A most unusual story. A feud between to families, which means, you don't cross bloodlines either. Get ready for a wild ride, so many ups and downs in this story, one twist after another. Cannot wait to start Guilty as Sin.

Cliffhanger Warning!
If you don’t like cliffhangers or like to wait until the whole series is out then don’t read this book just yet.
A captivating page turner that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Again Meghan has sucked me in. Her characters have come to life and held me hostage till the end. So many questions to be answered and what a plot twist at the end. I need book 2 like I need my next breath.

While I am no expert on Meghan March’s repertoire, this book is so different than the other books I’ve read by her. The suspense and intrigue, while still present, wasn’t as paramount in Richer than Sin. Instead, it focused on the microcosm of small-town dynamics and familial relationships. It was fascinating, and I can’t wait to see what is bubbling beneath the surface because I am sure we’ve only just scratched the surface on what’s going on in Gable.

There are few tropes I enjoy more than second-chance romances and forbidden romance is one of those. Combine those two, and I’m all in. While Richer than Sin could easily be compared to Romeo and Juliet, I feel like that comparison doesn’t do the story justice – it diminishes the extent of Whitney and Lincoln’s relationship. No, this book is more Hatfields and McCoys meets the Notebook. The animosity between the families was so intense and long-lived, it was almost more about carrying on tradition than it was about the actual feud. And Whitney and Lincoln’s relationship transcended the infatuation of two teenagers and bordered on something essential to their survival.

I can’t talk about this book and not mention perhaps the most important character in this book, the town of Gable itself. So much of what Whitney and Lincoln went through was because of the tense dynamics of living in a town where one family rules above all others. I loved how Ms. March used that quality to push the story forward and put the characters in situations that demanded more from them than they deserved.

While Richer than Sin didn’t have the same type of suspense as her other novels, it was no less intriguing. There are so many moving parts within the Riscoff and Gable families; it feels as if there will be no end to the things we uncover about them and their dubious connections. I have so many theories and speculations about what is going on with them, and I have no doubt my assumptions barely scratch the surface of what is boiling underneath their feud.

Meghan March continues to impress me with her engrossing storylines. Each time I open one of her books I’m swept up in these rich worlds with endless secrets and fascinating relationships. I appreciate how, while all of her books have a similar style, each one has a freshness and theme all its own. Her characters all have an innate strength, and I love that her heroines are never shrinking violets. Every time I read one of her series I’m caught up in all of it, but I think the Sin series is going to be at the top of my list of my favorites from her.

Ok. I despise books with cliffhangers. Most of the time they can be told in one book instead of two. I did not realize this book was a cliffhanger. I guess I should have since most of her books are. I’m going to be honest and say I didn’t really like this book. To me, it didn’t flow. I think all the jumping back and forth between past and present messed up the flow of this book. There was something else about this book I just didn’t like but I just can’t figure out what specifically. I will be honest and say I don’t care about the next book because this one just wasn’t interesting enough to make me buy the second one even with the ending.

“It’s not that easy. You don’t understand. You won. We lost.”
Lincoln’s fingers curved under my chin and redirected my gaze to his. “I wouldn’t say I’m winning right now. I’m looking at the only thing I want, and you’re telling me it’s impossible because of our last names. I don’t buy that. I will never buy that. Just give me a godda[r]ned chance. That’s all you have to do.”

The feud between the Riscoff and Gable family has spanned generations, it’s legendary, and everyone knows that a Riscoff and a Gable could never be together. Lincoln Riscoff may have been surprised to discover that the woman who he had become totally smitten with was a Gable but that didn’t stop him from pursuing Whitney with all that he had. And for a few amazing months, it seemed like he may have convinced her that their names didn’t matter either but it was only a matter of time before their families’ feud drove them apart. Lincoln thought all was lost when she ultimately married another man, but it’s 10 years later and Whitney is back and no longer married and Lincoln isn’t about to let her slip away again – no matter the consequences.

“We both know this isn’t going to end well. It can’t.”
His expression darkened. “We decide how this ends. Only us. And unless you tell me right now that I mean nothing to you, I’m not letting you go.”

Oh boy! Richer Than Sin is quite the introduction into this completely epic family saga! The bad blood between the Riscoffs and the Gables really is the stuff of legends. To me, this played out like some sweeping soap opera and I loved the familial drama just as much as I enjoyed the love story between Lincoln and Whitney. The timeline flips back and forth between the past and present and I liked seeing both sides of things, getting to see where they started compared to where things stand now. Things may be very different 10 years later but it’s no less complicated than it was back when they first met, in fact, it’s probably even more so now. Their situation is one of those ones where, right now, you really can’t see a good outcome for them but I’m excited that there are two more books coming to try to get them there! There are so many layers and things going on, it really makes for an engaging read. And then there was the cliffhanger! I did not expect that at all! But man, am I looking forward to getting my hands on the next book to see what on earth is going to happen next!!

“I wanted you from the very first {censored} second I saw you. I didn’t know your name. Didn’t give a da[r]n who you were. I still don’t. That’s what I’m trying to show you.” His breath brushed my ear, and my entire body heated instantly. “Just let me show you, Blue.”

The Hatfield and McCoy families aren’t the only ones with a long standing feud. In this modern age, the Riscoff and Gable’s know how to keep the animosity brewing. The two feuding families are caught up in a ‘war’ that has spanned a decade. A tension so great it has divided the town that both families reside within.

Lincoln Riscoff is slated to take over the family business. A life that is planned down to the exact expectation that is needed to preserve the Riscoff family legacy. There is nothing that isn’t at Lincoln’s beck and call. A perk of the Riscoff name. Until Lincoln crossed paths will a gal that would change his life. A fling that shouldn’t have happened, but Lincoln can’t stop thinking about. Little did Lincoln know that he was ‘chasing’ a Gable.

Family feuds meant nothing to Lincoln in the grand scheme of things. Only the ability to have Whitney by his side. What Lincoln didn’t count on was the rejection that Whitney would lay out in a very public way. Now – ten years have passed and the attraction is still there. Lincoln is determined to get his grip on the woman that slipped through his fingers so long ago.

What Lincoln always seems to forget, is the ramifications of that Riscoff and Gable feud.

Hold on to your seat…..Meghan March is getting ready to rock your world with Richer Than Sin!! This romance is nothing like you would expect, and everything that you didn’t realize you wanted in a novel.
Lincoln is the perfect specimen of male deliciousness. Accepting the hand that he has been dealt, Lincoln knows that once he takes over the helm of the Riscoff empire things will never be as carefree as they are now. Living up to family expectations is a ‘given’….well….until Whitney comes sneaking back into town.

Nothing about a trip back to her hometown is joyous for Whitney. With the trauma of her husband’s rock star life still haunting her, Whitney just needed to head back to her roots to find a way to pick up the pieces. Nothing in that plan involved coming face to face with the torment of her past. A scandal that still haunts Whitney today. While good intentions are always the start of Whitney’s plan, the aftermath of her drama always affects those around her.

The world isn’t ready to step into the feud between the Riscoff and Gable families….or are they? The drama, angst, and turmoil between these characters is hard to ignore. I have to admit, I was glued to my reader from start to finish. Yes…..it was that good!! Get ready for an addictive story that will pull you in with the unique plot and amazing characters. Bring on the next novel…..’cause this story is just heating up!!

Rating: 4.5 Stars

Lincoln Riscoff is a man whose past and present are on a collision course. Now we just have to see who survives. Whitney Gable is hoping to find something that she lost a long time ago. For me it seemed questionable if this was a story of second chances. When you read this newest story from Ms. March, you may feel the same way.

