So glad I decided to read Children of Dynasty!
I was hooked from the first page.
Forbidden love, rivalries, mystery, and a lot of steam... the book had it all.
Rory captured my interest from the get go and I found myself pulling for him to break away from his chains and be his own man.
Mariah also kept my attention and I ended up riding the roller coaster of her emotions with her.
The love scenes were steamy, the heartbreak touched me, and the drama has my gut clenching and my attention the entire time.
I really enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more from Ms. Carroll.
