Auctioned Surrender (Sinful Duets #2)Auctioned Surrender by Via Mari
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I’m still in love with these covers they’re simply beautiful and that match the content within ❣️📚

In this edition we get spoilt with Auctioned which is the story of Damian and Bryanna and Relentless which follows the lives of Derick and Layla 🥰

AUCTIONED

Damian is part of an elite team of bodyguards that protect billionaires and when the niece of one of these prominent families goes missing it’s Damian that is sent to rescue her from a human trafficking ring !

It seems like it’s a cut case , go in , grab the girl and get out bit this delectable speciMAN is about get more than her bargained … he’s trying to rescue someone who doesn’t want to be rescued but unknown to him the enemy has a bargain chip to hold over Bryanna so don’t get to frustrated with her …..

Don’t read Bryanna wrong she comes forth as a bit of a damsel but she’s strong and fiercely protective of her loved ones and yes like me she has a weakness when it comes to Damian 😱🔥

Also if I was Bryanna I wouldn’t fight Damian for just let him have his way 🤣 he’s an alpha and know what he wants and despite his frustration he’s still patient in the teaching of “ his ways”🥰🔥

I liked that I got different perspectives from different characters it feel like you have a better idea of the characters and what makes them who they are , they climbed into my dark heart 😉

RELENTLESS

These books are like aging red wine , each one gets better with time 😉

This time round I got uk spend time with Layla and Derick and let me tell you what Layla is a force to be reckoned with 😉

So Derick is also part of the elite team that protects people but he’s responsible for 2 of the most powerful mafia kings in the world 😱 and they ask him to look after Layla and boy does he have his full she’s full is sass , she’s feisty and fearless and he has to call in all sorts of favours to keep her safe.

I know the word word Maui’s scares people and yes sone of them are bad but there are those that have hard nos’s when it comes to trafficking so you guys are my heroes ! Anyhoo Layla is a woman on a mission she needs to find and save her sister and friend before it’s too late and I get why she’s kitting about who she can trust but Dereck is on her side and gosh it takes her a while to realise but when she dies they’re a formidable team 🔥

My kindle was a n fire , blood pressure sky high and I broke out into a sweat on more than occasion !
This was a read with with drama ,suspense ,angst , tension , spicy steamy romance ,tension , action and so much more !

Fair warning if you’re a sensitive reader rather avoid this series but if you like reading on the dark side …. Welcome you out world !

Auctioned Surrender (Sinful Duets #2)Auctioned Surrender by Via Mari
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Via Mari certainly knows how to write a page turner!! This is book 3&4 of the sinful duets series and OMG there is some hot action here.

Auctioned is the story of Bryanna and Damian. Bryanna is drugged and blackmailed into thinking that the bad people will hurt her family especially her niece and nephew and she will do anything to protect them. Including allow herself to be treated like shit, forced to strip and be auctioned as the virgin that she is to the highest bidder.

Damian has been assigned to find and protect Bryanna. Bryanna does not make it easy for him as once he finds her and gets her safe she keeps escaping and returning to her kidnappers to protect her family.

Eventually though Damian gets through to her and love wins ❤️.

I suspect another spin off novel to come involving Bryanna’s brother and also a few of the other characters ❤️

Relentless is the story of Layla and Derek. This is a spin off involving characters in roles within auctioned. Layla has tried to keep Bryanna safe and protected and in doing so gets herself the protection of Derek who sought her out for information. She has secrets of her own and I also suspect that they will come into play in another book at some stage? These men love to protect the women that they love ❤️

This could be considered a stand alone novel but once again it ties into the previous book characters in not only this series but also prior series. I suggest if you want to be hooked on a long running series – start at the beginning and I will be retrospectively reading to catch myself up!!

Not only do these books flow well together but they are very well written. There are so many nuances and I felt like you really get a good sense of who everyone is and their motivations. The relationship development between the main characters in both books really draw you in to the story and make you want to know what happens.

As with the first duet in the series, these books fit very well together. The main story lines are very similar but different. I feel as though the development of the relationships between the characters is a touch unrealistic. Overall really good books that go well together, would recommend!

