Sins Needles The Artists Trilogy Karina Halle 9781479359080 Books

Ellie Watt doesn't have a lot of alternatives at the moment. A life of scamming has lead her back to her hometown as a temporary escape until she can get some money and formulate her next plan. While she wasn't expecting to see Camden McQueen again, they are back to square one with a past that was better off being left behind in high school. While I loved the writing, I didn't get attached to Ellie or Camden. I actually liked Javier the most and he wasn't a main character, but he plays an important role that will likely increase in the next books. However, the story gets more interesting with Camden and Ellie because they know what the other person is like and similar to a game of chess, they make their moves with calculated strategy and it's anyone's guess as to what the final outcome will be because there are surprises tucked in. And like with any roll of the dice, Ellie has even an bleaker array of choices than what she came with and I'm intrigued with her relationship development with Camden because it's rather dicey, but there's still quite a bit of passion, too. I'm definitely curious to see what will happen next because the story has a lot of exciting possibilities ahead.

Sins Needles The Artists Trilogy Karina Halle 9781479359080 Books Reviews

This book read like an action movie, God what I would give to see a real life Camden McQueen, all tatted and pierced, rocking his glasses....but I digress.

Ellie Watt is a grifter, a con artist, and a woman with a painful past, in more ways than one. She needs a break though and so she goes back to her only family. While she's back home she runs into a former friend who is now a totally hot tattoo artist. They have a not-so-great history though, so things don't go as smoothly as they should. And all of that is before the Javier drama starts!

I love Karina's writing style and her musical references are just the best. It just adds a cool factor to her novels.
Book 1 in this trilogy is amazing. It's laying the framework for what has happened to our amazing lead characters, Ellie and Camden. But honestly, if you get a chance, read the book that preceeds this one on the timeline (On Every Street). It gives you even more background that brings Ellie back to California.
What can I say? I love a good action filled, suspense filled, strong woman book. And Ellie Watt is just it for me. She may have a past and may have scars, but she is just bold in her wants, needs, and sexuality. Perhaps it's not boldness, but her "job" of being a con artist. Regardless, I loved her right from the start because she isn't perfect, but she has a sense of what is right and wrong, but still lives on her own terms. Perfect in my book world.
"You've never seen my scars." ....."No, I haven't. But I've seen what they've made you."
And then there is Camden. The hot as hell tattoo artist that seems to just fall at Ellie's feet. But obviously that isn't it. He's strong and can definitely hold his own and has a huge surprise just waiting for Ellie. But what happens when trust is broken but you forge an alliance to succeed at something completely different? What happens when your past catches up with you and you are trying to live for the future??
"I have to live with my mistakes, but I don't have to regret them. I regret my actions, but I can't regret the consequences."
This story reads like a movie that is full of action with strong characters male and female. There are chases, fight scenes, guns death and some hot romance. Yowza!
If you're looking for a heart pounding non stop action book, you've found it. There is romance and there is a love story there, but you have to get past the history and what they are running from and running towards. A movie in book format that I found intriguing and fun to read.
This book begins 5 years after the break up of Javier and Eden/Ellie, (their story is On Every Street, the book before this). Returning to her roots, she resumes her real identity and runs into Camden, a guy from her past, one who was the bullied goth in school who is now, as Ellie describes him, 'sex on a stick'. Their friendship ended really badly all those years ago, but he seems to be over the things Ellie did to him. Or so it would seem...

He romances her, which is all pretty sexy and fun, and then...(I don't want to give anything away)...that big scene in his office completely threw me for a loop...But there were a lot of things in this book that did and, honestly, I was on the edge of my seat, nervous with anticipation, and for most of the book. More so because, after reading other reviews here, I knew Javier was eventually going to show up in this story and, frankly, I was pretty nervous about how all that was going to play out. Because I read Dirty Angels first (because I didn't know about this trilogy beforehand) I am sort of partial to Javier and I really wanted to be able to like him in this book...and I still did, even though he was rather scary...and made the story even more gritty and edgy.

All in all, this was another story with great writing, plot, dialogue, and super sexy characters.
I so wanted to slap Ellie. Always blaming everyone but herself. You learn that everyone that should have been there for her betrayed her. She's learned from them and turned into them. When seeking revenge on someone that hurt her as a child. She falls in love with the wrong person. Another person who broke her trust. So she goes to the one and only person she trust her only real family her uncle. He's doesn't want her. He's finally not hated by the community after her parents conned everyone and left her there for him to raise. When she run into a friend from her past. She can't believe he knows who she is but also wants to hangout and catch up. When you find out what she did to her only real friend Camden just evil. You hate her for being so cruel. I thought she was going to rip that poor kid now guy apart again. The two need each other soon they become a team. The past will always catch up with you. Ellie finally going to make things right. She giving herself up. To help Camden keep his family and run without looking back. End the end they both lose it looks like
