Flesh and Sin

by K.B. Ladnier

***This is Part Five in the Under the Skin serials with a 20,000+ word count, and is a ménage. Blood: Under the Skin Book One must be read first. Recommended for ages 18+***

My names Claudia Adams. I'm a fairly upbeat vampire with an unhealthy obsession for glitter, and I love to dance at the strip club and bar I work at called The Sassy Sanguine.

I thought my life couldn't get any crazier after an Ancient almost took away my best friend, Lucy, six months ago.

Why did I have to be wrong?

Not only am I dealing with THE vampire bride from hell, but now I'm being reeled into an STF investigation that is bringing back memories I didn't know I was missing.

Memories that could begin to unwind my sanity the closer I get to solving this case.

I don't have nearly enough glitter to pretty up this ugly mess...

Claudia’s story and it has started with a bang! We find out a secret her maker has kept from her and we meet some new characters as well as see Lucy, Sloan, Hollis and Vex!

This is a great series but I highly recommend reading under the skin book one first, i am looking forward to part two of Claudia’s story, I am hooked on this series

Flesh and Sin, part 5 of the Under the Skin Serial spotlights the glitter demon herself, Lucy's best friend, Claudia. Claudia is a beautiful young vampire who dances at The Sassy Sanguine, strip club and bar. After almost losing her best friend six months ago life has mostly returned to normal. Other than the occasional bride to be crisis or dealing with a glitter stealing bi*** Claudia's life is good. Well, except for the constant desire for her maker, the ancient Abraham. But Brahm has never thought of her that way. At least not that she knows. However, there's a lot that Claudia doesn't know or at least doesn't remember. An investigation by STF Agent Diego on a blood and human trafficking ring starts to unlock Claudia's past and the effects could be deadly.

I loved this segment of the serial. Claudia is a handful so of course, her story must be as well, but there is so much more to her than I could have imagined. Poor girl! Still, I think that Brahm underestimated her strength in the beginning and now the past will have to be dealt with. Hopefully, her memories don't destroy her and in the future, she can be empowered by her survival and help with the case. It looks like she's going to have the support of two hot, smitten men to face whatever comes.

While setting up the story, providing Claudia's past unknown history, and setting the stage for the menage this book had plenty of humor. Lucy's love nest, especially Vex and Betty, drunk Claudia, and the bachelorette party had me giggling in public. I love the balance between serious tragic events and ridiculous amusements, not to forget about the sexual tension. Entertaining. I look forward to the next segment. Claudia has tough times ahead, but I need her to make it back to being the rainbow and unicorn girl that she is and get her not-eve-dreamed-about-yet HEA with Brahm and Diego.

I received this book from the author for an honest review.

GAH!! I am so excited to get this installment of the serial. Claudia totally killed me in the beginning parts of the serial so finally getting to see her with her men is going to make my heart happy. The only think about this book I didn’t like…It needed to be LONGER!! I wasn’t ready for the end!!

Claudia is totally in love with her maker Abraham but he doesn’t see her that way or does he? She is uncovering some things about herself and her past that has been kept blocked from her mind. We learn why and what she has blocked plus by whom. I can’t wait for the continuation of this story.

Abraham and Diego are both mesmerized by the glitter queen aka Lucy’s bestie. Both men want more from her then they are ready to admit to themselves but when Claudia starts to remember her past they will be there to help her. Abraham is there because he is her maker but Diego is there because her memory will help his case!

I seriously can not wait for more from this series!!

OMG K.B Ladnier did it again!!! This is part 5 of her Under the Skin serial and this time it is all about Claudia:) If you read the first 4 books in this series you know Claudia as Lucy's glitter loving bestie but there is more to her past than even she knows! This serial was a roller coaster of emotions in just a few chapters. I can't wait to see what happens next and learn more about Claudia's past and her frustrating maker Abraham (who i am not happy with right now) and the Hot as hell STF agent Diego who seems to have fallen under Claudia's spell. I absolutely love the Under the Skin serial but it drives me NUTS that these are not full length because that cliffhanger uuugh seriously K.B i still love you but OMG!!!!

Part 5 of the Under the Skin Serial (Flesh and Sin) begins a couple months after Blood ends, but focuses on Lucy's best friend, the glitter demon! I absolutely loved getting to learn more about Claudia, how she became a vampire and more about her 2 romantic love interests. I thought Brahm was going to be by far my favorite, but the other guy might have made it even haha...totally called who it was going to be by the way :) . This first part in Claudia's story reels you in from the first page and made staying home sick on NYE a little better. Laughed a lot while reading, not surprising with how funny and ridiculous Claudia and Lucy's Love Nest can be. Liked the major storyline in this one, K.B. has done a great job making me crave more.

