Made For Sin by Celia May Hart




Two very different sisters with one thing in common – the good fortune to find men who’ll show them how heavenly sin can be…
Lucy Waverton’s wild escapades are the talk of the ton. Fleeing the notorious Earl of Radbourne’s carriage after a delicious seduction, she meets a solder whose hard body and rebellious streak stir her newly awakened desires. Sergeant Michael Hall may be lowborn, but his every caress takes her higher and higher, into a realm of pure carnal ecstasy…
Searching the country for her reckless younger sister, Caroline Waverton instead finds herself in the company of the rogue who reputedly ruined Lucy. Alex Radbourne is decadent, depraved, and devilishly skilled at uncovering Caroline’s secret, forbidden desires. The refined Miss Caroline has a thoroughly wanton side, and though each knows the affair is wrong, nothing could feel more right than surrendering to sinfully erotic abandon…

Made for Sin by Celia May Hart is a two stories that intertwine together to make a complete story. Lucy ran away and ends up with Michael and Caroline is searching and ends up with Radbourne. The intertwining story is interesting to read and is good for the audience to stretch their brains a little bit to keep up.
I will tell you now my biggest problem with the story. At the end, Caroline knows that Lucy doesn’t love Radbourne and wants to be with Michael but she thinks that Lucy needs to do the honorable thing. That may be a good idea for some but Caroline has been sleeping with Radbourne most of the trip. She knows that he wouldn’t be a good husband and definitely wouldn’t be faithful to Lucy. WHY MAKE LUCY MARRY HIM???? Okay, now I’ve got that off my chest. I just think that the character seems to be a little dumb in that respect but at least at in the end she lets Lucy run off with Michael so that she’s very happy. I understand the rest of the characters motivations and reasoning behind the way they act but that one little thing drove me up the wall reading it. Right before the happy resolution I even complained to my husband that they should just go their separate ways and everyone would be happy. I’m glad there was a happy conclusion.
Lucy was born into a higher class than Michael but it was nice to see her not complain even though she hurt and to suck it up and help with the band of traveling soldiers. Caroline on the other hand seemed to have a luxurious time in the book, riding in carriages and staying at inns. Even though the stories were very different it was nice to see the way the sisters both got their happy ending. Caroline ended up with the guy who ruined her sister but Caroline seemed happy to spend time with him. They got along great.
The sex in this book was worth reading. There were many different ways and the idea of privacy was not readily available in this book so the idea of having sex in front of people who were trying to pretend the others weren’t actually having sex was intriguing. There was an almost rape scene that was a little hard to read but it all worked out in the end. It sort of makes you think about how you would react in that situation.
Overall the book is a good read. It’s worth reading. Personally anything endorsed by Aphrodisia Publishing is worth reading (to me anyway). I rate this book 3.5 stars.
