Atticus has the power to unravel my deepest fantasies and reveal my truest self. In his embrace, I find a freedom like no other. A love that casts the ultimate spell.

Our love won’t just set us free; it will make us whole—if we survive the one who already owns me.

Vanessa Fewings has created an intricate story with scorching hot passion, heart stopping twists and heartaching feels. Atticus and Eve took my breath away. This story was explosive, sinful and beautifully angsty. The secrets never stop coming. The emotional are intense. You won't be able to decide whether you are extremely turned on by the BDSM debauchery or terrified for the fated couple facing danger. Atticus is the ultimate alpha and Eve is his perfect queen.

Renowned Surgeon and well coveted Dom Atticus Sinclair is on a mission with his three friends who are also rich,successful and known Dom. They want to take over and save the BDSM club Pendulum from the evil owners and save the submissive who are stuck there against their will. His path crosses with Eve, wife of the real owner of Pendulum and he is instantly intrigued. Eve has so many secrets and layers. Will she be an enemy or a soulmate?

Everything is this story is precariously balanced. Eve is so strong and resilient even after life has hit her with pain and grief over and over again. She is stuck in her golden cage and she has no way to escape the clutches of her husband. At least she didn't..until Atticus entered her life. She wants him to be a saviour and get back her daughter but she is scared and paranoid. Atticus has to play a part in Pendulum and he knows everything need to be done in a precise way so that the innocents don't get hurt. He has his own emotional demons and it makes the mission very personal one. He is an enigma. He is rightfully arrogant. He drips confidence in every word, every step, every action but even he is on the edge about Pendulum. There is no doubt about the magnetic pull and electric attraction between him and Eve but so much is at risk and he cannot afford to make a mistake. Their trust didn't come easily. The love came easier. The passion came easiest. Eve didn't wait for Atticus to save the day but Atticus definitely played the main role. His nature is possessive and protective and it went against his every instinct to let Eve play her own schemes. It was erotic and suspenseful and overall an amazing experience.

This story spellbound me. This book weaves a dark and intoxicating tale of Eve and Atticus, characters whose intense and forbidden connection leaps off the pages. Atticus, with his mysterious allure and a mission to take over the notorious club Pendulum, is irresistibly drawn to Eve, a woman caught in a dangerous web of luxury and deceit. Their chemistry is electric, making their story a thrilling blend of passion and peril. Fewings' skillful storytelling balances the erotic with the suspenseful, keeping me hooked from start to finish. This book is a perfect mix of seduction, intrigue, and the promise of redemption, making it an unforgettable read.

Another titilating tale weaved by Vanessa Fewings! This is a spin-off Series of Enthrall and we get to know Atticus in detail in this book! I also enjoyed the banter he had with Jake, Cameron and Grayson throughout the story! Atticus meets the married Eve at the club and their affair starts a crazy train of drama, emotions and danger! I was routing for them despite all the obstacles in their path...I highly recommend this series, can't wait for the next one!

WOW, this started off with a bang!
It was very interesting to see the events taking place in another POV from book 1. And this time, it’s the elusive Atticus Sinclair. Right away, he draws you in. He is feared amongst the D/s community for have ‘high standards and expectations’ from subs. And while he never thought he could be warmed, he meets the equally elusive, Eve.
Their chemistry was so intense right off the bat.
It was poignant in every scene they shared.
I absolutely love the erotic style of Vanessa’s writing and stories. It’s sexy yet classy. Which I think can be hard to accomplish sometimes with these types of stories.
Atticus and Eve’s story, behind the club, was filled with mystery and intrigue.
And it sets up the next book perfectly, which I did NOT see coming!

5 Stars!

Stunningly brilliant. Captivating. An erotic thrill ride in a world I’m completely obsessed with!

Everything about this book is AMAZING! From the gorgeous cover to the continuance of beloved characters to a dramatic, perfectly crafted story that dazzles, I was enraptured from beginning to end.

Chandelier Sin brings us back to Pendulum, the exclusive den of malefic pleasures and illicit games commanded by a board of unscrupulous elite.

