When Real Life Gets in the Way of Blogging.I’m diving right into book two, The Rebel King. The Kingmaker ends – as all good books that are the first in a duet should – on one heck of a cliffhanger. This absorbing story left me eager for more. Maxim’s family feud adds another excellent dimension to the plot.Īs expected, Kennedy Ryan’s use of figurative language enriches each page. Their chemistry in and out of the bedroom set my Kindle on fire. These are two highly intelligent, influential, and passionate people. However, there are so many additional aspects of the story to enjoy, not the least of which is the sheer magnetism between Maxim and Lennix. I will say that the speeches about conservationism and the plights of Native Americans are highly educational but become redundant at times. Maxim is passionate about climate research and building an empire that revolutionizes ways to protect the environment. Lennix is determined to fight for the rights of all marginalized people, but particularly Native Americans. Lennix and Maxim are both intense activists. First, because Maxim is seven years older than Lennix, who is 17 when they meet, and later due to lies, grudges, and ambition. They meet several times over the course of a decade and a half, but the timing is never right for them to be together. Maxim is instantly drawn to Lennix’s fearlessness and commanding presence. In fact, I wasn’t sure The Kingmaker would appeal to me, but knowing what a versatile storyteller Kennedy Ryan is, I was excited to see what she had up her sleeves. Though she tries to hate me, too, the inexorable pull between us will not be denied.Īctivism, while admirable and essential in the real world, isn’t something I would think to base a fictional romance around. I lied to have her, and will do anything to keep her. But my family stole from hers and my father is the man she hates most.

From the moment we meet, something sparks between us. I have rules, but Lennix Hunter is the exception to every one of them.

At odds with my father, I'm determined to build my own empire. My path takes me far from home and paints me as the black sheep. In a world of haves and have nots, my family has it all, and I want nothing to do with it. Raised to rule, bred to lead and weaned on a diet of ruthless ambition. Rita Award-winning author Kennedy Ryan delivers the epic first installment of the All the King's Men Duet.
