Natural Born Sinners
Welcome to Satan’s Playground.
I’ve toyed with every sin under the sun.
Grown men get wrapped around my finger and discarded.
I’ve killed to protect Satan’s Paradise.
But when the higher ups tell me to save someone?
Yea, that’s when my life starts going sideways.
There’s no one here I can trust, but I don’t have a choice.
So, new rule. I won’t trust anyone I can’t kill.
Someone like my sexy Under-Lieutenant, with the rugged scar, and the smoldering gaze.
The one whose kiss gets under my skin.
The man who tastes like something more than just sin.
Baby, I hope you’re ready for this.
Because you can’t walk through the flames of hell without getting burned.
Disclaimer: These aren’t heroes, and their satanic romance isn’t neat and tidy. Shockingly, the Satanic cult that controls a secluded Island has little concern for morality, and the laws only stand as long as you’re strong enough to enforce them. This is a gritty gothic romance novel that may contain scenes that are disturbing to some readers. Content notes are available inside.

This is a dark book. The characters in this book have no morals whosoever on the island that they rule over. Laws can’t be enforced unless you are strong enough to enforce them. So this is a different kind of read that you are probably use to reading.
You will want to heed the warnings in the beginning of the book because it will contain triggers for some readers.
I have to say WOW!!! I’m not sure I even know how to review what I just read and that isn’t always a bad thing. I just don’t want to give a thing away. This book will keep you turning the pages and I don’t want to tell the story for you, because you would have to under stand how it all works to understand the island.
I really enjoyed this book. I pushed my beliefs and boundaries for sure but I could not put it down.
Edgy and twisted, Natural Born Sinners is a gripping gothic occult fiction novel, with splashes of cosmic horror and dark romance. Satanos is a place of immoral release to escape the confines of the “real world”, but tourists always seem to receive more than they bargained for when they arrive upon its sinister shores. A mystifying tale of betrayal and one’s hunt for truth, all laid upon a backdrop of vile worship, this book was a page-turner, and my first read, but certainly not my last, by author J.M. Keep.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time between the covers of Natural Born Sinners, its pages peppered with some satisfying spice and the progression of a fearless FMC that stabs first and asks questions later. There were a few unanswered questions I hope to have resolved in the future (fingers crossed!), but the story ties up nicely. If you’re into dark fiction, especially stories heavy with layered mystery, luscious violence, and steaminess, then this may be one for you.
This is perfect for anyone who loves dark- dark urban, dark paranormal, dark romances, just dark anything. The author described this as dark, twisty, and unusual- which is spot on. This is a complete work, although I am hoping that there is more coming, either a continuation of this story or another person’s story in the same location. I just want more.
This is 4.5 chili peppers out of 5 chili peppers. So graphic, sexy, and raw. 18+.
The author’s style is good, everything flows nicely. The world building is flawless. There are no spots where you find contradictions and everything seems plausible.
I loved this story and would recommend it to a friend.