Atticus Sinclair is one of four who are trying to acquire the establishment and eliminate the evils within. But their desire to transform Pendulum into a safe haven for those behind its impenetrable walls has put them all in danger, as the current reign, who have an ugly taste for the extreme, are not apt to let it go.

I’ve been intrigued with Atticus since he first appeared in the Enthrall world. I honestly thought he was somewhat of a “bad guy” the first time he was introduced - a deviant mystery, unexplored. And he is, but in the best possible way! His character was so well done. He’s broody, sexy, devilishly charming... and deep. I loved getting to know him.

Atticus and Eve are a forbidden match, but neither can resist the temptations the other brings. Atticus is a man with nightmares. He has a penchant for the darker pleasures and a reputation for giving those pleasures and then saying goodbye. The idea of commitment, love, and true partnership are risks he’s not willing to take... until her.

Eve is bound to a life she desperately wishes to escape. A perverse gilded cage, ladened with debasement. She can’t trust those around her, and she has secrets she can’t afford to reveal. She’s given up on happily ever ... anything. Until him.

Atticus and Eve’s chemistry exploded off the pages! Intense and fascinating, these two were scorching together. I was consumed by their story. As I flipped through each page, I was eager to see what happened next. Their story was everything I hoped it would be and more. The push-pull was exciting, addicting, and sinfully delightful.

Vanessa Fewings has a unique way of creating tantalizing worlds and capturing the very essence of her characters. Her storytelling is refined, worldly, sensual, and, most of all, romantic. She expertly displays these qualities for her readers. Every corner holds a new carnal forbiddance, and we are so here for it all!

I can’t end this review without mentioning that I absolutely LOVED how this book’s timeline coincided with the first book, Chandelier Dream. It was fun seeing some of the scenes from a different perspective. Book three has been set up perfectly, and I’m beyond excited to see what happens next.

Everything single thing about Chandelier Sin is perfection.
The cover caught my attention right away. It is so beautiful and eye catching.
The characters are multilayered and are so fascinating.
The plot and storyline are gripping and intense.
I was riveted from start to finish.
Pendulum is a place where fantasies are played out and desires meet.
Where safe play is supposed to be the utmost priority.
But Pendulum reeks of vileness. Evil and cruelty front and center.
Atticus Sinclair and his friends want to own and gain control of this establishment.
Protect and care for the submissives within. And rid the place of the cockroaches that are running it.
I adored Atticus. I loved the vibe of him. His energy is alluring. And everything about him is magnetic.
Getting to see the different sides of him and seeing his persona more in depth was enthralling.
Eve piqued my interest. On the outside looking in. It would seem she has it all.
She too has complexity and layers to her. She is the definition of “Don’t judge a book by it’s cover.”
From the moment her and Atticus cross paths. There is a pull and draw between them.
They can’t stay away from each other. Even if they know being even seen together is dangerous.
The chemistry with them is absolutely combustible. Their lust and passion is steamy and hot.
And explodes and comes to life off the pages. I could feel what they had. I could feel the intensity between them.
Ms. Fewings blends perfectly the danger and the sexy. The depravity of some and the sensuality of others. She balances everything brilliantly.
Just like the deliciously sexy and spicy scenes had me flipping the pages.
So did the drama and suspense. I was kept me on the edge of my seat and my heart thumping wildly.

I absolutely adore the Enthrall Sessions world that Vanessa has created. Vanessa is one of my favorite authors, and she’s crafted a world that any woman who appreciates the erotic and sensual aspects of love and physical satisfaction could fall for. These books make me dream of having a partner like that, even though, as an older woman, I’m not going to explore those things with my partner now. But when I was younger, I would have loved to be adored and worshipped like Atticus Sinclair adored Eve Roper. Eve and Atticus were drawn to each other from the moment they met. However, Eve is married to the cruel Aemon Roper, who owns Pendulum—a BDSM club that pales in comparison to Cameron and now Richard’s Chrysalis. Most of the subs at Pendulum are there because they have no choice. Eve herself ended up there, believing she was bought at an auction to be saved. Her story is far more complex than she initially realized. She stayed with her husband because of her daughter, Eloise, not knowing where her husband had sent her or if she was safe. Atticus falls for Eve, but he knows she can only leave her husband once she ensures her daughter is safe. This book is another incredible, angst-filled story packed with excitement. I loved it and can’t wait to read the final book in the Enthrall Sessions. Also, I’m thrilled whenever Cameron and Mia Cole, my favorite couple in the series, are mentioned. Dr. Cameron Cole is definitely one of my book boyfriends!

