Dearly Despised
by Alessandra Hazard
This book was a real let down from the fascinating world created at the start of the series.
Warrehn returns to his kingdom to find the woman who killed his parents and her son ruling in his stead. He can’t kick them out since the people love Samir, but he’s looking for proof of the murderess’ guilt.
Samir doesn’t like his mother’s scheming, but wants to stay in the loop to protect Warrehn and his Mom. She creates a clone of Warrehn’s Dad, which is against the law, and makes no sense in the plot, even when it’s relevant at the end of the book.
Between a love drug mistake and a toxic traumatic relationship of the mens’ parents, there’s little to make them a healthy couple. The intimacy and emotion are only clear at the end, the rest is a strange mix of obsession and anger.
The end is both abrupt and ridiculous, Warrehn’s focus on justice turns on a dime, and a happy ending is superficially reached.
