The Chateau by Tiffany Reisz | ★★★★☆ (4.5)
  
As a note, an e-galley of this novel was sent to me via NetGalley by the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This does not effect my opinions in any way.

Does anyone else have that compulsive need to get their hands on literally everything that Tiffany Reisz has ever, and will ever, publish? Because, hello, I totally do. With good reason--everything she touches catches fire by mere paragraphs, let's be honest. The Chateau proves this and reminds us that she is pretty much on another level when compared to her peers.

First things first: if you haven't read The Original Sinners yet, you probably should. It's such a great series. Fiery, well written, everything that another similar series could never be, blah-blah-blah. Normally, I'd ask why you have not read it, yet, but we're all friends here and I'm just going to gently nudge you in her direction. That being said, even if you haven't read the series yet, you could start with The Chateau, as it is a standalone. And a damn good introduction to all that the series, and Reisz, is.

As far as erotica goes, my experience has been pretty abysmal until Tiffany Reisz showed me that the genre has an entirely different level to it than I realized. Her work is truly brilliant. Not only is it as wonderfully written and developed as usual, there's more than just a sexy edge to it and it gives us some insight further into the series as longtime readers know it.

In short: IT IS THRILLING. Heart-beating, slow breathing, delicious and fast paced fun.

The Chateau brings Reisz' beloved series to an all-time high, creating something truly wonderful and unforgettable. She proves once again that she is a fan-favourite for a reason--no one is at her level. It is unlike anything I've read in the genre because of its many layers. Kingsley is one of my favourite characters and The Chateau shows us exactly why he is.

Erotica, and in extension The Chateau, may not be for everybody but Tiffany Reisz does it better than anybody else. The Chateau is highly entertaining and a wild ride you don't want to miss.
