Tangled In Sin

by Dani Lee May

When Beth escapes her best friend's suffocating love nest for a breather, she doesn't expect to find solace in Matthew—Seb's loyal bodyguard and the only man who might understand what it's like to live in the shadows of reformed monsters. Their growing attraction is undeniable, but neither of them is looking for complications. Not when the past has a habit of coming back to collect its debts.

In the shadows of London's underworld, where loyalty is currency and violence is language, four people begin to realise that love isn't about redemption—it's about finding someone willing to become a monster alongside you.

Spoiler Free Review!!, I was very fortunate enough to be able to read Dani-Lee’s Book as an ARC of Tangled In Sin, and omg it did not disappoint and was beautifully written! I went through a variety of emotions when it came to this book, Book 2 follows along the MMC - Mathew and the FMC - Beth,

Firstly they both had hidden secrets that they have hid with very good reason, But this book takes you a rollercoaster of emotions from the very first page where it doesn’t just pull you in… it grabs you with a firm chock hold… with every twists and turns and plot twists. I can hands down say I didn’t see coming even when I tried to guess whilst reading! Even with it being a slightly dark in places (my own view everyone different so please check the Trigger Warnings!) it had a lot of humour from the Characters throughout the book which broke it up and I absolutely loved that!

Beth’s and Mathews growing attraction is very undeniable, but I love the fieryness of Beth and what she stands for, and without spoiling I loved her courage and determination of taking back the control! And well… Mathew he’s such a dark horse!

But what I can say is in the shadows of London's underworld, where loyalty is currency and violence is language, But four people soon began to realise that love isn't about redemption, it's about finding someone willing to become a monster alongside you which is so true throughout this book!

Note to Author… please Hurry up with Book 3 I’m needing to read it now, now that I’ve finished Book 2!😬 Thank you so much in giving me this opportunity to read your ARC I look forward to book 3!🖤

Omg omg omg received the arc on 31st and I was feral for it !!!!!
C
Book 1 is your introduction to the main stage of seb and saph and the rollercoaster of psychology that hits with the twists and turns.
Now during all this we have our supporting cast. Edgy opinionated round peg in a square hole bestie Beth & Matthew the built like a brick shit house has a high body count and that’s not the count between the sheets!. Right hand man for everything Matthew. Fallen together or pushed?
Time will tell
This book does contain violence and d-I-s-m-e-mberment.
Beth experiences an unforgivable event putting Matthew in drivers seat for revenge ……
Book two absolutely packs a punch in this trilogy.
The author has really thought out and handled subjects no one should go through with care tactically and with respect.
Absolute 5 star with chef kiss spice.
This indie author is delivering perfection
Bring on book 3!

Tangled in Sin delivers exactly what fans of dark romance crave: danger, desire, palpable sexual tension that hits right from the beginning. It’s a fabulous novel that picks up where the first book in the trilogy, Trained in Sin, left off. Whilst the beloved Saphy and Seb feature heavily, the main focus is the deliciously forbidden dynamic between the crime boss’s bodyguard and the best friend and oh is it electric! It’s the kind of chemistry that feels both inevitable and impossible at the same time.

The author balances heat with heart, giving the characters enough depth that you care about them even while the plot keeps things sharp, fast, and addictive.

It’s the kind of book you pick up for the spice and stay for the emotional pull, the banter, and the slow unravelling of two people who absolutely should not want each other, but do.

A fun, steamy, high‑stakes read that romance lovers will devour in just a single sitting.

Okay so this is a SPOILER FREE review as I have arc read this and it isn’t out yet.

What an absolute honour it is to have been given the opportunity to arc read this. I loved book 1 (trained in sin) and book 2 was also nothing short of fantastic! The writing of Beth and Matthew, our two main characters is just so beautifully written and so well thought out.

If you loved Sebastian, then you will absolutely adore Matthew. And Beth? Well, I WANT TO BE HER! 😂 I love her character so much, she takes no s*** and I am here for it honestly 😂

I so can not wait for book 3!

Danni-Lee, thank you for this opportunity and I need you to know how amazingly talented you are! You are going to go far in your writing career and I can not wait to see you succeed and cheer you on! Well done, and congratulations 🥰

I received an ARC of Tangled in Sin, and wow—this book completely pulled me in. Beth and Matthew’s story is dark, intense, and packed with secrets that kept me turning pages nonstop. The plot twists genuinely caught me off guard, and I loved how nothing felt predictable.

What really stood out to me was the writing. It’s so well done that you can feel the emotional turmoil of the characters—their pain, their desires, and the internal battles they’re fighting. The chemistry between Beth and Matthew is undeniable, and the spice? Absolutely delivers.

If you’re a fan of dark romance with emotional depth, shocking twists, and high heat, this is one you don’t want to miss. Highly recommend giving it a read can’t wait for book 3

Thank you to Dani-Lee May for giving me the opportunity to read this as an arc. Where do I start… just Woah! I loved this book so so much! I was totally obsessed with the first book (trained in sin) and I didn’t think it could get much better! However… tangled in sin is just as incredible! Easy 5 star read! The characters are relatable and I was invested right from the start! All I can say is you won’t regret reading this and you will be desperate for a book 3 because I certainly am!
