A review by offmyredcarpet
Mistral by Stella Frost

5.0

I love when an author creates a nonexistent world that I could envision being plausible and want to be a part of; Rogues of the Zathari series is definitely one of them. The author does an excellent job of weaving world building and culture throughout the narrative. With each book we get a little bit more.

We learn in book 1 that Zathari women are being abducted into sexual slavery and this is their rescue with Mistral leading the way by infiltrating an auction and purchasing a human woman along the way both as cover and as a rescue. He plans to send her home but she wants to help him bring her captors down and she has inside knowledge that can help. He might also become quite smitten with her in the process.

Absolutely adore this series. The author blends dark + gritty with hope filled romance so well. I’ve also reviewed Havoc and Viper so feel free to check those out as well.

Fated mates // HEA // dual pov // found family // touch her and die // bondage kink // The plot centers around sex slaves (and their ultimate rescue) so please expect their abuse to make an appearance.
