Phoenix Unbound by Grace Draven
4.0
I like Grace Draven's romances. This was a good slow burn captor/captive done right IMO. I like that the hero doesn't find the heroine attractive in the beginning and grows to see her beauty.
It's not 5 stars for me because I thought the plot was lacking. It all just seemed to go too easy for them. I thought when the hero faced the cousin who betrayed him (I'm avoiding their names because I can't spell any of them lol), there would be some twist - like the cousin poisoned the dagger and she would have to do some illusion to save him. But it was just an honest fight. And then I thought oh maybe the cousin alerted the queen and she would be ready for their attack. But they were able to execute their plan perfectly and no one important died.
I'm excited for the next couple - I liked the heroine we were introduced to in this book.
