Anise Storm does it again with book 2 of Men of Syn. After book 1 I had high hopes for book two. And let me tell you I was sucked into this book! I loved the continuation of the series but in another characters eyes.

I loved this 2nd book of the series and Author Anise Storm does not disappoint!! You do meet Caine and Emery in book one so it was great to have book two about these characters. Caine is a man that is wanted for murder. Hawke (from book 1) gives Caine a job to keep his head down at Club Syn. Emery is spoiled, entitled rich girl and Charlotte’s best friend. Emery’s world comes down when her father is involved with a scandal that leaves her penniless. On a stormy night, Caine and Emery bump into each other. Sparks fly!!! Caine fights for his freedom to clear his name while Emery tries to clear her fathers name. I LOVED this book!

Caine was a really good read. This is the second book in the Men Of Syn series. The storyline of this book was really good, but to me it lacked that special spark the first book had. I enjoyed reading this book and it was very spicy. I just didn’t like this one as much as the first. I enjoyed getting to see more of Emery though. Her character development throughout this novel was incredible to watch unfold. Caine had some development too that was enjoyable to experience as well. Overall I really enjoyed this book. It can be read as a standalone but you would get more from reading the previous novel first.

When I read the blurb I was salivating to read this book. It didn’t disappoint. I started this series with this book and will definitely be going back to read the first. Even though I didn’t start with the first book, it was easy to catch up and only made me want to backtrack and read Hawke. I fell for Caine hard and Emery is a perfect match for him. I will definitely be reading more from Storm in the immediate future. Thank you for a wonderful read.

The Men Of Syn Series might just be one of my all time favorite series. The second book Caine – is definitely a 5 star, if not higher. This book not only has the dark romance aspect I LIVE for. Caine and Emerys chemistry and relationship overall was AMAZING. I can’t wait to read the next books. The Men of Syn and then Syn club – constantly stay at the forefront of my mind. This book I do feel had a more thrilling aspect then the first book did – but nonetheless it added a fantastic element to the story.

Caine is book two of the Men of Syn Series. It can be read as a standalone but I suggest reading Hawke (book one) first because it is amazing and it would help explain some things that could be a little confusing from book two if the reader hadn’t read book one yet.
I was so excited to read Caine because I loved Hawke and it did not disappoint! It is a romantic suspense just like book one but the storyline of the suspense is different. Caine is on the run from Washington DC because he has been accused of murdering his father and Emery loses her princess lifestyle that was provided by her father because he got caught up in a scandal. Both are just trying to survive and they end up finding eachother.
I was the most intrigued with seeing Emery grow into herself. She was pretty shallow and in some ways sheltered from the “real world” because her dad never let her want for anything. However, when the real world came barging into her life and ripped everything away from her she was able to grow into an amazing lead character.
The only downside is that for a book revolving around a BDSM club there isn’t many BDSM scenes. There is steam for sure but not really as much as you’d expect.

Caine (Men of Syn #2) by Anise Storm
This is the second book I’ve read by Storm. It’s also the second book in the Men of Syn Series. You’ll meet Emery and Caine.
Emery has always relied on her dad to support her. When he is arrested everything she has is now gone. She goes to Syn looking for a place to stay, but finds her Dom. The quote I chose for Emery is: “It wasn’t too bad. Chad and I made a ton of tips.”
Caine has left D.C. because he is wanted for murdering his father. He didn’t do it although he had evidence of him threatening his father. When he meets Emery he tries not falling for her, but he does. The quote I chose for Caine is: “Keep them right here and I’ll show you exactly how glad I am.”
Highly recommended for Erotica Romance lovers.

Amazing.
I thought I loved Hawke, but goodness Caine takes it to another level! I adored this story so much. It had everything you would want in a suspenseful romance. Emery, a girl high on her throne, gets knocked down because of scandal. Though, she is bound and determined to clear her father’s name. In turn putting her life back in order. Caine walks into her life bringing his own baggage into her chaos or should I say storm. Their love shines through in every aspect. I love the connection and just their interaction with each other. An alpha man and the woman he loves. You could not ask for more! I can not recommend this series more!

