This is the adventure we all have been waiting for. We finally get a Original Sinners follow up, that is Kingsely in all his glory. I was expecting this to be a book about battles,killings, war and of course great sex.It all that and more. It is like the Original Sinners on steroids. It's twist and turns will take you on to the battlefield Tiffany does best love.

Now we get the Kingsley story. This Sinners novel is a complete standalone for Kingsley, about twenty years in the past as a young man exploring his bisexuality. An unofficial official mission sends him to The Chateau, where men serve women. It's erotic and explicit, and finally gives us answers as to who this monster is that helped Kingsley find himself. If you've read any of the Sinners books you know him and will completely "get" this book. In the past I've been turned off by Reisz's books, just too explicit for me, but I wanted to try again knowing this was different. I'm pleased that I was accepted to receive an early copy, I really enjoyed the path he took.

I was NOT expecting this book at all!! I really enjoyed this story and definitely recommend it if you want a story that is unlike any other. About halfway through, a thought popped into my head about this story and by then end, I realized that thought was correct! Loved it!

I didn’t want to put this book down. Tiffany Reisz has a way of making you feel like a part of the story, or at least like you’re in the story watching the events unfold. I’m pretty sure it could be read more than once and different nuances will be picked up that weren’t before.

If you’ve never read Tiffany Reisz, definitely let this be your starting point. I’m also going to be looking up the book referenced.

Tiffany Reisz once again dazzles Original Sinners fans with an erotic thriller of a novella for one of her most fascinating characters. Kingsley Edge has so much depth under so many layers we learn something new of him with each new Original Sinners publication. Reisz takes us back in time with this novella revealing more of King's sordid past while introducing new characters to the scene who helped shape the man we know and love. With her deliciously twisted Sinners tales Reisz delves into the unknown of characters we thought we already knew so intimately. The Chateau holds no exceptions to this as we witness a young Kingsley in the midst of a major life change where he's forced to face his greatest fear through a pleasureful journey of pain and acceptance. It was a satisfying way to find out how King became The King in this story of self discovery. Another Original Sinners winning story, I only wish there were more from that past transitioning to after that, maybe for another time. Reisz's writing is as exciting as it cathartic. She's a brilliant story teller whose abundant love for her characters shines with every turn of the page.

I loved this book especially learning about Kingsley when he was in his early 20s. This was a nice refresher for the original sinner series. A bit different direction then I thought this story was going to go. Fans won't be disappointed and I think I love Kingsley just a bit more.

Oh la la this Kingsley's book!
I loved Kingsley, even more young Kingsley!
I loved this book, all of it is a declaration of love for Soren and their relationship!
Sometimes it's heartbreaking, sometimes swoon but it is so Kingsley!
I loved Madame character, so mysterious and smart!
The third part is swoon ! (I am sure the answer is yes!)
Thank you Tiffany for this awesome sequel! It was hard to say goodbye to them! I am so glad we know more about this family. I really loved King, a funny, arrogant, swoon character and the Soren/King story is <3

Oh, seriously, Ms. Reisz...what have you done to me? I'm ruined. Seriously and utterly ruined. In all of the best possible ways. Of course. Clean cup, clean cup, move down, move down. This was an erotic suspense that reaquaints us with an old friend... a very dear friend from the Original Sinners series. Kingsley Edge. Also known as Lieutenant Kingsley Boissonneault of the French secret military installation, la Legion.

In this book, a much younger King, is on a mission... is the cost of this mission worth what King wants above all else?

Luckily enough I was given one of these ARC beauties to review prior to release, however, I am now wishing I could become a permanent resident of The Château.

Gah, this book was hot. I mean, not that there is ever a doubt with a Tiffany Reisz book, but, damn. My kindle was smoking.

There were a couple of proofy things but it was an ARC, I am sure it has been fixed since I received my copy. Thank you, to NetGalley for this hot, spicy bit of naughty to brighten up my weekend, 4.5 stars.

If you need more Kingsley you need to read this book. Tiffany doesn’t fail to deliver us a story full of erotic suspense.

Kingsley is my favorite character in The Original Sinners series. In The Chateau, we get to see a young Kingsley at a turning point in his life. I loved all of the mystery and intrigue. Another great one from Tiffany Reisz!

