Another great addition to the series this is Tiffany and Sin’s story it’s another age-gap romance Sin is thirty-eight to Tiffany’s twenty-three. Here we also get to learn what made Sin leave his post as guard the end result his exile to Ohio. Nobody knew the real reason as Tiff and Sins relationship was kept on the down-low they’ve been meeting up in secret at Sin’s house and hooking up for weeks. As Tiff’s world implodes into chaos Sin just wants to be back home with his girl he’s finally ready to claim her and shout out to his brothers that she's his. He wants to build a future together he just needs her on board.
This one was quite hard-hitting in places and moved me to tears. I adored Sin he’s so protective and isn’t afraid to show how much he cares. He is used to keeping secrets he has a past he’s not proud of and definitely likes to hold his cards close to his chest with Tiff he’s learning to be more transparent. She’s also not one for sharing so they are both on a learning curve regarding communication.
Tiffany is a spit-fire she has a mouth on her and is not afraid to use it she usually knows exactly what she wants. But underneath all that sass and attitude there’s a quiet vulnerability that only Sin gets to see and with him, she can finally just be herself and she likes that about him.
I’m really enjoying this series it has just the right balance of romance action and drama it has darkness as well as light and is an easy page-turner. If you like MC series that pull you in and invest you in the characters and that are raw and gritty but with so much heart then this is the series for you.
I really really hope Keira does not take back Storm because he is truly disgusting and I don’t think anything can redeem him after how many women his been with even after cheating the first time! She needs a new man.

𝗦𝗶𝗻 by Serena Akeroyd is the 3rd installment in the 𝗗𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀' 𝗠𝗖 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀. This is not stand-alone. 𝗗𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝘁𝘆 𝗦𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀' 𝗠𝗖 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 is a continuation of an 11-part series where each novel has its own HEA for the hero and heroine involved. The beauty of this series is the interconnection between two worlds: Mafia and MC.
This is such an interesting and complex series with a lot of moving parts. Once I started with 𝗙𝗶𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 and 𝗡𝘆𝘅, the 𝟱 𝗽𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁𝘀 and the 𝐒𝐚𝐭𝐚𝐧’𝐬 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐬 worlds are my new favorite obsession. Reading this series in order is so much fun. Serena’s writing style resonates with me. You feel as though you’re watching it all unfold in front of your eyes.
In Sin, we get Tiffany and Sin's story. Sin is content with living his wild ways as a member of the Satan’s Sinner MC. When he sees Tiffany, he is immediately intrigued by her, even though he thinks she is a typical rich snob. Tiffany is best friends with Lily from book 2, Link.
Tiffany knows that she is blessed to be well off and accepts that she’s spoiled. She doesn’t act entitled to anything and has an amazing personality. With a barely there father and a gold digger as a mother, she’s turned out quite levelheaded. I loved her character and she and Sin had hot chemistry. Tiffany is strong and uses her skills to help when needed. I enjoyed watching their relationship progress. Tiffany is in her early twenties and has to find herself. Sin, being older, is so accepting of her it’s truly a joy to read.
I adored the portions with Nyx and Giulia as their love has grown tremendously. They’ve turned into the ideal power couple for the MC. Their relationship of acceptance and true love is what any Satan’s Sinner member could hope for, they just don’t know they want it yet
Their journey towards their HEA is bumpy. This MC interconnected series with the men of 5 Points keeps getting better. Expect more plot twists and satisfying moments ahead.
This multi-POV novel is truly enjoyable and I look forward to jumping right ahead to Steel’s book. Finally, we get Steel and Stone next!
Here I thought I'd hate this book because of how quick it started... ha ha. I was fooled. I LOVED IT! So much emotion. Angst. I cried a couple of times.
I am so obsessed with Serena Akeroyd's Satan's Sinners MC series. Sin and Tiffany were so sexy and the way they felt for one another was so swoonworthy. While their romance was a standalone, there is a continuing story arc evolving throughout this series that must be read in order. Overall I enjoyed Sin and Tiffany's passion, connection and the love they had for one another. This was another win for Akeroyd!
What I loved more than anything was the fact that there was more to Tiffany than what we saw in book two. She was strong and determined and her will to survive and persevere was admirable. Furthermore, seeing Sin fall for her was just incredible. She was it for him and he didn't care who knew! I loved seeing all of the MC Brothers and can't wait for more stories about them in the future. 4 stars! ~Ratula
When Serena Akeroyd puts out an MC romance, I know it’s a one-click for me. She has such a distinct style and voice to her MC stories, truly a one of a kind approach to the MC world. The Satan’s Sinners series has a perfect balance of world building and character development, action and heart- they are page turning thrillers and emotional romances all at once. And Sin more than lives up to my expectations for a Serena MC story.
