Fresh Fiction Review

Sweeter Than Sin
Shiloh Walker

Reviewed by Annetta Sweetko

Romance Suspense

It had been years ... years of pain and drowning in regret and alcohol for Adam Brascum. He's sober now had been for years ... which isn't easy considering he runs a bar and everyone is gathering there to discuss the allegations that had shattered his hometown. He feels the past he had tried to erase come back and it's SWEETER THAN SIN.

Then she comes back to town out of the blue, heating up every fantasy that Adam had ever had. He knows there is a killer out there seeking vengeance, ready to explode into violence and Lana Rossi might be targeted. Lana had been Adam's friend and growing obsession then she disappeared. Adam knows he must protect her because he realized that all the years of pain were because she had taken his heart when she disappeared from his life.

SWEETER THAN SIN is in my eyes a dark, gritty, intricate study of human survival. Adam and Lana both did what they had to do to endure their pasts, coming back to the beginning to really break it down and sort it out. If you haven't read author Shiloh Walker previous Secrets and Shadows books, you might be a little lost as it is very complex. I can't really say this is my favorite book by Ms. Walker, not because of the writing it is fantastic as always ... but the topic this series deals with is one I personally find disturbing. I found myself reading this book believing it to be mainly about love lost and found with a lot of pain in between.

SUMMARY

CAN’T FORGET THE PAIN
It took years for Adam to stop drowning his regrets in alcohol, and running the local bar doesn’t make it any easier—especially not when everyone he knows gathers there to discuss the shocking allegations that have shattered his hometown. When another murder rocks sleepy Madison to its core, it becomes chillingly clear that even more vicious wounds are waiting to be exposed.

WON’T RESIST THE PLEASURE
Nothing is sacred anymore, and no one is safe, least of all the mystery woman who shows up in town out of the blue, looking like every fantasy Adam’s ever had. She may have her own dangerous secrets, but she can’t ignore the urgent heat between them any more than he can. As a killer’s quest for vengeance explodes into violence, Adam is tempted to lose himself in the delicious promise of her body—until he realizes he’ll risk anything if she’ll give him her heart…
