Having joined in reading Alison's Ruthless Warlords series with book two, Savage Prince, I signed up as quickly as my fingers could glide across the keyboard to get a look at our next Alpha male and Ruthless Alien Warlord, Alexi Skolov.
What is the one thing a sinner can’t allow? Temptation. But Keira Sartin is all that and more.
If there's one thing we love when it comes to smouldering, towering, brooding alien Alpha males, it's one who thinks he's a sinner. And what's a sin without a little temptation? Cue, Kiera Sartin. Not the object of his mission's intention, she soon becomes that and he becomes something very forbidden to her in return. The pull is immediate for them both, and we were right there with them along for quite literally, the ride. Alison wasn't kidding when she said that this was the hottest book and Skolov brother yet. Woah boy!
A walking, talking, wet dream, she calls to every cell in Alexi’s messed-up, rule-breaking soul. Except she’s forbidden. Addictive. A distraction he can’t afford.
Not one for reading alien sci-fi romances, Alison is the soul exception to the rule for me right now and Broken Heir proves--as did Savage Prince--why if you're not a massive reader of this genre and its tropes, why you should be. Alison has written another gripping, action-packed, steamy as-all-get-out novel that still gives you the feeling of playing Sherlock Holmes while you read, trying to figure out the answer to the mysteries that are woven within the chapters before the answer itself is revealed. I myself tried to do this and once more I was delightfully unsuccessful in guessing what I tried to figure out before Alison decided it was time for us as readers to know. Brilliant stuff!
What’s the one thing a troublemaker can’t afford? More trouble. But Alexi Skolov is all that and more.
What is also brilliant, is the jaw-dropping, raw sensual steaminess that comes with Alexi and Kiera. I tell a lie, it's more than brilliant, it's out of this world. Pun fully intended. I know there's this topic of discussion going around in the book world about how an alien male with his larger than life ' other part can successfully mate with a human female, but I was not even remotely inputting my thoughts into that discussion here because--woah--there was no time to even think about it! Intense, raw, lip-bitingly good, I'm guilty and happily admitting so, that I did not just read those moments the one time. I went back and read them until I could read them no more which probably why it took me three days to complete this book. Like Alexi, I wasn't satisfied with just the once. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing well. Wink wink.
He’s beauty incarnate. Flesh and blood sin. Wild nights and dark pleasure.
Steam aside, you're getting a read well worth your time and money to invest in an author who puts her heart and soul into crafting a story that all can enjoy. When there were moments where Alexi and Kiera weren't doing the devil's tango, the storyline follows an extremely noble quest on both Alexi's and Kiera's parts, and the two joining forces to help each other complete their own goals they've worked so hard on before meeting, only shows that no matter if anyone is fated or not, there is a heart inside everyone no matter how much of a sinner or lost cause they think they are. There is hope and light at the end of every tunnel, and not only Alexi and Kiera prove that. The other characters we meet along the way show that as well, and have been written brilliantly to aid the overall journey of the storyline. There's no faulting Alison's talent for writing captivating, engaging and thrilling characters. Just one of the reasons I have come to love both her and her work.
It should be easy for them both: just stay away.
But running from temptation is hard. Avoiding trouble even harder—and sometimes it catches up to you, leaving you…
breathless,
begging,
Broken.
By the time I swiped the last page closed, I was by far ready to say goodbye to this latest novel in the series. Alexi and the gang were well worth the wait, and the reward at the end (you'll know when you get to it) was everything and more! The talent in the artist behind the creation did Alison's work so much justice, and captured exactly what I imagined that part of that scene to be like in my head. I've gone back to it several times to just marvel in it with zero shame.
Five brilliant stars for Alexi, Kiera and of course, Alison Aimes herself!
