ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 21, 2023

It was supposed to be a one-time thing,
but I failed to divulge one little detail.

I was a virgin.

Bishop Bohanan was my first.
Now he’s demanding to be my one and only.

And he won’t take no for an answer.

•••••

REVIEW: SECRET SIN by Jill Ramsower is a stand alone, contemporary, adult, erotic, Mafia romance novella set in the author’s Byrne Brothers series. This is Ewan ‘Bishop’ Bohanan, and twenty year old, Pippa Revello’s story line. SECRET SIN can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story line is revealed where necessary.

NOTE: Some of the events of SECRET SIN cross over with, and run parallel to the events of book one SILENT VOWS.

Told from dual first person perspectives (Bishop and Pippa) SECRET SIN follows the building romance and relationship between Ewan ‘Bishop’ Bohanan, and twenty year old, Pippa Revello. Bishop Bohanan is Connor Reid’s (Silent Vows) second in command, and as such found himself closely watching our story line heroine. A night on the town with her cousin Noemi finds twenty year old Pippa a little too drunk and naïve to care, and flirting with Bishop leads to a one night stand. Bishop doesn’t like being ghosted, and makes it his mission to track down the woman with whom he will fall in love. As Pippa continues to push Bishop away, Bishop sets up a scenario that opens up Pippa’s eyes to the dangerous situations, out of her control. What ensues is the building but tempestuous relationship between Bishop and Pippa, as Bishop struggles to convince Pippa they belong together.

Pippa Revello wants and needs her independence but falling for Bishop meant going from her father into the arms of another man. Refusing to accept Bishop is her happily ever after, Pippa battles between head and heart, placing herself in the direct line of fire. Bishop Bohanan knows Pippa is the woman that calls to his heart but convincing Pippa may take more time than he could have ever imagined. The $ex scenes are erotic and intense but I dislike the use of certain four-letter words.

We are introduced to Pippa’s family: parents Gino and Lauretta Revello, siblings Gabe and Ari; Pippa’s high school friend Archer Worthington, as well as the return of Conner and Noemi (Silent Vows), and Bishop’s friend Callum.

SECRET SIN is a quick read; a novella length, age-gap, fast paced story focusing on the building relationship between a young, inexperienced woman, and the man with whom she will fall in love. The premise is captivating and entertaining; the romance is seductive and steamy; the characters are determined and charismatic.
