Eventide

by Darragha Foster

Prince Hlini is a man’s man. He enjoys riding, archery and killing animals in days-long hunts with his courtiers. He is also royal pain in the ass—literally. His voyeuristic and sodomite penchants have kept him much too busy to find a suitable wife in which to sprout his noble seed—because it’s safer to make love to page boys and stable-hands than it is to produce a child who will likely someday poison him to usurp his throne. Prince Lin also suffers from a tad bit of paranoia. There is one woman whose tremendous beauty (and delicious potatoes) has caught his eye…Sigyn of the garden corner. But greeting her from horseback is about as close as he’s ever been.

Sigyn is the daughter of the village witch and the village undertaker. She is of the lowest caste in the kingdom, for she works on her knees in the dirt, mixing in compost created by her father from the burned ashes of the kingdom’s dead. Still…she has the most successful vegetable stall in the realm. People come from far and wide to buy her fruit and veg. With strength, beauty and a height most women will never see, Sigyn could have many suitors—all lower class, uneducated dirt-farmers. She wants more from life. She wants to be king.

I was originally pissed with this book and felt that it didn't seem to have a purpose after reading it. That really wasn't fair or true. It just didn't end the way I would have prefered.

The heroine sets out to save the Prince who apparently isn't worth saving. I kind of still expected a love story to bud between the two but the author had a whole other plot twist in mind for both of them. There was plenty of erotic scenes including girl on girl and ogre on human action.

This was actually a pretty good story, just not the paranormal romance that I was hoping for. The Prince was kinda goofy, but likable. The ogres were funny and very very horny. I only rated this a three star cause it didn't end the way I would have liked but it was an interesting read that held my attention

This book was so out of my element. It took me so much by surprise that I am giving it 3 stars.
Even though this kind of tale isn't my style. But it got me enthralled from the beginning to the end.

This was actually a rather interesting surprise and for a free read, not bad at all. Definitely a fantasy erotic novel with an interesting happily forever. I was thrilled that the heroine was a woman of color, set out to rescue a spoiled and sexually voracious prince in the hands of two lusty ogresses. My only quibble is the use of modern terminology in a fantasy setting. Such modern language is jarring and should never be done.

This book was interesting and had one heck of a plot twist! It wasn't so bad to read and I surprisingly enjoyed it. Though it was a little short for my liking.
