The Whore of Chicago, that's Bee according to the gossip;
she finds herself unable to find a job because her
undeserved reputation precedes her. As the anticipated
snubs have become reality, Bee is feeling the strain but
instead of being depressed and discouraged, she is angry,
very angry. Billionaire Nicolas has a plan to deal with
the gossip, but Bee is unable to accept the conditions he
poses. Cyndi's world is topsy-turvy, and nothing is as it
was for almost anyone.
SINFUL REWARDS 7 is the thinking woman's erotica. The
seventh instalment in Cynthia Sax's Billionaires and
Bikerscan be read even by someone who isn't familiar
with the previous books because there is so much content
in that novella, and because of the way it's conceived,
it can stand on its own. Subtle metaphors reveal hidden
truths behind the characters and add to an otherwise
already powerful narrative; a few significant events from
the past serve as catalysts in the evolution of the story
arc.
In SINFUL REWARDS 7, Cynthia Sax exploits an effective
angle to illustrate the turmoil of Bee's life: how one
might feel defined by inanimate objects and surroundings,
and how one could choose particular objects and
environment to project a specific image, regardless of
personal taste. Colours play an exceptionally strong part
as well in defining the characters: Hawke's grey to Bee
and Nicolas' black and white, how colours represent the
characters' frame of mind, how they appear to others, how
they symbolize their perception of the world. I also
found fascinating at how Ms. Sax shows how Hawke and
Nicolas' approach to order and chaos mean very different
things, and how Bee's propensity to clean and scour is
symbolic of her way of coping with issues. And again
Bee's beautiful red designer purse plays a role of great
importance.
SINFUL REWARDS 7 is a book to be experienced: the story
moves along very quickly, the level of sensuality and
sexuality reaches stratospheric levels. Ms. Sax writes
with such intentional precision that, at times, the
choice of a particular word or the use of singular or
plural makes all the difference in the context. SINFUL
REWARDS 7 had me thinking, crying, as well as cheering
wildly at some of the choices that were made by the
characters.
Bee Carter has been offered everything she has ever dreamed of—a caring, lasting relationship with a handsome, often charming billionaire; the permanent home she's never had but has always craved; and wealth to buy the designer fashions she loves, support her hard-working mother, and ensure her acceptance by Chicago's elite. To obtain what she's desired for so long, she has to do only two things: Walk away from her best friend, a woman who is destined to betray her … and end her passionate nightly encounters with a certain tattooed biker, a former Marine who can never give her what she needs. Her answer should be clear, but the heart has a way of complicating even the most straightforward decisions.