Whispered Surrender (Sinful Duets #1)Whispered Surrender by Via Mari
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Whispered Surrender by Via Maria is part one in the sinful duets series and is the combination of two interlinking novels Wayward and undercover about two beautiful twin Russian Princesses.

Wayward is the story of Jay the head of security and a born protector and dominant whom has never been one to become obsessed or needy when it comes to the many women in his life. There is just something about Sasha.

Undercover is the story of Matt and how he met Marenah whilst undercover. Matt is being held whilst undercover by Chicago Mafia’s goons. The head of whom is none other than the twins dad!! Clues that Marendah sends to Sasha via her friend is enough for Jay and his team to break them both free.

There is some pretty heavy sex scenes in both novels as well as a lot going on with the underlying Mafia storyline. I do believe that you need to read all of Via Maria’s previous novels to be able to truly follow along with the characters that are mentioned and referenced. As a lot of the time I think the background of these characters whom have been in previous novels would help to give you a better perspective on the background of what’s going on.

I will for sure be going back and reading to catch myself up.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read a few books from this author and let me tell you I’m a huge fan. This is the third book to the very addictive sinful duets. I love a good romance story but getting two is amazing. I was able to put this book down until I finished with both couples. I could not help loving all the characters inside this book. I also love that she wrote both characters pov. I can’t wait to see what she writes about next.

Sheldon knows how to protect anyone. It is after all his job. So when he sees a girl at the wrong place at the wrong time he acts with no second thought. When he finds out that Alexis is wanted by one of the worst men he steps up to help her. Sheldon gets to know Alexis and he feels something he has never felt before. She is his light when he is in the dark. He knows it is a job but he can’t help falling for her. Will Sheldon find the one he has been looking for or will they end up in danger they can’t fight?

Nick loves his job which is to protect the innocent. He also knows the ladies very well. Nick can have any woman that he wants until he meets the beautiful Allie. Nick feels something for her he has never felt before. He tries to get to know her but she is a little standoff towards him. When he finds out that she is in trouble due her best friend he knows that he now has to protect her. Will Nick break down Allie’s walls or will the past break them apart?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I accidentally read books 2 and 3 first before realizing I hadn’t read book 1. But I felt like I wasn’t missing out while reading the other books. First things first, what really caught my eye was how aesthetically appealing the covers were, I absolutely love them. Sasha and Jay’s story was oh my goodness. I never really liked Sasha when I saw her in the authors other books, but now reading her story everything makes a lot more sense. There were still times where I wanted to slap the snot out of her, but she started to grow on me. However, in the second book Matt and Marenah I almost didn’t finish because first I felt like Marenah laid the mafia princess schtick on THICK, and it was starting to get on my nerves. But I’m glad I kept reading because the realization that she was just using it as a layer of defense made a whole lot of sense. Matt was such a great guy. Both males were absolutely fantastic and I giggled a little at the way they made me feel just reading about them!

Damian does not expect to fall in love with Bryanna, show her all the ways of being loved. Also brings in the dom/sub role here as well. Another super steamy read!! If you haven’t read the first book go do that! And go lock yourself away with these books!!

She struggles thinking someone could ever want someone who is so broken. Jay calls sasha his little angel and will do what ever it takes to keep her safe from anyone and everyone. There is many spicy takes, such as a dom/sub roles going on. 10/10.

Whispered Surrender is the first book or ‘duet’ as the author calls them in the series ‘Sinful Duets’. This book has two stories within it Wayward and Undercover. I would personally recommend reading these in order. Through this series I have found a new love for billionaire mafia romance. Who doesn’t love sexy, rich and bad boys? I could not put this down and in my opinion I did not want to stop reading.

Damian got an assignment that he thought should have been easy. All he has to do is get the girl back safe and sound. When he looks into Bryanna’s eyes he feels something he has never felt before. He needs to protect her at all costs. Damian will do anything to protect but will he be too late?

