Holy spice.. Spice and more spice

This was a short novella surrounding the 3 main families of the Singer's Bay series. Each family has a section in the book but they are all intertwined as well.
Each section has some funny moments and there's ALOT of spice. There is one female main character in each section with multiple male main characters.. If you get my drift...😉😉
So if you like spice and a little mystery then this is definitely a good book to read!!

Spicy Novella!!

I love this world! In this book, we got caught up with the 3 families from the previous books, and I loved seeing how their families are doing and how their relationships have grown. It was a perfect catch-up read, and I love this author even more for doing this!!

The short novella is surprisingly comprehensive. Readers will get updates on all the families that have been created previously in this series. Serena, Elsie and Aurora still have a handle on their guys. It is nice to get an update on our families. A hot spicy update. Readers will get their fill with this one. I loved it.

Unfortunately, there is a new threat. The families have to come together to make a plan to neutralize this new threat. I can’t wait to see how the families come together and if we add a new harem into the mix.

Maddens -
I loved seeing how their relationships have developed and become more secure since the first book! You get to see the deeper intimacy between Declan and Connor. You also get to see how Alfie is after what happened in book 1 and how it still lingers but Elsie helps chase away those demons🥰. Bens past is coming back but he doesn’t let it effect him present!

Mendez-
I loved seeing Dante and liams banter and competitive strikes show when it comes to Serena. Alejandro and Theo’s relationship is strong and I love how they act together.🥰

Morettis-

I love seeing Kenji and Luca’s relationship develop into more and how Caleb and Kingston have become more confident in themselves with Aurora in their lives. 🥹

I love a good slice of life, capture in time, post epilogue story from characters we already know. And for the most part, that’s what this is. There is an underlying storyline that kinda helps set up book 4 a little more (we already got some ideas from book 3) so it’s still on the same timeline as the third book (not set far into the future or anything). One thing this book does well is gives us a glimpse into all the family’s that we’ve already come to love. I love that they all kinda over lap and they families are all friends with each other and we get to see them interact outside of the crisis that took place in each other respective books. Am I sad we didn’t get any group scenes? Yes, deeply. But we did get to see a lot of one on one pairings (or trios) which really helped bring us back into how great these family dynamics are. And the heart warming moment for all these ladies on their fertility journeys was so special. If you loved the previous books and need something to tide you over until the fourth book gets released, pick this book up immediately.

Heck yes!!! A Sinful Halloween was a story I didn't even know I needed! It is full of swoony romance, cozy feels, and spice! However, if you are looking for strong storylines and plot, this is not the first pick for that as it is a novella and it is not very plot-heavy. That being said, this is a phenomenal novella and I 100% recommend it! It is part of the The Sinners Bay Series and follows Connor and Declan. We get more of their story and slice of life and A Sinful Halloween really fills out this world and brings together plenty of characters we know and love from the series for a spicy Halloween celebration!

A Sinful Halloween Review

Rating 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Spice 3 🌶 🌶 🌶 

This Halloween novella is a great addition to the Sinners Bay series. It’s good to catch up with the characters from the other three books and see how their lives are moving forward.

I completely, absolutely love this series! These characters are consuming, intense, and intriguing, every single one of them. Their storylines immerse the readers in every way and carry you along on these great rides. It's not a steamy story like their individual journeys are but it's a great little catch-up for in between. I loved it and I can't wait for the next book in the series.

The only regret I have is that I haven't read the first 3 books yet. This can be read as a standalone though. Oh my God...this book is sexy asf. I have not read rh/polyamory or whatever you call it done like this. So good. The spice is chef's kiss. Chapter 7 had me cracking up and chapter 12!! Lord, chapter 12...has bdsm and it was 🔥🔥🔥. Father Caleb had me 👁️👄👁️ the entire chapter. How can a priest talk dirty like that? Overall I loved it. I have to get my hands on the other books, because Father Caleb made me realize I had a priest kink of some sort.

I completely, absolutely love this series! These characters are consuming, intense, intriguing and absolutely smoking HOT, every single one of them. Their storylines engulf ls the readers in every way and carry us along on these great rides.THIS is what A Sinful Halloween is. It carries us further into the journeys of these characters, gives us more insight into their paths which in turn, in my opinion, endears them more to us. It's not a steamy story like their individual journeys are but it's a great little catch-up for in between. I love it!

A Sinful Halloween

This is part of the Sinner’s Bay Series and is a bonus holiday novella. This is a part of the series but can be read as a stand alone, although I definitely recommend reading the whole series. It may contain spoilers for the first three books.

Everyone is decorating for Halloween and living their best lives until a body is discovered on their property, and it wasn’t a decoration. A note is left that says there is a new head to the mafia.

This is a short but very spicy addition to the series.

This little ditty is a bonus to the series and brings the Madden Family (Elise), Mendez Family (Serena), and Moretti family (Aurora) all together for Halloween. I love that the families come together in this book. They are all preparing for Halloween when a body turns up, and even though there is this crisis going on we get to see relationships within each of the families flourish and individuals blossom. Im so in love with this series and Im not wanting it to end!

As always be mindful of any trigger warnings, what I like you may not.

Happy Reading!

This is a brand new author to me. I unfortunately have not read the first three books but I will be in the very near future. The only disadvantage I feel like I had I’m not reading them was I did not have a clear separation in who everyone was. It was a clear enough story and plot I felt comfortable reading it as a standalone. The writing was very good, story and plot all flowed easily. Spice is a 3.5/4. Will for sure be reading more from this author!

This Halloween novella is a great addition to the Sinners Bay series and a great read. It’s good to catch up with the characters from the other three books and see how their lives are moving forward. This book may be short but is still packed with action, humor & spice. I enjoyed catching up with everyone and can’t wait to the next book.

I love all of Elizabeth’s books. She is an amazing writer and this one did not disappoint. This has a few different view points from the families. It helps tie things together and gives a little more to the dynamic of the families.

A quick, spicy Halloween treat

This one is short, but so good. All of the mafia families are getting ready for the Halloween season. They're also trying to solve a mystery that's been dumped in their yard.
If you're looking for a quick, spicy read I recommend this one.

I had fun reading this short story, but it only makes sense when read with the other books. In this context and due to me liking the whole series, I rated this five stars. On its own, I would have rated way lower.
