The story was nicely written and it’s a good read but I really didn’t want to read spaceship explosion scene twice in the series. 🙂 Aside from that, this was a fantastic read and there are some unexpected twists in the characters of MCs too. 😊
So our second Tyger prince, one of the twins, Anarr has his own love story in this book. As with our mischievous Tyger princes, everything they plan always turned out to be disasters though in a hilarious way. 😂 Anarr is just stark bored since the wars are over when he became old enough to fight and since he’s not the crown prince, he’s also not involved in governing. And because of his overprotective Omak Blake, he’s kinda naïve and innocent like a child too. 😁 So when he got a chance to rescue Kevin’s lost son, Jeffery, in a slavery auction on one of the moons of Lycanus, he immediately jumped at the chance and went straight away. But alas, our hero-to-be prince Annar turned out to be caught as a criminal instead of the heroic rescuer he’s supposed to be.
Former Lycan general of the Alliance Army and now the newly appointed head of law enforcement of Lycanus, Renard hated Tygerians to the gut. 😁 He obstinately believed that as long as he’s not giving in, the war isn’t really ended and they haven’t really surrendered to the Tygerians. Never in a million years, this big, bad wolf has never dreamed of an annoying Tygerian to be his true mate. 😂 And to make the matters worse, a tygerian PRINCE?!? 😂😁😜 That just can’t be true. However, when our beloved and spoilt consort/queen Blake was involved, well, this Lycan General never stood a chance with our wicked mother hen and ended up needing to marry prince Anarrs. 😁👏
Like I said, despite the fact that I disliked a similar plot as in book two, this one also was such a joyful read too. I love how these two dominant males fight over dominance in everything, literally and figuratively .. (if you know what I mean 😂😜😉). I mean a Tiger and a Wolf who are natural enemies ended up being true mates? Haaa .. just my cuppa. 👏 I love that I can read more of Blake and Davos in this one and I really hoped to read more of them in the future too. And wow, what a twist in the story! 😱 The criminal turned out to be someone I really didn’t think of. That was quite a dramatic one and I loveeeed it. 👏 I just can’t seem to get enough of the mischievous royal Tygerian clan. 😊 And I’m loving Blake more and more in every book. 😁 Can’t wait to read book four.
Favorite excerpts from the book: 💜💚💙
”there was no protection against love.”
“The fear of losing what you loved would always go hand in hand with that love. But a person who risked nothing, did nothing—had nothing.”

I owe everything to Cupcake for finding this book and reading it. Her ”unicorn porn” comment made me gallop to Amazon page and purchase it right away I owe everything to Cupcake for finding this book and reading it. Her ”unicorn porn” comment made me gallop to Amazon page and purchase it right away and I’m so glad that I did. 😂 I love this book sooooo much. ❤️ This is a total package, it’s funny, witty, sexy and has a good amount of angst and darkness. I love it. 😍👏
So the blurb explains most of it. Vorgell the barbarian accidentally killed a unicorn, ate the flesh and fucked himself on the unicorn horn. 😁 It’s a very powerful aphrodisiac and it made him horny as hell all the time. When he was captured by the baron’s soliders, he was thrown away in a jail cell where he met the most beautiful, delectable and nubile young man whose ass he desperately want to stick his cock in. However, the young man is not so innocent as he looks, he’s a witch and he used Vorgell to escape there.
Madd is a cunning and manipulative young witch who was collared as a love slave against his will by Baron Flemgu. He hates this man to the guts but he couldn’t refuse him because of the love collar. His grandma was also killed by the baron and he practically used him as a manwhore not only for him but also for his friends and he hated every single second of it. When he tried to defy the baron, he was thrown away in the cell and later, a giant barbarian was also put there as a prisoner. As soon as he learnt what the barbarian did, he knew that he could use his blood to plan their escape and he did. But the thing is he couldn’t seem to escape barbarian as they end up running together for their lives.
The world building of this fantasy world is just amazing. 👏 The imagery is very vivid and the dialogues are to die for. 👍 While running away, they began to build an unusual friendship and companionship and they started to really rely on and have feelings on each other. The banters between them are just gold. 😁 Hilarious! 😂👏 The plots and the storyline are impeccable too. I could never guess what’d happen and that’s the best thing ever. And the sex, Oooooo, the sex is just on fire. 😜 Hot and dirty and titillating. 😘 With that being said, this book is not all about witty banters, love and friendship, there are some very dark parts that gave me goosebumps. However, that was necessary in the story and I really like that the author wasn’t afraid to go dark. I love how everything turned out in the end but I want even a longer story. This is not enough .. I want more of Vorgell and Madd. 😭 I desperately hope there will be a sequel in the story because I really want more of these two’s adventures. So delicious. 😍❤️😘
Favorite excerpts from the novel: 💗💜💗
“That cock might be a monster, but it was also magnificent… rosy, long, and thick, with a luscious, big head poking free of the foreskin and glistening like the jewel on a scepter. The only way that knob could be any shinier would be if he’d been licking it.”
“Damn it, what was happening to him? Was he actually… fond of Vorgell? And why shouldn’t he be? The man was sex on the prowl, predatory, healthy, and built to enjoy lovemaking for hours on end. Madd would never find a man with a more beautiful cock, or one so perpetually ready to give or receive pleasure. Considering the magical gifts attached… hell, he’d be a fool to turn Vorgell away.”
“I believe that’s for me to decide. What I want, who I want… what I need.”

