4.5 Hearts!

Seriously, this just keeps getting better and better!

It pains me to know that this might be the only series of its kind - a space opera steeped heavily in military royalty espionage, all against a backdrop of a society that holds to Regency rules, unless somebody knows differently?? Anybody??

Regardless, this time around focuses on Prince Colton, who has finally resigned himself to the fact that Lord Sebastian Wentworth, aka a notorious rake, is never going to notice him, and that Colton simply needs to move on with his life. If only…

What Colton doesn't know is that Sebastian basically feels unworthy to even contemplate being his consort and thus, the situation is moot. However, it soon becomes apparent to Sebastian that the boy has grown into a damn beautiful man that he can no longer ignore, nor does he want to.

Luckily, many a circumstance and two wonderfully mischievous dads (and their various co-conspirators) work hard to bring Colton and Sebastian together. Such humorous levity that includes a fabulous ensemble cast, juxtaposes the more serious main mystery of the series, balancing things out wonderfully to make this a really fun and entertaining installment!

Fear not, there’s plenty of strict societal rules ready to be broken, with forbidden stolen kisses and fervent secret groping. This was especially extra fraught with feels, adding depth to the reliable hot UST and smexy smex, all intermingled with my favorite turmoil of insecurity, jealousy, and doubt. Yum!

So again, consistently delicious, sink-your-teeth-in goodness, blending scifi and historical genres perfectly on a futuristic planet all about men loving men.

Propriety that begs to be dismantled was never stripped so sweetly than in this series. Mmmm hmmm. I can hardly wait for the next!

Thank you to the author/publisher for a copy in exchange for a honest review

It was a very very meh read. And even for a smutty read it let me down hard. I actually skipped all the smutty parts... I just can't get over the fact that they wouldn't talk before just having sex. It wasn't even a situation where both parties are just desperate to avoid the conversation and then just have sex. They just ... Didn't. ( )

Let me just get this off my chest first: I LOVE this series! These books are going from strength to strength and I can't wait for more.

It's one of those books that you just want to read again as soon as you've finished it... so yes, I'll definitely revisit these all again.

The only true downside is that I now need to wait for the next book to find out what happens...Please hurry and write it please J.L. Langley... ( )

Good story. I found it to be a little predictable, but the love story was nice. ( )