Dereck is put into a job to help his friends out. He is to guard the beautiful dancer Layla. Dereck was just going to make this the everyday job but Layla is something he craves. He loves her strong will and she is sassy. Dereck will do anything to keep her safe but will her secrets get them both into trouble they can’t get out of?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Via Mari has done an amazing job building a world full of romance with the hints of darkness and seediness and just the slightest bit of suspense and mystery into them. You are on the edge of your seat reading her words. You find your heart pounding and that sheen of sweat forming just over your forehead as you’re hoping against hope that the next few sentences keep our leading ladies and our brute strength safe from whatever that darkness is, that looming just beyond the horizon. I read this book, as well as the 2nd one in a matter of 2 days, and I honesty hated that it took me that long, but, alas, life… Anyway. I ABSOLUTELY recommend this author and these duets if you love an amazing dark mafia romance. You will NOT be disappointed!!

What an amazing world of Mafia magic Ms.Mari has created for us here. I am not usually one to get so invested in these mafia stories, but let me just say, I was here for it with this duet! Damian and Bryanna had such an amazing story and then to follow it up with Dereck and Layla’s story. I was just so enthralled. I can’t wait to read more from Via Mari.

I have read several books by this author and this one just proves why I keep coming back! Their ability to create such a magnificent world with well-developed characters ranks them high on my list. The first story follows Damian and Bryanna who have page-turning chemistry that I couldn’t get enough of. A marvelously written romance filled to the brim with suspense and emotions. In the second story we get to know Dereck and Layla with plenty of steamy scenes thrown in. I loved all of the characters in both books, but my favorites were the phenomenal females! They were strong, independent, and ready to do whatever it takes to get through. I hope you’re ready to spend your weekend with them all because you won’t be able to put this one down. I highly recommend diving in!

Enter the world of dark seduction and trafficking in this thrilling series.
This story included Bryanna and Damian. Bryanna is the niece of a rich socialite and finds herself kidnapped and up for auction to the highest bidder. She follows her kidnappers every order because the alternative is her family gets hurt and she refuses to let that happen.
Damian is part of a group of billionaire bodyguards and very good at his job. He’s called in to find Bryanna but what he doesn’t expect to find is absolute fascination and inappropriate thoughts regarding the girl he’s trying to save.
Can he get her our? Has Bryanna met her knight and shining armor? Will the attraction be enough to help Bryanna escape and will her family stay safe? Pick up this book to read an electric series inside a dark world.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Whispered Surrender is Book One in the Sinful Duets Series. This is a collection of previous books by this author called Wayward and Undercover. It is a dark mafia romance with action, suspense, danger, drama, secrets, sizzling chemistry, and intense passion. The first story is about the characters Sasha and Jay. Sasha is a ballerina with low self esteem and trust issues due to being used and discarded by men. Jay is a bodyguard who is strong, smart, and has watched Sasha from afar. He will do anything to keep his beloved angel, as he calls her, safe from one of the numerous powerful enemies that are after them. Sasha struggles to believe that Jay could care for her but the attraction between them is undeniable. Can the two have a relationship through the danger and chaos? Both stories overlap and intertwine as Jay is looking for his friend Matt. The second story is about Matt and Merenah. Matt is undercover trying to gather intel on the mafia. When he is captured by the Russian mafia it is up to Jay to try to save him. While undercover he falls in love with Sasha’s sister, who is a mafia princess. He immediately is beguiled by her beauty and falls in love with her. Matt and Merenah both carry deep, dark secrets so this makes them wary of letting their guards down with one another. They are attracted to one another, but can they find love through the secrets and learn to trust one another? Great stories with strong, smart, powerful characters.