And I really regret that I didn’t read this one sooner because I really REALLY loved it. ❤️ I’m a great fan of gladiators and slave-fic romances. So this really is my wet dream come true. 😁
Devon is the sovereign of a rich province. Being a good general and a great leader, people have certain expectations for Devon. And one of them is for him to be always in authority and in control. But Devon longs to submit, at least in the silky sheets of his bed chamber and that is one wish that won’t be fulfilled as a sovereign. And to make the matters worse, the subject of his fantasy, the man he wanna submit to is Xan, the champion gladiator and a desert rebel whose life he pardoned a few years ago. It’s the battle between heart and head. And Devon needs to be in control and let go of it at the same time to get his ultimate happiness. 💜
It was a really well-written enemies to lovers trope romance with a healthy dose of beautiful submission. 🥰 And don’t forget, our sovereign is a virgin! 😱😂 And I loved the mystery/suspense aspect of the storyline. It was jus very well-paced and sexy. And damn, the smut was smoking hot!!! 🔥 I loved every single second of those two in sheets. 😉 Loved it! I hope it will be available again on Amazon soon because more people need to know about this little tasty gem. 😌
5 live for me and love me stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

So we finally got the extended HEA version of Shane and Rafa. 🤗 This book delighted me and frustrated me at the same time. 😁 I can’t help but thinkingSo we finally got the extended HEA version of Shane and Rafa. 🤗 This book delighted me and frustrated me at the same time. 😁 I can’t help but thinking this book was such a missed opportunity for Keira Andrews because when I read the first book “Valor on the move”, I remembered desperately wanting for a sequel of these two. But it has been “3 years” since the first book in the series and it was undeniably an enormous time gap between these two books. 🙂 If you are a new reader of this series, I seriously envy you for being able to devour both books in one sitting because I had to wait years to get this one. 😌 As a result, I couldn’t connect to Rafa and Shane again in the very beginning. I was pretty much really frustrated until the 60% mark in the book for Rafa’s ridiculous insecurities, his mother’s A-game bitchiness and secret service agents’ childish cold shoulder to Shane. 🤬 It is always so difficult to see your favorite characters’ supposed HEA get muddled and messed up again but Keira Andrews more than made up for it with the last 40% of the story. 👏 It was beautiful to see Shane and Rafa once again found their Ying and Yang balance again and how the presidential family finally warming up to Shane, basically how everything worked out in the end. 💙 And this book was scorching hot that my kindle seems to be burning up my fingers. 😂🔥 Keira Andrews writes one of the hottest, smokiest, most erotic gay love scenes and she was very generous with smut in this one. 😏 I guess, it more than made up for the very long-awaited UST from the first book. I definitely think this book would have been a 5 stars rating for me if I could just read two books straight rather than waiting years between them. Well, I couldn’t be happier for the epilogue and how Rafa took the initiative for putting the ring on. It was sweet, romantic, heart-warming and super erotic. So what’s not to like? 😉
4.25 Rafa loves being Shane’s baby stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