The Chateau is my first book I have read by Tiffany Reisz! I now need to run back and start this series. I was blown away when I met Kingsley in this story. The depths and the journey we are taken into the BDSM world will keep you wanting to explore more. The story behind The Chateau kept me wanting to turn the next page so I can get just... MORE!

The characters were lively. They knew what they wanted and the exploration of their world has you right there too. I seriously feel like I am missing with out reading the others book. But I caught on with this story that I was able to read it as a standalone. I am sure Tiffany Reisz's fans are loving hard that she brings in a beloved character from what I see. I recommend this book!!

Just when I think I can't love Kingsley more, Tiffany Reisz delivers another great story! I'm a huge fan of the Original Sinners series and I couldn't wait to read more about my favorite Frenchman! This book follows a 24 year old Kingsley while he's on assignment for a super secret French intelligence agency. He's supposed to infiltrate a chateau that is run by women, where men are their willing slaves. The nephew of the Colonel has gone missing behind this chateau and Kingsley is supposed to go in and retrieve information about the Chateau's leader, known only as Madame, and check on the nephew, Leon to make sure he hasn't been brainwashed. Kingsley, they believe, is the perfect cover. However, things get clouded when Kingsley immediately falls for the erotic and powerful women in the Chateau.
I'll stop there to avoid spoilers, but this is Kingsley Edge we're talking about, so you know that kinky fun hijinks are guaranteed! I adored the secondary characters of Bernie and Polly!!! Polly was absolutely hilarious and had a great chemistry with Kingsley - I wanted more scenes between the two! One of my absolute favorite scenes included Kingsley and Jacques, a baby boy living in The Chateau. That scene is guaranteed to make your ovaries explode! (Or at least mine did! Seriously swooning for Kingsley!)
If you are a fan of The Original Sinners - this is a must read! If you are new to the series, you could absolutely still read this book and be able to go back and read the other novels. There are flashbacks and scenes that are recalled, but they are explained by Kingsley in a way that you wouldn't have to have read any of the books prior to this one. I recommend you do because they are amazing! And who doesn't love more Original Sinners? All the stars for The Chateau!!!!

4.5 stars. A story about Kingsley at age 24? No matter what age, he doesn’t disappoint or fail to entertain. But I especially loved seeing him delve deeper into understanding his own self. Kingsley has always fascinated me. He has that adventurous side, coupled with total sexiness, charm, French accent and dry humor with a hidden vulnerable side that has some very dark desires. There's this secret chateau that Kingsley is assigned to work his way into in order to uncover some answers for his boss. And let me just say that the overall premise of this chateau's existence was intriguing and incredible. Kingsley comes face to face with the fulfillment of fantasies that could only be dreamed of and he is constantly thinking about a certain someone who is never far from his mind. The mental manipulation is mastery at its best and watching Kingsley unravel with making choices is a different form of the usual pain that he takes pleasure in. Any fan of Kingsley will love this book and realize that it's a must-read.

I will read anything and everything that Tiffany Reisz writes. The Chateau was the deliciously dirty book about Kingsley you didn't know you needed and I think I will need about 5 more books about him. King is definitely my favorite character in the Original Sinners world and I loved this book!

If <B>Tiffany Reisz </b> does nothing else for the rest of her writing days but write subsequent novels from <I>The Original Sinners </i> series, I’d be more than happy. I’d be ecstatic! My love for this series is all a bit odd for me- I’m a reader that tends to get bored with extended series, of rolling back again and again with the same characters. But not with this series...not with this author. Each book she writes never feels forced or like she sat down and said, “How can I milk this successful series for a little more?” Each book is fresh, not feeling forced but often just a snippet of time in their lives but she can construct a story about it that is never dull or lagging in any way.

In <B><I>The Chateau, </b></I>we get more of my two favorite characters, Soren and Kingsley. They’re alone at their winter cabin in the woods when Soren asks Kingsley one question...

<blockquote><B><I>”Tell me a secret you’ve never told anyone before.”</blockquote></b></I>
And so Kingsley’s secret is told in his words. A secret about a chateau. A secret about a Madame. A secret about sadism, masochism and games. Truths...and lies.

