Někdy vášeň zmůže vše...

Jsem Damien Sinclair, muž, který má vždy vše pod kontrolou. Vyžívám se ve vědomí, že mé slovo je zákonem. V tom jediném okamžiku, kdy jsem zaváhal, mě zachránila Gabriella Crystalová. Jsem zatraceně rád, že to udělala, a navždy jí budu zavázán.

Ella má v rukou nejen mé srdce, ale i mou budoucnost, mou prosperující společnost a všechno, co je mi drahé. Láska, kterou jsme kdysi sdíleli, je jako žhavý uhlík v umírajícím popelu. A my musíme vzplát v plamenech žhavé touhy.

What a way to end the series! Rekindling Desire was a good mix of romance, intrigue and suspense. The story was flawlessly interwoven between all the main characters and the twists and turns of Damien and Elle’s romance. Once again, the author has delivered a series that is worth the read. If you're into characters that have depth and dialogues that are engaging, I highly recommend this series.

Rekindling Desire picks right up where we left off in Remembering Passion. There are twists and turns and a couple of surprises that keep you on the edge of your seat.

The writing is wonderful and the story is pure second chance romance. You can’t help but want the magical HEA for both Gabriella and Damien. The love between the two had never truly left, it just needed to be rekindled.

Sucker punch of everything.... Aleatha has Aleatha'd me again!

Gabriella is such a strong FMC that I actually admired her. She was so afraid of losing herself within Damien, but she absolutely shined and was his partner in every way.

At the end of Remembering Passion, it ended with a superb cliffhanger. Gabriella announced their engagement to lDamien’s brother Darius in a bid to keep his position in Sinclair pharmaceuticals.

The twists and turns in this story left me beyond speechless. I really didn’t know what would happen next.

Aleatha is the absolute queen of suspense, romance, and throwing everything together we love in a good story. But the conclusion to the duet was fantastic and should be read first hand, so I absolutely recommend reading this book, but you must start with the first Remembering Passion.

Rekindling Desire (Sinclair Duet #2) by Aleatha Romig. This definitely was the perfect title for Gabriella and Damien's story. After making a quick out of nowhere decision, Gabriella and Damien are tying the knot. They are doing this because of that stupid addendum and his brother. Now, when they think things should be ok, other forces are at work. Damien's brother will not seem to slink away quietly, nor will Amber, and added to the mix are others who seem to want to undermine Damien. So many twists and turns with a sprinkle of intrigue and suspense, as they try and navigate all that is going on plus trying to rekindle their love, their plate is full. Loved Gabriella and Damien's love. She was so worried about losing herself. There is something to say about time apart and seeing what your life is like without someone. At first, I was concerned about where the author was taking their story. I was not disappointed . Don't know why I was worried. This author has never let me down. No one can write a domineering alpha male like this author. No matter how evil they maybe I can't help but fall in love. The female may feel weak, but she is actually stronger than she thinks. That was Gabriella. Heck, she even surprised herself. 4 stars for me

Book 2 in the Sinclair Duet continues right where it left off. This book is filled with more drama and lots of heat between Damien and Gabriella. I felt like I blew through this book so fast. While at times I was lost in all the pharma and coalition talk, I was on the edge of my seat wondering how it all was going to end!

Thank you for the ARC!

Damien and Ella sure know how to rekindle their love, passion and respect for one another. Fighting together against enemies, known and unknown. Another great world created by Aleatha Romig with nods to previous characters.

was okay

The story had potential and the author set up the characters but the plot pretty much never got past that point, why need security, why such a big set up with the coalition only for it to become a nonissue. I feel like the conflicts the author gave us were too easy, I got bored.

Rekindling Desire (Sinclair Duet, #2) by Aleatha Romig
4 stars
M/F Romance
I was given this book for an honest review by Wicked Reads.

Gabriella is the shining star of this duet in this second part. She was worried in the first book that Damien would overshadow her and she would be lost again. But, she was the epitome of partner, leading woman and shining star.

Damien has to lean on Gabriella in this book. With secrets revealed, a brother who's determined to ruin everyone around them and with board members who are out for blood. With a new wrench in his plan, he's more determined than ever to fight for what he wants in his life.

You won't be disappointed in this duet. It's an edge of your seat, what's going to happen kind of story.

The conclusion to Damien and Ella's story will have you riveted to the words. I didn't want to put this story down. Aleatha Romig knows how to draw a reader in. Her devious mind takes you on life's twists and turns brilliantly. This story will take you through greed, desperation, intrigue, high heat scenes, love and eventually a satisfying HEA. Watching Damien and Ella fight for the life they wanted was so satisfying and proved they were a team made for each other. Love is worth the battle.

“All relationships ebb and flow. That is life. Taking the time and making the effort to rekindle the fire—that is what is required for a successful relationship.”

“You don’t make me disappear, Damien. You help me shine, and I see that now. You make me see the world differently, and I’m seeing you differently.”

Rekindling Desire, the second book in the Sinclair Duet, picks up right where we left off in Remembering Passion.

I really enjoyed the story. Lots of twists and turns and steamy romance that you expect from Aleatha's book.