One thing I liked about Lincoln is his persistence. He wants to be both seen and heard. But on the flip side I disliked the fact that he was easily swayed when it came to a certain someone. Because Whitney seems to have a low esteem issue it seems like she’s always setting herself up to fail. This is when you find out who your true friends are.

Our author does a great job in creating a great b*tch of a character. You can almost feel her antagonism coming off the page. Her attitude needs a strong (cough) attitude adjustment. One secondary character I came to love was Commodore. He’s gruff, has an attitude, and at times will do something that gives me a chuckle. There was just something about him that made me think of my grandfather. Another secondary character I loved was Aunt Jackie. She’s a true mother hen and will do just about anything for her chicks. She put a smile on my face every time. One last secondary character that I came to love is Cricket. She’s a great friend to Whitney and I hope I get a chance to see more of these secondary characters as the series progresses.

I was pleased to see how the author goes about giving her readers the background on both Lincoln and Whitney – it’s like recalling a memory while not detracting from the present. Something else she’s good at is showing how awkward it is for someone who has been gone for so many years. It’s not always a case of like you never left.

Ms. March shows how an author can create a great story that has plenty of heat but still leave enough to the imagination. She knows just what will get me to continually turn the page. I kept thinking that I can’t wait to see where our author is taking this series and that’s so true after reading her ending. She left me saying “oh no you didn’t” but yes she did.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

I think Meghan March just gets me, she seriously always knows what kind of story, characters and romance I need at the moment and Richer Than Sin is exactly what I needed that I didn't know I was missing. As always I'm pulled into a angst smoking hot romance between two people that I yearn to have them together. I loved the emotional push and pull, the Romeo and Juliet family feud and the showing how all came to be from the past. I thought that nothing could beat her Savage Trilogy, but this one is already making its way to the top.

Richer Than Sin follows Whitney Gable who is coming back to her hometown Gable named after her family. However its not a welcome home type of thing, her cheating husband died after she said she was divorcing him and with him being a famous actor the media and fans are bashing her that its her fault. Coming home is the only way to get away from the worst of it, but her family ties make it hard for her with the rival family the Riscoff's owning the majority of the town. Her past with the CEO and heir of the Riscoff family Lincoln Riscoff makes it even worse for her, their chemistry and romance took a bad turn and now with her coming home its all back and then some.

I was a mess reading this story, Whitney's bad luck just killed me, I felt so bad for her, she just wanted a normal life, to get away from all the bad, but it kept following her. Lincoln didn't make it any easier, he wants her but boy does his family not want them together, they are all awful human being, aside from the grandfather and his sister. Lincoln is a good guy, a rebel and doesn't care about the family feud, but ignoring that doesn't make it go away and it causing chaos for Whitney.

In the end I'm not sure even what to think because that ending was killer!! Holy moly, I really hope its not true! I want these two to be happy and I'm rooting for a resolution as well as Lincoln to put his mother and brother in their place. Also can we have more of the grandfathers in the next book? Those two crack me up shooting at each other from their porches hahaha, love it. Anyways, if you enjoyed any of Meghan March's other trilogies this is a must to read!

A family feud......Hatfield and McCoys.....Romeo and Juliet.....A forbidden romance. Richer than Sin is a sassy, fast pace, quick witted love story full of angst and determination. From the first page to the last, I was completely absorbed in Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable’s explosive, volatile, lustful and passionate off and on again relationship. Told in past and present and dual POVs, we get to see how Whitney and Lincoln found each other, tried with each other and eventually lost one another.

The feud between families was infamous. The Riscoff’s flourished while the Gable’s floundered. And the hatred between the family soared until Lincoln and Whitney met on a faithful night that would forever change them. Even though they had a connection and a passionate spark, that feud between the families was enough to tear them apart and send Whitney into the arms of another man. But 10 yrs later, Whitney returns home alone. And this time, Lincoln is bound and determined to get what he lost, no matter what it takes. Whitney Gable belongs to Lincoln and this time she isn’t getting away.

The chase is addicting and passionate. Lincoln and his determination in getting Whitney to see what they are to each other is sexy and alluring. But Whitney is broken and believes that she brings chaos to her loved ones and the one she loves. But Lincoln knows otherwise and must prove to Whitney that he is the right and only man for her. It’s not gonna be easy with all the baggage from the past. But the past is the past and the future is now and Lincoln is bound and determined to make things right.

It’s gonna be a very bumpy ride for these two. There are secrets and lies to be uncovered between the two families. The ending was quite an eye opening statement.......AN OMG.....NO WAY.....kinda cliffhanger. It just makes me excited for the next book in the series. It won’t be an easy journey I can tell, but it will be one full of angst and explosive sexy times while trying to make Lincoln and Whitney work. And I’m sure lots more secrets will come to light.

A great start to a fun, passionate, sexy enemies to lovers, second chance romance. Bring on a Book 2!!

4 stars for - Richer Than Sin - the first book in a new trilogy by Meghan March. A second chance romance with a whole lot of angst and the intense emotional connection these forbidden lovers have from the moment they first meet. With a very Hatfield and McCoy like drama between the two predominant families in the town of Gable it's the younger generation of this town who are the ones being forced to suffer.
The Riscoff family proceeded to make money hand over fist in the timber industry and becoming the top company in the country cemented their wealth for the next few lifetimes. Commodore, the family patriarch, went about buying every single thing he possibly could within the town of Gable and branded it with the Riscoff name, all in an attempt to keep the feud between two families alive and well.
The Gable family whom the town was named after proceeded to fall on hard times and struggled for years to make ends meet. After many instances of fighting and accusations between the patriarchs the hatred and loathing between families was brought to a explosive head with all the town picking sides.
Lincoln Riscoff wasn't around to see all the petty drama unfold and only came home when summoned to do so by his grandfather, so meeting the goddess in the bar and spending the best night of his life with her was like an answer to his prayers except when he wakes up to hear her trying to sneak out.
Whitney Gable never hooks up with random guys but the one time she does, it ends up being the most incredible sex she's ever had. While getting water the next morning she looks at a picture on the wall and realizes who the man in the other room is and how big of a mistake she actually made...and takes off before he can find out exactly who she is.
I must admit the back and forth between past and present was a little aggravating at times but I can see why it needed to be done. Meghan never fails to bring the sexy and I have no doubt we are in for lots of spicy sex, intriguing mystery and all that angst too. I enjoyed the sexy, sinful start to this new series and can't wait to see what's in store for us in book two!

Well. Hmmmm

That ending.

My brain didn’t even go there on that one. Not. Even. Close.

But let’s rewind...for a second.

She’s done it again!

Ms. March has given me a whole bunch of characters I love and adore, as well as one I love to hate, and a whole bunch of questions I NEED answered, like, yesterday.

And, Yes. I have a list of questions and theories and only ONE was answered...kind of…

But outside of all the little secrets, intrigues going on in this one, I kinda sorta loved Lincoln and Whitney lots. I mean I had many moments where I wanted to reach out and shake them both, but they are so easy to like and want to get to know better. And the chemistry between the two of them whether it’s a simple glance or getting all kinds of down and dirty smexy? Nuclear! I swear I expected smoke to start coming out of my Kindle. But, boy do they have their work cut out for them if they want an HEA because there is all kinds of crazy going on around them!

This one is all kinds of twisty and turny and believe me when I say I have a list of questions & theories written down (No, I won’t share because that would spoil it all ) but believe me when I say I want answers to all of them as much as I want to see Lincoln and Whitney get their HEA, so I am totally looking forward to seeing how everything works itself out.

And, as always, I love me some well written secondary characters and Ms. March has outdone herself here. Whether I loved them, hated them or simply found them fascinating, they all drew me in and I want more of them all! Cricket, Jackie and Hunter are my hands down favs! The saying Karma is a Bishh definitely takes on a totally new meaning here and then there are the patriarchs of the Riscoff/Gable clans...to put it simply, they absolutely fascinate me!

