ohtislove 's review for:
Lords of Mercy
by Angel Lawson, Samantha Rue
I'm going with 4 stars for the story, 11/5 stars for the amazing spice.
What a payoff for the Story/Killian/Tristian/Rath trilogy. (I know there are more RofFU books coming, but not for these characters.) This was my favorite book of the series BY FAR. The whole truth is that although I read a lot of it I am not always a dark romance fan, so this book's shift away from the uncomfy abuse scenes of the prior books to just absolute smut and doting men was just the change I needed.
The smut in this book is top tier for any reverse harem fan! One on one scenes, of course, but the authors gift us with multiple spicy hot threesome and foursome scenes. There are no true crossed swords, but the men DO interact and express appreciation for each other in the group scenes, and there's no shyness when it comes to, uh, mixing fluids.
Each of the characters got their own unique development and character arcs. Killian's entire redemption arc is basically that he learns to go down on his woman and appreciate having sex with her when she's actually awake, but hey, we'll take what we can get.
Two critiques: listen to the other reviews, this book is LONG. Action packed, but long. The last four or five chapters are basically the trope, and while I appreciate that we got one last POV from each character as their lives shifted to the next phase, it also probably could have been summed up in a couple pages. Also, Story wins $50k and doesn't pay Rath back for the $12k he spent to save her??? And they're gazillionaires but nobody at any point just goes ahead and buys this man his dream piano?!?! I'm heartbroken.
