Lost Lords of Radcliffe #3
O Jogo do Amor (Homens Perdidos Livro 3)
Bryce Blair tinha apenas cinco anos quando a sua família foi destruída. Era demasiado novo para perceber o que aconteceu. Cresceu como órfão, habituado a ser considerado um caso de caridade. Mas no seu íntimo sempre sentiu que um destino superior o aguardava. À medida que os anos passam e ele começa a investigar o passado, o que descobre muda o seu futuro. Pois ao saber que o pai fora um destemido explorador, Bryce decide seguir-lhe as pisadas e rumar ao Egito.Sua Alteza Real, Katarina Morovsky, é uma princesa sem reino. O seu pai fora rei de um pequeno país europeu, Parthenia, mas após a sua morte, a coroa foi usurpada por um primo que deixou Katarina sem nada. Temendo pela sua segurança, a jovem fugiu do país e fixou-se no Egito. Mas uma vida em fuga é uma vida perigosa. E quando Katarina percebe que precisa de um guarda-costas corajoso e de confiança, Bryce Blair parece ser a melhor opção. Bryce fica fascinado pela bela e misteriosa Katarina e não consegue recusar o seu pedido de proteção, mas não é fácil ser guarda-costas de uma jovem princesa. Mais complicado ainda é amá-la. Com um trono e uma fortuna em jogo, ceder à paixão é perigoso. Mas Bryce Blair está habituado a correr riscos. E nunca aceitará uma derrota.

Assim cheguei ao fim da história dos irmãos Blair... O fim por agora, pois a verdade é que sinto que apesar de ter sido o final (e este ter sido bonito), a verdade é que ainda ficou por ver o depois...o que ocorre após o epílogo e o derradeiro reencontro. Consigo imaginar algo belo, mas desejo ver a verdade, contudo para tal terei que ler os restantes livros em inglês, pois a saga parou de ser traduzida...tristeza 😭 ainda assim estou feliz por todos os irmãos terem tido a sua história, por tê-los conhecido a todos, por me ter apaixonado por esta família incrível ❤️
Neste livro conhecemos verdadeiramente o Bryce, o mais velho dos irmãos e o legítimo Conde de Radcliffe. Adorei o facto de querer entender quem era o pai para tentar criar um laço com ele, tornar-se explorador como ele e partir rumo ao desconhecido - mostra uma faceta intrépida e uma garra surreal (garra essa que é de família, diga-se de passagem). Se não fosse ter partido em viagem, nunca teria ido parar ao Cairo onde se tornou um guerreiro, e onde conheceu a Katarina...
A Katarina está em fuga com os irmãos e precisa de ajuda, é então que surge o Bryce e a vida dos dois nunca mais será a mesma.
O romance é incrível, como seria de esperar - e o curioso neste casal, é que ambos sabem que existe uma forte atracção entre eles, ambos querem, mas ambos evitam por não se considerarem dignos (isto devido à classe social). Existem muitos jogos políticos e golpes de estado que moldam o modo como as personagens vêem o seu futuro - uma história que é muito mais do que parece e com ainda mais segredos do que os livros da saga até então.
Não sei o que diga mais sem ser - leiam esta saga, por favor! É incrível, uma aventura sem igual - muito mais do que um simples romance, são livros com um plot muito bem construído e delineado, mistério e intriga que envolvem o leitor a cada página que passa, e claro personagens riquíssimas e apaixonantes... Imperdível. Já tenho saudades dos homens perdidos ❤️❤️❤️

Adorei acompanhar a história dos irmãos Blair!! E o final é bem emocionante!! Foram três livros cheios de aventuras, as histórias bem construídas e nunca aborrecidas. Já percebi que existem mais dois livros que vão acompanhar duas personagens secundárias e bem carismáticas. Vamos aguardar. Espero nesses livros ficar também a conhecer a história de Anne ... ela e o seu par são no mínimo curiosos.

Gostei muito... Que final foi aquele? Raios, queria mais, queria, queria, queria tanto ver aquela "corrida"... Que cruel a autora... :(
será que vamos ficar a saber o que aconteceu? Será que no último livro da série, saberemos? Oh... :/

Have your hanky ready for the ending...
I loved Bryce instantly but it was tough finding something about Katarina that I could like. It was when she was with Bryce, or her younger brother and sister, that Kat rather than "the Princess" came through. By the end of Kat and Bryce's story not only was I cheering them on but that of Nicholas and Isabelle, Kat's brother and sister. Those two don't have much in the way of story but they are vibrant enough to call attention to themselves.
This is the last book in the trilogy of The Lost Lords of Radcliffe. However, there is a surprise story of the rogue Chase. I just bought that book so I am off to read it.

This is Bryce's story and a reunion of the entire Blair family. It's also one of love, triumph, revenge and victory. Well written with lots of excitement, betrayals and love. Don't miss this 3rd book in the Lost Lord's series. I liked it because I enjoy series involving siblings and this group is especially charming and dashing. Of course happy endings are a must. The story reflects Cheryl's consistent writing style of lady in distress etc. But I found it to be an enjoyable read and as with her other books I find them hard to put down. I am starting on book 4 of this series "Scoundrel". I can't wait to see what happens next! Recommended for anyone who likes a light enjoyable read with adventure and romance.

Hearts Demand by Cheryl Holt
I loved this trilogy! The style of Ms. Holts writing is just wonderful! She is an amazing writer the story of Kat and Bryce was great! So full of adventure and intrigue! It kept me enthralled! I would like to know about the brother that came back from Australia with his mother. Was she pregnant when she got transported? Is he a full brother or half?? I would also like to know if Nicholas ever gets his crown back and I would like to see Kristofferson and Pippa get what's coming to them! I would like to see at least one more book to tie up the loose ends! Maybe more there is Katherine too! I loved it!

I would love to give this five stars and would have if it didn't end so abruptly and did not let is know what happened when the mother's showed up at the castle I know this was supposed to be a trilogy but I really hope that Cheryl Holt writes a follow up perhaps using the fourth son or Katherine to let us know what happens.

Awesome
I just loved this series. I am hoping that there will be a fourth book to follow with the mother's story and the young man in black? I recommend all of Cheryl Holt books to everyone. They are must read books.

Outlandish excitement and thrilling love story.
My favorite book of Mrs. Holt so far. Children separated at very young ages, vows to find each other. Not only do they accomplish that, there is more adventurous challenges to find and rescue Blyth's forever love.

Great
I had a few moments when I was lost, but I'm a true can fill the end. I always want a book to continue and this better be one of them.
