Club Sin # 6
Club Sin # 6
By: Stacey Kennedy
Releasing July 7, 2015
Club Sin comes alive once again in this
decadent new romance from USA Today bestselling author Stacey Kennedy, perfect
for fans of Fifty Shades of Grey.
A
dedicated cop, Sawyer Quinn blows off steam by immersing himself in his role as
a Master at the hottest club in Las Vegas. But when Sawyer goes after the perp
who brutally beat his sister, he teams up with Chloe Nash, a sexy private
investigator who awakens a sweet new need: to keep her to himself, away from
the dungeon of Club Sin. Chloe is beautiful, smart, and too innocent for the
BDSM lifestyle. Sawyer’s never wanted a woman like this before. Is her love
worth swearing off the one thing that keeps him sane?
There’s
something different about Sawyer: a commanding strength that pulls Chloe into a
vortex of heady desire. But when she learns about his double life as a Dom,
she’s shocked—and afraid she could never complete him. Then he saves her life,
and just like that, Chloe knows she will be able to give him anything he
desires. She is his—wherever and however he wants to take her.
Stacey
Kennedy is the USA
Today bestselling author of the Club Sin series. Growing up, Stacey’s mind
wandered the path less traveled, and that path most often led to love. She has
always broken rules and she continues to feed off emotion—always staying true
to her heart. Those traits are now the bones of her stories. She lives in
southwestern Ontario with her husband, who puts any of the heroes in her books
to shame, and their two young children. If she’s not on Mom duty or plugging
away at a new story, you’ll find Stacey camping in the summer, hibernating in
the winter, and obsessing over Penny Dreadful, Game of Thrones,
and Sons of Anarchy.
An Excerpt from
Commanded:
Club Sin Book 6
“Come here,” she said. “I found
something.”
“Whatcha got?” Sawyer sat next to her,
draping his arm across the back of the couch.
He smelled like nature, Chloe
thought—woodsy and fresh. And so very masculine. She cleared her throat. “I
take it this is Travis’s email address.” Sawyer’s thick, strong leg pressed
against her slender one, carrying warmth into her veins. “It’s not a great
lead, but at least it’s something.”
“At this point, anything is good.”
Sawyer pulled out his phone and typed the email address into his notepad. “I
don’t suppose you know how to break passwords?”
“I’m not that good.”
She smiled, shutting the laptop. “But I do have a friend who might be able to
help.”
One brow rose. “A friend?”
“His name is Shane. He’s a computer whiz
I met in high school.” She rose, holding the laptop to her chest. “He does some
freelance work for Porter on difficult cases.”
Sawyer hesitated, brows pinched
together. “The force has its own computer team. I should take it there.”
“Yes, I’m sure that makes sense in your
cop brain. But what if we have to dig deeper than just breaking a password?
Will your people on the force do that, or do they have to get warrants and
such? Using my guy saves time.”
His hesitation lasted a little longer this
time, the conflict clear on his face. He finally bobbed his head, resolved.
“We’ll do this your way for now.” He lifted his hand to her arm in an
appreciative touch, but the feel of his strong fingers on her bare skin was
like an arrow of desire hitting her straight between her thighs.
He’d never touched her before. That, she
now realized, had been a good thing. Under the heat of his fingers, her mind
went blank. Her only focus was the burning of his touch. Every inch of her
hummed in a blaze of need, clenching her sex. She needed space from all his
intensity, but she couldn’t find the strength to force her feet to move.
She dared herself to look up into his
shadowy eyes. His curious gaze moved from his hand to her face; then he shifted
his fingers toward her chin. Chloe melted as she became aware of his hands on
her face—the soft, tempting strokes of his fingers as they caressed her jaw.
He tipped her head up, studying her in a
way no man had ever done. He really looked at her—straight into the center
of her being. As if, for the first time in her life, she was being seen. Her
soul felt naked under his gaze. The slight jump in her heart rate matched the
nerves rattling through her.
All the same, her mind recoiled. She
hastily reminded herself she’d just broken up with Josh. “Please don’t” was all
she could manage.