So, if you’re love a Hatfield/McCoy style family feud and have a thing for star crossed lovers, then this is a definite must read!

Rich, sensuous and intriguing, this series is off to an “off the chain” start!!
Emotional, exciting, and explosive.
When I began to read this story, we meet Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable, and their initial meeting was pure unadulterated sexual tension and HOT lust lust lust!
However, I quickly learned that’s just part of this intricate complex and passionate story.
This is a story of family, love and devotion!
Their family history was the stuff of legends, everyone has an opinion and chooses sides.
The author does an incredible job keeping you on your toes guessing what’s going to happen next and where the story is heading!
What would you be willing to do for family?
The author flawlessly draws your attention in seeking answers about Lincoln and Whitney’s story. Their characters were fantastically created and because it’s told in alternating POV past and present, I got a better understanding of how their history evolved and developed.
They were so likable and relatable, I couldn’t brake away from the story as I needed to find out more about them. What added to their appeal was that despite the initial lust, they soon realize that sparks continue to fly between them but for very personal and emotional reasons. Their banter and chemistry was sharp, funny and just plain hot!
Yet beneath all that hotness and desire, there’s an underlying heaviness weighing in on them as they cautiously balance the fragile thread of family and loyalty.
The secondary characters and best friends of Whitney and Lincoln were equally important to the story.
The author gives us glimpses of the family secrets and forces affecting them.
What happened and why?
Can history change the course of their lives?
The cherry on top this already rich and delicious read... was the hotter than hell passion amongst the characters!!
Wowza!
My heart went through the ringer during the ups and downs of their story, and the ending left me with the best book hangover!
Hurry up book 2!
4.5 stars!

Meghan March has found herself a sweet little niche of cliffhanger packed trilogies. And when I say sweet, I mean cruel and torturous. She takes great pleasure in leaving her readers hanging in the balance, and I'm one hundred percent convinced she has one of those mugs that reads 'tears of my readers'. But I digress.

Richer Than Sin is the first release in the new Sin trilogy, and has a bit of a Hatfield and McCoy feel to it. Two families who have a long standing feud, neither of which is willing to budge on their hatred of one another. The Riscoff clan pretty much owns the entire town of Gable, while the Gables are clinging to the fact that they at least still own the name. Small victories, eh?

Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable meet one night at a bar outside of town, where he comes to her rescue when she finds herself on the wrong end of a bar fight. Sparks fly and Lincoln and Whitney decide to throw caution to the wind and spend the night together. No names are exchanged. Just lots o' pleasure. Fast forward to the next morning when she realizes who he is and bolts, because FAMILY FEUD. And I ain't talking the game show.

Anywho, the book is a combination of present time and the past, starting with him drunkenly objecting at her wedding ten years ago. The first chapter sucked me in, but honestly, I had a little trouble investing myself in the story until about halfway in. Once the story delved a little deeper into their backstory, I felt as if I had a better grip on the characters and what exactly drove the feud.

There is still a ton of story left, so I'm reserving full judgement until I get my hands on the rest of the story. But I will say there were some things in Richer Than Sin that I didn't love. I'm hoping those things will have further explanation and resolution as the trilogy progresses. I enjoyed it and am invested enough to pace impatiently for book two so I can see where she takes this feud, and more importantly, this couple.

Hopelessly in love with this book!

Riscoff, Gable....Gable, Riscoff!!

Totally has an element of the Romeo and Juliet vibe but with so much more!!!

Whitney, aka-Blue, is a Gable through and through. Her family name equals nothing but loss and it’s all because of the Riscoff family.

The Riscoff family rules the world in the town of Gable-but what happens when a king takes notice of a servant? I’ll tell you what.............EVERYTHING!

It’s a chance meeting, identities unknown, and a past and present that makes this story undeniably addictive.

Blue is beautiful, smart and branded with the Gable name. She tries to escape, only to have her world turned upside down and then tossed right back into the town (and the man) that is completely forbidden and no matter how hard she tries to forget, unforgettable.

Lincoln, is a Riscoff. He sees what he wants...and he gets it. When his sights are set on Blue, all hell breaks loose. The timing shouldn’t be the most awful and perfect moment written....

But it is!!!!! AND it makes this book what it is......PERFECTION!!!

Completely in love with Lincoln and the man that he is in this story. Can totally relate with the struggles and torment that Blue has been and is going through. The right, the wrong, the need, the want. Ahhhhhh!

You feel it all in every page and I couldn’t get enough!

I would highly, HIGHLY recommend this book! This author just keeps on topping herself with a better read. Each. And. Every. Time! She has a magic about her that introduces me to characters that I fall in love with and think they are it for me...and then brings in another set that makes me fall harder. That said, I never forget those that came before them.

A great quality in an author, right?

Go get this book and have no fear, the wait for the other two aren’t far away. We’re talking mere weeks.

Go get it!! You will not be disappointed!

Lincoln Riscoff is the heir to his family's business empire, their fortune and also their generations long feud with the Gable family. Falling for the one woman he could never have wasn't part of his plan, but now that he has had her, he isn't going to let her go so easily...

“Riscoffs were evil, money-grubbing, dishonest, no-good cheats—and I was going to have an affair with the heir to the empire.”
Whitney Gable has no love for the Riscoff family. The bad blood between them always seems to leave her family suffering the most, and she wants nothing to do with causing any more problems for the people she loves. And while Lincoln is nothing if not persistent, she just happens to be the one thing that his money can't buy...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sexy and forbidden, these modern day star crossed lovers have been apart for ten long years, since the day that Whitney married someone else. But the attraction that once burned white hot between them hasn't extinguished one bit...

All Whitney wants in life is to escape the town of Gable and never come back. When she has a fling with the one man in town who she absolutely could never be with, she tries her hardest to keep her distance from him. But, Lincoln has other plans. And when her life implodes ten years later, she returns to the town she wanted to leave so badly, and the man who still isn't for her...

Lincoln doesn't care about his family's objection to being with Whitney, but as the heir to a fortune and the golden boy of Gable, rumors that could ruin Whitney's life don't tend to affect him in the same way. He wants to make it work, but she wants to keep far, far away from him and his treacherous family.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You. Guys. I admit it, for all of the amazing books by this author out there, this was my first read of hers, and it was even better than I expected.

Whitney and Lincoln's chemistry and their impossible situation had me hooked from the very first sentence of the book. Their love affair, past and present is incredibly sexy and utterly unforgettable. I truly adored these characters, who seem to still have some of their secrets still held very close to their chest. And then, there's the cliffhanger that leaves you furiously checking for the next release date (Sept 18). Trust me, you will not want to miss this trilogy.

I received a complimentary copy of this book for my honest and unbiased review.

Mind Blown! Richer Than Sin is EXACTLY the book I have been looking for. The plot is fast paced and addictive. The story is fresh and unique. The characters grab a hold of you and just totally consume you. This isn’t just a second chance romance. No, this story is so much more. Filled with secrets, lies, money and power, this story will be sure to knock you off your feet and keeping you begging for more….

Richer Than Sin was all that and then some. The Riscoff and Gable’s take family fueds to a whole other level. The hate and greed is off the charts and will leave you with so many burning questions…Why do they hate each other so much? What has kept this feud going for sooooo long. And once you add a delicious, unforgettable forbidden romance, all bets are off. Richer Than Sin is like a modern day soap opera. My most guilty pleasure. And I just couldn’t get enough.

