Another easy read by this author. It’s the third in the Slade brothers series, where the last playboy brother falls in love. It’s quite similar to the first two in the series. Enough spice, dilemmas and perfect narration!

Review📝

Definitely my new favorite in the series. They are all great, but this one struck me in a different way. The mmc was a true man's man—he was very protective. Right now, I would marry him. I really like the story's development and the extra layer of suspense. A truly amazing book, and I'm eagerly awaiting the next in the series!

I will choose a billionaire romance any day of the week! This one did not disappoint.
Brady had me swooning when he fell first for Lilly, the flight attendant.
Brady knew what he wanted and he perused Lilly hard while she pushed back at all his attempts after the classic one night stand.

I appreciated and enjoyed the mystery/stalker aspect that really switch things up from your average billionaire romance and kept me on the edge of my seat!
I also appreciated the no 3rd act breakup- she had already given him a hard time for long enough 😅

I did this one on audio and have no complaints for the narrators at all! 🥵

Thank you Netgalley for this ALC 🫶🏼

This was my first book by this author. The stalking storyline was much darker than I imagined and the reasons for why the police wasn’t involved didn’t make much sense. That storyline took up most of the second half of the book but I appreciated how the author used it to bring the leads closer and develop the romantic storyline. While the two leads had good chemistry and their scenes sizzled with spice, there were elements around their dynamic that made me uncomfortable - the MMC came across as quite controlling and given the FMC’s previous history of abusive relationships, it bothered me to see her end up in a situation with a power imbalance due to the MMC’s money and dominant personality. How the male characters referred to the women in the book felt quite objectifying at times. Other than that the writing was engaging and the flow was natural.

LOVEDDDD!! this was my first book by Marni, and it won't be my last! Thank you so much for my early review copy!

Thank you NetGalley for the Ark audio addition of “the Sinner”.

Having just finished the audio ARC of “The Sinner” by Marni Mann, I can confidently say that this book delivers on every level! From the moment the story kicks off, listeners are treated to a spicy smut fest that draws you in immediately. Ava Erickson and Tor Thom's narration brings Brady and Lily's dynamic to life with impeccable chemistry and emotion.

Lily is a deeply relatable character whose struggle with a dangerous ex adds layers of tension and urgency to the plot. Brady, despite his past as a "hit it and quit it" type, steps up as a strong, protective figure who is determined to keep Lily safe. Their relationship evolves amidst the chaos, creating a captivating interplay of passion and suspense.

The pacing of the story is spot-on, keeping you engaged from start to finish, with just the right amount of naughtiness to satisfy any romance fan. Mann expertly weaves together a thrilling adventure filled with danger, desire, and resilience.

If you’re looking for a heart-pounding romantic suspense that doesn't shy away from steamy moments, then “The Sinner” is the perfect read (or listen) for you. Don’t miss out on this exciting journey—I highly recommend diving in!

This book was one hot read from page one and stayed that way throughout the book. Brady and Lily's story was one heck of a roller coaster ride and dealt with some heavy issues.

Lily is a flight attendant working for the Dalton family when but ran into Brady before her job started with the Dalton's. What a surprise she had when she found him on one of her flights with the family after the pair shared one intense hot night together. In what was supposed to be one night quickly turning to more nights and more all together despite her being on the run from an ex that is down right scary.

Brady, working on the latest Spade hotel remodel and acquisition was only looking for one night but much to his surprise he could not get Lily out of his system. When he was least expecting it he found that he wanted more with her and would do anything to protect her from the ex that was after her.

This was a great read that moved along well. The characters had chemistry off the charts and were a good match for each other. I enjoyed the return of character from both the previous Spade Hotel books as well as the Dalton Brothers series and I look forward to seeing where this series will go next.

Get ready for spice from beginning to end. Not just spice but a fabulous story. Rich, hot man + beautiful woman with a dangerous past = perfection.

God I love Marni’s books so much. I was literally SWEATING in the first 10% okay??? Literally one of my fav spicy authors and does she know how to write her billionaire men. Wow. I had so much fun with Brady + Lily! What I really liked about this one was there was more of a suspenseful / protective plot which kept you entertained and it wasn’t all spice. The narrator’s Ava and Tor were a 10/10.

What to expect:
✨billionaire
✨flight attendant fmc
✨one night stand
✨the protector
✨suspense plot
✨touch her and die
✨dual pov
✨all the spice

5/5✨

Thank you NG & Dreamscape for this ALC!

When I was told ARCs were sent I ran to my emails so fast to download this book and email it to my Kindle. I am always excited when Marni releases a new book but this series? I’M OBSESSED. It’s the third book in the series. Books one and two were absolutely amazing and I have been so excited to read book three!

You’ll enjoy this book if you like these tropes…♡

❀ Billionaire Romance
❀ Touch Her & Die Vibes
❀ One Night Stand
❀ He Falls First
❀ Boy Obsessed
❀ Alpha Protector
❀ Romantic Suspense
❀ Undeniable Attraction
❀ Spicy AF
❀ White Knight Hero
❀ No Third Act


I went into this knowing it was going to be amazing. All of Marin’s books are. I haven’t read a book by her that I haven’t loved and obsessed about days after finishing it. If Marni writes it, I’ll read it. She’s an automatic one-click author for me!