Caine is the 2nd book in the Men of Syn series by Anise Storm. It is a great opposites attract contemporary romance novel. I had thoroughly enjoyed ‘Hawke’, the first book in the series and was looking forward to reading more of the men of syn. I can say that I enjoyed this book even more than the first one.
Caine is on the run, suspected of murdering his father. What he doesn’t expect is Emery Wilder, a spoiled princess who has everything given to her by daddy.
When Emery’s world crashes in on her, it is Caine who comes to the rescue, showing a very different character from the one he likes to portray.
I really enjoyed reading Emery and Caine’s story. You couldn’t get two people who are more different, yet they just make sense together.
This story had me gripped from the very beginning and kept me entertained and engaged throughout the whole book. The story is well written and flows very well and you just want to keep on reading more about this couple.
100% recommend.

After reading and loving book one, I had high expectations for this book. I was not disappointed. This book is HOT! It will take you on a thrilling ride that will leave you breathless. This is Caine and Emery’s story. Emery is a high maintenance socialite and Caine is from the wrong side of the tracks. Under normal circumstances, their paths would never have crossed. Fate had a different idea. He’s on the run fir a crime he didn’t commit. Tragedy strikes and leaves Emery penniless. A chance meeting during a thunderstorm starts something that will change them both. When secrets are revealed, as they usually are, can these two forgive to have their happily ever after?
Danger, intrigue and serious erotica. This story is exciting and will have you flipping the pages in record time. I think I loved this book better than the first. Hopefully the author will write book three.

Oh my, is it HOT in here or is this a good book? Book 2 of the Syn series has Caine coming to Colorado to help out at Hawke’s club. He’s in trouble for his father’s death, which he didn’t do. He crosses paths with Emery, Charlotte’s best friend. Her father is in prison for drug trafficking. There’s a whole lot of drama going on, with a lot of action, a few twists and turns, and some spicy moments (18+ please). The author has an excellent way of engaging so that you just can’t put the book down. The characters actually sound like the people you might run into downtown when you go to Denver. It’s been a treat to read this series. I definitely recommend you get out and pick this one up. You’ll like it too.

Caine (Men of Syn Book 2) by Anise Storm
Caine is the second book in the Men of Syn series by Anise Storm. I’ve read other books by this author and this one is definitely on my favorites list. This is a Romance book that one you start reading you won’t want to put it down until you finish I was lost in the pages and had no clue what was going on around me because I was so caught up in the story I had to know what was going to happen next. I absolutely loved Hawke from the first book but Caine is definitely a hot and sexy as sin man that finds himself on the run to Denver after the murder of his father. Caine is looking to lay low for a while and turns to Hawke for help. Hawke owns a BDSM Night Club and gives him a job. Emery is what one would call a Spoiled Entitled Princess who hasn’t ever had to work a day in her life and has always gotten what she wants.

These two holy cow! .Can he tame a spoiled princess? Will the secrets destroy what them before they get a chance? Find out what happens next in this absolute must read. I can’t wait for the next book in this series.

Another excellent book I have been waiting for from Storm. I really enjoyed the storyline and finished this book quickly!

This is book 2 in the Men of Syn series. Caine is wanted for murder. He runs to his longtime best friend Hawke. Caine needs to find enough evidence to clear his name or make enough money to leave the country. He starts working in Hawke’s members only BDSM club to make some quick cash. What he doesn’t anticipate is the princess that crosses his path. Emery is used to the best of everything, until her father is arrested and all his assets are seized, which includes everything Emery owns except for her car and a couple suitcases of clothes. The first contact between Emery and Caine there is heat.
I love the intensity between Emery and Caine. She can feel his eyes on her even when she can’t lay eyes on him. Even though Caine is a dominant, Emery can’t help but let her bratty side show, even when she knows there will be repercussions. Will the secrets they are hiding from each other be too much for them to overcome or will the feelings they have for each other win? I can’t get enough of the Men of Syn.

Caine by Anise Storm is the second book in the Men of Syn series, this is an utterly fantastic follow up to book one and is quite possibly even better. After reading the description fully expected to not really like this book – spoiled rich girl Main characters aren’t usually my favourite. However the author did such a good job of creating likeable characters that I couldn’t help but fall in love with them.
This whole book felt exciting. I’m glad I read them in order – although this could be read as a stand-alone – because it felt like I got a much better grounding for this book. I absolutely loved this book and cannot wait for book 3!