Can't read till Part 6!

"I looked up into his red-eyes and glowered. "You ruin all my fun. I wasn't going to stake her. I was just going to claw her skin off in every area glitter was applied. Repo-ing it basically." I shrugged my shoulders innocently"

This might be my favorite K.B. serial yet. Claude's story is just getting started. Diego is fireeee alongside Brahm, I am curious if there are going to be anymore gentleman added into the harem. I'm not so secretly hoping for a third.

Under the Skin continues some of the story from the previous books, they are trying to shut down a ring of sexual trafficking of sorts and Claude has valuable insight but only if she can overcome some pretty big obstacles.

[Book Addict · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is absolutely fantastic! It sucks the reader in from page one and keeps them involved throughout the book. Even though it is only a short book it is jam packed full of emotional and intriguing moments between Claudia and Brahm and brings to light some of Claudia’s past! Throw in a bit of Diego and there is one powerful group! I also really enjoyed reading about Lucy and her three guys, there were some really funny moments there with the wedding dress and Vex!! What a fantastic continuation of these stories and I love Claudia being in the spotlight. Can’t wait to read more in this series, highly recommended!!

[Karen Holliday · Rating 5 out of 5]

Just as good as the previous 4 parts, part 5 is shifting to tell Claudia’s story. Well written and edited. I love how carefree and free spirited Claude is, she is well complimented by Brham and his more old fashioned personality, looking forward to how Diego will fit into the mix. I appreciate the length of the books in this series, I know some complain saying “oh they are so short” well yeah their a serial so short is the name of the game. I’d rather have a part of the book every couple of months instead of waiting a year between books. This series a is a favorite!

[Whitney Wright · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved this book! Being a serial I didn't feel like it was too short and was still full of amazing details without feeling rushed. It was full of everything that I look for in a book, some sexual tension, a problem that needs solving, sexy men, you name it and this author has it. I love Claudia's strong personality and her stubbornness. Her character is far from the submissive and passive women that can get annoying. Claudia is definitely going to be giving these boys a run for their money and I can't wait to read more!

KB has not let me down in this next instalment if the Under The Skin serials. We are now moving into Claudias story and things are heated right from the off. So happy to be learning more of Claudia & Brahms back story and equally happy Diego is back after his introduction in Lucy's story. As always we are left with a cliffhanger that lives up to KBs talent of leaving em wanting more! Bring it on KB!

[Heather Endsley · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is part 5 in the under the skin series. This is Lucy's best friend Claudia's story. Claudia has an obsession with glitter and with Brahm, but who wouldn't? This is an emotional rollercoaster for Claudia, don't worry, it is for you the reader too. Brahms been hiding a big secret from Claudia and she's starting to remember. Can she forgive him when it all comes flooding back? will she end up With Brahm or Diego...preferably both. not so patiently waiting for the 6th installment.

[Brittany VanLanen · Rating 5 out of 5]

We pick up where we left off with Lucy and the gang in the Blood and Lust serial but we shift focus to Lucy’s best friend Claudia and her Maker Abraham. Remember Diego? Yeah he makes an appearance as well! This one is just as good as Blood and Lust. I love how feisty Claudia is. I wouldn’t be surprised if the Bull makes an appearance as well!! I’m in love and I can’t wait to see how Claudia’s story unfolds.

[Kirsten Yates · Rating 5 out of 5]

I deeply enjoyed reading this book and finding out more about Claudia's history! It was nice seeing more into her relationship with Abraham. From the first four books I assumed that he simply wasn't into Claudia in a more romantic way and I was happily surprised! I am on pins and needles waiting to find out if she can handle the memories and I simply cannot wait to find out what happens next for her, Abraham, and Diego!

[Missy Brown · Rating 5 out of 5]

Flesh and Sin is about Claudia, Lucy’s bestie. We find out that there is more to her past that even she knew. Of course with a typical KB Ladnier book we get hooked from the short chapters we get. She has a knack of capturing our interest and leaves us craving more. Espically with those cliffhangers. I would definitely recommend this series, but for the full enjoyment I would read these in order.

[Melissa · Rating 5 out of 5]

I did not read the other parts yet but this book was great, even without the other ones you could tie everything in together and understand what was going on. K.B. Ladnier is a great author and I have loved every book I have read from her and this one hooks you quickly. This one focuses on Claudia, Lucy's friend from the previous parts. I love how much detail was in this book, even though it was a quick read.

