This collection of stories is a good way to pass a couple of hours. The first three felt more like short stories, but the last one is a bit longer. I like the use of a wendigo as a character because you don’t see that very often. The spin on the mummy’s curse is a bit different as well.
The title is apt, because you will have to suspend belief for some of it, lol. But, since I read it during Halloween season, it seems right in the spirit of things. Also know that there are plenty of steamy scenes. ? The only thing I had a difficult time with was the collection that Chastity had. The bottles…Gag! That does not belong in the refrigerator beside the food. LOL!
Overall, I’d say this collection is a fun little reading jaunt to spice up your Halloween…or any day, really.

Payne – Review by Naomi McDonald
A wendigo. An ancient cursed pharaoh. A haunted brothel. And the Loch Ness monster.
There’s something for every paranormal romance lover in each of the four books in the Supernatural Love Stories in the Absurd series.
If you want to laugh, cry, and need to change your panties, check out these unique paranormal love stories.
PARCHED (book one)
A wendigo controlled by a curse. An insatiable mystery woman. One sexy, crazy ride.
Greed. For the last 4,000 years, it’s been my curse.
Every day, I live with the repercussions of the terrible choices I made.
I thought I’d seen it all…then a black aura crosses my path.
The beautiful woman it belongs to sends my world into a tailspin.
She gets under my skin, hypnotizing me with her adventurous and kinky nature. I almost forget I know nothing about her.
Thinking with the wrong head can certainly get a man in trouble, but in this case, it could mean an end worse than my curse.
CURSED (book two)
A cursed pharaoh. A determined archeologist. Three days to find true love.
The dank depths of the Egyptian ruins reveal something I’ve been searching for my entire adult life—the tomb of the mysterious pharaoh, Nebtawyre Mentuhotep IV.
And somehow, the sexy king steps from his sarcophagus very much alive.
Lust soon overpowers reason as I fall down the rabbit hole with Wyre.
He claims me completely—my mind, body, and soul.
We only have three days to break a 4,000-year-old curse placed on him by his crazy ex.
If we don’t, he’ll return to his tomb and take my heart with him.
SPIRITED (Book three)
A haunted mansion. A sexy ghost. A contractor determined to fix both.
Buying and renovating the old plantation house seems like a great idea. The fact that it’s supposedly haunted by the spirit of a murdered prostitute is a minor oversight.
I don’t believe in that crap anyway.
But after a late-night rendezvous with a sexy spirit elicits a very real nocturnal emission from me, I have to rethink my belief in poltergeists…and love.
The intoxicating woman who has been trapped here for over a century casts a spell over me with her humor, courage, and passion.
I have to do something to free her from her ethereal prison.
But will my actions break her metaphysical chains, or will they release something darker into my new home?
LOCHED (book four)
A legend under the surface. A woman obsessed. A destined love.
Returning to Loch Ness means coming home in more ways than one.
The monster exists. I’ve seen him. Visions of the beast haunt my dreams and waking hours.
I need to get back to the loch. To him.
When he rises from the water again, I watch him shift into a sexy Highlander right before my eyes, and everything I think I know evaporates.
He’s so much more than I imagined.
A magical attraction between us leads down a path of ancient curses, family lore, and to an unmistakable love.
But will it be enough to keep him human, or will he return to the murky depths with my heart?

Rogue Wave is the second book in The Inland Seas Series by Gwyn McNamee that is fast paced and filled with action.

I absolutely loved the characters Cutter and Valentina, they are definitely in the top as my favorites of this author. Cutter is a dangerous man, and is very good at planning and carrying out missions. Valentina is a independent yet strong woman who finds herself being saved by Cutter. He’s suspicious of her and doesn’t hide his anger yet she feels drawn to him. What does their future look like? Find out what happens next in this absolute must read.

Rogue Wave (The Inland Seas Series Book 2) by Gwyn McNamee is a five star novel. First off, Gwyn McNamee is one of my favorite authors. I have read many books by this author and have loved every single one. I was so excited to read this next series from her. As with most series, starting from the beginning gives you more background and another great story, so I recommend that. This novel is full of suspense as Cutter and Valentina have many fights and setbacks and don’t believe they are good for each other, but for some reason, they just can’t leave it well enough alone. As the story unfolds, we are able to find joy for them and hate as well. Perfectly written!