In this third installment, the story focuses on our title character, Sin, and his budding connection with young Tiffany. We get a glimpse into how their connection was formed- in such an incredibly memorable, humorous, and engaging opener, and we see them confront personal, club, and societal obstacles as they navigate a deepening commitment and need for one another.
I loved these characters. I love how the women in this series are so badass- they have been hurt (or get hurt), and they are willing to be vulnerable- but they are also fighters- strong, unapologetic, self-possessed. And the men, UGH, I love how Serena lets them be emotional, lets them be caring and committed and sensitive, all while having them be the rough and dangerous bikers that we know they are. And, I simply loved this couple- from the first meeting you feel the magnetic draw between them, like two incomplete souls finding their missing piece. They click so seamlessly- the relationship feels explosive and quiet all at once. And, I loved how open both of them were with each other and their feelings. There is TONS of drama in this book- but the drama between them is minimal, low angst. I always love how Serena lets her couples marinate- we don’t have to wait to see how it will be- she lets them find each other early and gives the plot space to explore the relationship while they are together- which is way more interesting to witness.
Serena certainly knows how to bring what we know and love about MC romance -the dark, gritty MC violent danger with the soul searing, frenetic romantic chemistry. But what I love about her stories are the narrative choices that make her MC stories feel more unique and original:
1) First, while each book focuses disproportionately on a particular couple's journey- these books remain true ENSEMBLE tales, with at least 30% of the story (if not more) weaving in POVs from other characters- both those who have already had their story the focus of a book, and those who have yet to star. The series is, in fact, about the Sinners- and Serena is telling multiple sub romance stories in parallel to the larger narrative that is threaded through every book- the MC’s continued role in taking down some shady business in their community. I’d recommend reading all the books in order-you could read it as a standalone, but you’d miss out on the magic of this narrative choice- because you won’t know the individual characters or the stories that are being continued. Without being steeped in the whole series, this might feel like it is a deviation from the romance, when in actuality it is progressing the series as a whole. Such an interesting narrative approach!
2)Secondly, I love how Serena focuses mostly on the intimate moments to drive the story. And, no, I don’t just mean sexy times- although we have plenty of those-SA know brings all the heat. Rather, it is the sweet one-on-one interactions- the daily conversations, the flirty phone calls or texts, the bedroom convos- the simple moments when our characters not only tell us more about who they are individually but tell us about who they are as a couple. Don’t worry- we have tons of MC action and danger, but Serena invests the words where there is the most meaning- the steady, yet passionate development of emotional connection between her leads. The relationships feel stable, grounded, intimate, and authentic because of this writing choice-and this makes her characters more richly developed- more layered and complex.
As always, this book has many twists and turns- contrasting moments of light and levity with darkness and pain. This book, in particular, had some unexpected but powerful moments that had me flying through pages - both in the external action and in the internal relationships, including some very devastating moments. The action kept me on my toes, but the emotional arcs kept me deeply invested. I can’t wait to revisit all the couples again as well as explore the teasers for book 4 Serena careful wove into our final chapters. Sin and Tiff get all the love from me!
This book should definitely be read after the first two because there are things that would not make sense if you haven't. And even having read the first two I had no idea that this was going on in the background.
Tiffany is Lily's best friend and while they run in the same circles they have totally different lives. Tiffany has a life she thought she knew until the world tilts on its access and truths come out that she never expected. But her story starts back ways, to before the Lancaster's, to when she decided to take a trip to the wild-side and met a sinner called Sin.
Tiffany is feisty, smart-mouthed, and is going to make Sin work for it. And work for it he does. There is something about this girl from the other side of town that has Sin all confused inside. He wants to take her on dates and just "be" with her. These two characters can sass with the best of them. Their chemistry is combustible and they form this relationship that is just perfect. Even though it is secret and then there is a time they apart, they are perfect for each other.
There is again a lot of other things going on this story. You find out important pieces of information you didn't get before to fill in all the gaps. I had wished that Tiffany was a bit more confident in what she brings to the table but she is not quite there yet. Sin on the other hand is bound and determined to get back to her by any means necessary so he can show her that she is enough.
Their tragedy brings out more complications for the club and again I am lucky to get to just move onto the next book.
This was a kick ass MC story. I was intrigued by Sin from his moments in Nyx’s book. This story had plenty of emotional moments and enough gritty action to keep me hooked. Can’t wait for the next story.
