The Lyon’s Den Connected World
My first foray into The Lyon’s Den World did more than whet my appetite…it made me wish I had read more than the one book in this collection while introducing me to an author I immediately doing an online search to see what other books she might have written and whether Matthew’s many siblings might have books of their own now or in the future. I do love sinking my teeth into a well-seasoned sensual story that leaves me satisfied while wanting more!
What I liked:
* Sarah: intelligent, strong, enduring, compassionate, steadfast, responsible, abused, scarred, practical, deserved so much more than her life provided before she became a widow
* Matthew: capable, protective, military background, recently invested as Duke of Emberton after his father died unexpectedly, eldest of many children, in for a surprise as he sets his future course to include Sarah
* Mark: brother to Matthew and heir to the duchy, more lighthearted than his brother, in the know, has a great idea to help Matthew back to his military career
* Phyllida: mother of a brood that includes Matthew and Mark, bold, intrepid, strategist keen, puts her family first, misses her husband, someone I would like as a friend and not as an enemy.
* That a novella could pack so much into so few pages
* Being drawn into the story, getting to know and care about the characters, and hoping that a happily ever after would occur for the couple
* That in spite of all that Sarah had suffered and endured, she was able to find the strength to move forward and do so in a positive way – she reminds me of a piece of Kintsugi porcelain repaired with gold…perhaps broken but stronger and more beautiful in the aftermath
What I didn’t like:
* Who and what I was meant not to – Owen the horrific husband and the couple that came after him
* Thinking about how difficult Sarah’s life must have been
Did I enjoy this book? YES!
Would I read more by this author? Definitely
Would I read more in this series/World? Eagerly
Thank you to NetGalley and Dragonblade for the ARC – This is my honest review.
