Sinful Desires #1
Falling For Sin
To him I’m just his little sister’s best friend. To me, he’s the guy I can never have.
I’ve spent countless nights fantasizing about him, wondering what it would feel like to touch him—to be touched by him. Just the thought of being with Sin, allowing him to corrupt my body any way he wanted was enough to tip me over the edge.
But he’s the forbidden fruit I’ll never be allowed to take a bite of. Even though I’d risk a whole lot just for a tiny taste, I can’t risk my lifelong friendship with Maya.
I know how to keep my feelings to myself. I’ve been doing it for years. Only problem is, Sin is back from college and I’ve seen the way he stares at me. It’s different, feral—like I’m the craving he needs to sate.
And the thing is…if Sin wants me, Sin will have me.

First of all, I began reading this on one of the free platforms, similar to wattpad. That's where it should have stayed. In no way should this have ever been published into a book.
Might contain "spoilers"
1. The grammar is still way off. I can't count the amount of mistakes I remember in the book, simple things like not making a word plural by adding an "s", or using the word FORM when the author clearly meant FROM. It's just sloppy and lazy.
2. The issues with the characters. Wow. Apparently Blair and Maya are 18, still in school, high school not college, yet...THEY NEVER GO TO CLASS! They go to class at the very end which is ONLY to set up for another book (which I'll get to later) therefore yes, this book is technically a cliffhanger. All you ever see them doing is going to parties or watching movies. They're very boring characters who don't do a lot.
I think it said Sin was 6 or 8 years older than Blair, just out of college? However, he does nothing either (UNTIL THE VERY END to set up a second book).
I want to say both Sin and Blair are very one dimensional characters, but I feel that even that is giving them a lot of credit. In no way is there any connection between the two of them other than sex, and that got so boring after awhile. That's really all they did. At one point they go paintballing, but again, nothing happens. It's just a set up for a "unique" sex scene, which isn't all that good. Same goes for when you have 18 year old girls camping in tents in the backyard. They aren't scenes that flow for any other reason than the author wanted them to have sex all over the place, but since none of the characters actually did anything in their lives, that really wasn't an option.
3. The "ending". Blair breaks up with Sin for a dumb reason. Her mother is sick, which I feel the author just threw this in at the end because they had no drama or climax to this boring story. Blair insists that she can't be in a relationship because she has to take care of her mother, but yet...she then decides to...wait for it...GO TO CLASS. (In fairness maybe they went to class between 60% and 97% but I didn't care enough, so I skipped that part.)
I won't spoil the ending, but it's a ridiculous setup that was never mentioned throughout the book until the very last page as a means to try to sell another one of these things in the future.
If you like boring and weird sex scenes with no emotion and bad grammar, give it a read. With all the books out there, I can't believe I tried to make it through this one. My fault, there were no reviews at the time; however, I'm convinced that if this gets anything beyond 2* it's because they received a free copy of the book, and usually those people leave pretty good reviews with little to no substance.

Okay so i liked it and it kinda turned me on at some points, but like the author totally covered up for the fact that Sin and Blaire barely talk to each other by Blaire saying "Sin didn't talk much, so we ate dinner in silence" lmao. this book has a lot of potential, i feel the author was just being lazy by not having them have good conversation with another, because you shouldn't just be falling in love with someone based on the sex alone.
also the reason blaire broke up with sin was a little weird; I mean it is very selfless of Blaire and shows that she's a good person, but i do get why one reviewer was like the author just put that in there so the book would have a climax. I found this book on Kink(??) something.
also these girls never seemed to attend class...like wtf and seemed to have endless time to hangout. that's not realistic at all lmao.
also I would like to see Sin as her teacher! where's book 2??

★ Best-friend’s brother is back to stay ★
—>>> Review Rating: 3.0 out of 5 stars - Sin has now finished college and is back home, noticing that his little sister’s best friend Blaire is now all grown up. They begin a relationship, trying to keep it under wraps until a circumstance occurs through which their true feelings for each other come to light. Their story will continue with a cliffhanger ending to this first book which puts them back into each other’s orbit once again.

Out of a Funk
This was far from what I would normally read, but sometimes you need to read a bit of trash to get you out of a funk and I think it’s fair to say this book has done that for me.
Now to get back to books that have characters, plots and grammar that work together cohesively to give us great stories.

Falling for Sin
I originally read this story on Inkitt. It's slightly changed a bit since being released here. It's a quick read and a good story.

I honestly liked Falling for Sin, even though it’s not the typical kind of romance I gravitate toward. I usually prefer sweeter love stories, but this one pulled me in more than I expected. The chemistry between the main characters was cute in its own way—there was an undeniable spark between them that carried the story.
One thing that really stood out to me was how important Blair was to Sin. You could really feel it, especially during the emotional moments surrounding her mom’s cancer diagnosis. Those scenes added depth to Sin’s character and showed a softer side that I appreciated.
That said, the playful meanness between the characters wasn’t totally my cup of tea. Their banter sometimes felt a little harsh, but it didn’t overpower the connection they clearly had. The emotional undercurrent kept things grounded.

Good so far
There were points in this book I cringed a bit at what the characters were doing. When I was a senior in high school I didn’t play spin the bottle, that was definitely a middle
School thing. There were inconsistencies, but they were small. Overall, I liked this book and I’ll be reading the next one.

U don’t understand how much I luv this series
June 4, 2020
DO NOT READ IT... But do read the 2nd and 3rd book of the series, they are good. The 3rd one especially so..
My only question is Why are the 2nd and 3rd book not available for updating??? I just completed the 3rd book, and Oh my Gosh, it was awesome, especially the end! I absolutely adored Mathias, Angel, Jessica and Jaxon!! The sexual scenes were sick.. Sorry, just not my type. I'm giving it 3 stars only because I read the 2nd book first and loved the characters. Else I would've given it a 1 star.

It’s a great book, I just think the ending was a bit too abrupt and way too fast compared to what happened in the rest of the book.

I’m not sure how many books this author has written but this is the first one I’ve read by her and she’s written a really good book. I enjoyed the story, it’s a best friend’s sister, known each other for ages then they grow up and the dynamics start to change. The characters a very likable. It’s a short read only taking me just over an hour to read cover to cover. What I’m surprised about is how well the author did to present such a wonderful plot with well-rounded characters in such a short story. This is a very well-written entertaining story that was interesting and enjoyable to read.

This book was okay and does end with a dreaded cliffhanger. It is a fairly quick read that is about an a high school girl and her best friend's older brother. The age gap is six years and the story indicates she is 18 so not bad. It is a very interesting and steamy story! I just wished the story was better developed and written. The writing is very immature as though I high student did write it.
August 21, 2019
So first off, I loved this. Sin and Blair are both great characters. The story starts off cute and gets better, then at the end BOOM, followed by a CLIFFHANGER. If there isn’t a continuation to this...I’m going to die.

If like me you enjoy a good best friend's brother romance then you will really enjoy Blair and Sin's story it is a great little read about an hour and is the first book in the series. It is the first I have read from LaGloria and it was a super read I really enjoyed it and cannot wait for more.

She had always liked him and his sister knew it. I think she did it on purpose to have them see each other on accident. Also to see if they would do something about their attraction to each other.

This was rather saucy. It had a good plot line to it. The characters were likeable and it worked well.
