Fallen Prince by Julia Sykes
5.0
I am always a fan of dark romance and when a friend recommended I read Julia Sykes, I thought to myself, “Say less.” I grabbed Fallen Prince since the third in the series comes out later this month and was not disappointed. While her other titles have a slightly different theme, this is the story about a broken man from a dangerous and broken family. Seeking answers, he stumbles onto a woman – though innocent, young, and quite naive – is also not weak. Their chemistry is hot and their story is full of tantalizing plot threads.
Max Ferrara kidnaps Allie looking for answers. As the daughter of the mayor, he’s hoping she might have the answers he needs. Her father sent most of his family to prison a decade ago and now Max is the black sheep of the family. They start out as enemies, but with each encounter, they find it harder and harder to stay away. Kisses become more until the reality of their situation sets in and things take a dangerous turn. The past starts to reveal itself and changes everything.
I really enjoyed this story, though it was a little New Adult for my usual tastes. It’s a yummy dark and dangerous read, but most of the story is spent setting the stage for the rest of the story. I loved how Allie could see beyond Max’s fierce and scarred appearance. It will be interesting to see how Allie changes in the next two books as she learns more about the past and their families. This book left me with more questions than answers and is book 1 of 3 in a trilogy. I can’t wait to see where this dark romance takes Max and Allie.
