I loved this story! Trevelyan and Estelle have a complicated history and when Trev comes back into her life sparks fly. Estelle left Trev years before directly after they slept together for the first time (both losing their virginity to each other) and took half his money. Even though this sounds like an awful thing to do, Estelle is a wonderful woman who makes up for her mistakes. She's had a hard life and struggled to make a success of herself. She makes dresses for the wealthy women in society but secretly helps young women escape to Gretna Green to get married to men of their choosing if they want to avoid loveless marriages.Bow Street Runner Trevelyan has been hired to find a missing debutant and his investigation leads him right to Estelle's dress shop. He knows she's lying to him about not having a clue where the missing woman might be and the heat that unfolds between them at seeing each other after so long is scorching. Even though at first he's rightfully angry at her, his pursuit of her is very sweet. Sinful is a great story about forgiveness and reunited lovers. I love second chance stories and this one is bite-sized and perfect for when you don't have time to read a full novel. There was just enough intrigue, suspense and romance to make this story perfectly balanced.