The Men of Syn are downright sinful for sure. I fell head over heels in love with the series with book one, HAWKE, so when I saw book two was available I scooped it up faster than you could say one-click. These reads hit all the sweet spots for me when it comes to dark and delicious romance that makes me blush as I read but has me coming back for more every single time. Once again in CAINE we are brought back to the BDSM club of SYN to get the story of Caine, a sexy dom on the run and up to no good for sure. I loved his story and couldn’t possibly think he would have gained higher love than Hawke but I was so wrong and he quickly became one of my absolute favorite characters that Anise Storm has written that I have had the pleasure of reading so far. I cannot wait to see what else this series will hold and who we will get to meet and fall in love with next!

Caine is the second book in the Men of Syn series. Caine is a sexy, tattooed and pierced man on the run from a murder charge. Emery is a spoiled society princess who has not had to work a day in her life… until it all comes crashing down on her. Lucky for her, Caine is there to help her out.
I liked this book. There was less BDSM than I expected, considering it is partly set at Syn, but that didn’t detract from it. A few things in the sequence of events seemed a bit odd, but overall it was a good story.

Honestly though I absolutely loved the dynamic and all the things stacked against them/bringing them together. This was an absolute perfect start to my September reads and I highly recommend this book to those who enjoy dark romances. Anise Storm did a fantastic job with this continuation of the Men of Syn series and I can’t wait to read more!

I loved Caine and Emery’s story – brilliant from the very first page until the very last, I wasn’t actually sure I was going to like Emery, it did take me a whole to warm up to her but I enjoyed seeing her evolve as the story progressed and seeing how the relationship between her and Caine changed also.
This is definitely a recommended read from me!

I’ve been excited about this one! I enjoyed reading Hawke, so had high hopes for what came next from Anise Storm and her Men of Syn. We met Emery in the first book, but she wasn’t sitting high and mighty living off Daddy in this one. Fallen princess meets dominant Caine. Trying to lay low, Caine is working to clear his name. What happens when their worlds collide? Steam, possession, love and secrets. I loved the growth in Emery by the end, and dare I say… I loved Caine even more than Hawke!

If you love Hawke and Charlotte in book one, you are going to love Caine and Emery in book two. The backdrop of the book is corruption at a high level. Caine reaches out to his long time friend Hawke for help when he has to run from Washington DC.
Caine is wanted for murder and Emery is left penniless when her father is sent to jail. The trouble these two find themselves in is linked together unbeknownst to them. They meet at Syn Hawke’s BDSM nightclub. Sparks fly when these two are together.
I loved that author Anise Storm kept the characters from the first book in the second book with more than a passing reference. If you haven’t yet read this series. I highly recommend them.

Caine is book two in the Men of Syn series by Anise Storm. Dangerous, delicious and dastardly are just a couple descriptive words to convey just a tad of what this book captured. Anise Storm is a masterclass storyteller and her words draw you in and captivate endlessly. Caine, all round bad guy, and Emery, the princess, make a very intriguing couple. Their path was paved in passionate and powerful clashes. Both have battles to fight, and as they learn more of one another, their feelings blossom into ever after together. I hung off every word and the fast paced story kept me breathless and hungry for more. Caine has left a lasting and heartfelt memory, and left me feeling ready for the next drama. 5 stars.

Caine is the second book in The Men of Syn Series by Anise Storm. I have been eagerly awaiting the release of this book ever since devouring ‘Hawke’ (Book One). So, to say I had high expectations would be a bit of an understatement.
Caine is on the run and is offered sanctuary at his friend Hawke’s BDSM club, SYN. (We met Hawke back in book one and got to see some of the inner workings of Syn back there). Being wanted for murder means he needs to keep his head down and keep a low profile until he can clear his name. But things take an unexpected turn when he encounters Emery.
Emery’s life was turned upside down in an instant. He ‘perfect’ world destroyed when her father is implicated in a scandal. Her life as a rich, spoiled society princess crumbles and she falls from her throne- all the trappings of her former life are gone, and she’s completely broke. Emery is determined to find a way to clear her father’s name and regain everything they lost. Then she meets Caine who brings his own complications to the mix. Get set for one heck of a hot and steamy ride here. Add in more than a few secrets that threated to destroy everything as well as bringing danger and intensity into the already combustible mix. This has taken my ‘Men of SYN’ addiction and amped it up to a whole new level!
Can’t wait to get my hands on Book #3!!!
Thank you, Anise Storm!

