
Another emotional, psychologically deep, and full of suspense romantic MUST-READ!
Once again, author Loki Renard gives her avid fans a marvelous romance disguised within an action packed and deeply psychological thriller. Once again, she titillates those readers with the promise of “there is more to this story,” and when that “more” is delivered it is so totally out of the box, that the reader’s reality is modified by the knowledge. Renard’s ability to tease, entice torment and tempt her readers is part of the magic each of her novels brings. While it is in part why her fans come back to drink at the well of unveiled reality Renard promises in each plotline her novels present. That Renard reality has a touch of science fiction, urban fantasy, and erotic darkness that makes each novel divergent, better than the last, and deeply tantalizes both the readers’ imagination and authenticity. As a prelude to THE SELLER, the author challenges readers with an “I dare you . . . “and then delivers on that dare in the most creative and unexpected ways. While I’m not altogether sure I would want to stay long in Loki Renard’s demented imagination, I look forward to each novel she presents with bated breath, knowing full well that the words she weaves will have me falling in love with the flawed characters like Siri, and the anti-heroes like Stavros, and then rooting for their happy for now or that happily ever after a romance is sure to deliver, or not . . . . I voluntarily read a copy of THE SELLER and this is my honest and VOLUNTARY recommendation. If you like your romances to lean to the dark side while presenting a MEMORABLE and creative story full of realistic characters, then the 5+STAR recommended THE SELLER by Loki Renard should be your next romance purchase. Get your copy today! Happy pages!
The Seller was a good book about Siri and Stavros and everything that they struggled with, and the secrets both of them hid fro each other.
I haven’t, in a long time, read a book that surprised me more with it’s plot twists!! From first page to last, I was totally engrossed with Stavros and Siri’s story. These two are dark, damaged, hold tight to their secrets, and so compelling. Loki Renard has done it again!! Love this book, love these characters.
Anything you think you know about this book…yeah, you probably don’t. This book was so damn good and it takes you on the wildest ride. Honestly, I don’t even know what to say…I know, right…shocking. I am quickly becoming a big Loki Renard fan. Love the writing style, the ability to pull out so many emotions, and to be able to entice you to read something that you may not have read initially…and to get you to love it.
This is a dark read, with some spanking, hand and belt. There is a scene that may have triggers for some, but Stavros saves her. These two were hot, hot and this was a bit of a mindf*ck. An OTT dominant alpha, a smart, sarcastic and tough as nails female, older man, younger female. Great storyline, so many emotions, a little bit in the future and an hea. If you want to read a dark romance that will have you staying up late to read it, this is the book for you.
Expect the unexpected and Loki will surprise and sweep you away. That was once again an interesting twist, wonderfully fluently told and oh so great. The inner power of the heroine unbelievable, in everything. And she can drop herself, at the right time, with her own hero, HEA and everything … that’s what I want!
I love Loki and her twisted and sadistic characters, and The Seller is no different. Loki brings Stavros and Siri together when Stavros has Siri kidnapped and brought to him to have sold to the highest bidder. It wasn’t personal. It is all business. But Siri is okay with this. She needs to leave before her family finds her.
The story of Stavros and Siri is dark and sometimes a little funny. But all in all a good story.
The Seller: A Dark Romance by Loki Renard Stavros trains women to sell. His associate drugs them and brings them to him. His task is to break them, make them submissive and into a sexual slave. He is good at what he does and enjoys the perks of the job. Stavros doesn’t need the money. When Siri is delivered to him he can’t wait to train her. However something is different about her. She isn’t like all the other girls. One she seems to be well educated and has an heir of sophistication. Two he has never wanted to keep one of the girls for himself. The story is about his attraction to her while trying to figure out who she is and what her angle is. I liked the story but it never drew me in. For a short story it shouldn’t have taken me as long as it did to read this book. Once the mystery was solved, the explanation and conclusion wasn’t plausible as far as I was concerned. Regardless the banter between the 2 was entertaining and they had chemistry. I have read previous books from this author and will continue to do so. However this was a 3 star read for me.
Stunningly good!
Well this is another gripping, entertaining and extremely well written story from Loki Renard.
Stavros and Siri are both deeper and more complex than they appear, many layers form these twisted and intruiging characters. Both have elements of light and darkness and yet neither one of them is completely one or the other.
Brilliantly written, this story and the characters will keep you guessing the real story in play. Combine that with heat, action, mystery, lots of intruige, murder and mayhem and you will enjoy every second of this book. I loved it!
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.
Being sold is just the beginning. The best thing that ever happened to me was getting drugged in a nightclub and waking up in the possession of a man twice my age, a man who tells me he is going to train me and then sell me to the highest bidder. What he doesn’t know is that I am safer in his cage than I am on the streets. He’s not the worlst man in my life. He’s not even the most dangerous. He wil awaken my desires. He will mold me into his perfect toy. He will make me marketable to the rich and twisted. Then he will sell me. And I’ll be free. It’s the perfect plan, as long as I don’t make the one mistake that will ruin everything ….Falling in love.
