Oh man Maddox is amazing. Maddox is a tough alpha guy that is loyal and protective of his friends and family, he helps his friend Jake who we met in book 1 run his casinos. He first sees Isabel when she is dancing at a strip club ran by a crazy mafia man that practically runs Vegas and whom Maddox owes for his help he done for him. Isabel has struggled her whole life trying to keep her and brother alive and doing so she is under Anthony Conti's control. I really enjoyed the push and pull between the characters and the taboo that Maddox shouldn't want Isabel for several reasons but once he decides he wants her there is not stopping him. The book has a lot of action, twists and turns, and steamy moments. I can't wait for more stories in this series because it has some very interesting side characters. ( )

4.7 stars

This book is even better than the first. I loved Jake and Fiona but Maddox and Is are even better. Not sure how that is even possible but holy hell. Is, is a little fireball and Maddox didn't stand a chance against her. Their chemistry was off the charts.

This author has an impeccable writing style. Her cadence, tone, and word choices are exemplary. She knows how to balance suspense, romance, and mystery while throwing in just the right amount of steam that enhances the story.

I highly recommend this series and author. One of my favorite authors that I discovered late last year. ( )

J. Saman is new to me, and I am now a fan. I seriously enjoyed reading Catching Sin. Maddox is a smoldering hot guy who falls for the one girl he should never be with. Don't these guys ever learn? This girl, Isabel, is intoxicating with her beauty, but she is completely off limits because she's already tied/trapped with a notoriously bad guy. Aren't they always? Through a series of seemingly random events, Maddox and Isabel are face to face and wanting what they can't have. From here, it's a slow burn. They are in each other's lives due to circumstances beyond their control. The heat continues to build, and neither can deny the attraction. I won't spoil anything, so I'll just say Maddox and Isabel each have some kind of trouble that could destroy them. It's an exciting journey through the back stage area of Las Vegas. I liked the sarcastic humor and the dialogue between all the characters. Maddox is tough and chiseled and not the kind of guy who gives up easily. He carries a lot of guilt about his past and needs some kind of redemption. Isabel is young and gorgeous and in over her head which spells disaster for any man who cares about her. She needs protection, even though she's tough enough in her opinion. Everything is at stake for her. Such an entertaining and spicy hot read! It's a twisted chaotic mess, but if these two play their cards right, they just might save each other. ⁣⁣ ( )
