{Release Day Review} The Chateau (The Original Sinners #9) by Tiffany Reisz (@8thCirclePress)

As the Jack-of-All-Wicked-Trades for a secretive French military intelligence agency, 24-year-old Lieutenant Kingsley Boissonneault has done it all—spied, lied, and killed under orders. But his latest assignment is quite out of the ordinary. His commanding officer's nephew has disappeared inside a sex cult, and Kingsley has been tasked with bringing him home to safety. 

The cult’s holy book is Story of O, the infamous French novel of extreme sado-masochism. Their château is a looking-glass world where women reign and men are their willing slaves. Or are they willing? It’s Kingsley’s mission to find out.

Once inside the château, however, Kingsley quickly falls under the erotic spell cast by the enigmatic Madame, a woman of wisdom, power, and beauty. She offers Kingsley the one thing he’s always wanted. But the price? Giving up forever the only person he’s ever loved.

The Chateau is a new standalone Original Sinners novel from international bestseller Tiffany Reisz, author of The Siren and The Lucky Ones.

​While Kingsley Théophile Boissonneault sleeps alone in Paris, he dreams about endless winter, about wolves and about a beautiful boy dressed in white. 
 
He’s tried desperately to exorcise the memory of the one he can’t have by signing up for every dangerous mission that he could.  Until he is ordered to save a young boy who is being held captive at a mysterious Chateau.  And it might turn out to be the most perilous assignment of all.

​“Then why did you come here?”

“My own reasons.” 

“You wish to serve, do you?” 

Kingsley whispered, “Yes.”

She said nothing. The blade remained flush against his neck, cool and sharp. 
​
“You betray your mission easily,” she said. “Why is that?”
 
“Because fuck my mission. Leon is nineteen. And I don’t want to lie to you.”

 “And why is that?” 
​
“For my job I have to lie to everyone. I’d like to tell the truth to someone before I forget how.”

​Inside the Chateau, a woman known simply as Madame offers to give Kingsley the life that he always longed for.  A life filled with intoxicating pleasure and pain. A life where his passion would never go unrequited and one where he would finally know what is was like to be called a father.
 
But Kingsley must choose between his heart’s desire and the owner of his soul. And he knows that whatever choice he makes, he will never be the same again.

​“Where are you, you monster?” Kingsley breathed, shuddering with need as he wandered down the hall. “You should be here. This is where your kind belongs. And mine.” For they were the same, he and his monster. And truly, who was the more depraved—the boy sadist or the grown man who would have knelt to him on this fetid floor? Even now Kingsley was hard, his breaths shallow, his cock aching. Seven years ago, he’d whispered to his master, “There is nothing you could do to me I wouldn’t want…” And in this cold dark dungeon corridor, Kingsley knew those words were still true. More true than ever. Indeed, the only truth he knew. If his monster were only here now… 
 
“I want you,” Kingsley whispered. “I still want you with every cell in my body.”

​With The Chateau, Tiffany not only delivers an erotically charged thriller but also a heartbreaking love story with an emotional punch that will bring you to your knees. 
 
She reveals a side of Kingsley that we’ve never seen before. This is the man that longs for someone to love him with the same ferocity as he loves. And the side of him that desperately yearns for children of his very own. 
 
It’s scandalous, poetic, poignant and life affirming in a way that only The Original Sinners can be.  And it’s why our hunger for more from these iconic characters will never ever be satisfied…
