Before I get into each individual story in this boxset let me just say there's going to be another one right? Each of the stories were so smoothly written that unless you looked at name of the other on that certain story, you couldn't that these books were written by different authors. And all the men are pure alpha bada**es.
MERCILESS: House of Gravor ~ by Lara AdrianDevlin, that man/incubus is all alpha, "you're at Gravori House." He cast a nonchalant look around the room. "More specifically, you're in my bedroom." I loved how possessive he was of Nahiri, you just don't steal his woman, "go now. Tell the Three that I came to claim what they owed me," he growled. "If they come after this woman or anyone else in my family, they will answer to me. And there will be no mercy for them." I actually wouldn't mind another partial novella seeing what those two are up to.
SOULLESS: House of Romerac ~ by Donna Grant
Canaan he's one of those men that don't beat around the bush, "I need to gain my strength. The only way to do that is by having sex. Are you offering?" He's also so nonchalant about how many times he's had his woman (apparently Incubi (is that the right term for the species?) need to be careful about how many they have sex with the same woman or they mate with them) it's like he wanted it to happen, "nine," Canaan repeated. "I could've stopped at seven. I should've stopped at seven, but the need to claim her as mine was too strong." I really did like Canaan he surprised me.
SHAMELESS: House of Vipera ~ by Laura Wright
Even though I loved the other books in the boxset this one took my heart, or I should say Scarus did, actually Rosamund might have helped him a little with her straight forward ways, "yes, you a**hole," she said through gritted teeth. "I resist you. Let me go and find another. There are twenty-nine other females out there who want you. Want this." The moment I fell in love with Scarus would have to be the moment he accepted Rosamund's refusal and still acted like a gentleman, "you will not sleep on the floor like a dog, Rosamund." Scarus carried her to the bed and placed her down on top of the coverlet. "I won't touch you again. Nor will I make you scream or cry out." I loved his reasons behind getting what was his, "yes," he said, his jaw tightening. "And then you would've had to remain at the Harem. I couldn't allow another male to touch you." He leaned in and kissed the lower lip he had just begun stroking. "Only me, Rosa."
RUTHLESS: House of Xanthe ~ by Alexandra Ivy
This one I enjoyed I didn't make too many notes or highlights like the rest of the stories in the boxset mainly because well this one quote I have is all that needs to be said about Jian, "I can tell when a female has been thoroughly satisfied." He assured her, his smug satisfaction at her flushed cheeks and racing heart faltering as his gaze caught sight of the fading wounds that still marred the ivory skin. "I am, however, concerned that I was too rough." Even after all that sought out revenge Jian has heart and can be caring.