Brady Spade, oh…This man? Gah..He’s one grumpy son of a bitch. He’s a rich and reformed playboy. He has a way of making women weak at the knees.


Lily was such a beautiful character. I loved her so much, but my heart broke for her so much. She has a traumatic past and fears that it could frighten Brady away. However, it’s the complete opposite, it makes him love her even more, and it makes him want to be with her even more. He wants to make her happy. She’s endured so much in her life and truly deserves to be happy and he wants to give her that happiness. He’s also extremely protective of her and will go to great lengths to make sure she is safe.


The connection, bond and chemistry between these two was intense and pure. It was hard not to get swept up in their love story. It was addictive and all-consuming.



True to Marni's form, I thought I had the entire plot figured out until she through in a few plot twists that left me sitting there with my jaw on the floor and my head spinning.

This book was extremely well written and had me obsessed from page one! I can’t wait to see what else Marni has up her sleeve!


5 STARS!

This is my second read from the author's work and this is was so different from the last one it read. I love when the same author gives so many different types of characters and plotline, it shows how versatile a single person can write so yeah I am impressed with this one too.
This one has insta love and a element of surprise but the ending seemed a little rushed which I was a little disappointed with, apart from that the characters were wonderfully written and executed too. Eagerly waiting for the next installment in this series.

4.5 stars - I was captivated from the very beginning!

A perfect example of why Marni Mann is an auto-buy author for me! I've enjoyed the Spade Hotel series immensely with each book. The love I have for Brady and Lily is overflowing and my heart is so happy after watching their story unfold.

The audiobook was brought beautifully to life by Ava Erickson and Tor Thom. The narration was superb and really brought the suspense factor to a whole new level. I could feel the steam coming off the pages and listened to it every chance I got.

** Billionaire
** He Falls First
** Stalker
** Suspense

I love when the MMC falls first and completely head over heels. Watching them form a genuine attachment with each other had me rooting for them at every turn. The suspense had me on the edge of my seat, trying to guess what would happen next. Marni Mann can write no wrong, pun intended!

Brady and Lily - they immediately hit it off when they first met. And it was h000t!!!
But both don't want a commitment and so they lost touch.

But OMG Brady!!! He definitely knows what he wants and goes after it.


We met the other characters of the Spade series too.

All in all a great final story of this series.

And the narrators did a great job.

Let me tell you, Marni Mann can write a dirty talking swoon worthy alpha man.

Brady Spade was planning on being an eternal bachelor, but all that changed when he met Lily. But that’s not all - this one brings in suspense too!

The queen of spice is back, y’all! With another scorching hot visit to the most sultry and delicious Spade hotel. Brady Spade, the grumpy mercurial oldest Spade is here with all his alpha smolder and broody energy. Turns out man falls hard and is all kinds of protective and swoony. I love a good heroine in danger storyline, and Lily having a psychotic crazy stalker gives this story a bit more danger and suspense, not to mention I will maim anyone who harms you flavor looks reaaaaallly good on a Spade brother. Brady is definitely my favorite brother of the series after seeing him fall so hard- he’s so grumpy but so in love with her, it’s just swoon worthy. And Lily’s backstory gave this story many emotional layers- her traumatic past and present are heavy. I loved watching her find safety and security with Brady, and even more I loved how thoughtful he was in ensuring her physical and emotional well being. Their chemistry had that normal Marni heat, but it was also really sweet and pure. Definitely my favorite of the series so far!

Thank you Netgalley and dreamscape media for the free ALC. My opinions are being left voluntarily. I loved this book had my heart pounding the entire time the suspense the heat the angst. Reform player is a favorite micro trope and will need to take a deeper dive on the authors backlist.

5/5☆

Oh my. Can I say this is my favorite read by Marni so far?! Brady is my new favorite hero by Marni. Sorry Declan. Lol ⁣
⁣
Brady was definitely grumpy, but the way he's so possessive and protective of Lily makes me melt. 🫠 The chemistry, the tension, the suspense, it was perfect!!! ⁣The spice is spicy as always!!!

Lily is a flight attendant, and they met on the flight when Brady was going to Edinburgh. It was definitely the right place at the right time for them. It can totally be fate also. When they landed in Edinburgh, they had an amazing night together. But due to Lily's past, she left with no information. 7 months later, they met again on a flight, and this time Brady is going to make Lily his.

I am so OBSESSED with them. Highly, highly recommend it.

Ava and Tor nailed this audiobook.

Solid addition to the Spade Hotel series!! I loved Brady’s confidence and desire to change Lily’s world. Only note: there’s a situation in this book that I wished had resolved differently and gave Lily more of a role. Still good!!!

3.5 stars

This one was nice and spicy! I really enjoyed the storyline and how everything happened! It was maybe a little Insta lovey for me, but not at the same time? The switch in Brady maybe happened too fast for me? I still really liked it and there’s a suspense element which I love, plus the narrators were excellent! So overall a great read!