Gabriella is strong and fierce, and Damien is possessive and passionate. Their second chance love story is swoony and suspenseful.

Thank you, Wildfire Marketing and Aleatha, for providing me with an ARC copy of Rekindling Desire in exchange for an honest review 🖤

Now, that's the way to bring a duet to a close! Gabrielle and Damien have a labyrinth to navigate, the stress of a very sick parent, and foiling nefarious plots while also running a huge company. All while refinding their feet in their relationship with each other. But trust in Aleatha! She will guide you through it all flawlessly while ensuring you will not want to stop reading! Well written, passionate, twisty and totally satisfying, Rekindling Desire combines a great plot with total readability. Bravo! 💖💖💖💖💖

This was a ride! I really enjoyed Damien and Ella. Their second chance is a whirlwind of feelings, ups and downs, and some twists and turns along the way. I was pulled into their lives, could feel their frustrations, their hurt, and everything in between. They are strong characters and that was able to be carried throughout the entire duet. Loaded with fire, sweetness, and a true emotional pull, the two work, those around them keep things interesting and it's a great ending to their story.

I received a copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

After how things ended in the previous book I dived into this read as soon as it landed in my kindle. Just as expected from Aleatha, she blew my mind and left me speechless. There were so many twists and turns that I was on the edge of my seat throughout the read. I fell even more in love with Gabriella and Damien. I was in awe of there love. Gabriella is much stronger than she herself knows. I loved there journey and how things take a turn. It's a mesmerizing read that kept me wanting for more. Thanks to Aleatha and Wildfire Marketing for the advanced copy of this mind-boggling read.

Rekindling Desire was so easy to read and enjoy. The writing was well done and all the characters were very loveable. The storyline was so good and with some great twists and turns. I loved Ella's and Damien's relationship. Seeing them grow and love each tier again was great. The ending was so good and I was glad they got their HEA.

There was a twist in here that I didn't quite anticipate or like. Like, why? Just for the drama? And aside from that lil twist, nothing major actually happened. Hence, it was an okay conclusion to the duet. I was hoping for flashbacks, more backstory to their relationship but no.

It was just okay.

A thrilling ending to another spectacular story from this incredibly talented author! I absolutely gobbled up this final ending to Damien and Ella's story. It was everything this reader could have hoped for...intense, suspenseful, shocking twists and turns, oh-so-steamy love and overwhelming joy!

Damien Sinclair is an incredibly dominant man with all-consuming passion for those he loves, and Ella Crystal is the woman he cannot live without. Theirs is a love story that will not be denied, no matter the roadblocks they encounter. I LOVED every word and all the feelings that the author brought to life as I read. The pages flipped fast and furious. My heart was beating hard for most of this story until finally I could relax again at the end and smile.

Rekindling Desire is a thoroughly enjoyable read. I hope you grab it, jump in and love Damien and Ella as much as I do!

Rekindling Desire picks up exactly where Remembering Passion ended. I thought the story was going to go one way, but then Aleatha would take it in another direction. This was a satisfying conclusion to Gabriella and Damien’s story.

Wow this book is another masterpiece from Aleatha if I could give this book 5 star’s 🌟 on every page of the book I would. I hope you are ready to be Aleatha’d 💖

Rekindling Desire is full of twists that you don’t see coming and couldn’t predict coming as they come from nowhere. The book is addictive and a real page turner that keeps you glued to it.

Damien is even hotter 🥵🔥 than before as he’s still the sexy cocky arrogant man the business world knows him to be but to the people who he loves unconditionally he is loyal and protected off and yes that all so includes Duchess the cat 🐱 who is still loves him he shows a vulnerable side that he’s not known for. Damien is just a marshmallow who is hard on the outside but soft on the inside. Gabriella ( Ella ) is even more stronger and confident than ever and will fight for the people she loves the most. Having Gabriella at his side Damien has the relationship that he has always wanted the same one has his parents. Damien and Gabriella are a true power couple together 💖💖💖

As for Darius and Amber they will have you wanting to slap them for been blinded by jealousy.

Congratulations 🎉 Aleatha for another amazing book 📖

I am not sure what I may consider my favorite part of reading an Aleatha Romig book is - she always brings you back to where you left off when reading a duet, she doesn't write a character unless they play a pivotal role (in this case, a cute little dog: Duchess), and she writes characters' feelings and emotions so well the reader can imagine themselves in those situations. And this second book did all that! It truly delivered as an Aleatha Romig book. All the loose ends from book one were tied up, and the reader got their their HEA. The antagonists got their due punishments without being too harsh, and our leading couple ended up with their HEA. And the reader is left satisfied knowing they just completed an amazing story filled with betrayal, love and romance, revenge in the sweetest way, and a cute and steamy coming together of the leading couple.

Would I recommend this one? Heck yeah! You will love the characters, you'll truly experience the story, and you will end this read with a smile on your face.

You NEED to one-click this duet to experience your turn of being Aleatha'd.

