I love contemporary Royal romances. I have to say that this is one of the best I have read... i couldnt put it down... Even going so far as to sneek and read at work and forget getting a good nights sleep.....Bad me.....anyway the characters are very well written and fleshed out... I was drawn into all of their stories including the supporting Characters... I cant wait to read Bella's story , which I am starting right away..... Please Please write more soon.

700 pages of royal panty ripping. I liked the characters enough to push my rating up a star. The constant sex scenes were a bit much. I was like, "Oh look, they are f@cking again, and again and again" I may read the series again just to count the knicker killings. Having said that, the 3 part book is way better than 50 shades ever could be as there were no annoying "inner goddess" monologues. . ALOT of erotic sex talk though

3 1/2 ***

Enjoyable story if not a little predictable. Clara annoyed me through all of the Command Me and through about half of Conquer Me. Thankfully Alexander was quite the enigma. It took me a while to get into their relationship. Their connection was there, but it was almost all sexual. Not much an emotional one. Things definitely start to evolve mid way. They have many internal and external forces against them that become more complicated with secrets and lies. Can their love, that's borderline obsession, survive?

I have the complete saga of the Royals up to pre ordered Breathe me dec 14, 2020 and pre- ordered The March 16, 2020. I’ve fallen in love with all the characters can’t wait for Prince Edward continuing story as well. Geneva girl you are the bomb. You’ve made my heart skip beats but I won’t give away any spoilers. Buy the books.

The first "spicy" series I ever read, and I've been hooked ever since! The writing is very descriptive and well thought out, you can easily use your imagination to picture whats happening!

The bones of the story was really good but there was just so much sex in it.
I get that the Hero has some issues with sex, he's a playboy and he has had dark times in his past and that led to experimentation on his part and the heroine has issues due to her ex but it was pages and pages.
Their friend even comment on how much, making comment like them being at it like bunnies.
I just felt the issues could have been dealt with without so much of it and it could have even been a duet rather than a trilogy.
I liked the story set up.
I did wish the heroine put up more of a fight, it was a bit mills and boon, 'he touched her and she couldn't resist'.
She was strong in other areas.
In the series, there is ex drama, both sides.
No intimate scenes with anyone other than the Hero and heroine although he does explain at one point his darker side, which involved sex with a sub, but she asks, the woman is not named.
Lots of family drama.
Story extends over 3 books.

I read the entire collection over a 2 day period and overall I would have to say I enjoyed it. This is a love story that honestly should have never happened. But the spark, the chemistry and the pull was there from the very first stolen kiss between Alexander and Clara. Their worlds could not have been farther apart but somehow, and through much turmoil and heartache, they find their way.

As other reviewers have said prior, there are definitely some similarities to FSOG and I'm ok with that for the most part. The author handles these scenes in a slightly different way, which made it her own story. Alexander is not as broken as Christian Grey was and Clara is much more fierce and strong than Ana ever could be. What did irk me a bit was the need to put in way too many sex scenes. These two could not go without a shag for more than a few hours it seemed! And it felt redundant. The Crown Prince, Alexander, has quite the dirty mouth, which I enjoyed but some might be put off by his constant use of the 'C" word, whether spoken or written in a love note.

Maybe reading it all at once made it feel overdone at times and I found myself skimming over some parts. In addition, Clara ran away way too many times for my liking, even though I understood how hard it would be to become a part of a royal family, when you are just a commoner. However, there were many bright spots, especially Clara's boss Bennett, her future brother-in-law Edward, her bestie Belle and Belle's carefree Aunt Jane. These secondary characters added the perfect balance to the never-ending drama between our couple.

The last 20% was the best part and I couldn't have been happier with the ending. The epilogue sealed the deal for me and I have great affection for this duo.

I recommend this series and give it a solid 4 stars.

I really was intrigued by the first book in this series enough to motivate me to buy the whole set. I liked parts of the story line, but some things I did not personally take an interest in. The dramatic reaction of characters to each other at times grated on my nerves. There was definite chemistry and passion between Alexander and Clara throughout this tale. At times I felt that the intimate scenes overshadowed the actual events in the story line.
Clara and Alexander share undeniably tangible chemistry and a passionate kiss within minutes of meeting each other at a social event. Little did Clara know the fame of the person that she shared this moment with. Clara is then catapulted into a completely different world filled with secrets, paparazzi, and fame. Clara and Alexander are very conflicted and very passionate about each other. The sexual chemistry between them is off the charts. These things considered, it makes for a rocky ride.
I did enjoy reading this book and would recommend if you are looking for a very passionate, dramatic, and spicy (muy caliente) book. Happy reading!