Richer Than Sin had everything you could possibly ask for. From a deep seeded hate, to lies and family expectations, to a Romeo and Juliet style romance. I was hooked on Richer Than Sin from the very first page and found it impossible to put down. This story and it’s writing is absolute perfection and will keep you on your toes right until the very end. And speaking of endings!!! Boy does this story have a good one. I’ve got a million and one questions and I am just dying for the answers. This ending was so delicious and so unexpected!! I certainly didn’t see it coming. I wish I had book 2 right now!! My advice to you, go into this story blind. Allow yourself to get lost in the characters just as I did and enjoy the ride….

Richer Than Sin gives the Sin Series one heck of an amazing start and I for one could not be more excited to see what awaits us next!

This book is an absolutely mind-blowing, jaw-dropping beginning to a brand-new trilogy by Meghan March. As the past and present are weaved in a tumultuous and heart-wrenching tale, the author introduces us to the lives of Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable. Two people who were once in love despite every reason not to be, and every one of those reasons tore them down in a dramatic and heartbreaking way that left them broken and alone. But now Whitney is back, but being back with the cards once again, or maybe even still, stacked against you in life and love leaves her in a hopeless situation. The likes of which she only gets a reprieve from in the form of Lincoln Riscoff, which is the utmost of ironies, considering their attraction and last names are what has her floundering to begin with.

This book left me breathless, with my heart pounding a mile a minute. Lincoln is way too sexy for words, and one-hundred-percent swoon-worthy. Whitney, she needs the biggest hug and a drama-free night with lots of chocolate, stat. That poor girl, I connect with her and feel for her. IT's almost as if she's has a perpetual case of the Mondays.

I loved seeing Lincoln and Whitney fall in love, and then back in the present where the possibilities of what could be and the mysteries of what happened are unearthed little by little. Richer Than Sin is expertly crafted with the swapping timelines, and the unbelievably engaging storyline that I devoured far too fast. All I can say is my jaw is still firmly planted on the ground, and will most likely remain there until I can get my grabby reader hands on Whitney and Lincoln's second book. Guilty As Sin has my name written all over and I can't wait!

Happy Reading!

Lincoln Riscoff had a crush on Whitney Gable from the moment he saw her. She was different than the other women he has met. The only ‘problem’ is that she’s a Gable. The Gable family and the Riscoff family can’t stand each other for several generations. But Lincoln wants Whitney so bad that he doesn’t care that she is a Gable. Whitney is more hesitant than him to give him a chance. She will leave town one day and only return many years later.

I adored Whitney and Lincoln. Whitney Gable is feisty, strong, independent, determined and a little lost. She needed to be somewhere else to process some things and she decides to move back home. She’s happy to see her aunt and cousin again. Whitney isn’t sure what to do when she sees Lincoln again. Her feelings for him are still there, but she isn’t ready for a new relationship and especially not with a Riscoff.

Lincoln Riscoff is rich, hardworking, protective, determined and strong. When he wants something, he will do anything to get it. I loved it that he doesn’t care that Whitney is a Gable and how much he wants her in the past and present. Lincoln doesn’t let Whitney go without a fight and he will do anything to get a chance with her. He has never forgotten her.

Richer Than Sin is an incredible start of the Sin trilogy. It was addictive, sexy and unique. That cliffhanger makes me need the next one right now! I need to know what happens next and to know more about Whitney and Lincoln. I was hooked after reading the prologue. I only needed those few pages to want to know the history and future of Whitney and Lincoln as a couple. There were some flashbacks and I loved those. They made me understand the attraction between Whitney and Lincoln in the present. They are off the charts hot together! I can’t wait for more!

What a fantastic start to Meghan's new trilogy!!! I was really looking forward to this, and boy it does not disappoint - lots of drama, angst, passion, family feuds, the forbidden element, second chance romance, whew, and its fast paced with lots going on and more twists and turns in the plot than you can shake a stick at - I was addicted within the first few pages and couldn't put it down!!!

Lincoln Riscoff comes from a very rich family and he stands to inherit the lot from his family, he only has to do his job within the family business and preserve and protect the family legacy, and of course marry and produce a family heir when the time is right. He has the whole world to pick from as long as it not a member of the Gable family, who the Riscoff's have a long standing family feud going with.

10 yrs ago he fell for a dark haired blue eyed beauty, neither of them knowing who the other was, but their connection just clicked and their chemistry was off the charts. Except she turns out to be Whitney Gable, and their secret affair could blow their families apart. In the end she ends up leaving town married to someone else, but now 10 yrs have passed and she is back in the hometown, minus the ring, and Lincoln wants a second pop at the forbidden fruit he let get away once.

Told from dual POV's between the past and present, its a heck of a story that will leave you gasping for more. There is so much going on in the story line and OMG what a cliff hanger this book ends on, so be warned!! I loved the characters and the family feuding, their connection is sizzling, so much you can feel it even after 10 yrs apart!! A brilliant start to the trilogy, can't wait for book 2!!

The Capulets and the Montagues

The Hatfields and the McCoys

The Riscoffs and the Gables

Generational family feuds have always existed, perpetuating from old grudges and they’re carried forward through bloodlines because that’s what’s expected. These opposing families do not live harmoniously and any chance they get to hurt and quite possibly destroy their enemies is taken.

The first feud, albeit a fictitious one, as well as the second dispute, ended in devastation and loss, and based on how much hatred and bad blood exist between the Riscoffs and the Gables in Richer Than Sin, the first book of Meghan March’s Sin Trilogy, the only conclusion that can be made is that Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable’s relationship will only lead to further heartbreak and the continuation of a feud that might very well destroy everyone involved.

I am already enthralled with March’s newest world and characters because through the dual perspectives presented as well as the seamless transition between the past and the present, she has clearly illustrated a forbidden love that still exists, despite the conflict that surrounds it, the decade that has passed since Lincoln and Whitney first gave into their feelings for one another, and the public humiliation that they both have faced due to their illogical decisions.

As readers learn just how deep the feud between the Riscoffs and the Gables goes, how manipulative the older generation of Riscoffs are, and how drastically different the families’ finances and living conditions appear, what’s most clear is that the Gables have nothing more to lose while the Riscoffs are constantly working to secure their wealth and their dominance of the town of Gable as well as the Gables who still live there.

The connection and chemistry between Lincoln and Whitney is evident from their first encounter and while both of them have tried to forget the other one, when Whitney returns home, those old feelings resurface and they’re even stronger despite the amount of time lost and the obstacles that are still in their way. But, here’s where things get a bit dicey, leaving readers with unanswered questions when book one ends because the bombshell that’s revealed is not only something that could upend any progress made between Lincoln and Whitney, but it’s also another reason for the families’ hatred to continue and that can’t mean anything positive for Lincoln and Whitney.

“It’s not that easy. You don’t understand. You won. We lost.”
Lincoln’s fingers curved under my chin and redirected my gaze to his. “I wouldn’t say I’m winning right now. I’m looking at the only thing I want, and you’re telling me it’s impossible because of our last names. I don’t buy that. I will never buy that. Just give me a godda[r]ned chance. That’s all you have to do.”

The feud between the Riscoff and Gable family has spanned generations, it’s legendary, and everyone knows that a Riscoff and a Gable could never be together. Lincoln Riscoff may have been surprised to discover that the woman who he had become totally smitten with was a Gable but that didn’t stop him from pursuing Whitney with all that he had. And for a few amazing months, it seemed like he may have convinced her that their names didn’t matter either but it was only a matter of time before their families’ feud drove them apart. Lincoln thought all was lost when she ultimately married another man, but it’s 10 years later and Whitney is back and no longer married and Lincoln isn’t about to let her slip away again – no matter the consequences.

“We both know this isn’t going to end well. It can’t.”
His expression darkened. “We decide how this ends. Only us. And unless you tell me right now that I mean nothing to you, I’m not letting you go.”