I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review for Stephanie's Book Reports.

I will go ahead and warn you that when you pick this book up, your not going to be able to lay it down. This is the story of Eva and Atticus. You are going to be in love with Atticus. The bonus of it all is that he has such great banter with his friends that I was so excited every time they would have conversations. Eva and Atticus meet at a club. Atticus has a reputation, he is actually feared really in the community. He has super high standards and expects a lot from the woman he chooses. He he also loaded and is very just Atticus. It's the only way I know to describe him. I will say however, that I love how well we got to know him in this book. Eva is a beautiful and elusive. But I promise you will know more about her than I am telling you. When he and Eva meet it sets off a firestorm of drama, danger and oh how the emotions are going to fly all over this book while you are reading it. I was a mess at times reading this book. Eva and Atticus are so perfect for each other and they will have you on the edge of your seat at times. I don't want to give anything away, but I could go on and on and on about this book. It is one that you just need to grab and enjoy. You won't regret it.

HOLY INTENSE HELL BATMAN! Chandelier Sin was a story that kept me guessing cover to cover, and trust me, I didn't move an inch until every last page was read. Eve's life is a nightmare, and she can't leave it behind because there's a HUGE complication that has her putting up with terrible things in her marrige to an evil pig of a man. Atticus & his friends are determined to save a bunch of submissives in the truly evil club, Pendulum, which just so happens to be run by Eve's husband so there's that crazy issue as well. The moment these two come face to face, they're definitely drawn to each other, and the sparks are flying but understandably, they both have serious trust issues because this world is filled with betrayal. No matter how much they try to stay away from each other, it's not happening, and he's put himself in the crosshairs of her husband so I was so anxious about that other shoe dropping like you wouldn't believe. There's so much going on in this story with all the crazy twists coming in hot with many evil moving parts, not to mention, who can anyone trust at the end of the day?! It made for an exciting but emotional story with a heat filled kicker that I couldn't get enough of so I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

What a Rollercoaster of Sin

Dang, I swear how does Vanessa every time created these male characters that just completely engulfed my senses. Book 2 is about Atticus and Eve you see in book one that Eve Is the masked woman Atticus meets on the secret floor so much of this story is the same timeline as the first book but from.their perspective. So much happened with thrm, and honestly, Atticus hid from his friends and also Co buyers that I never knew. Eve is the ultimate prize you can't touch, and dang well never get to be with, but Atti is all in. Vanessa really made this a lot about the plot and the darkness that makes up the Pendulum. You know that their submissives are not there of their free will, and you start to uncover the true darkness of the people who are really in control of the Pendulum. There was a ton of back and forth with Eve But she didn't see alot of truth until the end which was hard for me to understand but sometimes when your in evel so much maybe you don't realize it's Evil. But Atticus was great had so emotional baggage and the #1 Cameron Cole is in this one alot which I was giddy about.

This book did not disappoint at all. As usual Vanessa Fewings caught me in her creative story web and I could not put down this book. I finished this masterpiece in one day. The amazing characters we love from her Enthrall series joins this series to build on this sensual story of pain, seduction, loss, love, and forgiveness. Highly recommend you read this book. The intricacies of this complex storyline takes you to another world. The story of Eve and Atticus is my favorite so far in this series. These two main characters will have you swooning crying and hating them while simultaneously loving them. I love this roller coaster ride. This book brought me on. I just hate that. I have to wait until February 2025 for the next one. For me it is 5/5 stars and I have already preordered my copy!

