Sweetest Sin

A Secret Baby, Dark Romance (Tempting Love, Book 1)

By: Nikki Ash

Narrated by: Marina Barrett, Walker Williams

From USA Today bestselling author Nikki Ash comes a dark, secret baby romance …

Dominick

Flying commercial is the bane of my existence.
Until the fiery redheaded flight attendant with emerald eyes falls into my lap.
The spark between us is instant. And from the moment her body crashes into mine, I know I need more than just a few hours in the sky with her.
The next time our paths cross, she tells me she’s headed out of the country, and I don’t hesitate to make sure I’m on her flight.
Our time together is filled with a passion I didn’t know existed. And for a moment, I allow myself to imagine what it would be like if our temporary arrangement turned into forever.
Until a call in the middle of the night pulls me back to reality, reminding me that with the enemies I have, letting her get too close would make her my greatest weakness—one I can’t afford.
Four years later, fate intervenes. Because she’s back, serving drinks on my private flight, and she’s apparently been keeping secrets.
With one phone call, I learn she’s been raising my son while pretending I don’t exist.
Now, with my enemies closing in and our secret out, they’re both in danger, and I’m done playing this game her way.
She might not trust me, but I’ll stop at nothing to keep them safe—even if I have to drag her kicking and screaming into my world.

Loved the Narration of this One

I always enjoy Nikki Ash's books, there isn't one that I don't like or love. She writes stories that will hold your interest and characters that are easy to love.

Sweetest Sin is a great title for this book. I liked these characters a lot. While reading this one it was easy to follow the storyline. This secret child, Mafia romance is lighter than some of the Mafia romances that I read. But still has a touch of dark to it. It will definitely keep you entertained.

I listened to the audio of this one and really loved it. Walker Williams and Marina Barrett both portrayed the characters perfectly. I was hooked from the first chapter just listening to this audio.

Mafia, secret baby, say less

The way I couldn't stop listening to this book. It's book one in a new series and I'm obsessed with Dominick and Peyton. The way they meet and have that pull towards each other. I really loved how protective Dominick is with both Peyton and Damien. I can't wait for the next book, so hoping it's Mateo's story. I'm already intrigued by him.

I loved the narrators! They did amazing portraying Dom and Peyton.

Secret Baby Mafia Romance

I definitely judged this book before giving it a real chance. I went in expecting a big age-gap romance, which wasn’t what I was craving at the time. But I was wrong and especially about the FMC. The second I realized that, the story completely pulled me in.

Dominick first meets Peyton on a flight when they literally collide into the same seat. She’s a redheaded flight attendant, he’s all business, and the physical chemistry is instant but they both move on. Or try to. Life (and fate) keeps pushing them back together, and the tension just simmers.

When Dom finally asks her out, Peyton shuts it down because her mom is sick. Instead, she offers him something wild: a 24-hour fling in the Dominican Republic. No promises. No expectations. Just them. And Dom goes for it. They spend an unforgettable day together… until Peyton wakes up alone. Cold bed. No Dom. She convinces herself she imagined him until she checks her camera roll.

Turns out, Dom disappeared because his father died. He’s now the head of his family’s mafia empire. When he eventually tries to find Peyton again, she tells him she’s with someone else.

Fast forward four years.

Dom is on a plane to Russia to retrieve his sister — and who’s his flight attendant? Peyton. The shock. The tension. The unresolved chemistry. Dom is ready to pick up where they left off, but Peyton shuts that door hard. The push and pull is intense… until Dom finds out Peyton has a son. His son. Game. Over. Peyton is officially Dom’s — and this mafia man is not letting his family go again.

I loved this book. The angst hit perfectly, the chemistry was scorching, and I’m already counting down until I can read the rest of the series.

Ready For Book 2!

This audiobook narrated by Marina Barrett and Walker Williams had me hanging on every word. Dominick is making the best of the life he was born into while trying to protect the people he loves. Peyton is such a strong caring character who is taking care of her sick mom after a heartbreak when she literally falls into Dominick's lap. She doesn't know who he is or who his family is, but she is drawn to him. Life happened and when they are reunited, he's not letting Peyton out of his life again. I need more and immediately when looking to see when the next one was coming out!

Without spoiling to much I loveeeeeee me a good hidden pregnancy and love that was never lost story! These 2 were destined to be together and fate showed that! I loved Doms love for Peyton… A super superior man who will back down to only his family or woman is sooo hot!
