Rate this book
Here comes the bride...
He was like a drug, and at twenty-four, perfectly able to keep supplying her however much she needed.
Having secured herself a man, Victoria must continue on with her plan to get her inheritance. But before she can get down the aisle, she needs to settle Cormac and James into her life and navigate her own place in their little family dynamic. However, first she has to face down her grandfather, the King of Avalone, and the rest of her family.

All dressed in white...
'Princess, you can give it any other label you want, you still bought and paid for me.'
Being on the top floor gives Cormac both the air he needs to breath and the heightened sensation of being a fish out of water, but having held his head high against O’Malley he’s determined to settle into this crazy new world he’s entered. But when he realises that O’Malley isn’t going to let go, he’s got another choice to make…

Join Cormac and Victoria in Taking Him, the second part of their journey together, as they learn the ways of the heart and that perhaps marrying for money isn’t the only reason to marry…

Taking Him, is the second part of Victoria and Cormac's story in The Royals of Avalone universe. It contains some strong language and scenes of a sexual nature. Note: this is not a standalone book, but the second book in a trilogy of books.

About the author

E.V. Darcy

12 books11 followers
E.V. Darcy is not my real name, but as I taught High School when I began my writing career, and those pesky kids have a way of finding things, I thought better safe than sorry!

I live in the north of England with my husband and rather large -- and very spoilt -- dog, Jabba, who we rescued in 2015.

In 2009 I graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Imaginative Writing from Liverpool John Moores University. I then went on to teach high school maths - go figure!

When I'm not writing you can find me procrastinating by binge watching my favourite T.V. shows, playing computer games, or walking my much loved dog, who is my baby!

This second part in this trilogy is heartwarming, romantic and at times laughable.

Cormac is still the protector and tries to protect Victoria at all times, even from her grandfather the king!
Victoria turns into a less stoic woman and can show herself more and more. Despite her insecurities, she grows into a character who cautiously dares to go against protocol.

And then James, a great youngster who provides hilarious moments. So is the part where Victoria throws her wedding bouquet. Great description of the scene where the women fight over the bouquet.
But for all the good that happens, O'Malley hasn't forgotten the deal between him and Cormac

Highly recommended

The Royals of Avalon series. This story progresses nicely in part two! Even better than the first!

Cormac and Victoria may be learning that a marriage of convenience may in fact turn into more!

Not sure what Darcy's end game is for these two, but I'm in it until the end!

Great story!

In this second book, Cormack and Victoria have decided to take the plunge to take her life back. But the mistake that Cormack made comes back to haunt him as their relationship blossoms into more than either one realizes in this fun, interesting and intriguing story.