I love this author, but this series is absolutely painful to read. It is so discordant and chaotic, bouncing from POV to POV. Supposedly, this was Sin and Tiff’s book, but I’d estimate maybe 50% of the book was actually about them. And holy cow, we’re they boring to read about. Case in point, as I’m typing this review, I literally had to pause to even remember their names.
In this book we see POVs from Tiffany, Sin, Nyx, Giulia, Ghost, Link, Rex, Lily, Storm, Lodestar, Maverick…honestly, I think there’s more I’m forgetting. You get whiplash from how fast the POV changes. Personally, I’m not against reading books with multiple POVs, but I don’t think this is how you do it. Typically, books are much longer (more like sagas), where an alternate POV gets an entire chapter dedicated to their POV, but most importantly, the alternate POV is supposed to help progress the current plot. In these books?…the alternate POVs are all on separate plots, adding to prior and future books, but it’s a hot mess. The POVs in this one were short scenes, most of which weren’t even related to Sin and Tiff’s story. It was like the book had multiple personalities, and almost all of them clashed. I barely got through it.
I normally do enjoy this author, but every book in this particular series just continues to get worse. Nyx and Giulia were an okay read, if a bit weird at times, plot-wise. Then Link and Lily felt like a huge let down with their story. There was so much potential there, but it never panned out imo. When I saw the third book was on Sin and Tiff, my first thought was, “Why tho?” And yep, it was boring. Not sure I’ll continue this series, sadly.
I love this world. This is book 3 in the Satan's Sinners MC Series. This book is about Sin and Tiffany and their relationship. I love Sin! I actually love that all of the Sinner's stories, so far, have been about "older" men. Sin is pushing 40 and Tiffany is like 23, I believe. I love that dynamic. I really do. I don't want to give too much away but if you want to read this book, I would definitely start with book 1, Nyx. This series is super interconnected and you will read things that make 0 sense unless you've read the previous books! All that aside, I loved this book. I love Sin and Tiffany together, although I think Lily still might be my favorite heroine so far!These two were fire together and the angst and drama were just enough to keep me on my toes! Would totally recommend!
Not Good and not a dark romance! So sick of author's slapping that on their books to trick us readers of the dark romance genre into reading their ordinary book. Dark romance means dark romance between the H & h, not a bit of dark in their past before they even met.
It's also so poorly written, lacking in skill, professionalism and depth. There was no scene setting, no emotions raised, given the abuse the women suffered that should have been easy for the author to create, but no, not this author.
There isn't even the most basic depth to the characters. It was literally, 'this guy is called Sin, he's pretty, likes to party but falls for Tiffany and stops partying". Sin only likes her because she didn't fall at his feet like every other woman did, eye roll.
The author tells you things happened but doesn't write the scenes for readers to read. For example, it says they met up a few times after that first night but thats it, it says nothing about what happened.
Apparently the author deliberately cut scenes out of the book to hold them back to make readers buy them sepertely?! I know! And to make them sign up to her newsletter / mailing list, before letting them read them. Seriously?! It's incredibly unprofessional and I've never heard any author do that.
So many authors put everything they have into writing their books, to create the best story for the readers to get a full, deep story to enjoy and yet this author deliberately cut scenes to make her readers pay more, deliberately reduced the quality of her already lacking in quality and depth book, on purpose she did this? That shocked me. No thanks.
The writing really wasn't good, I only got to 35%. I eye rolled at the ridiculous, repetitive and basic thoughts and dialogue of the character's, and the wording used throughout. For example, 'I wasn't a virgin but he made me question if I was actually a virgin'. How in the heck him looking sexy would make her a virgin again I have no idea. "When she saw him her eyelashes got aroused"?! Yes that's what it said. Ridiculous.
The story and romance were painfully boring, the supposed banter between them was not funny at all. There are other issues including basic editing problems. And yet another author that doesn't grasp the concept of a dark romance, because this was not a dark romance. In short, this is a very poorly written book, completely lacking in depth and detail and was just plain boring.
