I've been freed, but freedom comes at a cost! I have to protect the other heirs and the love of my life so that means I will have nothing to do with them. I am already battered, bruised and broken but Ash's unrelenting love will be the thing that pushes me over the edge. With parents who gave me away because i'm female, torturers and kidnappers that have my life in their hands and their secret boss who is hiding so deep higher powers could not find them, three boys who love me like a sister and another who is desperate for me to love him, never mind they are highly trained killers! my life this year is going to be one hell of a rollercoaster, lets hope it doesn't come of the tracks.
*ARC received in exchange of an honest review* An amazing story of survival and protection of loved ones. Some special soldiers / heirs are there to protect everyone but during that they get trapped as well. It's the story to escape the demons and finally letting your people in.
I loved the spirits of the heirs. Their brotherhood too is something to look forward to.
“GO! GO! GO! Ash shouts and we all run down the hill, pulling out guns, I kick down the front door and start shooting the assholes behind it.
Phase two of my reading books that I wouldn’t normally pick sees me dipping into the fast-paced world of a bunch of young spies who are rich brats and at least one of them is a popstar. The Storm Legacy: Broken is the second book in a series but it is easy enough to pick up and get caught up in the action.
The ‘Heirs’ as the group are known are bad-ass young agents who think nothing of going into a foreign country, shooting up the baddies and saving slaves on an hour’s notice. The fight and battle scenes are pleasing for anyone who likes action violence even if they are brief (I’d have liked more time spent in the heat of battle).
The plucky heroes spend most of their time when not saving people or taking down despots drinking coffee and shopping online. Their relationships are complicated – due to events in book one which left one of the main characters captured and being abused. Some of the scenes might need trigger warnings with sexual abuse, and a wince inducing revenge just one of the elements.
Along with the youth speak and banter, there are some deeper emotional foils – like exploring whether true love survive after one of the parties is horribly broken? And even what it might take to make a life-long commitment at such a tender age.
There are also some steamy and detailed sex scenes to go along with the hedonistic lifestyle and occasional world saving jaunts. So this probably isn’t a book for the puritanical minded.
The action cracks along at a good pace and I found myself caught up in the world of the Heirs. Can certainly imagine this becoming a fun TV show – think love island mixed with mission impossible and you’ll have some idea…
