There is nothing like an adult romance to refresh our TBR list! It may or may not be a guilty pleasure of ours. And we love sharing our wide range of book reviews with all of you. Wicked Believer by Kait Ballenger is a spicy, dark romance transforming New York City into the Seven Deadly Sins’ playground.

Wicked Believer is the second book in the Original Sinners trilogy, picking up only days after the end of book one. As a new divine being, Charlotte must navigate her increasingly complicated relationship with Lucifer and her role in the pending war among the celestials.

This sequel delivers even more drama, secrets, and spice, of course. Here are three things we love about Kait Ballenger’s Wicked Believer!

Book Overview: Wicked Believer

Content warnings: heavy themes of religious trauma, religiously motivated hate speech, mentions of forced marriage, forced pregnancy, and emotional, physical, and sexual abuse, stalking, drinking, drug use, graphic violence, religious genocide, mass murder, swearing (Please read at your discretion!)

Summary: I wasn’t always immortal. And I’m not sure I’ll ever get the hang of it. Not like Lucifer, a.k.a. Pride. He and the other seven deadly sins, the high-profile billionaires who run this city, make the divine life look easy.

I came to New York a good, if damaged, Christian girl. Then Lucifer opened my eyes to the darkness. To the hunger burning inside me. To a world of pain and pleasure like nothing I’ve ever known. Now it’s all I crave. He’s all I crave.

But as I grapple with this new existence―and the events that led me to it―unseen forces push me and Lucifer apart. Paparazzi track my every move, Lucifer’s family plays their wicked games, and I hardly know who I am anymore. Or who I’m meant to be.

A celestial war is brewing, and Lucifer’s siblings are out for blood―and the dark power inside me calls me to join the fight.

The Spice

We’re not ashamed to admit that the spice in Wicked Believer is hot, hot, hot! Charlotte and Lucifer stay ready to jump each other’s bones, and we don’t blame them one bit! The tension, the BDSM scenes, and of course, the aftercare are top-tier. Charlotte even has wicked fantasies of her own, though she still grapples with the complicated feelings of shame that ensue. If you thought book one was steamy, then wait until you read the sequel!

Lucifer’s Character Development

While we loved Charlotte’s character development in the first book, Lucifer’s personal journey in Wicked Believer definitely stood out to us. He’s forced to rethink his possessiveness over Charlotte. Lucifer also struggles with an inability to confide in Charlotte, so as not to make her worried about him. But that only backfires and pushes the two of them apart. Lucifer must learn the importance of choice and truly fight for their relationship if they have any hopes of making it in the long run.

A New Love Interest

Another thing we love about Wicked Believer is the appearance of a new love interest. We won’t give away his name yet, though. He appears exclusively in Charlotte’s dreams and flashbacks in Original Sinner and the first quarter of the sequel. To sweeten the deal, he even has a long history with Lucifer. We were not expecting how obsessed we’d be over their three-way romance, but we can’t wait to see how their relationship develops in the next installment of this series.

Packed with more drama, character development, and spice, we’ve become even more invested in Kait Ballenger’s brilliant new sequel, Wicked Believer!

Wicked Believer by Kait Ballenger comes out September 9th, and you can order a copy of it here!