I'm officially hooked! I've been consumed by this series and the Five points that kind of interlinks with it. If you've not read anything by this author, you're seriously missing out
I love this MC series! This is what a MC should be. Dirty brothers, bloody vengeance, nasty club girls, feisty old ladies, danger, intrigue, suspense and brotherhood. There is sensitive subject matter and harsh elements to these stories that fit my idea of a rough and ready MC. This story like the previous ones could be read as a stand-alones but there are some overlaps and continued plot lines throughout the series. This one is about the sexy brother, Sin, and his road name says it all. We find out the real reason behind his deeds that caused his banishment to Ohio. Like lots of things in this series, it's not what it seems. The perceived wrongdoing against Nyx's old lady was so much more than just Sin being a bad boy. But it takes a lot for Nyx to forgive and Sin to come home. And he needs to come home for his woman, the firecracker rich girl, Tiffany. What a surprise when their relationship is revealed. Tiff was turned on her head when she gave the sexy brother a chance. Sizzling chemistry has long term ramifications as Sin and Tiff turn into more than a one time thing. So many twists and turns with parallel storylines in the books and with the characters. The writing is fantastic, characters pop off the pages and we get peeks at things to come with the brothers and their women in each new story. This is not a quick, simple story but layered and complex with the mystery, suspense and swoon-worthy romance. There's nothing cookie cutter about these characters and stories. All the brothers are unique, their women fabulous and the stories are full of heartfelt emotion, gut-wrenching danger and terrific brotherhood. I can't wait for the next installment in this spectacular series. Dirty goodness!
ETA: listening to audio and omgggg so good so far ****** Just finished the audiobook and having Sin and Tiff come to life was an experience. I have never listened to these narrators before and i loved every minute of it. this really made me want to jump back into this universe. I cannot wait for the rest of the series to be in audio.
sin & tiffany
***there are triggers for this whole series. please look up content warnings and trigger warnings, serena does let you know there are triggers and lists some of them in the beginning of her books. we love that.***
tiffany lowkey buuuuuuuuuuuugggggggged me. lowkey highkey. this is another age gap (we love) tiffany is lily's best friend and her and sins relationship starts off as a fling and then naturally just turns into a relationship. we learn in this book why sin left giulia in the first book. he and tiff spend some time apart because he is sent to OK before nyx unalives him. sin is actively working on getting back to tiff and also try to appease nyx so that he forgives him. sin is very protective and possessive.
you also learn about sins connection to the five points which i loved. seeing the two world collide is my favorite thing about this universe and series. serena does such an excellent job with her couples and you see sin and tiff both grow as individuals and as a couple. i just loved it so much.
Could have been at least a solid 4 and maybe even 5 star read But Way to wordy. This really should have been about 100 pages shorter. The repetitive thoughts and conversations brought it down. And there was enough of that to take a full star away.
The action parts were great. So was the steamy parts. A lot of great in this story but unfortunately there were also some immature moments.
Between the repetition and the various immature moments, the pace of the story suffered Enough that a few times I thought about giving this series up. However, the action in chapter 13 has me reconsidering again.
So, I will continue this universe.
One thing I've noticed is the author writes the mob stories better than the mc series. Even though they are very much connected. The difference in writing is so obvious you almost think it's 2 different authors. Weird but True.
I love that each book more secrets & twists unravel. I did not see Tiff’s backstory coming. Also I felt so bad for her & Sin. I was looking forward to them becoming parents. Not fair. I’m looking forward to Steel’s book.
This book is downright gripping! It is unputdownable! Tiffany and Sin are a brilliant matchup. Their journey to love is an emotional one. The storyline is full of twist and turns, action, as well as sexiness. The story is intriguing and keeps you guessing til the very end. I absolutely love that the characters from the previous books intertwine with the current one to further the previous and current storylines. I highly recommend this book and wish I could give it more than five stars! I cannot wait for the next book in this fantastic series.
Wowza!! I love Sin and Tiff so much!! Book 3 definitely did not disappoint!! Each of the MC's stories are amazing!! So much turmoil and angst!! You feel the pain and excitement throughout!! Love love loved this one!!
I loved this one! I wasn't sure how I would feel about Sin after Nyx's book, but man I loved him. Almost more than Nyx which is saying a lot, lol.
Tiffany, was perfect for Sin. She's strong and tough. I liked how she would talk herself off the ledge when she would get all grumbly about the club girls. I was nervous at times because she was constantly referring to herself as a feminist and that doesn't work so much in this life. Well those characters don't really work for me in these types of books, but there was a good balance so it worked.
I had tears several times which I wasn't expecting. But it was a welcome surprise. I love when books make me feel so much emotion. And this one did that.
Not to mention, this book is packed with tons of answers that I was waiting for. Not all of them are answered, but so much is starting to make sense. Can't wait to keep going with the series.
Lord Have Mercy what did I just read! OMG I am so in love with this series. With every book we get more and more and this one was dark but you needed to read the darkness to get to the light and that is what happened to Sin and Tiffany.
Sin is a hot mess and he earned his name because he is Sin on a stick. Lordy lordy and Tiffany is his light. She has her issues but they work themselves out with the help of Sin.