The chateau is a place that has laws that draw from the sadomasochistic book <I>The Story of O, </i>where women dominate men and serve their every need. It will capture you from that first question asked by our favorite sadist priest to his long-time lover. I will forever eat up any chance to read of Kingsley’s quirky humor, switching ways and never-ending love story with Soren.

Don’t ever stop writing about this crew. Your readers will never tire, I promise you, Mistress Tiffany!

The Chateau is a thrilling erotic adventure that only Tiffany Reisz can deliver. As our beloved Kingsley at the tender age of 24, is asked to go on a mission for his secret French intelligence agency, we are all thrust into a wildly sexy adventure that I could not put down! But isn't the way it is with the author's work? Getting ridiculously wrapped up in her words and wanting it go on for forever.

The are numerous subtle twists and turns as Kingsley is desperate to figure out his dreams, always looking for the 'monster' who he hasn't seen in seven long years and who owns him heart and soul. The assignment at the Chateau with the mysterious Madame who runs her world when men serve women, is one that Kingsley cannot resist. I have to admit I was very intrigued myself. I love his charm and his smart wit as he goes toe to toe with the nameless Madame, surprisingly satisfied both mentally and physically. The entire story is like one big puzzle with The Chateau at the center of it all and I enjoyed seeing each piece, no matter how jagged, find its rightful place. The author truly has a gift at tying all loose ends together, presumably getting the reader to that "A-HA" moment with pride.

There is plenty to absorb and to savor in this latest Original Sinners book as we go back to the past when Kingsley was too smart for his own good, yet maintained a vulnerability that is nothing less than irresistible. Tiffany Reisz is such a pleasure to read as her words flow perfectly from start to finish. We are rewarded after this extremely pleasing mystery with a smile-inducing epilogue that will satisfy any Original Sinners fan.

5 solid stars!

The Chateau is the ninth book in the Original series, but can be read as a standalone. This book was brilliant, and I have not read the Original Sinners series, except for this one, but I plan to.

In this book we meet Kinsley Boissonnault, works for a secret French Intelligence agency. He has done many things, killed, lied, and whatever he is asked to do. However he now has been given a new different "off the record assignment".

Kinley is asked to go to The Chateau, a sex cult, unlike any other as it resembles the sado masochism book The Story of O. This sex club is ruled by Madam, a beautiful woman who trains men to be slaves to the women that live there. This club is called The Chateau, but it is not a club at all.

Kinsley is asked to go there because his Commanding officer's nephew is there, and he thinks it is a bad place where he is being held captive, so he wants Kinsley to go in find his nephew and bring him home.

What Kinsley finds there is totally unexpected and after being allowed to come there blindfolded, he spends a night there and finds out just a part of what is going on. Kinsley is drugged after part of the night is over and he did run into the nephew, but the nephew does not want to leave there!

I do not want to say too much but I am sure anyone who has read some or all of the Original Series will be seeing some of the characters again. This book was fast paced, and the plot weaves in and out so I did not know what to expect. There are a lot of wonderful well developed characters, some old and some new.

I gave this book 5 stars and I am going to read The Original Sinners books to see where some of these characters originated from!

4.25 stars

Sexy, witty, and revealing, this ninth installment to the Original Sinners series explores Kingsley's struggle to forget about the man who haunts his dreams.

Set in a time period following The Prince, Kingsley is now 24, living in France, and working for La Légion. His duties for the French Armed Forces vary greatly, but his newest assignment is definitely the most unexpected. With a Colonel’s nephew, Leon, "missing", he is tasked with finding him and returning him safely to his family.

The only problem?
Leon's believed to be with a "sex cult" at a place called The Chateau, location unknown. Kingsley to the rescue!!! Or not, lol. We all know Kingsley's affinity for all things related to sex, so it's clear how this mission will end with regards to the nephew.

What surprising in this story is how it explored Kingsley's internal struggle with being apart from Soren. The man invades his dreams in many forms - boy, wolf, monster - but in any form, Kingsley is powerless to fight against him. As we all know, he just enjoys the pain too much.

The woman who runs the Chateau, known only as Madame, plays a series of mind games with Kingsley, toying with information she uncovers or already knows. Like Soren, Madame is a sadist, and she uses Kingsley's weakness (Soren himself) against him. Cruel bitch.

