Allison's Review: 
 I now have a raging case of book depression after finishing The Mistress and the Original Sinners series. I didn't want it to end! 
 This series contained such an interesting cast if characters - some I absolutely love and others I'm still left with mixed feelings over. 
 I'll start with Nora the erotica author/Domme at the center of the series. I have sort of a love/hate relationship with Nora. She has tortured me throughout this whole series. In the end I was not really a happy camper. I wanted my own personal happiness for her. I can't envision her being happy in this life of hers - I feel like she constantly throws away true happiness and love, she just won't allow that for herself. Her obstinence is really annoying but her humor and attitude are her hallmark. 
 I read other reviews of this book and now disagree about comments made about Grace's purpose or relevance in this book. She had the ultimate purpose in The Mistress and I am WICKED pissed about it!!! 
 Kingsley......how do I love thee!!!! He is just so yummy. He has such an amazing story and history going back to his childhood. Definitely my fave character in this series!!!! 
 Like Wesley, I want to hate Soren. He just infuriates me a lot. I still have very mixed emotions about him. It's going to take a while for my emotions to settle and see where they land regarding him. 
 I just can't convey how much I loved this series. It was different than other "romance" novels I've read. There were lots of super duper steamy sex scenes but they really helped to further develop each character - they weren't just fluff and filler. All of these characters were so connected and intertwined with each other. These scenes deepened our understanding of each character and their needs. 
 Tiffany Reisz is amazing!!! This series was intelligently written and had so many layers - I can't praise this series enough. One of my favorites EVER!!
