Match BookPossessed by Sin
Kennedy Layne
2022 · 340 pages · Romance
How it reads
Possessed by Sin is romance (historical paranormal romance, specifically), and its dominant mood is romantic. The relationship is the engine of the story. The pace is moderate — neither a page-turner nor a slow burn — so it holds up whether you read it in long sittings or short ones.
It's set in several locations, in the historical past, told in the third person, staying close to one character. Its central concerns are love, redemption and secrets. In weight it's light and escapist — easy to fall into.
It's a later book in a series — you'll usually want to start earlier. The ending resolves happily. At 340 pages it's an ordinary novel's length. It's moderately known: read by plenty of people, but not a household name.
