Wicked Lust - Book Review

By Sawyer Bennett

Synopsis

Cain Bonham is as big and bad as they come. After serving in the Marines, he’s returned home to Wyoming and now works as head of security at the exclusive sex club, The Wicked Horse. His job is to protect not only the patrons, but to zealously guard the secret existence of the club itself.

Sloane Preston is all about discovering secrets. As an undercover reporter, she’s determined to reveal the truth behind the facade of The Wicked Horse and expose it for all the world to see. She just didn’t count on her pathway into the club coming at the hands of one gorgeously scarred and bad ass bouncer who manages to easily possess her body and soul.

While Cain’s not looking for anyone to catch his eye, Sloane did it all the same, and he’s not bemoaning the fact that she’s as wickedly kinky as he is. As both get caught up in the sinful fantasies that only The Wicked Horse can create, secrets and loyalties will be tested and hearts will risk being broken.

Review

Cain is head of security at The Wicked Horse and The Silo, the secret sex club located at the back of the bar. As an employee, he gets free membership to the club, which is a perk he takes advantage of almost every day. He’s also a Fantasy Maker and is one of their most popular employees. Sloane is a reporter looking into a potential political scandal linked to the club and she plans on using Cain as her way in. But she’s not interested in fabricating a story or destroying the reputation of innocent people, and her physical and “professional” relationship with Cain quickly turns emotional and personal.

Cain. Wow. I mean, just WOW!!! He is one seriously hot and kinky guy. There’s a darkness inside him that makes all the good girls want to be bad. So very, very bad. He’s been hurt by a woman in his past and he vows that will never happen again. So when he started having feelings for Sloane, I knew how devastated he was going to be when he learned the truth. I didn’t like that Sloane was willing to sleep with Cain to get her story, but putting that aside, she really is a very nice woman. She has a strong sense of justice and owns up to her mistakes without making excuses. And I can’t fault a person who really did try to do the right thing.

This book was hot, hot, HOT!!! Definitely hotter, steamier and juicier than the first book. THIS is more what I was expecting to read in book one, WICKED FALL. It’s still a bit tame compared to some other sex club series I’ve read, but we’re certainly on our way to some really kinky shit. Bring it on. WICKED LUST is told in dual POVs and while it’s part of a series, it can be read as a stand-alone.
