When he kissed me, I was shocked. He was a stranger and still so familiar. It wasn't until I woke up to my picture splashed on the cover of tabloids that I realized I knew who he was.
Prince Alexander of Cambridge.
Royal bad boy.
Exiled heir to the throne.
He isn't Prince Charming. He's controlling. He's demanding. He's dangerous. And I can't say no to him.
We both have secrets—secrets that could tear us apart or drive us closer together—and as the paparazzi exposes each one, I have to decide just how far I'm willing to go for King and Country.
For readers 18 and up due to mature, erotic scenarios.
Formerly titled For King and Country
I'm not sure who doesn't love a hot and steamy novel with a prince at the center of it all. This book definitely delivered on that aspect. There was a bit too much back and forth between the Prince, Alexander, and his commoner affair, Clara, but somehow they just work together. There's a bit too much drama involving, mostly, the royal family but aside from that it was not so bad. Let's be honest, we're really here for the epic sex between the two, so not too much matters in the grand scheme of things! That being said, I didn't love that the story here is quite basic and minimal at best. It made for an easy to get through read but left me wanting more! I totally hated the cliffhanger ending but was lucky enough to just jump into Book #2!
Alexander had the world at his feet and me on my knees until secrets tore us apart. I should stay away from him. I should run. But I'm addicted to him...to the pleasure and the pain.
He warned me about his dark side...about his past. But I have a dark side, too. Together we'll conquer our demons...if we don't destroy each other first.
Love doesn't always conquer all, but it can Conquer Me.
Conquer Me is available for purchase:
You definitely have to read Book #1 to get into this second book right off the bat. Maybe it's because it felt like everything that was an issue in the first book is still an issue in the second but I definitely felt myself rolling my eyes at the lack of resolution between the two. In more than one instance, I found myself thinking to myself, "exes are exes for a reason...usually the same reason will come up again the second, third and fourth time around".
I hope the last installment of this series will bring everything together and tie the package together neatly. I didn't LOVE the direction this book headed--not that it wasn't stupid sexy without disappointment (yeah, if it's possible, I found Alexander even hotter in this book than the first!) but part of me wanted a bit more from this book.