Caine by Anise Storm is the 2nd book in the Men of Syn series. In this installment, we follow the story of Caine, who has run to Denver to escape false accusations of the murder of his father. Here is turns to his friend Hawke, who helps Caine by offering employment in Syn, the BDSM club. This is where Caine meets Emery Wilder, a socialite living off her fathers wealth who’s never worked a day in her life. Emery is taken by surprise when she is removed from her penthouse home due to her father’s criminal accusations that freeze his assets. Emery is left with only some clothing and her car, which breaks down late at night in the middle of no where. Caine comes in as her savior this night and they grow a relationship that is steamy and unique. I enjoyed this book better then the first one mainly because of the characters. Emery at first is a spoiled girl but she grows into the situation that she found herself in. She wasn’t down on herself the entire story and I appreciate a character with growth. Caine is a protector and his love for Emery shines through. Great series by Anise Storm.

This is the 2nd book in the Men of Syn series. I really love these books. I love the dark gripping side along with the romance which catches you by surprise. The characters are really well written and your opinion of them changes as the book progresses.
Caine is running away from his life in D.C. After his father is found murdered and he becomes prime suspect. He runs to his mate Hawke who gives him somewhere to work and lay low while he tries to solve the murder of his father.
While he’s there he meets Emery. Emery is a princess who lives off her daddy. She thinks she’s above people and her attitude stinks. Emery thinks she has her life sorted until her dad is arrested for drug trafficking charges and all his assets frozen. Now Emery is homeless and broke and the person she turns to is Caine.
What starts out as a way to distract herself and give her a bed for the night becomes so much more as the couple get to know one another and their relationship grows.
However things aren’t that straight forward and when Caine realises the connection between his fathers murder and Emery’s father’s incarceration they need to work together to solve the cases.
This story is gripping and a real page turner. You want the couple to be together and happy however sometimes the skeletons that are coming out could be to much for the couple to bear.

I enjoyed this suspenseful romance story. This is the second book in this series which is just as great as the first one if not better. This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites by her yet. I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the first word. Her characters are unique and steamy. They are connectable and they brought the story to life on each page. They made the story fun and easy to read as well as hard to put down. I enjoyed their growth and chemistry throughout the story. The author’s use of details made their story realistic.This is Caine and Emery’s story. Find out what happens when these two have a chance meeting on a stormy night. You don’t want to miss this one, it is worth the pick up. This is a great story that I really enjoyed which I highly recommend.

Caine (Men of Syn Book 2) by Anise Storm is one book I have wanted to get my hands on after reading the first book Hawke. Anise has written these perfectly imperfect alpha men to give us a sexy, titillating and thrilling read. He is on the run and headed to his friend who owns the BDSM club, SYN to hide out. She has gone from an entitled princess to broke overnight. What ensues is hot, steamy, explosive and downright dirty. Secrets from their past threaten them both and will it be too much and keep them apart? I really enjoyed these two and even in the midst of trouble they are fun and their witty banter will have you smiling.
I said it when I read the first book and it is true after I have read this book but I cannot wait for more Men of Syn.

Hawke by Anise Storm
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Hawke is the first in a BDSM romance series, Men of Syn. Nathanial “Hawke” Hawkins is the owner of Syn, a BDSM club opening in Denver. He hires Charlotte Maxwell’s company to plan the grand opening party. Neither of them realize at first that they actually know each other through a BDSM club in another city the previous year.
I did not like Hawke at first. He is abrupt, rude, and dismissive of pretty much everyone around him. He did grow on me, and learning about why he acts the way he does helped, as did the development of his character. I liked Charlotte immediately, and even though she is submissive in the bedroom, she is anything but outside of that. I liked her independence and fire. The chemistry between Hawke and Charlotte is real! They are like 2 objects being pulled together by gravity.
Overall, I liked the story, but there were a couple things I had a hard time with. I felt their emotions developed fairly quickly, especially with all the conflict. The part in the hotel room also made me a bit uncomfortable. Despite that, I still liked the story and am glad I read it.
[The knife part in the hotel room made me uncomfortable and the speed at which feelings developed when there was so much conflict bothered me a bit. (hide spoiler)]
Despite that, I still liked the story and am glad I read it.

A “syn”-ful read that is sure to keep you flipping pages for more. This book hooked me from the first chapter and had the spice, romance, and suspense that kept me wanting more throughout. The characters were so well written that I felt as though I was really able to connect with them personally. I loved the writing style and found it to be an easy read that I could immerse myself in at anytime. I highly recommend this book and can’t wait for the next of syn to become available.