Oh boy! Richer Than Sin is quite the introduction into this completely epic family saga! The bad blood between the Riscoffs and the Gables really is the stuff of legends. To me, this played out like some sweeping soap opera and I loved the familial drama just as much as I enjoyed the love story between Lincoln and Whitney. The timeline flips back and forth between the past and present and I liked seeing both sides of things, getting to see where they started compared to where things stand now. Things may be very different 10 years later but it’s no less complicated than it was back when they first met, in fact, it’s probably even more so now. Their situation is one of those ones where, right now, you really can’t see a good outcome for them but I’m excited that there are two more books coming to try to get them there! There are so many layers and things going on, it really makes for an engaging read. And then there was the cliffhanger! I did not expect that at all! But man, am I looking forward to getting my hands on the next book to see what on earth is going to happen next!!

“I wanted you from the very first {censored} second I saw you. I didn’t know your name. Didn’t give a da[r]n who you were. I still don’t. That’s what I’m trying to show you.” His breath brushed my ear, and my entire body heated instantly. “Just let me show you, Blue.”

The Hatfield and McCoy families aren’t the only ones with a long standing feud. In this modern age, the Riscoff and Gable’s know how to keep the animosity brewing. The two feuding families are caught up in a ‘war’ that has spanned a decade. A tension so great it has divided the town that both families reside within.

Lincoln Riscoff is slated to take over the family business. A life that is planned down to the exact expectation that is needed to preserve the Riscoff family legacy. There is nothing that isn’t at Lincoln’s beck and call. A perk of the Riscoff name. Until Lincoln crossed paths will a gal that would change his life. A fling that shouldn’t have happened, but Lincoln can’t stop thinking about. Little did Lincoln know that he was ‘chasing’ a Gable.

Family feuds meant nothing to Lincoln in the grand scheme of things. Only the ability to have Whitney by his side. What Lincoln didn’t count on was the rejection that Whitney would lay out in a very public way. Now – ten years have passed and the attraction is still there. Lincoln is determined to get his grip on the woman that slipped through his fingers so long ago.

What Lincoln always seems to forget, is the ramifications of that Riscoff and Gable feud.

Hold on to your seat…..Meghan March is getting ready to rock your world with Richer Than Sin!! This romance is nothing like you would expect, and everything that you didn’t realize you wanted in a novel.
Lincoln is the perfect specimen of male deliciousness. Accepting the hand that he has been dealt, Lincoln knows that once he takes over the helm of the Riscoff empire things will never be as carefree as they are now. Living up to family expectations is a ‘given’….well….until Whitney comes sneaking back into town.

Nothing about a trip back to her hometown is joyous for Whitney. With the trauma of her husband’s rock star life still haunting her, Whitney just needed to head back to her roots to find a way to pick up the pieces. Nothing in that plan involved coming face to face with the torment of her past. A scandal that still haunts Whitney today. While good intentions are always the start of Whitney’s plan, the aftermath of her drama always affects those around her.

The world isn’t ready to step into the feud between the Riscoff and Gable families….or are they? The drama, angst, and turmoil between these characters is hard to ignore. I have to admit, I was glued to my reader from start to finish. Yes…..it was that good!! Get ready for an addictive story that will pull you in with the unique plot and amazing characters. Bring on the next novel…..’cause this story is just heating up!!

Rating: 4.5 Stars

Lincoln Riscoff is a man whose past and present are on a collision course. Now we just have to see who survives. Whitney Gable is hoping to find something that she lost a long time ago. For me it seemed questionable if this was a story of second chances. When you read this newest story from Ms. March, you may feel the same way.

One thing I liked about Lincoln is his persistence. He wants to be both seen and heard. But on the flip side I disliked the fact that he was easily swayed when it came to a certain someone. Because Whitney seems to have a low esteem issue it seems like she’s always setting herself up to fail. This is when you find out who your true friends are.

Our author does a great job in creating a great b*tch of a character. You can almost feel her antagonism coming off the page. Her attitude needs a strong (cough) attitude adjustment. One secondary character I came to love was Commodore. He’s gruff, has an attitude, and at times will do something that gives me a chuckle. There was just something about him that made me think of my grandfather. Another secondary character I loved was Aunt Jackie. She’s a true mother hen and will do just about anything for her chicks. She put a smile on my face every time. One last secondary character that I came to love is Cricket. She’s a great friend to Whitney and I hope I get a chance to see more of these secondary characters as the series progresses.

I was pleased to see how the author goes about giving her readers the background on both Lincoln and Whitney – it’s like recalling a memory while not detracting from the present. Something else she’s good at is showing how awkward it is for someone who has been gone for so many years. It’s not always a case of like you never left.

Ms. March shows how an author can create a great story that has plenty of heat but still leave enough to the imagination. She knows just what will get me to continually turn the page. I kept thinking that I can’t wait to see where our author is taking this series and that’s so true after reading her ending. She left me saying “oh no you didn’t” but yes she did.

I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book.

I think Meghan March just gets me, she seriously always knows what kind of story, characters and romance I need at the moment and Richer Than Sin is exactly what I needed that I didn't know I was missing. As always I'm pulled into a angst smoking hot romance between two people that I yearn to have them together. I loved the emotional push and pull, the Romeo and Juliet family feud and the showing how all came to be from the past. I thought that nothing could beat her Savage Trilogy, but this one is already making its way to the top.

Richer Than Sin follows Whitney Gable who is coming back to her hometown Gable named after her family. However its not a welcome home type of thing, her cheating husband died after she said she was divorcing him and with him being a famous actor the media and fans are bashing her that its her fault. Coming home is the only way to get away from the worst of it, but her family ties make it hard for her with the rival family the Riscoff's owning the majority of the town. Her past with the CEO and heir of the Riscoff family Lincoln Riscoff makes it even worse for her, their chemistry and romance took a bad turn and now with her coming home its all back and then some.

I was a mess reading this story, Whitney's bad luck just killed me, I felt so bad for her, she just wanted a normal life, to get away from all the bad, but it kept following her. Lincoln didn't make it any easier, he wants her but boy does his family not want them together, they are all awful human being, aside from the grandfather and his sister. Lincoln is a good guy, a rebel and doesn't care about the family feud, but ignoring that doesn't make it go away and it causing chaos for Whitney.

In the end I'm not sure even what to think because that ending was killer!! Holy moly, I really hope its not true! I want these two to be happy and I'm rooting for a resolution as well as Lincoln to put his mother and brother in their place. Also can we have more of the grandfathers in the next book? Those two crack me up shooting at each other from their porches hahaha, love it. Anyways, if you enjoyed any of Meghan March's other trilogies this is a must to read!

A family feud......Hatfield and McCoys.....Romeo and Juliet.....A forbidden romance. Richer than Sin is a sassy, fast pace, quick witted love story full of angst and determination. From the first page to the last, I was completely absorbed in Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable’s explosive, volatile, lustful and passionate off and on again relationship. Told in past and present and dual POVs, we get to see how Whitney and Lincoln found each other, tried with each other and eventually lost one another.

The feud between families was infamous. The Riscoff’s flourished while the Gable’s floundered. And the hatred between the family soared until Lincoln and Whitney met on a faithful night that would forever change them. Even though they had a connection and a passionate spark, that feud between the families was enough to tear them apart and send Whitney into the arms of another man. But 10 yrs later, Whitney returns home alone. And this time, Lincoln is bound and determined to get what he lost, no matter what it takes. Whitney Gable belongs to Lincoln and this time she isn’t getting away.

The chase is addicting and passionate. Lincoln and his determination in getting Whitney to see what they are to each other is sexy and alluring. But Whitney is broken and believes that she brings chaos to her loved ones and the one she loves. But Lincoln knows otherwise and must prove to Whitney that he is the right and only man for her. It’s not gonna be easy with all the baggage from the past. But the past is the past and the future is now and Lincoln is bound and determined to make things right.