What an incredible story! I have to admit that for the last 25% I had to remember to breathe I was holding my breathe so much as I was completely caught up in what was happening, the suspense was incredible. Vanessa Fewings has the ability to have the reader experience and become immersed in the surroundings and emotions through her words and this book is the perfect example. The evil of the Pendulum board, the richness of the surroundings, the light and sparkle of Chrysalis, the comfort of Cole’s office, the misery of Aemon’s house and joy in Atticus’s are perfect examples. Evil was overcome in this story but I am not sure it is eliminated as Jewel is still around, but Greyson’s story is next and I am sure at least some of the remaining questions will be answered. A must read book.

Eve and Atticus captured me!

I was totally immersed and "enthralled" by their story!

Intense, suspenseful, emotional!

There were times my heart was in my throat, and times where it was difficult to breathe!

The characters were so well fleshed!

The dialogue helped with the feeling in each scene!

Erotic!

Chandelier Sessions has been a captivating series so far, and I can tell you, the wait is going to be so, so difficult!

If Ms. Fewings sold the movie rights, I'd be right there in the movie theatre! Yet, every time I read her stories, I feel like I'm there, watching it on a big screen with the surround sound making you the ultimate voyeur!

This story, this series, 5+*s for me!

This is the second book in this impressive series, and this is Atticus and Eve’s story.
From the moment Atticus, wearing a devilish masquerade mark, and Eve cross paths, there is an instant and intense connection between them. Atticus and his friends are determined to take control and save the submissives from an evil club, Pendulum, which is run by Eve’s husband.
This is a well written action packed, easy to read, emotional roller coaster, with friendships, mystery, danger, suspense, intrigue, challenges, drama, trust, witty banter, humor, tension, retribution, palpable chemistry, and love, which leads to an entertaining, tragic, twisted, haunting, and unpredictable, captivating, dark romance.
I look forward to reading more from this talented author whose work I highly recommend.

I am enthralled by this ongoing saga that takes you deeper and deeper in a world of darkness, mystery and drama. we are back at Pendulum, where darkness is the norm and the board of evil individuals reign. One of the four individuals willing to acquire Pendulum is Atticus Sinclair, he is one of the most intensely feared dom in this world, expecting perfection from the subs, when he meets Eve, he met his match. They share the most intense erotically scorching scenes and their intense chemistry will make these intimate encounters intriguing.

I found this to be one of the less successful books by Vanessa. I still find her writing powerful and her characters are well developed. However in this book I was not enthralled by the plot device where the storyline tracks that of the first book in the series, albeit from a different perspective, and it is not until a long way in that we get fresh development in the overall story.

I also failed to empathise with Atticus who seemed to act both illogically and selfishly through the first two thirds of the book. Eve is wonderful with clear powerful motivations for her actions.

5 stars + From its beautiful cover to its back cover, this book is classic, exotic, suspenceful and completely beguiling. Dare I say it? Yes. It's totally enthralling. The book is set in the same timeline as the first and this acts to add layers of richness to every event as well as providing insights and further intrigue. Atticus is such a rich, compelling character, perfectly balanced by the enigmatic, carefully secretive Eve. What a brilliant combination. Written with addictive flare and beautiful prose, this book has a wonderfully complex plot and sparling dialogue. The atmosphere is of of imminent jeopardy creating a tension that ratchets up slowly and inexorably throughout. A book, and series, to treasure. 💖💖💖💖💖💖

Loved this book!

I loved this story of Atticus and Eve! I never would have believed that Atticus could allow himself to love. They both have been through so much trauma. The first time that Atticus sees Eve, their attraction is fire. They meet when he, Jake, Greyson and Cameron go in to try and take over Pendulum to save the women. Atticus and Eve’s road is long and not easy at all. They face so much danger. But together they can survive anything. I will warn y’all, this book is long! But so worth it! Prepare to take some time with this one, but it’s definitely worth the time! Love this book and series! I highly recommend it!! I cannot wait for Greyson’s story!

Never disappointed. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I have always enjoyed VF books because they have heart, compassion and excitement. I love how all the characters are intertwined throughout the story of the main character. It’s like seeing old friends still there for each other. The layers in each story lets you be in the moment and even with the heated moments, it doesn’t take away from the story. There are still more characters to read about from this series and I can’t wait.⭐️🎵🎼🥂🍾
