A review by storiedconversation
Claimed by the King by Lorelei Moone

5.0

I received this book for free from in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.


This was a very sweet read. There is a bit of mystery in the prophecy that comes from the elders. I really liked Kelly. She was being sent to her death (so she thinks) and isn't planning on accepting it like it's no big deal. She has her plan and I think that goes to show more about her and her character than anything else. She doesn't rally fit into her village and as the story unfolds you find out more why.
Broc is the king and needs to take a mate which is what the Reaping is all about for his people. he hates the Reaping and would love nothing more than to do away with it but his people need it if they are going to survive. From the moment he sees Kelly there is something about her that draws him in. I loved him as a character. As a king he follows his instinct and heart even when it would seem he is being naive.

Both characters were well written and I am interested in what happens with Tarq and the mysterious mermaid found as well as Rhea. She was so tough but I have a feeling she has had to be. While sweet Bree made the moments with her much more real. She was so interested to learn about humans but had strong opinions of her own.