[Jenee Robinson · Rating 5 out of 5]

I can say this is the first book I've read with a vampire stripper in it, lol. That being said it's tastefully done. It's in the point of view of three people, Claudia, vampire stripper, Abraham, her maker and boss and Diego, a Supernatural Task Force office. Diego is working a case and his leads run dry, Claudia may be to help but Bram blocked her memory. This also tells of her best friend Lucy marrying three men. Interesting read for sure.

[Brittney · Rating 5 out of 5]

Flesh and Sin: Under the Skin Serial Part Five is the first in the story of the Glitter Queen herself. Plenty of laughs as well as serious moments make for a well rounded start. I struggled to decide if I was with Abraham or if I was pissed off at him. I'm excited to see what happens in the next installment of Claudia's story and how the relationships play out.

[Samantha · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great new part of the serial. The one we had been hoping for. Maybe a bit less glitter. I loved how different Claudia was to Lucy. It was pretty amazing seeing her maker, and her potential love interests. And I say potential as we have all seen frozen... I'm still broken about hans. So all interests are potential until "the end"
Can't wait for the next one

[Samantha · Rating 5 out of 5]

Claudia stole my heart in Under the Skin book 1 as Lucy’s bff. I really relate to her love of glitter. 😍 I fell in love with Brahm in book 1 also, just from the way Lucy talked about how much he loved Claudia. Diego is sexy in a bad boy way and everything Brahm isn’t. They are the perfect balance to each other and for Claudia. I can’t wait to read part 2 of this mini-series! 😍

[Andrea · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a fantastic book!! Claudia has been one of my favorites since we first met her in the first book of the Under the Skin series and I couldn't be happier to begin her story! We learned her heartbreaking past and what was done to get her through it...and we gain a much better understanding of the relationship between her and Abraham! Can't wait for part 2!

[Ashleigh · Rating 5 out of 5]

If you have been dying for some Claudia/Bram action since this series started like me, then this is the book for you! I am so excited to be learning more about their history and in true Claudia fashion this read is fabulous with a dash of glitter! I cannot wait to see how this plays out. You don't want to miss this.

[Brooke Japhet · Rating 5 out of 5]

Flesh and Sin was yet another amazing serial book by K.B. Ladner! It starts out fast, sucking you in and it keeps you intrigued with steamy scenes and scandals you didn’t even think to see coming. With more vampire and shifter action coming your way, this serial is a wonderful continuation of the first book: Blood!

[Anna · Rating 5 out of 5]

This set of serials is about Claudia. I won't tell you too much but Claudia has a very dark past, she just doesn't know how bad things had gotten. She's been in love with Brahm forever but she soon learns he's been keeping secrets from her. When the past is uncovered, things start to unravel for Claudia.
This was a great start to this set and I loved every second of it.

[Kayla · Rating 4 out of 5]

I loved the continuation of this but with Claudia as the main character. I absolutely loved Claudia in parts 1-4. Definitely recommend! We get to see some of the main characters from parts 1-4 as well.

This book had me on a roller coaster of emotions. From claudia's past and the secret her maker has kept from her

This is a serial! But a good one. I also recommend reading parts 1-4 first

[Amanda Cash · Rating 5 out of 5]

Love Claudia!

I am so happy Claudia gets a book of her own. I just knew there was more to the always cheerful glitter demon and K.B. did not disappoint.

This is the first serial of Claudia's story, notice I said serial which means it ends in a cliffhanger, and I can't wait for the next release!

[Dezi · Rating 5 out of 5]

Part 5 of her Flesh and Sin series and it's amazing! This time it's Claudia's story, and I have to say I love Claudia's personality. Great start to her story, we get to see more of Brahm her maker and their relationship as well as find out more about a past she didn't know she was missing. Can't wait for the next one!

[rose houston · Rating 4 out of 5]

Flesh and sin is the continuation of the under the skin serial but with Claudia as the main character. We find out more about Claudia’s past and the secrets her maker has kept from her. We meet som new characters as well as seeing favourites from first part.
there’s serials are good, quick reads. I recommend reading book one of under the skin before this.

[Julie Selby · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another great edition to the rest of the serials. In this one however we go more in depth with Lucy's best friend. We finally learn about this crazy vampire and her glitter (and she loves the stuff). If you've gotten this far into the serials then you wont want to miss this addition. I always recommend this author and suggest you read any and everything by her.

[Andi · Rating 5 out of 5]

I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Awesome story. I can't wait for more. Claudia is badass and has been through something horrible that is being blocked from her memory. She needs to recover those memories, but it might break her in return.

[Jev Murry · Rating 5 out of 5]

Omg!!! I can't wait for the next part!!! This has been an emotional roller coaster!!!! Claudia is amazing and her maker has been keeping something very important from her. I can't wait to see what happens next!!!!