I went into this book blind. I had no idea what it was about I just knew that it was a dark romance and that dark romances are my passion. I love them and can not get enough of them. With that said I will say this is not one of the darkest books I have every read. It’s not ultra violent and as harcore in the scenes as some are. But with that said it is has a moment or two but the real thing about this book is trying to figure out what the heck is going one with the main female character Siri. She wakes in the basement of a human trafficer. Stavros is the man she ended up with and he is not exactly what she was expecting. I guess you could say that he is a bad man with a heart and from the moment he lay his eyes on her and she opens that sassy mouth. There is so much more going on in this book than meets the eyes. I don’t want to give away anything that happens or why it is happening. I was guessing just like you will be and some things I got and some I did not. This book was so good that I read it in a matter of hours and was sad to see it end. I loved these characters. Siri is a tough as nails, get out of her way or she will make you pay tough. She is smart too. I don’t see how she came up with and executed the plan she had in this book. Stavros is a man that grew up with a mom who sold her body for a living so selling humans just kind of feel in his lap. However he is a man with his heart and is not cruel or very mean to his wowmen. It is kind of like tempt them with candy and they will do exatly what you want them to do and he is very picky with his buyers. It made me really like that he wasnt’ just this evil man who had no soul. You will see what I mean when you read the book. This was my first time reading a Loki Renard book but now that I have discovered her it will not be my last. Grab this book and enjoy the ride y our about to go on with these two amazing characters.
People can change?
Who is the “Bad Guy”? Who is using who? It has a twist I didn’t see coming. The characters were strong which makes for great reading when they clash. This book was a different from a typical type dark romance. It’s story that is dark, mysterious and even made me laugh. I enjoyed this story immensely and I would recommend this book.
Take everything you think you know, or what you expect, when it comes to abduction stories and toss it out the window. Going into this one with any expectations as to what direction you think this story is going to take are just going to keep you confused. Instead, enter this one with the expectation of secrets, lies, danger, passion, and tons of sexiness. There are also characters who will keep your head spinning, and a plot that will keep you on the edge of your seat with the anxiety of not knowing what’s going to happen next.
This story is semi-dark, but please don’t let that discourage you from enjoying it. I don’t want to say much because I hate spoilers of any kind, but don’t worry about it being too dark. This is much more of a psychological thriller than a super dark romance. Don’t let that description turn you away if you love the dark, either, because there is dark, too. I know that sounds confusing, but you’ll get it when you read this.
This might be one of my favorite Loki Renard books yet! It’s totally different and still has all my favorite elements of what makes a great story. Her writing is always unbelievably amazing and she knows just how to walk that line of will they/won’t they. I know the HEA is expected but I’m always surprised at how she gets there.
This is a fast paced, dark thrilling read with plenty of twists and turns to keep your attention! Well developed characters with some mystery thrown in.
As usual an awesome read from Loki Renard!
Once Siri finds herself captured by Stavros, the Seller, she’s exactly where she wants to be, Stavros is as confused as we are as their surprises are revealed. Nothing is easy, explanations make no sense, Siri is not what Stavros expected. I was enthralled by this story, it had me guessing all the way through. As I read and tried to figure out what was really happening, Siri’s training continues and no answers were coming. This is a book that will grab you and never let you go until the very end when all is made clear. Read it, if you’re ready for a story that keeps you wondering and totally captured.
The transaction of Siri
—>>> “I am a monster, but one with ethics.” ~ Stavros
Stavros does not know what to make of this girl who does not act according to his usual expectations. She no longer is the simple and straightforward “financial transaction” trained for his high-demand hobby. Instead, she intrigues and captivates him, becoming the object of his intense scrutiny.
Loved the intense interaction woven with well-described thoughts and emotions from both points of view. I was wholly drawn into this cat & mouse storyline!
The Seller: A Dark Romance. This is the second book that I have read by this author and I enjoyed this dark romance.
Siri is taken by The Seller. To be trained and then sold to the highest bidder. She arranged to be in the position to be taken by The Seller. She knows something he doesn’t and it is a huge secret.
This is a dark romance but not nearly as dark as some that I have read. The subject is dark. There are parts that I had to laugh at because yes the material is dark.
But when is a sex trafficker, I don’t know “Humane”? I know there are people who care nothing about human lives. So, The Seller was a nice sex trafficker.
All in all it was a good story and it kept me entertained. That’s a winner in my book.
Stavros and Siri are two broken people and not your average hero/heroine. Siri ends up kidnapped from a club and taken to human trafficker Stavros. She doesn’t act like any woman in the situation would so Stavros becomes intrigued by her. They both have to follow one rule: Don’t fall in love. A great twisted story and psychological thriller.
I received a copy of this book and am leaving a review.
The Seller by Loki Renard is the story of Stavros and Siri.
Stavros grew up with a mother that sold herself so besides the struggle of living it was living with the things going on around him. The adult Stavros is into taking women, training them and then selling them which is how he meets Siri. Siri was a women that was taken but he knew from the first site that there was something different about her. Siri hasn’t had it easy either which leads her to this life that she wakes up in. For Siri this life isn’t as bad as what she is running from.
Page turner of a story.
I loved this story! I mean, yes, it’s a dark romance, but the words! So many good words that will make you smirk and possibly even cackle with glee. Not the happy glee. More like the kind of glee that your therapist would give you a raised eyebrow. Possibly a cough or a harrumph. Mixed in with the words is a dark romance that is delicious in all the wrong ways and you will love it. Along with the fabulous storytelling. The characters are broken, but you would expect that in a dark romance. It’s what makes it so good. In fact, I’m quite certain that “The Seller” is my new favorite Loki Renard story and that’s saying much. This review brought to you without spoilers. I hope.