Auctioned Surrender (Sinful Duets #2)Auctioned Surrender by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Auctioned Surrender is a duet that follows the similar story of her previous Sinful Duets. In the first book, Auctioned, it is the story of Damian and Bryanna. Damian is private security for very wealthy people looking for these individual’s niece. She was thought to be picked up for trafficking. Damian does end up finding her at a bar where Bryanna has become a stripper, but we quickly learn she is to be auctioned off due to her virginity. Throughout the story, Damian is attracted to her and that just grows when he end up capturing her himself to save her. She keeps trying to run away to save her family not realizing Damian can help. Will he be able to get her to understand in time that she doesn’t need to do this alone? Will the security company finally figure out who is behind all the trafficking?
In the second book, Relentless, it is more of the same. Only this time, Dereck, who also works for the security company, is trying to get information from Layla, Bryanna’s friend. Layla also strips for the bar and Dereck believes she is the way to understanding the trafficking ring. The story starts with info already known from the last book, but now we get the details of the behind-the-scenes. In addition, Layla is on her own mission to find out who killed her cousin and took her sister. She believes it could be the trafficking ring. Dereck vows to protect her because he is very attracted to her, but he doesn’t realize that this sassy lady has a lot of secrets that can’t be disclosed. However, they start to work together and have a relationship to get her sister back. Will she become the submissive he is looking for or will her sass get her hurt?
I always love a great mafia romance, but this is the second of the duets I have read and I am starting to feel it is more of the same. It is a continuous addition to the original story but with different leading men from the security team. I have no issue with these men or women characters, I always love a strong, protective, but gentle type, however, I just feel it is more of the same. All the men that work here apparently love the dominant/submissive BDSM lifestyle and all the girls are pretty much craving the submissive aspect too. Overall, the story and characters themselves were fine and a quick read (well each book is a quick read, but long as a duet). However, I am just a little tired of the same storyline and dynamic.

My rating: <a href=”https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/6157390549″>5 of 5 stars</a><br /><br />
The second book that I have read by this author (the first being Whispered \Surrender) this is the second in the series and is another duo collection.<br />Auctioned with Damian and Bryanna, Damian is contracted to find a kidnapped woman, and when he finds her wow, their chemistry is off the charts. There is darkness and deep feelings, the characters are amazing.<br />The second in this duo of books is Relentless and we follow Derreck as he tries to keep Layla safe and out of trouble as she is desperate to keep her sister safe. Touching in trafficking and Dominance.<br />Alpha male and strong female as with the other books I have read from this author have chemistry in abundance and a dark edge to keep you enthralled.<br />

A new author to me and what an author to find.<br />If you like your words learning more towards the dark, this bratva, mafia series is for you, the characters are loveable with a good handful of darkness, and they develop through the books. Between the characters and the world described it is very difficult to put the book down, <br />Two books in one, honestly what more can you ask for.<br />In book 1 Wayward: we follow Jay and Sasha in their story, protector and princess, high chemistry and angst, a fantastic read on its own when Sasha finds herself in trouble can Jay both keep her alive and safe and keep his job. <br />In book2 we continue with Marenah and Matt in Undercover. Marenah is sister to Sasha in Wayward, in book 2 almost everyone has secrets and it weaves a web of deceit, but is deceit for the good of the many enough to complete a mission. <br />I really enjoyed both books

Auctioned Surrender (Sinful Duets Book 2) by Via Mari – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Auctioned Surrender (Sinful Duets #2)Auctioned Surrender by Via Mari
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Having enjoyed the previous book in this series I was looking forward to this second novel which is two stories in one, great for binge reading! First is Damian and Bryanna’s story, not only is he connected with the mafia he’s also a wealthy bodyguard. His assignment should have been easy, find Bryanna who had been kidnapped by a global trafficking ring and take her home to her family, but Bryanna has offer plans. Bryanna has secrets and the trafficking ring have a hold over her which makes her fight Damian and even escape from him. However, as soon as he saw Bryanna, he knew she was going to be his and he will do anything to protect her. Dereck and Layla also meet whilst he’s on an assignment, she’s an exotic dancer who has links to the criminal underworld. When Layla is in danger, Dereck calls upon his mafia alliances to help keep her safe, as all it took was one look and she was going to be his. I was captivated by these two dark romantic suspense stories, and although the storylines have me on the edge of my seat, I like knowing that the couple will get a HEA. The chemistry between both couples is fiery and I love how their relationships develop throughout the story. An enjoyable and engaging duet and I look forward to book 3.