"That's why you miss the pain. Because every time he hurt you, he was trying to tell you in the only way he could how much he loved you."

Was it all just a game to Madame, or did she actually want to help Kingsley admit his true feelings for Soren? I'm leaning towards the latter, but you never know with sadists. If you are a loyal fan of this series, then you already know how things play out with regards to Soren, so there's that. This book also has an interesting twist with a girl named Colette, adding an interesting morsel to Kingsley's backstory.

Original Sinner fans who love Kingsley and his quirky sense of humor and devilish ways, will enjoy this installment.

For devotees of the Original Sinners series this is a rather tame, albeit entertaining, side story featuring Kingsley Edge. I did like meeting King when he was still a little vulnerable though and I think, overall, it spoke to his psyche and character. There was sex...just not enough, creatively or in quantity.

It's Kingsley but not as you know him!

Let me explain. Yes, this is Kingsley Edge and it’s part of his overall story but this time as a 24-year-old when he’s still working for the French military. Sent on a mission to infiltrate a sex cult based in "The Chateau", he is to find his Captain’s nephew who has been taken by the cult leader. With the prospect of joining a sex cult, Kingsley jumps at the chance of this undercover mission.

Don't be misled by where the story is heading. This is a serious Kingsley, well almost anyway, who hasn’t yet developed his bravado or his quintessentially Kingsley ways but he is still a man looking for something and not knowing what after leaving Soren and his ministrations.

The Chateau and the story is loosely based around the infamous Story of O and frequently references this book throughout. The Chateau, the story, is possibly more sexually driven in a theoretical sense than the author’s other works which are led more by the characters than explicit scenes, to a certain degree. This story, once Kingsley enters The Chateau becomes dark and mysterious as he seeks to complete his mission but in doing so, he finds himself looking through a looking glass at his life, his beliefs, his wants and his wishes.

Headed by “Madame”, The Chateau is what it seems, until it isn’t. Rich in the historical tapestry of dominance and submission, the building screams sexual liberation and yet everything must be earned. No-one person belongs to another, bodies are shared, even babies have multiple guardians without knowledge of parentage, well on the father’s side anyway.

As expected Kingsley finds himself submitting to what he loves but this time he is dominated by women and not Soren. At first, you wonder where the story is heading, and what will happen to Kingsley but like all good fairy tales, the reality is a myth. Kingsley soon starts to become part of the twisted games that Madame plays on his body and mind and yet yearns for more… more punishment, more revelations, and even more games. As any true masochist would attest to, in order to become whole you first have to be broken, and Kingsley soon appreciates that for himself.

This story, although a standalone and semi-separated from the Sinner’s series, doesn’t have the same feel as the other books. Gone is most of the humour and light-hearted banter and in its place is something altogether deeper. The scenes in The Chateau certainly titillate, but they are also dark with an underlying tone of macabre. Whilst I enjoyed the story, I missed the warmth of the other Sinner’s books and also Kingsley’s banter. That said, this was definitely a suspenseful story with twists and turns throughout which provide readers with shock and awe towards the end of the book. You may even be left with questions upon finishing the story and you could be left with thoughts which will frequent your mind crying out to be answered, so be warned!

Personally, whilst this book can be read without having read the other Sinner’s stories, I feel that the story may become a little lost in translation until you can relate to the author’s style of writing and character development in her works in this area to date. The theme and the Story of O references will most certainly draw readers in but please, pleasure yourself by experiencing everything that Kingsley has to offer and enjoy more of him before or after The Chateau and become a true Sinner.

In The Chateau, Tiffany Reisz treats Original Sinners’ fans to her quintessential eroticism mixed in with surprising twists and turns that will keep readers guessing from the first page to the last. Kingsley is front and center in this prequel story. I loved getting a glimpse into Kingsley’s experiences and psyche at the age of twenty-four. Madame, a new secondary character, has her own brand of sadism that just might shock you. This erotic thriller is completely engaging. I could not put this book down. As Tiffany Reisz aptly described, The Chateau is “James Bond with blow jobs, BDSM, and an angst-ridden bisexual hero.” It is absolutely all those things wrapped into a neat little, delectable package. Just read it! You will not be disappointed.