Rekindling Desire by Aleatha Romig is the ahhmazing conclusion to the Sinclair Duet. If you haven’t read the first book Remembering Passion, you’ll need to before reading this one! Let me just say that I knew this book was going to be good but WOW-Ms. Romig totally knocked it out of the park! Rekindling Desire was full of twists and turns, greed, and a whole lotta love which made it hard to put down.

This story picks up right where book one ended. Damien and Ella are on a rollercoaster of a ride especially when Ella announced their engagement. As much as I loved Damien and his arrogance, Ella truly stole the show for me. She was fierce and truly unforgettable in this second part of the duet.
Together they are unstoppable as they navigate all the twist and turns that they never see coming.

I loved this duet so much! Ms. Romig wrote an incredible story that I devoured. These characters will be staying with me for a long time to come! Highly recommend reading it!

I received a free copy of this book.

Rekindling Desire picks up where Remembering Passion left off, and this story is full steam ahead!
Gabriella seems to find her stride, she grows more confidence and seems to be the foundation that Damien needs.
I enjoyed this more than the 1st book, but still feel like the chemistry is missing. Don't get me wrong, the steamy scenes are HOT but I feel like they're lacking something.
Damien seems a bit more real. It might be the situation he finds himself in, it may be the support of an amazing woman, or it may just be that he is human.
Overall, this was a quick, steamy, interesting story with mentions of characters from series past. I enjoyed it, and as always, appreciate the work the author puts into these worlds/characters (even if they aren't my favorites)!

Last we left Gabriella and Damien, they were working on trying a relationship again. To take things slowly and see how it progressed. But circumstances has forced their hand and sped up their timeline.

Things seem to be for the better but someone doesn’t want them together and is now causing havoc on their relationship and their respective jobs.

Can they overcome this hurdle? You’ll have to one click to find out!

Absolutely love this couple and how each of them make the other better. Two halves to a perfect whole.

Rekindling Desire by Aleatha Romig is book Two in the Sinclair Duet. This concludes the story of Damien and Gabriella. Their story started in the first book 'Remembering Passion'. So you will need to read that book before starting this one. This book took off just where we left them. Gabriella was learning not to loose herself like she fear. Damien and Gabriella are a wonderful couple and I enjoyed their story. I can't wait to see what is next by Ms. Romig.

Rekindling Desire by Aleatha Romig, is the second and last book of the Sinclair Duet, here we pick up the story where we left it in the bomb that Ella dropped in the previous book and now Damien and Ella must do everything necessary to be able to stop the ambitions of his brother Darius and his new wife, while the next step is to get married in order to finish Damien's probationary period and give him complete control as CEO of Sinclair Pharmaceuticals, nothing will be as they imagined. For her part, Gabriella must prove her worth to her boss, but also fight so that they do not discard the coalition project. For Damien to be able once and for all to get rid of those who want to go against him as CEO, all while trying to keep his father's health and his mother's well-being shielded from the entire spectacle this has caused, leaning on his best ally, her sister Dani, and of course Ella. But when alliances begin to be discovered and secrets come to light, nothing will have prepared them for it, now they have to test the strength of their love and the power of their union to be able to achieve peace of mind and the future that they wish for once and for all.
If you thought that in this story everything was going to go more smoothly for this two, then prepare yourself for a bumpy ride, this story is full of unexpected twists and turns, angst, suspense, intrigue, greed, desperation, but also a lot of sensuality, passion and love. I declare myself a complete fan of this duet and I know that it will not be the last I read by this author. Completely, Absolutely and Totally Highly Recommended!

Rekindling Desire de Aleatha Romig, es el segundo y último libro del Dueto Sinclair, aquí retomamos la historia donde la dejamos en la bomba que soltó Ella en el libro anterior y ahora Damien y Ella deben hacer todo lo necesario para poder lograr parar las ambiciones de su hermano Darius y de su nueva esposa, mientras el siguiente paso es casarse para poder terminar el período probatorio de Damien y darle completo control como CEO de Sinclair Pharmaceuticals, pero nada será como lo imaginaban. Por su lado Gabriella debe demostrarle a su jefa su valía, pero también luchar para que no descarten el proyecto de la coalición. Para Damien el poder de una vez por todas deshacerse de quienes quieren ir en su contra como CEO, todo esto mientras trata de mantener la salud de su padre y el bienestar de su madre blindados del todo show que esto ha causado, apoyándose en su mejor aliada, su hermana Dani, y por supuestos de Ella. Pero cuando comiencen a descubrirse alianzas y los secretos salgan a la luz, nada los habrá preparado para ello, ahora les queda probar la fuerza de su amor y el poder de su unión para poder así de una vez por todas conseguir la tranquilidad y el futuro que tanto anhelan.
Si pensabas que en esta historia todo iba a ir más suavemente para este dos, pues prepárate para un viaje movido, esta historia esta llena de giros y vueltas inesperados, angustia, algo de suspenso, intriga, codicia, desesperación, pero también mucha sensualidad, pasión y amor. Me declaro completamente fan de este dueto y se que no será lo último que lea de esta autora. Completamente, Absolutamente y Totalmente Recomendada!