This book was packed with so much . It had a lot going on in the side character’s stories as well as the main couple’s story . Sin was a huge manwhore and I mean whore! When Tiffany attended a party with her friend Lily at the clubhouse she saw Sin across the room . Let’s just say what Sin was doing did not leave the best impression but they were drawn to one another . There is so much drama in this book . TIFF’s whole world turns to heartbreak . Sin has to reckon with his past . They become one and in the blink of an eye so many things change . I loved every second of it . This series has to be read in order . If you don’t you will miss out on so much information for the other characters . This author is a genius in the way she weaves her stories together and she’s long been one of my favorite writers . Sin and Tiff are both lovable characters but both have flaws that when their past and secrets were revealed give insight into why they were who they were . If you love MC romances this is a must read ! I can’t wait until the next book in this series is released!
This was the third installment of the Satan's sinners MC and it was a fantastic read. This is such a great M C series and it just keeps getting better and better. This is Sin and Tiffany's story and it is a roller coaster ride of emotion. This book was steamy, heartbreaking and inspirational. Relationships between friends and lovers are strengthened in this book. I love all the various couples and how their relationships grow and change with each book. I am crazy about Sin. He is the perfect book boyfriend. Tiffany changes from a spoiled little rich girl into a strong woman during this book. I loved every second of this book and did not want it to end. I become so enthralled in this MC world and want to stay immersed in the lives of these characters. I can not recommend this book enough, it was a definite five star read.
If I were to join an MC, I'd want to be a member of the Satan's Sinners. Lots of hunky men. Strong, loyal, devoted women. Sin and Tiff's story was amazing. By now I should know to expect the unexpected with a Serena Akeroyd story...but the way the relationship develops still surprised me. It's got an undercurrent of sweetness to it that pulls you right in. It's not all poetry and roses though. There's struggle and grit and everything else that makes this a must read! As with all of her stories, the world is amazingly well developed and the secondary characters keep you invested and wanting more. Can't wait for the next one!
Serena has really developed some dark and dangerous men that are haunted by troubled pasts and saved by a undying love. I loved Sin and Tiffany. Another amazing installment in this MC saga. Enjoy ladies. I can’t wait for more of the Sinners.
This series just keeps getting better. I loved both nyx and link but wow sin was everything. I can't wait to see what's next in this amazing series and i would definitely recommend this book and series to anyone. It's one of the best mc series I've read.
I absolutely love Sinners MC!!! This book is one of my favourites, I loved reading Sin and Tiffany's story, some parts were absolutely gut wrenching and others filled with love. And that scene with lily and link.....🔥🔥🔥 absolutely blew me away, I loved it!!
There is only one thing to say about the MC guys.... hot AF! These bad boys are 💯! I don’t know how anyone gets anything done at the clubhouse... oh yeah it’s true they just do each other! On a more serious note. This book was great! This one overlaps the previous book in the series Link. This author is sneaky because while we are reading Link and Lily’s book these two Sin and Tiffany were getting it on behind everyone’s back. Insert evil laugh! Ok so the story is still evolving. The papa Lancaster, Lily’s dad, is still out there in this book but the Sinners are working together to get him back on US soil to take care of business if you know what I mean 😉 The story starts of with Tiffany mourning her dad. He offs himself because he can’t handle everything going down in the aftermath of Lancaster losing all his money to Lily. Tiffany’s mom is MIA. The love between Tiff and Sin is tested because he’s sent to Ohio for leaving his post in the first post when Giulia was attacked at the restaurant. OMG Nyx was soooo pissed! We see that there is a change already in the clubhouse. There are less and less men available. And with Tiffany not liking the way the other women in the clubhouse are treated and what they do with the men. I see the dynamics of the house turning from sinful to family oriented soon.
On another note... I’m not a huge fan of insta-love but the author makes it work in her series. I just want Rex’s story so badly!
OMG OMG OMG!! We finally get Sin's story and oh man it is a goody. We get some answers as to what really happened with him the night Giulia was attacked. Then we find that Sin has an Ol' Lady. His ol' lady is Tiffany, Lily's best friend. Gasping here!! So if you think that the first two books were intense, dang it this one is beyond that. I broke and ugly cried. This is full of action, emotions ride high and hard. So Sin is trying to make it back to the club but since he was shipped to Ohio for the screw up, he is wanting to get to Tiffany. He knew the moment he saw her that she was meant to be his. They work together, even though they are opposites. Except now Tiffany is dealing with a fallout of what is happening with Lily's dad. How will Tiffany accept everything now? So be prepared this book will rock you to the core. I can't wait to continue reading this series.
