So this is a new to me author!
I was going back and forth on ratings but I think it’s a good solid 4 stars!
So usually I NEVER read books where one of the MCs dates the other’s brother or sister. But this was different. Our FMC Charlotte went on three dates with Mason’s brother, Leo. They never had sex so I felt it was safe for me to read it.
Charlotte meets Mason on her second date with Leo and the minute she see him she’s no longer interested in Leo. She uses the third date to try and break it off with him but things happen and she’s not able to.
Mason and Leo are a part of a “gangster� family. Their words, not mine. I had no idea what category they fall under because they never said they were mafia. They call the other families, the Russians and the Italians so I was super confused as to what Mason and his family were supposed to be. They are just the Kincaids I guess.
Anyway some things go down the night of their last date in the club that the Kincaids own and Charlotte doesn’t see or speak to Leo again after that night. But Mason has been watching over her for two years because Mason has also wanted Charlotte from the moment he met her. In the present Charlotte sees something she isn’t supposed to see and she is taken to Mason for protection. I got a little confused here because his thoughts about getting rid of her and protecting her were very conflicting. One minute he felt like she was his and the next he wanted her to go away. Idk super wishy washy. She has to stay with him at his home and this makes Leo very angry. Not because he still wants Charlotte but because his brother got one up on him once again. In fact he didn’t even really want Charlotte. Apparently his thing is to go on three dates, the second being to meet the family and then after he sleeps with them he doesn’t talk to them again. Which is what he was planning on doing with Charlotte.
I was confused as to why she needed to change her appearance and act like masons girlfriend in order to keep her safe. I mean she could have stayed the same and still acted like masons girlfriend so he could say she was under his protection. I don’t get why she needed to change the way she looked, made no sense to me.
I did end up liking Mason. He cared deeply for Charlotte and eventually put her before his family. He was so sweet and protective over her. I liked her as well. She annoyed me at times, especially when she threw herself at him at one point. I mean it paid off but her thought process was sometimes eye roll inducing. But she grew on me.
One thing I appreciated was we never heard about masons sexual past. He never thought about it or brought it up and neither did any of his family so I don’t get manwhore vibes at all. But I would have really liked to know how old he was?!
So Leo was the villain in this book in my opinion. He was such an asshole and caused a lot of harm so I’m nervous that his book is next. I wish we would have had Roman’s book first because I really liked him and also because I feel like Leo needs a little redemption before he’s given his own book. He was truly awful in this one. I’m hoping he’s redeemed really well in the next one. I have a feeling I won’t like him for the first half of the book but I do plan on reading it.
NO CHEATING
NO OW DRAMA
OM DRAMA (because Leo is out of his mind)
NO THIRD ACT BREAK UP
VIOLENCE
HEA
IM THINKING AGE GAP BECAUSE SHES 22 HES THE OLDEST BROTHER AT LEAST IN HIS THIRTIES BUT ITS NOT MENTIONED

I’m so glad Tammy has turned her hand to this genre, Dark romance is a great favourite of mine, and she has done a wonderful job with this first story.
Charlotte and Mason are dynamite, the sparks flying from these two are so hot, my kindle was steaming.
Fantastic characters and a brilliant story.
I can’t wait for more from the Lords of Las Vegas.
Don’t miss this epic first book .

This felt really disjointed, like the author wasn’t entirely sure what genre or trope they were going for. It was weird and uncomfortable.

This is a fast-paced book—first one in Lords of Las Vegas. If you’ve read stories with mafia themes before, you haven’t read anything like this. Conflict and discord are a main issue within the family here.
Mason Kincaid keeps his attraction to Charlotte under wraps for a few years until she’s in danger. He goes into full-on protection mode as they both navigate their issues and feelings. Family and business concerns serve as the action and climax. My favorite part of the plot was how Charlotte used her photographs to show her feelings. Her taking photos of Mason’s hands seemed to be a microcosm of his strength and power.
Loved this book and can’t wait for the next!

