Tempted By A Rogue Prince (2014) - Plot & Excerpts
This was a deep story in which both the hero and heroine have suffered greatly. I would caution anyone thinking this will be a light fantasy romance read. It is not. Not even close.SPOILER ALERT ***The sex scenes were few in number and the first one wasn't good. In fact, I felt a little nauseated on behalf of Rosalind, like she had been used and mistreated, though Vail is so screwed up, I am not judging him. It just wasn't....pleasant. Thankfully, their relationship became softer, more loving from there on.Despite some parts that made me uncomfortable, I still thought this book was very well written. The plot was good. And the characters' motivations made sense. Tempted by a Rogue Prince is the book that I wanted to read since I laid eyes on Kissed by a Dark Prince! Vail immediately caught my attention in this first volume and the fact that he's under the grip of a dark witch rekindled my interest in this character through the volumes of this series. If you've made the jump and tried to read this new series written by the talented Felicity Heaton, you and I know how the main characters in these stories are intense, ready for anything and especially endearing. I love the fact that Prince Loren and Prince Vail are elves and they are much like vampires on several points. Rosalind is a strong woman, but I thought she was the least confident female character among our heroines. I found her fears and vulnerability toward her fate very touching and I felt a stronger connection to her. Rosalind is a white witch, but the mere fact of being a witch will put her life in danger in Vail's presence. Vail really surprised me, I expected to see a man destroyed and annihilated by Kordula. Vail is tormented by his past and nothing seems to get him out of his torpor. The way toward the light and freedom is far away and hard to take; Rosalind will do anything to help, but all hope seems lost.Even at the end of this book, Vail is not fully saved and only time and Rosalind's love will overcome this turmoil. Vail is so deeply hurt that even if Rosalind is his fated mate, she can't (and sometimes won't) easily try to reach him, relieve him and even heal him. I like the fact that Felicity Heaton showed us that sometimes love is not everything, you have to devote yourself and learn to live with the past, your mistakes and that love can conquer everything with time. Vail makes me think a lot Zsadist in the BDB series by J.R. Ward! We also meet Fenix, a succubus touched by a curse that reaches his fated mate. I was interested in reading more about it and I hope to see him in future books! Tempted by a Rogue Prince is probably my favorite of this series and I recommend the whole series to all fans of paranormal romance that loves paranormal elements and supernatural creatures!
