Nicholas (Lords of Satyr, Bk 1)

Helpful Score: 4


he last in fabled line of otherwordly aristocracy, the Lords of Satyr are born to wealth, power and a talent for sensual delight that mere mortals only dream of. Commanded to marry, these passionate men will travel to Rome, Venice and Paris - and along the way will explore desires both shamelessly wicked and blissfully divine.

HE HAD SWORN TO TAKE A PROPER WIFE, HE HADN'T BARGAINED ON MEETING HIS MATCH...

Nicholas looks very much like what he is - the handsome successful heir to a vineyard in Tuscany. But Nicholas is much more, for he is one of the last in an ancient line of satyr men. And the dying king of ElseWorld wants him not only to marry, but to wed one of the kings's own daughters - a half-human, half-faerie woman unaware of her heritage. Nicholas won't shirk his duty to produce heirs to guard his race's legacies, but he never plans to make his bride his only lover. A satyr's sexual hunger and sensual skills are legendary. One woman will never satisfy him.

Or so Nicholas believes until he meets Jane. As spirited as she is fey, as beautiful as she is innocent, she is nevertheless determined to make her new husband hers alone - and she's eager for him to teach her every deliciously carnal secret he knows...

************

This was definitely a good book. Lots of explicit sex. And I mean lots. As a debut (I think this was her first novel), Elizabeth Amber did an EXCELLENT job!

Lots of description, extremely likable characters, and somewhat evil (but not quite as bad as they could've been) villains.