Dark romance without it going too dark.
Mason is obsessed with Charlotte but doesn’t act on it for two years. He just has her followed the entire time before she’s kidnapped and forced to stay with him.
It’s a classic mafia romance with power struggle and Mason falls first, hard, clearly as he’s been obsessing over her.
Charlotte had instant attraction to Mason.
There’s some drama but nothing over the top, light weight drama for a mafia read.
Overall I thought the story was well written and enjoyable.

👑Posibile spoilere!
👑Charlotte își dorește să fie invizibilă pentru toată lumea, își dorește să își ia diploma și apoi să plece din Las Vegas, dar mai ales își dorește să nu se intersecteze iar cu Mason Kincaid, cel care conduce lumea întunecată a Las Vegasului și vreme de doi ani reușește acest lucru. Dar într-o noapte totul se schimbă, deoarece este martoră la un eveniment în care este implicată și puternica familie Kincaid, eveniment ce o aruncă iar în fața puternicului Mason.
👑Mason este dur, este frumos ca păcatul, este arogant și puternic, dar are o slăbiciune: pe Charlotte, cea pe care vreme de doi ani nu și-a putut-o scoate din minte, cea pe care a vegheat-o din umbră, dar acum când are oportunitatea de a o avea iar în viața lui, profită de ea, motivând ca dușmanii lui sunt pe urmele ei. Astfel Charlotte ajunge să locuiască împreună cu Mason, spunând celorlalți ca sunt logodnici, chiar dacă lucrul acesta nu este deloc pe placul lui Leo Kincaid, fratele mai mic și mai rebel al lui Mason.
👑Charlotte încerca să facă față farmecului lui Mason, încerca să se adapteze pentru o scurtă perioadă de timp în viața acestuia, încerca să reziste atracției și sentimentelor care iau naștere în inima ei, dar eșuează lamentabil, deoarece Mason este irezistibil și o face să își dorească mai mult, să își dorească să fie iubită și protejată. La rândul lui Mason este vrăjit de Charlotte, ea îl face să fie mai maleabil, să fie mai puțin dur, îl face să privească viața și altfel, îl face să vrea să se bucure și de alte experiențe, îl face să devină cea mai bună variantă a lui.
👑Totul se schimbă când secrete din trecut sunt dezvăluite, când Leo acționează impulsiv, punându-și familia în pericol, când Mason trebuie să facă față provocărilor și să ia o decizie în ceea ce o privește pe Charlotte: fie renunță la ea, fie o face regina regatului său, așa cum a fost sfătuit de unchiul său, Jake .
👑De ce Leo este deranjat de apariția Charlottei în viața lui Mason? Ce secrete ascunde Mason față de Charlotte? Cum va gestiona Charlotte toate provocările care vin din faptul ca ea este parte a vieții lui Mason? Cine vrea să înlăture familia Kincaid și de ce? Va reuși Charlotte să cucerească inima de piatră a lui Mason? Răspunsurile le veți afla voi.
👑Eu sunt atât de haotică în alegerea lecturilor mele, mereu încep serii și apoi găsesc altceva și uit de ele, dar seria asta este exact ce trebuie pentru mine, primul volumul mi-a plăcut tare mult și deja l-am început și pe al doilea. Mi-a plăcut totul, de la personaje, la atmosfera, la tensiune. Charlotte și Mason sunt perfecți împreună, se completează reciproc, ea este o dulceață de fată, care îi cucerește instantaneu pe cei cinci bărbați Kincaid (mai puțin pe Leo, dar când își va da seama ca greșește, va accepta și el relația lor). Mi-a plăcut cum Mason realizează cat de importantă este Charlotte pentru el, cum datorită ei devine mai bun în fiecare zi și cum va face totul pentru a o ști în siguranță, punând-o pe primul loc în viața lui, deși și-a jurat ca nicio femeie nu va fi mai importantă decât familia. Mi-a plăcut relația cu familia lui, cum Roman îi este mereu aproape, cum reușește să-l ierte pe Leo, mi-a plăcut mult de tot, deși nu mă așteptam. Recomand cu mare drag și abia aștept să descopăr și celalalte povești.