Gwyn McNamee has done it again! She keeps proving to us how much of an incredibly versatile author she is!
After leaving us with that ending in Squall Line, I couldn’t wait to dive into this read, and boy am I glad I did! This book was even better than the first! I was totally captivated and entranced with this read. You are not short of epic twists and turns that have you on the edge of your seat. I absolutely love both of the main characters in this read the are opposites that definitely attract with their passion, chemistry and the back and forth they have they continue to make me want to find out more and follow their journey throughout.
I cant wait to see what else is brought to this series, this book is a must-read that you will not want to miss!

This is the story of all stories when it comes to who to trust! Cutter is a misunderstood madman. He’s a good guy but has to do some unsavory things to get by in life. War is not easy on anyone.
Valentina is the first female mob guardian. Apparently, she is bad to the bone. But where did she come from? Is she to be trusted? Whose side is she on?
This story, this series, this author, surprises me with her stories every time. Surprises me that she can keep me guessing. Surprises me with the excitement and wonder of a new story.

Rogue Wave by Gwyn McNamee a five-star read that will leave you out to sea. This is number two in the Inland Sea series and they just get better with each reading, this built on the characters and story, making it a stronger and more developed story. Cutter and Valentina are just so powerful together, they have such a great chemistry it sets the page aflame. But there is a slowness to the burn, its not a quick burn and out, it burns slow and strong just like the best fires. Gwyn McNamee always brings a good story, but this one brought the waves as well.

Rogue Wave (The Inland Seas Series Book 2) by Gwyn McNamee is a great addition to this series. It is a fast paced and action packed tale that will have you restless on the edge of your seat. The characters are complicated and fierce but also have many many layers but once you peel them back you can see into their hearts. I enjoyed book one but this book had me feeling so much more for our two main characters and their stories. I am glad we got to peel back Cutters layers and that what we found was a man who has the same fears, self doubts and hurts and is afraid to go after what he thinks he could never have.
Valentina is not afraid to call you out and tell you how it is. What she does not like however, is to be disrespected and you can bet your bottom dollar the man who infuriates her is also the same man who sets her heart on fire.
Gwyn has written a story that is a great read and has a great plot which is complemented with the strong characters she has given us. I look forward to the next installment.

Rogue Wave (The Inland Seas Series Book 2) by Gwyn McNamee 5 million stars
I didn’t know where this book was going to take me so I jumped feet first and held on for the ride. After the way the first book ended, I needed this book so badly. And after this book, I really need the next one! This is a one click author for me, i don’t care what she writes I’ll read it. I don’t want to ruin anything that happens in this story, it’s a must read and i’m so happy we get to see into another of this bunch of guys heads.

This series just keeps getting better and better. I devoured this book and i was sucked into all of the awesomeness. There is twists and turns, I laughed and I cried throughout all of it…. i couldn’t put it down. I was excited to get Cutter’s Story! He appeared in the first book and i knew i had to get my hands on his story and figure him out. He is such a great character and i was interested to see were his story would go. He meets Valentina and the chemistry between them is off the charts. They are each others equal but they have to find common ground and learn to get along or the chemistry between them will fizzle out and the love hate relationship they have will just turn into hatred. This story is a must read and i would recommend it to a friend.

Rogue Wave (The Inland Seas Series Book 2) by Gwyn McNamee. This book was amazing and don’t start it thinking you will stop after a few chapters. It sucks you in and you are glued to the pages! This is the story of Cutter and Valentina also known as Kraken & Principessa. Cutter is a deadly and dangerous guy who does what he has to do and does it well. Valentina is strong, intelligent and independent so when Cutter saves her it throws her off completely. Cutter is supposed to be her enemy but there is so much chemistry between them. Cutter is even letting thoughts of her mess with his job and that’s never happened. Will Valentina let down her guard and let Cutter in? She doesn’t want a sweet, cookie cutter man she likes the raw, wild, gunfighter he is. This is not for the faint of heart. It will make your blood boil in more ways than one! Great read!

Rogue Wave is the second book in the Inland Seas Series by Gwyn McNamee. This is not my first book by this author and it will not be my last. One thing I have found with McNamee is that I do not start reading her book until I can have enough time to read the entire story. This story is captivating. This book has Cutter and Valentina story. Valentina is a highly intelligent woman. She was saved by Cutter. There is some tension between Valentina and Cutter. Their relationship can border on a love/hate relationship. This story took me on a roller coaster ride that kept me on the edge of my seat. There is some suspense within the story, so keep your eyes open and enjoy the ride with Valentina and Cutter.

