Could not connect with the heroine. Josie was irritating to read. The angst was amped up throughout the story and the storyline had me struggling to finish the book.

Forgotten Sins is a nail-biting, in-your-face, page-turner that I loved. Government conspiracies and super soldiers isn't a new idea in the romantic suspense world, but I really liked the twist Zanetti put on it. Test tube babies, deadly military camps for children, secret missions in and out of our country. Not to mention crazy doctors and sadistic military officers. The plot is fast moving and keeps you engaged in the story.

The chemistry between Shane and Josie is blatant, no matter how many years or miles has separated them, it still burns strong. The building of the romance was paced well and felt real. Yes, there is an instant lust between then when they reunite and a past love. But Shane can't remember his past and everything Josie thought she knew is a lie. So really, they have to start over. Learn each other again.

If you've read my reviews in the past then you might have picked up on the little fact that I am hard to please in the heroine department, but Zanetti has created a well defined heroine here that won't get any complaints from me. ☺ Josie does an admirable job fighting her feelings for Shane, he isn't the man she thought he was and she can't trust him. I really liked her character. Yes, she did waffle back and forth due to trust and abandonment issues but I think she had just cause. As for Shane, he makes for a drool-worthy alpha male that will use any means necessary to protect those he calls his. He is the epitome of a romantic suspense hero.

Distrust, betrayal, conspiracies, secrets, danger and love - Rebecca Zanetti's Forgotten Sins' is rampant with all these and more! A well-written and well-rounded introduction to a wild new series that has my grabby hands twitching for more. Looking forward to the as-of-yet-untitled, book two, coming out at the end of the year.

If alpha males, sexy scenes and troubled heroines with a bit of back bone are your thing, then anything by Rebecca Zanetti is the author you MUST go and find.

Josie is in a verge of divorce when her ex, Shane showed up in the hospital with no memory from the time he left her until now. There has been no communication the past two years and now he has her as a family contact. Josie is obligated to take him in with the excuse to continue with the divorce, but deep inside she really would like to know why he left to begin with. Well, she will find out but not without a trip down memory lane. Everything about their past will come back strong including her feelings for him.

Oh my gosh, I love-love this couple. The tension between them was definitely explosive, and they had some pretty steamy scenes. With a man like Shane though, what can you expect? He has a military background, hot physique, and he is very, very alpha. And he is very determined to find out what happened to him, find out why he left Josie and win her back. Luckily, Josie still has feelings for him, and with a little bit of unfortunate events, sparks will definitely fly.

This is my first Zanetti read and will not be the last. Forgotten Sins has plenty of action, heartfelt scenes with a very sexy hero and I simply devoured it. I’m hoping the rest of the Sins Brothers will be just as good.

Shane has amnesia, Josie is his wife, separated though they are, and hitmen are after Josie. Whatever.

I’ve enjoyed Rebecca Zanetti’s books in the past, but this one…no. Just, no. I tried to get past the fact that Marine was not capitalized, but when she constantly called Marines “soldiers” I was done. So done. No, no, and fucking-no. If an author is going to write about Marines, hey, here’s an idea! Research actual Marines!

To top it off, I hate Shane. What an asshole. I also loathed Josie. What a spineless cunt nugget she is. Her only part in the book is to be led around by her dripping pussy because Shane is all that. Horrible characters seemingly written to cash in on the truly, horrendously written and loathsome 50 Shades crap. No thanks. So I DNF’d at 13% before I was forced to self-flagellate.