King Of Sinners - Tammy Andresen
5/5⭐️
4/5 🌶�
✨✨✨✨✨✨
This one was seriously such an amazing read! I loved it so much and I did not want to have to put it down! This book captures you and pulls you in from page one. I’m so invested in this series now and already ready for the next book!
Mason Kincaid is truly a king! What a top tier book boyfriend with a mouth that will have you melting for him. He had me falling hard for him. The way Mason was so protective over Charlotte and just cared for her safety could have been borderline too much for some but for me it was perfect! Charlotte is just always finding herself in the wrong place and needing some saving but this time it’s for the last time. In the end I really feel Mason and Charlotte healed each other and were everything the other needed.

Charlotte Fairfield has a couple of dates with Leo Kincaid but when she meets his older brother Mason she has eyes for no one else but an incident at a club breaks all connections with them. Now two years later walking home from her part time waitressing job she witnesses a crime & flees only to saved by Roman Kincaid who takes her to Mason. The course of their two lives is irrevocably changed.
This is the first contemporary romance the author has written & boy was it good! Fast paced, wonderful characters, electric chemistry, steamy & yet tender. I loved it & can’t wait to read the rest of the series. I loved both Mason & Charlotte, they fall hard & fast for each other, he’s SO protective & caring, she’s not sure whether to stay or as is her wont to run. I loved their journey to a HEA & devoured this lovely romance in a sitting
I voluntarily read and reviewed a advanced copy of this book; all thoughts and opinions are my own

I really enjoyed this first book in the new series by Tammy Andresen. I am a huge fan of her historical romance genre, and I wasn’t certain about a contemporary setting. However, as is typical, Ms. Andresen far exceeded my expectations with this book! I loved the details and characters who seemed so true to life. I can see many subsequent stories which need to be told. And I love Mason and Charlotte, setting the bar for all those after them! I’m so excited to read the next one in the series!!

I didn't think I would like this type of book, but because it was by Ms Andresen, I gave it a try. This is completely different from the genres that I usually read, especially from MS Andresen. I thoroughly enjoyed this. Am eager to read the next one in the series.

The Lords of Las Vegas is different than other stories I have read by Tammy Andresen but I am looking forward to reading more in this series. Mason Kincaid considered the King of Vegas meets Charlotte Fairfield, a student at UNLV by day and bartender by night. There story is engaging it has a very good storyline that kept me turning pages. I received a copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

The grammatical errors almost made me quit reading. Every time they happened it took me out of the story.
I don't care for the instant love that happened between the characters. They met twice and barely even talked a couple of years ago, yet Mason couldn't get her out of his head. That didn't make sense for me.
Charlotte was a weird character I think. What woman would take a shortcut through alleys late at night in Las Vegas? She's lucky all that happened was witnessing a murder. I didn't understand all the talk about Charlotte's senses and how everything has to be a certain way for her, I felt like she was neurodivergent or something. And the whole thing about men being weak being the reason she was a virgin was nonsense.
I'm not big into submissive female characters so Charlotte was very cringey to me. When she got on her knees and told Mason she was ready for her punishment made me want to throw up. Every time she said Mason knew best and didn't question anything was annoying.

Look it wasn’t the best book but it was a lot better than some of the Booksta books I’ve read lately so 3⭐️
July 16, 2024
For a book that has a description that makes the forfeiture of a virginity, that is very much NOT the focus. The relationship was nice but as dark romance/mafia goes, it wasn’t my favorite. It was a nice, average, easy read.

