A review by readermonica
Honor Bound by Michelle Howard

4.0

World building is good in this start to the series. I enjoyed that Vaan is not a great lover in the beginning, but becomes a quick study when Mikayla isn't afraid to let him know that she is less than satisfied with his rutting. Vaan's issues are believable with the cultural differences described-even though it makes me think that there has to be an explanation at some point why Kabanian women seemingly don't participate or enjoy sex. 'Cause come on-poor women if that's true! I will definitely continue with this series. There are a few personal preference issues with Mikayla not using the best judgement at times, but it wasn't bad enough to make me dislike her. I listened to the audio version and the narrator, Michael Pauley, was enjoyable. I will look for more of his narrations.

More complete review to come.
