A review by amanda_kt
Taken by the Horde King by Zoey Draven

4.0

These stories have gotten increasingly longer, more complex, and emotional. Wrune has been raised since birth to be the strongest horde leader of his time, that love is a weakness and a weapon. Watching him push through past indoctrination and come to terms with his feelings for his fated mate, Mina - ultimately groveling for her to give him another chance - was perfection.
The betrayal and abuse Mina experienced in the first half of the book was brutal - the despair and exhaustion seeped into the writing. And the pair of them stumbling into trust and love? Angsty epic romance perfection.