King of Sinners(Lord's of Las Vegas #1) by Tammy Andersen. I am so glad I decided to read this book. Tammy is a new author to me, and this was my first time hearing about her no less reading her book. The premise for the story is what attracted me to want to read this book. Charlotte had initially been dating Leo, who is the younger brother of Mason Kincaid. The Kincaid family is a very powerful family in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, on a date out with Leo, something happened that scared Charlotte away from the family. After some time, when leaving work, she comes across an execution, and now she finds herself at the mercy of Mason Kincaid. She needs his protection. He will give it to her but it will cost her. The only thing she has is her virginity. Initially, he can't believe she is a virgin regardless. That fact doesn't change the fact that he has had an attraction to Charlotte ever since Leo had brought her to a family dinner years ago. This is their story. Charlotte has felt the same attraction since that dinner. Now Leo feels some kind of way with the plan Mason has come up with to keep her safe. I couldn't get enough of this story. I truly enjoyed it and am extremely excited that there will be other books in the series surrounding the Kincaid family. 4.5 stars for me.
June 7, 2024
I was not a fan of this book. For me, the way the story started out and then progressed in the first quarter of the book left me a little confused. It eventually made sense but I think the writing style/story progress decisions didn't lend to the story running smoothly. More so, if Mason was such a big bad player, the King as the title says, the way he dealt with Charlotte's predicament didn't make sense to me. Over all the story did not flow well and had a lot of back and forth with the same issues. The chemistry between them was amazing but fizzled for a bit before coming back strong. What absolutely ruined the book for me was the entire Leo track. He feels like he's been wronged by his brother taking his ex so he attacks her, dislocates her shoulder in the process, but after one conversation all is basically forgiven. I wanted to throw my tablet at the wall at that point. The part of the book I did enjoy was the rest of the brothers and their own bonds that grew with Charlotte. How they grew to respect her and point out to Mason that she's the queen their empire needs.

WOW! I was totally blown away by this mafia contemporary romance story by Tammy Andresen. I love this author’s historical romances and normally do not read billionaire or contemporary romances but this one is having me reconsider and broadening my book selections.
This was a dark romance set in Las Vegas. Mason Kincaid, is the head of his family, (Leo, Roman, Luke and Jake) and together they have their eyes and ears on the important players and everything going on in Vegas.
Enter quiet, Charlotte Fairfield, working as a bartender after finishing her studies at UNLV. She went on a few dates with Leo Kincaid, but when she met his brother Morgan, she was instantly attracted and felt a sexual attraction, which was unusual as she was still a virgin. Before she gets a chance to break up with Leo trouble breaks out in the club. Mason tells Charlotte to keep her eyes closed and her mouth shut. She steps away from the Kincaid family knowing to keep her mouth shut and doesn’t look back.
Two years after this encounter, she is walking home from work and observes someone being killed. She is rescued by Roman who takes her to Mason who gives her his protection. Unaware that Mason has been having her followed and that he has an attraction to her that he is unable to shake.
I loved Charlotte and Mason together. He was danger, power, sexiness, and trouble all wrapped up into a flawed man but had a softer side too. I adored his sweetness and caring nature towards Charlotte. Charlotte was innocent both in life experiences and sexually, neat, smart, and also flawed but she makes Mason a better man.
The romance that develops between Charlotte and Mason is hot, steamy, spicy, and sizzling but more importantly was the feelings they have for each other. Mason is struggling with running his businesses, dealing with his quick-tempered brother Leo, and the danger they are facing from their adversaries, while keeping Charlotte safe. He finally faces that she is worth more to him than his power and money.
I highly recommend this action paced story, with family drama, sizzling chemistry, passion, wonderful characters and an unexpected sweet romance. I can’t wait for the rest of the Kincaid brother stories!