First of all, how is this book Redmond’s story when solid 3 quarters of this story is all about Blake and flashbacks on his past? 🙄 Sometimes, I just First of all, how is this book Redmond’s story when solid 3 quarters of this story is all about Blake and flashbacks on his past? 🙄 Sometimes, I just don’t understand authors on how they decide to write the blurbs. 🤔 So this is it, guys! I’ve finished the fifth and the last book *but I desperately hope this is not the last* of Tyger prince series. 😌 I have to say, although I love this book as I loved others, there’s not so much going on in this book.
There’s not much to write about Redmond and Commander Tallon’s characters since you have already read about them in the fourth book in the series and I much prefer the author wrote extra 50 pages in that one and wrapped up their story than continuing here since this book is definitely not about their story. 🙄 I love how we get the glimpses of Blake’s past and how he was first captured on Tygeria. 😉 How he first met King Davos and how these two fell in love, OMG, I just can’t get enough. 🤗 It’d be superb if the whole book is dedicated to Blake and Davo’s past rather than flashbacks of their past. And the plot on the new traitor who’s a sleeper cell in Tygerian palace, even that one is a bit too predictable. 😁 Overall, I really liked this book and how I get a bit of everything from our royal couples. I hope there will be more books in the future. Hopefully, Blake has six sons and only 3 of them have HEAs now so when the children became adults, we probably will have more of Tyger prince books. 😉
Favorite excerpts from the novel: 💙💜💙
“I won’t try to kill myself or hurt myself.” “Because you belong to me.” “Because I-I …” “Belong to me, little warrior. Say it.” “I belong to you,” Blake mumbled, his face flaming. “You’re my slave.” “I’m your slave.”
“You sleep with me, nobyo. If not in my bed, then on a pallet on the floor beside it, like you once did so long ago, but always with me. It’s been that way since the first night you ever spent with me, and that will never change.”
“My hand, Blake. It’s my touch that you need. Mine alone, and you may as well give in to it. Accept it. Accept me.” “Yes,” Blake said, sleep almost overtaking him. “My hand. Only mine.” He sighed as he snuggled against Davos’s chest and fell into sleep, totally exhausted. “Only yours.”
I’ll do whatever I can to make you happy for the rest of your life. If that means leaving you alone, then I will. If that means one day I have to give you up and find a way to let you go back home, then… I will. But it’s only you I want for my nobyo, you stubborn little human. Only you. And I won’t give you to someone else. Not ever.”
4.5 I spanked Blake’s bum bums so hard stars 😂😂😂 PS. In your face, buddy Lorraine !!! 😜😂😏 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💫

Why is it taking too long to finish?” and checking page count and how many percent left to finish reading it. Literally, from 75% to 100% .. it took me 3 Days. 😂 So .. yeah .. you get the picture.
I don’t even know how to describe the characters because there are too many unknown factors. Until 75-80% of the story, both MCs were not able to figure out their feelings. And everything is vague, sooooo vague and uncertain. I feel like this is an introduction of a promising novel and while this intro could be achieved attractively and effectively in 4-5 chapters, it was dragged along for 26 chapters. Literally, about 10 chapters were imprisonment of Taren during his stay on Phantom and on Ea’nu island without any relationship aspect or romance. Long and winded and boring conversations and unsorted feelings. I only truly loved this book until 13% of the book and I was really hooked until then. After that, eh .. you know the story. 😁

I’m really unhappy that this was my mischievous buddy, Lorraine’s first buddy read with me and it was such an unfulfilling read. 😭 I know lots of people love this book and I really wanted to love this book too but I just can’t. So much potential and yet, failed to deliver a good story.
2.5 I want more stars ⭐️⭐️💫