It’s gonna be a very bumpy ride for these two. There are secrets and lies to be uncovered between the two families. The ending was quite an eye opening statement.......AN OMG.....NO WAY.....kinda cliffhanger. It just makes me excited for the next book in the series. It won’t be an easy journey I can tell, but it will be one full of angst and explosive sexy times while trying to make Lincoln and Whitney work. And I’m sure lots more secrets will come to light.

A great start to a fun, passionate, sexy enemies to lovers, second chance romance. Bring on a Book 2!!

4 stars for - Richer Than Sin - the first book in a new trilogy by Meghan March. A second chance romance with a whole lot of angst and the intense emotional connection these forbidden lovers have from the moment they first meet. With a very Hatfield and McCoy like drama between the two predominant families in the town of Gable it's the younger generation of this town who are the ones being forced to suffer.
The Riscoff family proceeded to make money hand over fist in the timber industry and becoming the top company in the country cemented their wealth for the next few lifetimes. Commodore, the family patriarch, went about buying every single thing he possibly could within the town of Gable and branded it with the Riscoff name, all in an attempt to keep the feud between two families alive and well.
The Gable family whom the town was named after proceeded to fall on hard times and struggled for years to make ends meet. After many instances of fighting and accusations between the patriarchs the hatred and loathing between families was brought to a explosive head with all the town picking sides.
Lincoln Riscoff wasn't around to see all the petty drama unfold and only came home when summoned to do so by his grandfather, so meeting the goddess in the bar and spending the best night of his life with her was like an answer to his prayers except when he wakes up to hear her trying to sneak out.
Whitney Gable never hooks up with random guys but the one time she does, it ends up being the most incredible sex she's ever had. While getting water the next morning she looks at a picture on the wall and realizes who the man in the other room is and how big of a mistake she actually made...and takes off before he can find out exactly who she is.
I must admit the back and forth between past and present was a little aggravating at times but I can see why it needed to be done. Meghan never fails to bring the sexy and I have no doubt we are in for lots of spicy sex, intriguing mystery and all that angst too. I enjoyed the sexy, sinful start to this new series and can't wait to see what's in store for us in book two!

shelly
Well. Hmmmm

That ending.

My brain didn’t even go there on that one. Not. Even. Close.

But let’s rewind...for a second.

She’s done it again!

Ms. March has given me a whole bunch of characters I love and adore, as well as one I love to hate, and a whole bunch of questions I NEED answered, like, yesterday.

And, Yes. I have a list of questions and theories and only ONE was answered...kind of…

But outside of all the little secrets, intrigues going on in this one, I kinda sorta loved Lincoln and Whitney lots. I mean I had many moments where I wanted to reach out and shake them both, but they are so easy to like and want to get to know better. And the chemistry between the two of them whether it’s a simple glance or getting all kinds of down and dirty smexy? Nuclear! I swear I expected smoke to start coming out of my Kindle. But, boy do they have their work cut out for them if they want an HEA because there is all kinds of crazy going on around them!

This one is all kinds of twisty and turny and believe me when I say I have a list of questions & theories written down (No, I won’t share because that would spoil it all ) but believe me when I say I want answers to all of them as much as I want to see Lincoln and Whitney get their HEA, so I am totally looking forward to seeing how everything works itself out.

And, as always, I love me some well written secondary characters and Ms. March has outdone herself here. Whether I loved them, hated them or simply found them fascinating, they all drew me in and I want more of them all! Cricket, Jackie and Hunter are my hands down favs! The saying Karma is a Bishh definitely takes on a totally new meaning here and then there are the patriarchs of the Riscoff/Gable clans...to put it simply, they absolutely fascinate me!

So, if you’re love a Hatfield/McCoy style family feud and have a thing for star crossed lovers, then this is a definite must read!

Rich, sensuous and intriguing, this series is off to an “off the chain” start!!
Emotional, exciting, and explosive.
When I began to read this story, we meet Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable, and their initial meeting was pure unadulterated sexual tension and HOT lust lust lust!
However, I quickly learned that’s just part of this intricate complex and passionate story.
This is a story of family, love and devotion!
Their family history was the stuff of legends, everyone has an opinion and chooses sides.
The author does an incredible job keeping you on your toes guessing what’s going to happen next and where the story is heading!
What would you be willing to do for family?
The author flawlessly draws your attention in seeking answers about Lincoln and Whitney’s story. Their characters were fantastically created and because it’s told in alternating POV past and present, I got a better understanding of how their history evolved and developed.
They were so likable and relatable, I couldn’t brake away from the story as I needed to find out more about them. What added to their appeal was that despite the initial lust, they soon realize that sparks continue to fly between them but for very personal and emotional reasons. Their banter and chemistry was sharp, funny and just plain hot!
Yet beneath all that hotness and desire, there’s an underlying heaviness weighing in on them as they cautiously balance the fragile thread of family and loyalty.
The secondary characters and best friends of Whitney and Lincoln were equally important to the story.
The author gives us glimpses of the family secrets and forces affecting them.
What happened and why?
Can history change the course of their lives?
The cherry on top this already rich and delicious read... was the hotter than hell passion amongst the characters!!
Wowza!
My heart went through the ringer during the ups and downs of their story, and the ending left me with the best book hangover!
Hurry up book 2!
4.5 stars!

They met in a bar, Lincoln ends up protecting her from a drunk and she is sooo smitten by Lincoln she decides to go home with him. They hit it off in the bar and no one has ever protected her from anyone or anything. She is not this kind of girl, going home with just any guy or even have a one night stand. But she needs to forget and she wants to have fun, so she just goes with it. And then there is the leaving in the morning when she discovers who he really is. HE IS A RISCOFF!!!!!

Meghan March has found herself a sweet little niche of cliffhanger packed trilogies. And when I say sweet, I mean cruel and torturous. She takes great pleasure in leaving her readers hanging in the balance, and I'm one hundred percent convinced she has one of those mugs that reads 'tears of my readers'. But I digress.

Richer Than Sin is the first release in the new Sin trilogy, and has a bit of a Hatfield and McCoy feel to it. Two families who have a long standing feud, neither of which is willing to budge on their hatred of one another. The Riscoff clan pretty much owns the entire town of Gable, while the Gables are clinging to the fact that they at least still own the name. Small victories, eh?

Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable meet one night at a bar outside of town, where he comes to her rescue when she finds herself on the wrong end of a bar fight. Sparks fly and Lincoln and Whitney decide to throw caution to the wind and spend the night together. No names are exchanged. Just lots o' pleasure. Fast forward to the next morning when she realizes who he is and bolts, because FAMILY FEUD. And I ain't talking the game show.

Anywho, the book is a combination of present time and the past, starting with him drunkenly objecting at her wedding ten years ago. The first chapter sucked me in, but honestly, I had a little trouble investing myself in the story until about halfway in. Once the story delved a little deeper into their backstory, I felt as if I had a better grip on the characters and what exactly drove the feud.

There is still a ton of story left, so I'm reserving full judgement until I get my hands on the rest of the story. But I will say there were some things in Richer Than Sin that I didn't love. I'm hoping those things will have further explanation and resolution as the trilogy progresses. I enjoyed it and am invested enough to pace impatiently for book two so I can see where she takes this feud, and more importantly, this couple.

Hopelessly in love with this book!

Riscoff, Gable....Gable, Riscoff!!

Totally has an element of the Romeo and Juliet vibe but with so much more!!!

Whitney, aka-Blue, is a Gable through and through. Her family name equals nothing but loss and it’s all because of the Riscoff family.