Charlotte needed to blow off steam after her long night waitressing. Since she had turned down her professor's suggestion on how to guarantee she passes her photography course he has been giving her an F on all her assignments and she is determined that her last assignment be accepted.
So despite not living in the best area she takes off on foot winding through the back alleys of Vegas. She is taking her final turn when she hears a sound that has her head jerking up. Two men holding another on his knees and then the sound of a gunshot. Hearing her gasp they take off after her.
As she feels them gaining on her a car stops in front of her and a man exits the driver's door with a gun commanding her to stop. Except he is looking over her shoulder at her pursuers and tells her to get in the car. When he dials and number and mentions her name, she looks at him in shock and then realizes that he is the younger brother of Mason Kincaid.
The man who had threatened her life two years ago if she mentioned who they were.
I loved this book! It is very well written and the characters are fully developed and relatable. Two years ago Charlotte had been on her third date trying to find a way to let Leo know that she was not interested in seeing him again. Things were moving too fast with their second date being a family dinner, but as soon as she saw his older brother she knew that Leo was not what she wanted.
That was the night that her life changed forever. When she found out how dangerous the Kincaid family was.
This book is action-packed from page one, full of danger and steamy hot. Charlotte is in her last semester of college and can't wait to leave Vegas behind. Mason is the head of his family. Their real estate empire is legit but they straddle the line legally. But his family owns Vegas and no one threatens him or the ones he loves. Even his own family.
Highly recommend!

King of Sinners
Lords of Las Vegas #1
By Tammy Andresen
Author Tammy Andresen has completely changed lanes and has given readers a contemporary romance that takes place in Las Vegas. The home of the mafia, high end hotels, bright lights and nights where those that like darkness come out to play nightly.
With dark romance, the mafia, the bratva, as well as a knew group moving into the Kings territory, Author Tammy Andresen’s new series has been added to my list of mafia writers.
The Kincaid men run Vegas, they work as a family and have their eyes on everyone. Mason Kincaid is considered the King of Vegas and along with his family (Roman, Leo, Luke and Jake) they know their enemies and they know who to keep their eyes on.
Charlotte Fairfield, a student at UNLV by day and bartender by night. Charlotte is very aware of the Kincaid’s, a few years ago she was dating Leo Kincaid but, she broke up with him on the third date. That was the night Charlotte met Mason. She knew Mason was the type of man she wanted…but was sure that was never going to happen. What she didn’t know was after she walked away Mason had her followed. Two years go by and then it happens again, someone was there at the right time…whisked her away from an incident right into Mason Kincaid’s home.
The flames that have been ignored are now starting the burn and smolder while the nights get hotter and spicy between Mason and Charlotte. It’s time that Mason sets some ground rules for Charlotte. He’s obsessed with her and he is determined to keep her safe…but at what cost?
I truly enjoyed reading King of Sinners! The author did an amazing job moving into this darker mafia, contemporary romance genre and I can’t wait to read book two.

Chalotte & Mason
Diese Geschichte hat eine interessante Idee, über eine Mafia Storyline. Der Schreibstil war leicht, hatte eine wechselnde Erzählperspektive beider Protagonisten und dennoch war er sehr Langartmig.
Allerdings fand ich die Umsetzung leider eher mangelhaft umgesetzt.
Obwohl im Klappentext steht das es sich hier um Mafia handelt, ist dieser Aspekt leider sehr rar und wird nur namentlich erwähnt.
Abgesehen von ein paar Schlägereien und bisschen Kugel fliegen gab es nichts was auf "Mafia" hindeutet.
Zudem kam der Zwist zwischen Mason und Leo, der mir doch zu lang andauerte und immer wieder ohne Sinn reingeworfen wurde, sodass es die Geschichte einfach nur zäh macht....
Der Deal zwischen Chalotte und Mason fand ich interessant und war der Anstoß für beide sich ihrem Verlangen und ihren Gefühlen füreinander zu stellen. Da die aufkommende Beziehung der beiden im Mittelpunkt stand, fand ich gut gelungen.
Die Charaktere waren okay.
Charlotte konnte ich nicht wirklich einschätzen, denn anfänglich wirkte sie wie eine graue schüchterne Maus, doch im Angesicht des Todes, von dem sie glaubte das er durch Mason's Hand kommt, wurde sie mutiger. Dennoch blieb sie auf einem gewissen Grad Mason gegenüber unterwürfig.
Mason konnte ich anfangs ebenfalls nicht wirklich einschätzen. Er schien Charlotte nicht zu mögen, zumindest erschien seine Wortwahl anfänglich so, doch sein Handeln ihr gegenüber zeigte etwas anderes. Im späteren Verlauf weiß man dann was in im steckt.
Die ganzen "Rache" Gedanken und der Zwist zwischen den zwei Brüdern, war ein einziges Wirrwarr und bis zum Schluss wurde es nur oberflächlich erklärt.

