Yes, More Than a Slave delivers darkness and cruelty thus your regular romance reader after swoon-worthy ventures should steer clear. And by darkness I don’t mean ‘turn off the light, darling’. I can do romance when there’s darkness involved. I think I got sucked in by the review request itself with the promise of darkness ‘fit to my taste based on my blog’ to be delivered.

You may wonder why would I accept an ARC that quite clearly, going by the blurb, promises to be romance, especially since this genre wouldn’t be my automatic go-to area? Well… That’s a good question. In fiction roam the most vile and equally the most holy. … and honest it shall be… My most loyal followers know I have no issues with violence/gore/etc. I received an ARC of More Than a Slave through Inkitt in exchange for an honest review… Over time, she is able to penetrate his tough exterior, and begins to understand the struggle of a man who believes love is a weakness, but whose heart is now yearning for something unknown.Īs the two let down their walls and discover each other’s truths, will Aria be able to tame Alexander’s inner-beast? However, as she gets to know her new master, she realizes there is more to him than meets the eye. He is fiendish and handsome and as wicked as he is wealthy. When she is sold to Lord Anderson at an auction, she cannot help but be afraid. And now, Aria Starbird is his property.Īria has spent only a few months as a lowly slave, but already her happy childhood memories were starting to fade under the weight of her brutal existence.

Alexander Anderson has a reputation that would strike fear into the heart of the devil himself.
