Whispered Surrender (Sinful Duets Book 1) by Via Mari – Review by Jenni Bishop
Whispered Surrender by Via Mari
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Whispered Surrender is the first book in the Sinful Duets books by Via Mari is another fantastic read from this talented author. Whispered Surrender is the collection of previous books Wayward and Undercover.
I see Via’s name and jump straight in. I don’t even read the cover because I always know I am in good hands when it comes to her books. It is a great start to another of her fabulous series and has many of my old favourites from her other series. Hot alpha men looking out for their own with the backing of their employers who trust them like family. And the romance is all hot tamale and sizzling to the point of boiling. Via has once again woven her magic and puts you through hoops where the drama and secrets, fear and pain, love and lies is palpable and we travel to exciting place. There is conflict with some of the most powerful and dangerous men in the world including several mafia families.
There are two stories to one book and the first is Jay and Sasha’s story:
Jay met a siren, but she only has eyes for his boss. The beautiful ballerina takes his breath away but how does he get her to see she is made for him and him alone but when a secret is brought to light, he may just have to walk away with his heart in tatters.
The second book is Matt and Marenah’s story:
It is another exciting and titillating story in this series which is a spin off from the original Prestian series and another spin of being the Torzial Affair. Each of these series are fantastic and now we get to see the wonderful alpha hotties who look after and manage the security of the billionaires get their own stories. All the characters intertwine within each of the series so now we are getting to know so much more about them and get reacquainted with them much more intimately. As always Via leads a mighty dance keeping it all together without compromising on the great story. The action and feelings, the secrets and danger, love and drama is described so vividly that it is palpable and draws you in. I always lose out on sleep when reading Via’s stories as I have to know how it will all end, and it is so, so easy to get lost in the journey they travel in.
In this book we get to see where Matt came from and what he has been through. And when a mysterious blond comes into his life, he won’t let her go but when he finds out the truth, he may just have to do that.
I suggest you start at the beginning with the Prestian series and work your way through, because as I said they are all intertwined characters, and you will see where it all starts. You will thank me later.
Make a date and enjoy.