The Riscoff family rules the world in the town of Gable-but what happens when a king takes notice of a servant? I’ll tell you what.............EVERYTHING!

It’s a chance meeting, identities unknown, and a past and present that makes this story undeniably addictive.

Blue is beautiful, smart and branded with the Gable name. She tries to escape, only to have her world turned upside down and then tossed right back into the town (and the man) that is completely forbidden and no matter how hard she tries to forget, unforgettable.

Lincoln, is a Riscoff. He sees what he wants...and he gets it. When his sights are set on Blue, all hell breaks loose. The timing shouldn’t be the most awful and perfect moment written....

But it is!!!!! AND it makes this book what it is......PERFECTION!!!

Completely in love with Lincoln and the man that he is in this story. Can totally relate with the struggles and torment that Blue has been and is going through. The right, the wrong, the need, the want. Ahhhhhh!

You feel it all in every page and I couldn’t get enough!

I would highly, HIGHLY recommend this book! This author just keeps on topping herself with a better read. Each. And. Every. Time! She has a magic about her that introduces me to characters that I fall in love with and think they are it for me...and then brings in another set that makes me fall harder. That said, I never forget those that came before them.

A great quality in an author, right?

Go get this book and have no fear, the wait for the other two aren’t far away. We’re talking mere weeks.

Go get it!! You will not be disappointed!

NO SPOILERS!

HOLY. FREAKING. CRAP! What did I just read?! Richer Than Sin was a sexy, addicting, and entertaining start to the Sin Trilogy, and has been my FAVORITE book from Meghan March so far! The storyline and characters were phenomenal, and I loved the author’s writing style. Everything Meghan March writes is pure gold, and Richer Than Sin was no exception.

The storyline was beyond amazing, and I honestly didn’t want it to end. While Meghan March excels at writing romantic suspense, I believe her true calling is forbidden and second chance romance. I was hooked to Richer Than Sin from the first page to the last, and was enthralled with all of the plot twists and everything else in between. Ms. March constantly kept me on my toes, and even though I knew there would be a cliffhanger, I absolutely did not expect that ending. Richer Than Sin completely blew me away, and I am literally dying to get my hands on the next installment, Guilty as Sin!

The characters were fan-freaking-tastic. Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable have been two of my favorite characters that Meghan March has written so far, and I completely fell head over heels in love with them and their story. I loved their personalities and smoking hot chemistry together, and how their relationship progressed throughout. I loved reading the book from both Lincoln and Whitney’s point of view, and all of their banter and interactions with each other. The first part of Lincoln and Whitney’s story was an epic ride that I will never forget, and I’m so excited to read part two in Guilty as Sin!

Richer Than Sin was a sexy, riveting, and addictive introduction to the Sin Trilogy, and I would HIGHLY recommend it! Richer Than Sin has been some of Meghan March’s best work to date, and I absolutely loved everything from beginning to end. I am totally hooked to Lincoln, Whitney, and their story, and can’t wait to read the continuation in Guilty as Sin!

oh you
I typically don’t enjoy books that flip from the past to the present, and back again. I find them hard to follow, and loose interest quickly.
However, who was I kidding when I thought “awe MAN! I hate these kinds of books!!” It’s Meghan. Freaking. March! There is no hating one of her books. So for the first time ever, I found one I actually enjoyed, that flips.

So Lincoln and Whitney come from two feuding families. They meet one night, and the passion between them is like wildfire... but they don’t know who the other person is at first. When Whitney realizes who Lincoln is, she quickly determines that he’s forbidden fruit. But Lincoln, he doesn’t give af about the family feud, he wants more of Whitney. After he objects at her wedding, she leaves town and is gone for 10 years! I don’t want to give too much away, because part of the fun is connecting all of the dots... but trust me, you don’t want to miss this one!
I wouldn’t compare this to a “Romeo and Juliet” type of love... because we know that story ends in tragedy, and Meghan always gives us a HEA... but as an ancestral Hatfield, I’d compare their families to the Hatfield’s and the McCoys. Right down to the shotguns.

I’m looking forward to “Guilty as Sin,” and getting to know these characters, and their story, even better!

Woot! Woot! Another FABULOUS story by Meghan March! Just one book in and I am already OBSESSED with this storyline and it's characters!

Lincoln Riscoff...*sigh* Talk about sexy! THIS man... Mmm Mmm! Hot, alpha, billionaire... he was all that and MORE!

"Kissing Lincoln Riscoff was like finding salvation when you'd thought all was lost. It didn't feel like kissing the enemy."

Broken, beautiful, and broke. Whitney Gable is mysterious and alluring. There is so much I want to know about her. I feel like we have not even touched the surface on who Whitney truly is. She is a multifaceted character that has me intrigued. I can't wait to see who she really is in book two! I have a feeling she is going to be a bit of a bad-a$$. I can't wait to find out!

"She was fire and heat and spice. Tasted like trouble. And I wanted it all."

Richer Than Sin is just the beginning of what I expect to be a phenomenal series. It's addictive, sexy, and full of drama . The twists and turns will leave you tied to every word. I absolutely LOVED the angst! This forbidden romance consumed my weekend and left me with one hell of a book hang over. I need more of Lincoln and Whitney! Counting down the days until the release of Guilty as Sin!

Ooooo this is good!

I love a good forbidden romance/longstanding family feud story. This book gives us it all. Gun slinging grandads, a nasty bitchy mother in law and a few good relatives thrown in for good measure.

Whitney and Lincoln are the star crossed lovers who get caught up and destroyed by the vile people around them. Their meant to be but were too young and hotheaded to realise it at the time. They burned bright and seemingly ended the same way.

10 years on and they've both had their fair share of trouble. Whitney's back in Gable after a fairly traumatic time and she's hell bent on avoiding Lincoln. He's having none of it though as he's well aware of his past mistakes and everything he lost. He's worked hard to atone and he's ready to finally take what he believes belongs to him.

They have great chemistry and feel like if they just took a deep breath and let go of the past and all the things that were out of their control they might just have a chance.

I'm a huge fan of Meghan March and her writing, she's an awesome storyteller and knows jut how to suck you in from the first few chapters.

Remember that this is the first of a trilogy so expect a cliffhanger and you won't be disappointed!

Interesting cliffhanger

I think the synopsis pretty much sums this book up, there's nothing said in Richer than Sin that hasn't ready been described.

Ten years ago Whitney and Lincoln met and began a Romeo and Juliette kind of relationship, their family feuds go back generations. Whitney's family is the one that came off worst in this power struggle resulting in the Gables and Riscoffs hating each other.

The secret relationship results in Whitney running when the going gets tough and she marries someone else and leaves town.
Ten years later Whitney Gable is back a widow and Lincoln this time is prepared not to let her run ever again although Lincoln is under pressure by his Grandfather to marry and continue the family legacy.

I found it slow going but interesting, there's very little angst or drama other than someone is trying to climb out of the woodwork claiming to be a Riscoff heir and the fact Whitney is back causing ripples in both families.

I do want to know the outcome of the cliffhanger though and how or if these two families will ever have a seize fire but the relationship and romance part in this book didn't have enough sparks and fire for me.

This story reminded of the Hatfields and McCoys. There is plenty of drama, sexiness, and angst. I was anxious to see what would happen every time I turned to the next page.

The Riscoffs and the Gables do not get alone. No more like the despise one another. The Riscoffs have money and alot of it. The Gables done have money but work hard for what they do have. They are fine staying away from one another until Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable meet in a bar. They couldn't resist one another but didn't know their families were enemies. Family came in between them. Whitney married another man and Lincoln was left with a broken heart. Ten years later they may have a second chance but there are still people trying to keep them apart and secrets that are about to come out.

