Editorial Reviews

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"A perfect follow up to Blood for Ink - Scottish lass Blair is stubborn and tough, determined and brave - and the only woman for Ash. Between France and Scotland, Blair shows even more grit than previous heroine Livvy. If you liked the first book, be sure to read this one." ~Megan Tischner

Ravishingly romantic...with nary a sexual encounter to titillate.

Refreshingly sexy with exhilarating dialog and action. Can’t wait to read the next installment...and the first!" ~Roclady

Love this series!

This is the second book in this series about the "Four Kings" - fast friends that are more like brothers. This book tells the story of the rescue of their friend, Northwick, and the young woman that joins forces with them. Her brother is also being held by the same kidnappers and Ash falls for the young woman he only knows as "Scotia", who then abruptly disappears.

Ash spends the next two years trying to forget about her and takes the ownership of an estate in Scotland, only to find her once again.

I love anything L.L. Muir creates!

Another King falls

I enjoy historical romances and am finding this series quite enjoyable. There were a few minor spelling/grammatical errors but they in no way detracted from the story. The H, Ash, is one of four friends known as the 4 Kings. Their story begins in book 1, Blood for Ink, which sets up the backdrop for book 2 and Ash's story. There were minor characters introduced in the first book who reappear here so, while these can be read on their own, it's best to read them in order. The heroines are strong willed and advocate for those unable to obtain justice for themselves. The heroes (the 4 Kings) are fair minded, ready to help those in need and take longer than their friends to find out their lady love's secrets. All of this, mixed with entertaining discourses between H and h make for enjoyable and entertaining reading.

Lovely

Lovely fun read! Another great L.L. Muir series! Her stories are always shorter then my usual read but together the series always makes up for it!

Loving these stories

So happy that Ash has found his love. Great story writing … kept me on the edge of my seat until the very end and everything fell together… love the brotherhood and the humor of the four kings

Good story, poor editing

I'm glad I kept trying to read this book, as the plot was entertaining and full of action. However, the beginning of this book had huge gaps from one page to the next. It was hard to tell if you were missing part of a sentence or several sentences.
