Dark King by Kelsie Rae
4.0
Good but teasing
It was definitely a good ending to the story, with a few small things left open ended (these will be concluded in the next book but don’t affect Kingston’s and aces love story, which concluded in this book). Honestly, I really did like the storyline, all though it was predictable. The only thing I didn’t like was the lack of “steamy” scenes. I guess I just expected more in that sense? I mean, if the author can write about sex trafficking, murder, torture, etc, she should be able to give us a good bedroom scene, but it glazed over them. Kingston has some major alpha male vibes that can get you hot and bothered, but I was just left bothered by the lack of physical contact, and that’s just a personal preference so I don’t want to take stars off for that. I just felt teased lol the author did a great job of showing the attraction and lust between the characters, and even wrote scenes showing foreplay, but the moment it would actually be time to get down and dirty... the scene ended. WHAT. A. TEASE. Not everyone wants to read a bedroom scene, I get that. So again, I’m not gonna take off stars for that, but my recommendation for this author is to not leave us hanging like that again lol