Book 2 in “The Inland Sea Series”, ROGUE WAVE picks up where SQUALL LINE left off. As there is a continuing arc, I recommend reading this series in order.
“So I’m alive?” “All your breathing and talking suggests that.” “Am I gonna make it?” “Not because of anything you did, but because of modern medicine and the strongest antibiotic…”
Cutter was a real @$$ and I didn’t care for him I the first book. He definitely redeems himself now. He can still be an @$$, but at least I understand why.
The book has a pace to it that moves so quickly at times I was afraid I wouldnt be able to keep up. The writing is so visual, it is like watching a movie and the dialogue is serious, witty, necessary, and reasonable. Throw in a bulldog named Milo and it is just a winning combination.
This is one of those series that I can’t wait for the next edition to be written. It is shaping up to be my favorite series.

Rogue Wave is the 2nd book in the Inland Seas series by Gwyn McNamee. It can be read as a standalone but I’d suggest you also read Squall Line before this book, purely as Squall Line is a fantastic book and will introduce you to Grace and Warwick who also play an important role in this book. I first became a fan of Gwyn McNamee by reading her fabulous Slip Series (highly recommended). Although I’m a fan of this author I was very wary of reading this book as I really didn’t like the main character Cutter in the first book, so I was afraid that I wouldn’t connect with him in this book. He’s an angry, abrupt, arrogant man. For most of this book I still didn’t like him at all. This did not stop me from loving this book. Valentina is a total badass, feisty woman and gives back as good as she gets from Cutter. I loved the dynamic between them, how they both distrusted and disliked each other yet couldn’t help but be wildly attracted to each other. I also found that I was totally gripped to the storyline from the very beginning and was kept gripped throughout. This book is filled with danger and suspense and you can’t put it down as you want to know what’s happening next. I really hope that the author continues this series as I’d love to see more from the other guys in the group.

Holy hotness Batman! It gets increasingly difficult to review Gwyn McNamee’s novels. I struggle to find the words to really express what each of her novels do to me as I read them, and Rogue Wave was no exception to the rule. In fact, this book stands out as one of my favorites of McNamee’s to date. A difficult thing to do when her Stone Sober novels are some of my all time favorite reads in the history of ever.
This book takes back to the Inland Seas and the dark, looming, and suspenseful romance that seems to plague the characters in these books. This time we get to follow The Kraken and Principessa, also known as Cutter and Valentina. I absolutely flove these two. The way their romance ignited my kindle screen will be difficult to ever forget. I was gripped by the story they had to share with us and couldn’t get enough of the suspenseful drama that unfolded. I will definitely be the first in line for the next installment. I am sure it will just as fabulous and blow me away!

Rogue Wave by Gwyn McNamee is the second book in the Inland Seas series. If you haven’t read anything by this author before then I cannot stress enough that you need to change that. And this series is the perfect way to do it. Gwyn McNamee can only be described as a pure artist. Everything she writes is perfect. It has the right amount of action and suspense, off set with romance and passion. Her characters are strong and relatable. They draw you into the story so fully that you are engrossed without even trying. That for me is what made this book so amazing. Cutter and Valentina were brilliant. The charisma and the chemistry they had both popped off the pages. The book had the right pace to it as well. The author knew when to push it forward and knew when to draw back to let the story tell itself. This is yet another 5* read from this author and I cannot wait to see what else will be next.

Rouge Wave by Gwyn McNamee is the second book in the Inland Seas Series She has a way of grabbing you from the very beginning of the story and takes you on an amazing journey with her characters. I have yet to be disappointed with anything I have read by Ms. McNamee and I have been fortunate enough to read most of what she has written to date.
Cutter is the guy you see walking down the street towards you and you either find yourself crossing to the other side or doing everything possible to make sure he didn’t notice you. He is angry (justifiably so) and his anger is visible.
Valentina is awesome. She’s tough and not afraid of Cutter or calling him out on his bull. She is a great person to match up against him and they do go toe to toe a few times.
Great book two to the series and I can’t wait for the next one!

