Skin of a Sinner: A Dark Romance (Alternative Cover with Black Pages) Hardcover – January 15, 2024
Purchase options and add-ons
Roman Riviera was my everything once upon a time. I found my knight in shining armor in the form of a fellow foster kid. He protected me and promised to stand by my side forever.
But Roman Riviera is a liar.
He left me with monsters.
Three years later, I found him in the middle of the night, soaked in my family’s blood and carving his initials into my foster brother’s skin. He tied me up and dragged me away from the life I had made without him.
I tried to run, but he chased me. I wanted to scream, but the sound never came out.
He says that I’m never getting away from him. He says he’s back for good. I don’t believe him.

About the author

From an early age, romance author Avina St. Graves spent her days imagining fantasy worlds and dreamy fictional men, which spurred on from her introverted tendencies. In all her day dreaming, there seemed to be a reoccurring theme of morally grey female characters, love interests that belong in prison, and unnecessary trauma and bloodshed.
Much to everyone's misfortune, she now spends her days in a white collar job praying to every god known to man that she might be able to write full time and give the world more red flags to froth over.

- Reviewed in the United States on March 21, 2024If I could read this again for the first time, I would. I loved it from start to finish. If dark, slightly deranged, hates everyone but her is your vibe, then go read it. It's worth the hype.
Roman is taking top book BF for now. And I don't think anyone has the balls to take him out. I'm just saying.
Also, this cover makes me so happy.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2024I literally just bought this for the black pages. I’ve never seen that before haha

- Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2024I loved everything about this book!
- Reviewed in the United States on December 10, 2024I just loved this book. It was so dark, but the MMC’s devotion and dedication to keeping his girl safe…. Do. Not. Cross. Him. (Or her for that matter, that’s even more dangerous for you.)
- Reviewed in the United States on March 6, 2024I love love LOVE this special edition, all black pages, copy of Skin of a Sinner. It’s perfect for Isabella and Roman’s story and the artwork of the characters inside is exactly and I pictured them.
I love “Mickey’s” unhinged, crazy possessive side but also just wanted to give him a hug because he just wanted his girl to love him and understand that it’s always been her and only her 🥺.
“I’m sorry, Princess. I didn’t meant to wake you”
Cue me, screaming.
I love a masked man that’s willing to burn the world for his girl and Roman holding a blowtorch and just waiting for Bella to say the word. He made this book and I am obsessed with him.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2024By no fault of the author this book was not up to quality when printed. The first one I got was perfect except for the spine was damaged, it could have happened during shipping but who knows. I submitted a claim and was sent a new one at no cost and got to keep the damaged on. The second one came but the pages were so faded you could barely see the pictures. But the spine wasn't damaged. So I am keeping the first copy because even though it had creases on the spine the black pages were perfect and I can see the pictures clearly. The second copy will be given to someone.

5.0 out of 5 stars GORGEOUS book
I had already read this book and enjoyed it, but once I saw the black pages I needed the trophy for my bookshelf. I actually had to get a replacement since the first book arrived slightly damaged, Amazon sent me a new copy right away though which arrived in perfect condition.
The book it's self is absolutely gorgeous, with artwork and black pages throughout, but I loved the story as well. Despite being a dark romance, the MMC gives off golden retriever vibes, which surprisingly works very well.

5.0 out of 5 stars EL LIBRO: MARAVILLOSO - LA CALIDAD DE AMAZON: PÉSIMA
IMPORTANTE: He valorado con 5 estrellas este producto porque el libro en sí está genial y no quiero que las reseñas hagan pensar a la gente que el libro no merece la pena. Aunque vista la calidad del producto que llega, mejor comprar la versión normal de este libro y así no habrá decepciones.
5 ESTRELLAS PARA EL LIBRO: La historia es espectacular, te mantiene enganchada hasta el final, los personajes son muy interesantes... CONCLUSIÓN: no hay nada de este libro que no me guste.
Avina St. Graves ha hecho un trabajo espectacular escribiendo este libro. ¡100% recomendable!
0 ESTRELLAS PARA AMAZON: ¡¡La calidad de impresión del libro es NEFASTA!!
-En la primera hoja no se puede leer ni el nombre completo de la autora.
-Hay una franja blanca en la parte inferior de las hojas.
-El color no es negro si no gris oscuro.
-Las ilustraciones no se ven claramente.
-Hay marcas en todas las páginas por mala calidad de impresión y falta de tóner.
Me parece una vergüenza que Amazon no revise la calidad de sus productos antes de enviarlos, sobre todo en productos poco comunes como este, donde las hojas se supone que tendrían que ser negras.

4.0 out of 5 stars Avina does not miss!
First of all, this edition is absolutely stunning with beautiful character art but the story is just as good!
Roman and Isabella hold on to eachother to survive their tragic childhood. Roman takes care of her from the first moment they met at ages 6 and 8. He keeps her save, fed and does her hair (!). They become everything to eachother till Roman suddenly disappears for three years.
Well it's Avina so I knew I would love it! It's such a sweet story despite al the trauma. The way Roman is completly soft, but only for Bella! And I don't care if the FMC is a virgin or not but when the MMC is a virgin it's a different story entirely! A man waiting for his girl to be intimate? Hot as Hell! Does that mean I have a virgin kink?
Maybe, probably, I might as well add it to my long list of unlocked kinks
I do have to be honest! Bella was really selfish and annoyed the shit out of me during the middle part. Sure it's a lot to take in, but you've had him by your side doing everything for you for fourteen years and you can't get over three years? Three involuntary years btw! Instead of feeling sorry for herself she should've tried harder to find him!
Thankfully she realizes this herself towards the end and turns everything around. The Disney scene and the ending were perfect. They really got the lives they deserved.