Mason Kincaid, a name that resonates with power, danger, and an irresistible allure. Tammy Andresen, renowned for her mastery in Regency Romance, ventures into the shadowy corners of passion with her latest work, King of the Sinners. This novel marks a daring departure into the world of Contemporary Dark & Steamy Billionaire Romance, and it does not disappoint. Set against the glittering backdrop of Las Vegas, the story follows the tumultuous relationship between Mason Kincaid, the eponymous King of Vegas, and a determined college student, Charlotte Fairfield, whose life takes a dramatic turn when she crosses paths with the enigmatic billionaire. Andresen weaves a narrative that is as intense as it is intimate, exploring the depths of desire and the price of protection.
The chemistry between the characters sizzles off the pages, their connection a fiery dance of dominance and defiance. As the couple navigates the treacherous waters of trust and temptation, they find themselves drawn to the rugged beauty of Colorado, a place that promises a fresh start and a future as wild and untamed as their love. This book is more than a romance; it’s a journey of self-discovery, a battle of wills, and a testament to the transformative power of love. Andresen’s foray into this genre is a resounding success, setting the stage for what promises to be an unforgettable series. I voluntarily read and reviewed an Advanced Reader's Copy of this book; all thoughts and opinions are my own.

Was this the best book I’ve ever read? No, was it the worst book I’ve ever read? Also no.
However book was lacking in so much which is a shame as more often than not the mafia/billionaire/touch her and die stories are normally easy to get right.
Sadly this one missed the mark in several places, the plot didn’t really exist and there was no basis to it, it didn’t lead anywhere and therefore it just seemed liked it was there to explain why the MMC + MFC were together.
The MFC witnessed a murder, that was it, this is what led to her being taken in by this “mafia family� but it was never mentioned again until the very very end off the book and it was just explained away from a meeting with all the “mafia� families in the area.
So basically there was no threat to life, because she had a new hair style, quit her job and then it was all resolved.
She basically stayed in his penthouse for the whole story, except when she visited her college and then a scene happened with the teacher and then blah blah never mentioned again / back to the penthouse you good little girl. *Yawn*
Book lacked a lot of substance, there was a lot of errors throughout with pacing, spelling, grammar and the way some sentences were written/formed.
However if your just looking for something to read to distract you from life for a couple hours, this is a very quick, easy read it’s just not very enjoyable.

Charlotte and Mason
Love this book because � No 3rd Act Breakup!! And the story was even better without it. There were hints that a 3rd act breakup might happen as Charlotte likes to do a runner when things get hard. And Mason spends all his energy trying to keep Charlotte with him.
Charlotte and Mason are so perfect together. It was obvious 2 yrs ago when they met while she was on a 2nd date with his brother and it’s even more so now. They get this 2nd chance after she saw something she shouldn’t and Mason decides he needed to protect her. Things go very fast for both of them. This is not a mafia story. Mason is in the legit side of the real estate business but his family has ties to mafia and Bratva. So the plot has some intrigue and danger.
Mason is kind and protective of Charlotte. He doesn’t push her, he treats her well, but he’s also very possessive and bossy. Charlotte has a small bucket list of things she wants to do but being with Mason gets in the way of that. But as they get closer and develop this connection, they both start to realize that plans must change. I love how these two are grownups and handle all their doubts, fears and questions like adults should. They don’t break up just when their story is getting to the good part. They admit their feelings and communicate. It’s a well deserved HEA. Well written dual POV, tight plot with interesting and well developed characters. Looking forward to brother Leo’s story.