Rogue Wave was a great 5 star read and book two in The Inland Seas series. All I can say is Wow, what a heck of a read. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was coming next.
I was excited to get Cutter’s story. We got to meet him in the first book. In this book we get Cutter’s history which drew me right in and intrigued me.
Cutter is very edgy and not your typical man and I loved him. Valentina was a strong woman who was looking for her equal, and Cutter fit that mold. These two were so hot together you could feel the chemistry coming off the pages. We get some very steamy scenes from them.
Can these two get a HEA?
Overall I really enjoyed this book. There are several unexpected twists and turns that threw me for a loop. All of the secondary characters were great. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series. If you’re looking for a great MC read, I highly suggest you 1-click and get started today.

This is just as entrancing as the last book! The author easily draws me in and traps me with her words. I can’t let go until I have finished this book!! She makes me care about these characters. After the last book I couldn’t WAIT for Cutters book. I wanted to know more about him and WHAT type of woman could handle him. Let me tell you…it was worth the wait! He is a scary, angry, hard and a bad attitude kind of guy! This is not your normal lovable alpha man.
Hanging out with the crew is great as always. They have a wonderful camaraderie and trust in one another. Having War on Cutter’s case about certain things (involving a woman) made me laugh and chuckle.
Another knockout by this author. The writing is so smooth! Easy transitions from one scene to another making it flow so nicely. Everything is just perfect.i can’t wait for the next. Preacher!

Rogue Wave (The Inland Seas Series Book 2) by Gwyn McNamee was a fast pace, action filled edge of your seat read that had me hooked.
The second book in this intriguing read, I was pulled in right away. The book bought out all that I wanted from the MC’s in the first book. And I have to say that I loved this book more than the first.
The MC’s really stole the show. Well developed with strong layers that just kept being pealed back, they kept me reading and I didn’t want it to stop. It isn’t very often that I fall for both leads, and I have to say even though I wasn’t a big fan of Cutter in the first book, this one showcased him in a different way. So much backstory, so much, just, wow. I want to know more about him. Valentina carried over that fierce powerhouseness from the read, and she just kept proving how awesome she is.
Overall this is worth your time and energy, it has everything you want, strong sexy complex characters, great plot, wicket writing, and you got one hell of a good read. To end this book gets my super high recommendation and my golden stamp of approval.

After Wrath is the second novel in the Deadliest Sin series by Gwyn McNamee. This is my eleventh novel by this author.
Continuing where Wrath left off, it’s been a few years but are things really quiet?
Here we are introduced to the character Aleksander who wants revenge. I know he is the bad guy but I really did love reading from perspective even possibly finding a love of his own.
I don’t want to give too much away but I highly recommend reading this.

Wrath is the first novel in the Deadliest Sins series. This is my tenth novel by this author.
Initially reading this, I felt like there some other part of the story that I had missed. The main characters had already fled and were trying to rebuild their lives but I wasn’t sure what had happened to them before.
Continuing to read, it didn’t matter what I missed. The story gave me flashbacks and bits of information to put some pieces together though not a full picture.
When his women is taken, Konstandin risks everything to rescue her even if it meant his own life.
I love this author and I will happily read everything she writes.

“They just woke a sleeping dragon. The years I’ve spent in the background have come to an end. It’s time to take my rightful place at the head of the family.”
This man, Aleksander, is just plain evil. Until he meets Brynn. But even her love is not enough for the dragon to change. She does bring out his caring side but this story is entitled After Wrath for a reason. There are no rainbows and unicorns in this story. Aleksander is on a mission. His mission is to avenge Saban’s death. Family comes first, no matter which Mafia family you are a part of.
I have said in my past review for McNamee, unforeseen twists. Twists that make you scream at your reading device. Twists that make you cry with sadness and with hope. McNamee is a master twist writer.
This book, well really this series, is not for the faint of heart. It is for readers that like dark, twisted, unimaginable stories. Way to go, McNamee! Looking forward to the ending?