I was very intrigued from the get go. I kept guessing at what was fixing to happen. I love that it's a second chance story and forbidden love all threw into one. The story was told in the present and past. At first I had a hard time getting into it because the back and forth confused me. After a few chapters I was in for good! There was no stopping me from soaking in each addictive word. I'm looking forward to see what happens with Lincoln and Whitney in the following books.

Y'all. Woah. I know Meghan March always brings it with anything she writes but this one takes the cake. I couldn't wait to dive into this world. Richer than Sin is a whole new world. It's not a spin off of any previous series, it's completely on it's own and I loved that.

Richer than Sin is very Hatfield's and McCoy's (I'm a real life Hatfield so this made me love the story even more). The Riscoff's and the Gable's despise each other. It's worse than despise, it's full on hatred. Lincoln Riscoff and Whitney Gable can't be together. Their family feud dictates that. Their chemistry begs to differ though.

Richer than Sin is fast paced story that flows perfectly. You will be sucked in by this story and these characters; Meghan makes sure of it. Meghan has a way of making you love her characters and she does an even better job at making you hate some of them too. The angst meter goes through the roof with this one. The twists and turns will have you thinking you know what's going to happen and then your head spins because you are taken on a completely different path. Richer than Sin is book one in this series and I can't wait to get my hands on book two. I HAVE to know how this story plays out.

Oh, Lincoln Riscoff...you are so sexy.

Richer Than Sin is another phenomenal romance from the brilliant mind of Meghan March. With her signature alpha male tone, this novel gives more of a Romeo & Juliet vibe.

The Riscoffs are the richest family and own nearly the entire town. For Lincoln, money isn’t everything. He’s the more grounded of the family but works hard to follow in his grandfather’s footsteps and continue to keep the family corporation profitable. But having grown up outside of town means the deep rooted animosity between his family and the Gables hold not meaning to him. Especially after spending the most incredible night with Whitney and later learns she’s a Gable.

For Whitney, she’s well aware the Riscoffs are off limits. Though shy tries to keep hm at a distance and keep it more fun and less serious, it was inevitable that he’d steal her heart.

The delivery of this story was beautiful. Switching from past to present, the author gives us the dual timeline to experience the passion and heartbreak Lincoln and Whitney share. Book One of this trilogy is the start of an incredible roller coaster ride and I’ve buckled in and prepared myself for the ride.

Richer Than Sin is the first installment of the Sin series by Meghan March.

A span of a decade old feud created by their family and destined enemies what more could we ask for! One night Lincoln Riscoff spent one night with a blue-eyed beauty, but when he found out it was Whitney Gable, he seemed to not care. It certainly didn’t stop him from objecting on her wedding day because now his blue-eyed beauty is home without a ring on her finger. This Riscoff is going to claim what his, but Riscoff doesn’t know the door he just opened up.

Meghan March, omg! This was fantastic, amazing and angsty! I love that this story switched between the past and the present. The transitions were done perfectly and swiftly, without disrupting the romance, drama and undeniable attraction these two characters portrayed throughout the story. I am in love! No turning back. Nope. Perfect.

I can not wait for more! If this is just the taste of what the Sin series can be, then I need to have a therapist on standby!

A must read! Just..go! One click! Yes Yes Yes!

5 Crazy Ass Must Read Stars!!!!!

Meghan March is at it again and I'm loving this new trilogy. My head is spinning with questions after that ending, or lack of one since MM is notorious for those pesky cliffies. Talk about the intensity of it all.
I went into this blind not really knowing what to expect expect for the forbidden aspect of the story. MM is just one of those authors that I will read anything she writes without out reading a blurb. I've loved everything I've read by her and the start to the new trilogy was no different. It's fast-paced and loaded with drama, tension (sexual and familial), angst, scorching sexiness, and more.
This was so different from MM's previous works that I've read. I loved it. It showed the versatility in her writing and made her even more of a favorite of mine.
I'm not going to give away anything on the story to my review is just that of my thoughts. It's so hard doing this because of the bajillion questions I want to ask but even those will giveaway details of the story. You just have to read for yourself.
I cannot wait until the next book. I need it now.

OH, HECK NOOOOO!!! Meghan March is the queen of cliffhangers. I OBJECT!!!

Lincoln Riscoff is gorgeous and wealthy, slated to take over his family multi-billion dollars empire. His only job is to marry well and protect and preserve the family legacy. Lincoln can have any woman he wants but he only has eyes for Whitney Gable. Who is she? She belongs to a long line of family feuds spanning back several generations. Lincoln is used to getting what he wants … he went after Whitney and he crashed and burned when Whitney married a rock star. Ten years later, Whitey came home still long legged, sexy as sin, and minus a ring on her finger…

“They say a Riscoff and a Gable can never live happily ever after . . . but I’m not done with Whitney Gable.”

Let the chase begins.

Oh dear! I am so freaking addicted to Meghan March. This book is absolutely HOT, angsty, greedy, full of drama, scandals, twists and turns. I love the forbidden love aspect. No spoiler but the ending … hot darn! I am about to have a heart attack. Just when things start to heat up, sh8t hits the fan. AHHHHH!!! I need book 2 ASAP.

Meghan March is always a fave, and while Richer than Sin isn’t the grip your seat, bite your nails suspense, the tale of Lincoln and Whitney and forbidden romance aspect captivated me just as well.

While these characters are a bit different, the hero and heroine still have signature March attributes. Lincoln is everything I love about a Meghan March hero. He is alpha and sexy, and I love the determination he has and the war he is willing to wage for her. Whitney is a bit different than her other heroines, but I still love her. She is fighting even though life has not always been kind.

These two, together, have the sizzle and pop readers have come to expect. Seeing their past and present, makes readers fall in love with them as a couple and develops their emotional authentically while also creating combustible chemistry in the bedroom.

Because this is a Trilogy, a good portion of this book is really the exposition of the overall series, and I love it. The whole cast of characters, the storyline thus far, and that epic cliffhanger guarantees Meghan March has another crazy ride for us.

Well, holy fudgsicle!! Pulling and pushing, will she or won't she? Will he? Will they?! Stop her! Confront them! The range of emotion that flowed through me and caused an earthquake in my mind was almost catastrophic. Meghan March created a world and those characters in it that are frustrating and oh so addicting!
Whitney and Lincoln have a very rocky past. Their families hate each other, but do they hate each other? One thing lead to another and then before you know it one falls for the other and then hearts are broken. When Whitney returns after having been gone for years, it's with her head down and her tail between her legs, not because she did something bad, but because she's trying to keep a quiet profile. When it comes to Whitney, quiet doesn't seem to follow her.
I don't know if I can handle more of this story, but I'll have to. I'll be reading with one eye open, an elastic band holding my kindle to my hand (so I don't throw it), and cursing Whitney and Lincoln for all of the back and forth and the emotional turmoil they've caused me. But I'll do it all with a grin on my face.

meghan march's latest novel takes us away from the gritty new orleans she'd built and to a town where rivalries run deep and nothing is as it seems.

richer than sin starts us out with lincoln rischoff objecting to the marriage that whitney gable is in the middle of celebrating. their families' objections, the longstanding animosity, all the reasons they shouldn't be together mean nothing to him. what matters to him is whitney. she is his. he is hers. those are the only truths he knows.

but ten long years pass before he sees her again. and while both lincoln and whitney have changed and grown there are two things that remain true. the chemistry between them and all the reasons they can't be together.

there are twists and turns aplenty, and knowing meghan march, plenty more to come. told both in the past and the present, this love story is so epic. i can't wait for more, i am loving these two and am absolutely dying for what is bound to be a not-too-easy road ahead.

**richer than sin will publish on august 14, 2018. i received an advance reader copy courtesy of meghan march in exchange for my honest review.