I enjoyed this book but I felt like they used sex a lot to avoid or fix problems and it kind of got annoying. But other then that I enjoyed the story line and the steamy parts! So Alexander and Clara met at a ball. She didn't know he was the prince. But after she did everything was a mess after that and definitely a roller coaster. They fell in love. The king didn't approve because she was an American even though she was a citizen of England and was raised there. There were many people trying to break them apart. The king, pepper which was a nickname and one of Alexander's sisters friends, and also Clara's psycho ex Daniel. But they worked through it all and got their HEA. got married and had a baby girl. She was also crowned queen.

A modern-day adult fairy tale...

Wow, what can I say about about a story where the heroine is in love with a prince. Every little girls and big girls dream, I guess. However this prince was sexy, commanding, powerful, and a sex God. Let's not forget rich! A well written adult fairy tale full of mystery, drama, deceit, lies, loyalty, love, and SEX. You want be disappointed. Looking forward to more books by Geneva Lee.

FIVE STARS PLUS!!!!! I absolutely loved the Commanded by You Series!!! The characters Prince Alexander and Clara are on a constant emotional roller coaster. I really enjoyed the way Geneva Lee brought them both to life. I honestly had a hard time putting this series down. There was love, insecurities, friendships, heartache, mystery, deep sadness, it touched every emotion. Thank you Geneva, I will be doing a reread very soon!!!! I didn't want the story to come to an end!!!!

50 shades of grey is G-rated compared to this!

The characters are great, the story is simply inspired, and well yep it's also got some heavy erotica. The plots and sub plots are well written. I can't imagine anyone whom reads this tale would not have some spikes in blood pressure. I loved the collection and really appreciated the author's skill. As stated 50 shades of grey is a boring read if I had to rank it with this one.

Somewhat predictable

This was a good story however quite easy to predict what would happen. My sole reason for three stars is related to the use of the word "sex". I really hate when it isn't called what it is a pussy! Let alone the fact the word cunt was frequently used in the book but the word pussy was replaced. Why? If it's adult literature use the correct words to describe a body part!

I really enjoyed this trilogy, I was hooked from the beginning and I could not put it down. Clara and Alexander were totally made for each other, in and out of the bedroom (or hall, kitchen, bathroom, foyer etc) I loved Clara's best friend Belle, Norris is an amazing guard and loyal friend and Alexander's brother Edward is classic.
This was my first Geneva Lee read and it will not be my last, I cannot wait for Belle's story

WOW WOW WOWWWWWW!!!!

I will continue to say, "It is all in the details.". I don't think I have ever pressed my thighs together this much reading a book. This story can give you a serious fever. Alexander will make you sweat your fever out. He is straight up Alpha. Clara instinctively submissive to him. Their passion is raw and primal. It's absolutely delicious.

Rollercoaster

This was a fast paced, rollercoaster ride of a royal romance. I could have used a few less love scenes, but the story was interesting. The characters were confused and likable at times. The extreme attention getting activities were tedious by the end. The chemistry was hot. Good read.

This was so good, from the first encounter to the end. I love the give and take from Clara n Alexander. This is a hot and sexy read! I love sexy alpha men who finds the one woman who completes them. The story was sensual, explosive, and full circle. A must read. One of my favorites, can't wait to read the next book!!

Start of book one to end of the third, solid 5 stars!!

So glad I had this as a series and could just keep flowing to the next and next without having to stop and load the next book. This was hot and sexy like fifty shades but so many secrets like a typical royal family!!! So worth the time and lost sleep for this series!!!

Due to personal circumstances it took me longer to finish this then I would have liked. The most positive part is this series never lacked in a story line for me. Was they're a ton of sex? um yes, and it was well written too. Could we eliminated a few scenes sure but why? Overall a great series worth all 5 stars.

Wat een geweldige serie boeken waren dit. Liefde spanning en passie zit erin. Zo jammer dat er maar 3 delen zijn want had graag verder willen lezen. Hopelijk komt ze nog met deel 4 zou geweldig zijn. Ik ben verkocht voor deze serie.
