Olivia is back in Seraphim Academy, beside allies she will take the society down and bring back her brother from Faerie, while dealing with an unexpected betrayal.

What I love the most about this books is the development in her relationship with her father, Gabriel. He is finally being a dad and standing next to her daughter for better or for worse.

Her relationship with her harem is slow, to say the least, still nothing is official and there's still one of her men fighting against the attraction and feelings for her, for a RH woth only 3 books in the series this is definitely slow for me.

I still expected more from the spice, there was a MFM scene, but nothing too great.

I love her relationship with Marcus, he will do anything for her. Bastien is finally letting himself feel, and the scene when this happens is beautiful. Kassiel is being the sexy, dark and protective professor as always. Callan is being an as*, also as always, but their relationship also develops.

The games between the academies feel a little childish for me, but it's fitting to their age and the academy settings.
What really keeps me reading this series is still the mystery behind her brother.

I definitely need the third book stat!

Sinful Things was so easy to devour. Or maybe I just have a problem when it comes to reading? Not sure but it was definitely a page turner for me. Might have to deal with Olivia being so damn likable but who knows.

Now that the whole world knows that she's half-angel and half-demon, thank you Callan, she is definitely called demon trash more times than I liked. Heck anything after the first time and I wanted to throat punch people at this school. Sometimes someone would step up and tell them to shut their traps.. but other times she just endured it. It's not her fault for who her parents were.. even though no one truly knew that until the end-ish of the book.

The gang is getting closer and closer to finding out where Jonah is. He is Olivia's brother and she is trying everything and anything to get to Faerie land. Even getting into the Order was a good plan to begin with.. but then things were starting to get a bit sketchy. Without knowing who to exactly trust, she starts to get some allies. Along the way though, she gets betrayed.

Not sure what the heck the next book will have for me but I am super excited to dive into it. Even though Callan has yet again, said a deep dark secret that wasn't his to the whole damn school. Not even mad or surprised that Olivia is pissed all over again. I'm just wondering what is going to happen next for these guys - I want to see some groveling. Then there's the whole question on who she could feed off of now..

So many questions guys!

Yes yes yes!!

I was so excited to keep reading this story that I read the third book before doing my review. I never do that! But I had to know how it ends! No worries though, I won’t give spoilers from book 3.

This book has it all! Just like the previous book, there’s plenty of romance and adventure as Liv tries to find the staff and Jonah. This book has a sweet closure, but it’s not over. The 3rd book will be the ultimate ending.

Give this series a read. It’s definitely worth your time. I’ve read several Fallen stories and this is one of my favorites. Happy reading y’all!!
