A Season for Sin is a preview novella for Vicky Dreiling’s
upcoming Sinful Scoundrels series. A novella is typically a short story with
all the elements of a book including a beginning and an end. While A Season for Sin is short, it is a sample of what's to come from Ms. Dreiling’s upcoming spring release What a Wicked
Earl wants, it is a story in itself. The novella introduces us to Andrew
Carrington, Earl of Bellingham and his friends Colin Brockhurst, Earl of
Ravenshire and Harry Norcliffe, Viscount Evermore. It also introduces us to Laura Davenport, Lady
Chestfield, who has been a widow raising her step-son Justin for some
time. Justin, Viscount Chestfield is a
wild handful in need of a male’s presence, thus begins Laura’s novel solution
to this ever growing problem. Laura is
forced to make a deal with the devil himself, thus hooking the reader into
wanting to grab the entire book right in that moment.
I have loved all of the books penned by Ms. Dreiling and I’m
sure that What a Wicked Earl Wants will be no exception of the rule, as a rule
I am not a fan of novellas because of their briefness but this one is worthy of
your time. If you are a reader that cannot wait to get your hands on the next
of Vicky Dreiling’s writings then this is a great way to tie over you appetite.
The novella does have all of the wonderful elements that the author is known
for, witty dialogue, interesting characters, and sizzling romance. It is a
fantastic teaser, but a teaser it is.
4 for the briefness, 4 stars for the writing.

Hey Misty!
ReplyDeleteLoved the rev! Glad you liked the novella and now we have to wait for the book ;((((
The first 'gift' chapter after the novella, was really intriguing and totally put me in a mood for the full length of the book. I also think that these short ebooks are a great way to be introduced to the authors we would otherwise overlook in the avalanche of new authors out there...What are your thoughts on it?
