Dark Prince Road #3
Oliver Von Bismark & Briar Rose Auer
It’s not a book, it’s a saga! Ninety-nine chapters of delicious story, full of angst with a taste of funny, two wonderful characters, a perfect balance of the ridiculously excessive wealth and the lack of love and recognition. I love when these two authors take their creativity and let it run wild because we are in for a lot of fun, emotion, and steam.
Briar was ridiculously neglected by her parents and always hungry for love. Hence, when Oliver gave her attention, she latched onto him, gave him endless hugs, and earned the nickname “Cuddlebug”. Oliver had a normal childhood, until a horrible accident made him feel worthless and undeserving, so he hid his persona behind a lackadaisy guy. And in the deepness of their hearts, they would never be complete without the other.
Abandonment, tragedy, guilt, and vengeance are behind most of the negative. Love, generosity, willingness to sacrifice, a search for love and sense of belonging are behind the positive. And we have a long and winding story that goes from the sublimely beautiful prose, to the ridiculousness of Romeo Costa buying DeLauren cars in every color so that Dallas always matched. Very deep and heartfelt messages were read and cried about, like:
“There has never been a moment in your entire life that you weren’t loved.”
I loved every page and every word, loved this couple who loved deep and hard and endlessly. Loved revisiting Dallas and Romeo, Zach and Fae, and all their antics and quirks.