MS. Andreson is a new author to me and I fell in love with your writing style. I believe this is a new genre for her and if so I have to say you nailed it. King of Sinners is book 1 in her Lords of Vegas series and it’s jam packed with suspense, thrills, revenge, spice and romance. It’s well written with well defined characters and the perfect amount of backstory for the series (in this readers humble opinion). Mason Kincaid is the “King� of his Vegas empire. He is feared by most and known for his shrewd, ruthless dealings in both the business world and the underworld. His sights are solely set on his family's empire. That is until he meets Charlotte, his little brother’s current girlfriend. She becomes his secret obsession that is totally off limits, even after the split from his brother. But when Charlotte finds herself at the wrong place at the wrong time and sees something she shouldn’t, the only one who can protect her is Mason. But is the cost too high and can she keep her heart in check if she has to be around the devilishly handsome dangerous man every single day?
Outstanding start to the series and I can’t wait to see what happens next with the Lords of Vegas.
2 Thumbs Up and 5 Stars

This was my first introduction to this author. I was asked to read on behalf of it being a new writing genre for the author. I must say, I am not disappointed.
This is the first in the series (Lords of Las Vegas)
The author exceeded my expectations with this storyline. Such attention to detail and I loved truly getting to know the characters. Getting to learn about the members within the Mafia. I can also see so many other books unfolding from this first book.
The Chemistry between Mason and Charlotte made me weak in the knees and that I needed a shower.
It is action packed with family drama, there is some very spicy passionate chemistry, and there is a sweet love story deep within the book.
I am very much looking forward to book two and finding out more about Leo’s Story next

This is my first book by this author and it was such a wild ride. King of Sinners was my first physical read in quite a while, and I started it not knowing what to expect - next thing I know it’s 1:00 in the morning and I’ve finished the book in just a few short hours.
Tammy Andresen’s writing style is simple and straight to the point with the perfect eye for the little of details that always keep you connected to the book. She wastes no time introducing you to the Las Vegas life style of her main characters and I loved every second of it.
Mason is undeniably the king and his relationship with Charlotte is so powerful and all consuming and it seriously made me so happy. His attentiveness and urge to constantly protect her melted my insides and I loved that they could still have fun together even when everything around them was getting out of control.
The storyline was so great and intense, I loved learning about all the different groups in the mafia life and I can’t wait for book two to see the storyline progress even further and of course see all the growth from Leo that I know he is capable of.

📖 ARC BOOK REVIEW 📖
Title: King Of Sinners
By: Tammy Andresen
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
Tammy graciously gifted me this physical copy in exchange for an honest review.
This was my first introduction to Tammy’s writing and I am obsessed!
Charlotte is an early twenties college student who is on the cusp of graduating and leaving Vegas behind her.
One late night walk home after work leaves her a witness to a crime and her life is now on the line. Lucky for Charlotte she’s rescued by a mystery man at the right time, only to discover this mystery man is someone from her pasts brother, who’s now taking her to the eldest brother for protection.
Protecting her doesn’t come for free though, and Mason Kincaid knows exactly what the price will be.
The chemistry between Mason and Charlotte gave me butterflies, they were destined from that very first time they met.
I am so thankful for the opportunity to have read this and had it as a physical copy!
I cannot wait to see where the series takes us next with Leo’s story!

I’m obsessed with ex boyfriend’s brother troupes. This book took me out my reading slump I’ve been in� it is a real slow burn but it’s not the dragging kind that some mafia arrangement books have. It has the right amount of drama, lust, family drama, mafia. It’s a fast read, I finished it in 2 hours, I did not put it down once.
Mason is the kind of mafia husband any woman would do anything for. He knows his priorities, he will fight the world and his family for you. He fought his place within the family, trying to hold onto his promise but being tempted by his younger brother’s “play thang�
Charlotte is from a small farmer town in Nebraska (I don’t wanna hear anything about all ppl from NE are corn farmers.. I live in NE in an actual city, not everyone live on a farm) she’s struggling to finish off her senior year of college, with a plan to blot as soon as she graduates to NYC.
