***SEVEN SINS: Conquer the sin and find true love. At least, that's the theory. But would it hold true? Or would these sins live up to their deadly billing?*** **Could love be her salvation? Indicted for a crime she didn't commit, Angela Dragon is determined to find out who framed her -- even if that means confronting the mob...and escaping an infuriatingly clever, dimple=flashing bounty hunter. After all, something vitally important is at stake -- her honor.** Micah Kaminsky's job is to bring this wayward angel home. But as bullets start to fly and bad guys, cops and chivalrous truckers take up the chase, he finds himself wanting to help her...and keep her. ***When she learns the truth about him, will she still want him, or will his dragon lady let pride keep them apart?--FictionDB***

Beyond its central premise, the book can be read through the connected lenses of Romance, Fiction. Those themes offer useful points of attention as the characters, ideas, or world develop, especially where the book complicates the expectations of its primary category.

A more thoughtful way into this book

This guide uses the edition details and category signals above to help you choose deliberately. It does not replace the author's work or a full review.

Good to know

A comfortable full-length choice for steady daily reading.

Begin with its place in Romance, then notice where the book resists that label.

Try this reading approach

Read for connection, not completion.

Mark one passage that sharpens the book's central concern and one that complicates it. That tension often reveals more than a quick summary.

Three questions to carry with you

  1. What must each character learn before the relationship can become believable?
  2. How do work, family, friendship, or identity shape the central relationship?
  3. Does the emotional resolution feel earned by the choices that came before it?