The corner of Sawyer’s mouth curved.
“I’m not stopping you from backing away from me. If you don’t want me close,
move.”
He clearly didn’t intend to step
away—she could tell from his knowing smile. She couldn’t, either. My God,
she wanted him. Right now. Right in his little sister’s condo. But that little
voice in her head, though it was growing weaker by the moment, reminded her
that strong and smart women didn’t jump into bed with someone the day after
breaking up with a long-term boyfriend.
The satisfaction in his eyes deepened
when she remained still. “There’s something here,” he murmured in a voice as
soft as silk. “I feel it. You feel it. Why ignore it?”
“I broke up with Josh yesterday,” she reminded
him.
“So
you keep telling me.” Frustration appeared in his eyes. “Since you seem so
determined to keep talking about your ex, then tell me, why did you break up?”
Her cheeks burned with embarrassment.
There was no way she was going to tell him.
His eyes began to twinkle. “Because of
me? Because of this peculiar-but-ever-so-interesting connection between us?”
She swallowed the lump in her throat.
“I’ve never . . .”
“Felt something so intense? So
unexplainable? So tempting? Neither have I.”
Then he kissed her, and she couldn’t
remember the reason she didn’t want him kissing her. She only wanted him
kissing her.
He moved his hands to caress her
shoulders, holding her in place as his tongue invaded her mouth. He pressed his
body against hers, as if daring her not to realize how incredible it felt to
have his body right up against hers. He set every inch of her on fire.
Jesus. H. Christ, did she realize it.
And she wanted more.
Many minutes later, when he stopped
kissing her, they were both breathless. His eyes were so full of lust it was
mind-blowing. He dragged his thumb across her bottom lip. “I’ve waited
thirty-three years to find this sort of real connection that defies logic. I
won’t ignore that, Chloe. I can’t.” She couldn’t look away from his mouth. God, she
wanted more of that. “Don’t ask me to,” he added, “because you won’t like my
answer.”
She forced her eyes up to his. “I’ve
been single for a day,” she reminded him again. Dammit! “I
can’t be with you, no matter how fun that sounds. It wouldn’t feel right. I
need time.”
“Fair argument. But I don’t care how
long you’ve been single. I only care that you are.” As if he hadn’t rocked her
fucking world, he left her standing there as he walked toward the door. “Come
on. We need to get moving.”
She blinked, pulling her mind from the
gutter and placing it back on the investigation. Her emotions were in a whirl;
if there were such a thing as a female case of blue balls, she had ’em.

Review
Can Chloe fit into Sawyer’s life without joining a BDSM club or will she change him as she fears? Will Sawyer convince Chloe that she is enough for him and that he does not need the club anymore, only the friends that he met there?
This is book six in the Club Sin series and is a standalone novel that I am giving a rating of 5. The plot is quite different from what I expected. It was still very engaging with characters that were more like friends after the book was over. Still has hot and super sexy love scenes like the other novels, it was unusual in that the leading man did not want to share anything about his unique and innocent Chloe with the club scene at all. Chloe worries that she is changing Sawyer and he will be unhappy without his kink and his club.
This novel has the added twist of violence through Sawyers sister’s ex-boyfriend beating her up and Chloe and Sawyer hunting for him after the police are unable to find him. It is not romantic violence in any way shape or form. It is more in the shape of police crime or detective book type violence that may be expected as Chloe is a Private Investigator and Sawyer works for Las Vegas SWAT. I think the book works well all around. It covers all the bases for a good BDSM novel with the added above twists. It was another one that had me from Chapter One and would not let me go until I was finished. I am anxiously awaiting the next novel; which I know is Mine: A Club Sin Novel (Club Sin series Book 7). I am excited because a publisher told me it is about Presley and Dmitri…
Is this novel for you? You believe that a novel with BDSM can be romantic. You like plenty of adult kink in your novel. You like that a sub can take care of herself if she needs to at times. You like that Sawyer does not want others to see his prized sub or share any of her experiences with a club. Some violence is alright in you romance, even if it is the wrong kind and not the nice BDSM kind. Then this is the book for you.
