Immortal Sentry by Eden Winters
4.0
I would like to thank GRR for the opportunity to read and review this ARC.
Stg a little Prince on the run, being protected by his servants after a coup kills his entire family, gets me in the feels every single time! Revenge regicide srsly gets my blood pumping because i live for the moment when the heir in hiding retakes their throne, while exacting bloody justice on the usurper king for killing off the true line of succession!
And while this was more plotty than sexy romance, it was still fun and flirty and hot when Eron and Kerric got their throbbing hearts on! Immortal Sentry was really more than just a romance, because the tumult of the past and the ramifications of magic to salvage the royal line in secret, played a huge role in the way this book ended with HEAs that made me happy! Shout out to the royal mage, Miisov, who was pretty awesome, and who bore the heavy cost of wielding magic that ensured Eron's reassuming the right to rule! Just the amount of suffering everyone had to endure, while waiting for retribution to be meted out was pretty sad at times to think about ngl.
So i really enjoyed this, but if you're looking for a sexy read you'll have to look elsewhere! This was a story that was more focused on the fantasy elements and the plot machinations of returning the rightful ruler to the throne. And while Immortal Sentry had some moments that choked me up a few times, and featured a romance that was more of a soft sweet addition than an all out narrative that's heavy on the spice, i thought this was an easy read, and compelling from beginning to end.