Surviving Wrath is the third book in The Deadliest Sin Series by Gwyn McNamee. What a truly amazing book to end this series. This series must be read in order to understand and get the true message throughout the series. I love how this author spins the theme of wrath and the conclusion in the best. I will not give away any part of this amazing story. I will just say it is a must read especially if you love dark romance. Review by @sunbarn
Let me start by explaining a little about Alek. He’s dark, dangerous, violent, bloody, destructive, and…I love it! The man has serious issues and takes way too much enjoyment out of what he does and it seriously turns me on! Crazy right??? Gwyn has the uncanny ability to make you completely fall in love with her characters, no matter how gritty, dirty, and bad they are! She has quickly become one of my absolute favorite authors. Even in a quick read such as this one, the story line is so detailed, raw, and emotional that you see and feel every word she writes.
This is book two in the Deadliest Sin series and they must be read in order. Book one left me in shock. Book two, After Wrath, picks up with Aleksander seeking revenge on those who he feels have wronged him. Seeking to unleash the wrath of the Dragon and no one will stand in the way of him reaching his goal. The ending was completely unexpected and left me full of anticipation with how this can all possibly play out! The only thing I know for certain is that it will most certainly not disappoint! This series is gritty, violent, powerfully emotional, thought provoking, and sexy! I can’t wait to delve into Book 3 and see what journey the author takes us on! As is everything else I have read by this author, this is a 5-star must read series!

Wow! I knew going in that this story would be awesome. Every book I’ve read by Gwyn has been and this certainly did not disappoint! This book is a quick read that you won’t put down from page one to the end! It’s definitely NOT your typical happy ending love story but it WILL make you travel through the vast array of human emotions! It’s violent and bloody and a spectacular example of what we are capable of, and what we are willing to sacrifice, in an effort to keep our loved ones safe. I fell in love with these characters. Even after I finished the book, the feelings just simmered in my chest. That anyone could love another person this much… Go ahead and grab this one! You won’t be disappointed. You will possibly go into shock, but won’t be disappointed at all!

Oh Gwyn…This is one of my absolute favorite, must-read authors but man…she wrecks me emotionally and mentally every single time!
Surviving Wrath was an exceptionally well written conclusion to the Deadliest Sin series but I want more! I need more! I’m still trying to rationalize with myself that this is truly the end. And what an ending it was! I’m not sure if I’m happy, sad, angry, straight up pissed off, or all of the above. I don’t know exactly how I feel but that’s the thing with this author, she ALWAYS makes you feel!
This is book 3 of this series and they must be read in order. Trust me, once you start book 1, you won’t stop until the last words of book 3! Every minute spent reading will have you on the edge of your seat, heart racing, impatient to find out what is going to happen next. You can’t help but fall in love with all the characters, whether they are good or bad, they become a part of you. You find yourself wishing for certain outcomes for them that they may or may not get. You’ll be happy and heartbroken at the same time. I won’t go into any details about the storyline because I don’t want to give anything away, but you definitely need to read this series! Gwyn McNamee is a stellar writer and never, ever disappoints! More than 5 stars from me!!!!

Surviving Wrath is the last novel in the Deadliest Sins series by Gwyn McNamee. This is my twelfth novel by this author.
With such a fast paced conclusion, it left me with a lot of questions and I hope the author may come back to this series to fill in the blanks. Felt like the ending was open ended with the possibility for me which I am all for. The ending definitely leaves you speechless and not sure what to think. I have all these questions about what happened to the characters and how things progress.
The novels are really short and quick to read but they are worth it.

Ok that headline is a little shouty, but you will be doing yourself a disservice if you read this series out of order.
Surviving Wrath is the third and final installment of “The Deadliest Sin Series”. The series is told in multiple points of view which makes the read very interesting. I thought I knew what was going on – I really did – and I’m not sure if I would make the same or different decisions when faced with … well read the book to find out.
Now that the series is complete, I am going to go back and read all three from beginning to end as each picks up where the last left off. The flow of the series is strong and perfectly paced. Emotions (including wanting to throw my Kindle against a wall) were felt the whole way through.
A note about the writer… I read the “Slip Series” and assumed she was a rom-com author. I read “The Savage Series” and assumed that was as dark as she could go, that is not the case. I have no idea what she will write next, but I for one will be one clicking as soon as it has a title.
I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND THIS SERIES AND THIS AUTHOR!!! (wow that was shouty too)

Surviving Wrath (The Deadliest Sin Series Book 3) by Gwyn McNamee. This is the 3rd book in this series and to say they are amazing is an understatement. Do not try to read this as a standalone because you won’t understand. I truly loved this series and this book is no exception. Its so fast paced that once you start you can’t put it down. Its still about Konstandin & Rea being in hiding from the Mafia. They are still trying to escape with their lives from those that want revenge. This book is a quick, take your breath away story and I don’t want to say too much to give away the story. Just read it, you won’t be disappointed. You will understand without a doubt that Wrath is the deadliest sin!
