The Rebel King by Kennedy Ryan ~ Blog Tour

“This is the future of romance.” -- Adriana Herrera, author of the Dreamers series

The Rebel King, the powerful conclusion to the All The King’s Men Duet, from USA Today bestselling author Kennedy Ryan,

is available now!

Ambition. Revenge. Love.

RITA® Award-winning author Kennedy Ryan delivers the gripping conclusion to the All the King’s Men Duet.

Raised to resist. Bred to fight. Survival is in my blood and surrender is never an option.

Though surrender is what Maxim Cade demanded of my body and heart, I had other plans. We were fast-burning fascination and combustible chemistry, but the man I trusted with everything was a trickster. A thief who stole my love. If what we had was a lie, why did it feel so real? The man I swore to hate will have it all, and wants me at his side. But power is a game, and we’re the pawns and players.

Facing insurmountable odds, will we win the world, or will we lose it all?

Excerpt

Her words break on a sob, and the elegant line of her shoulders trembles. “No one like you.” I palm her breasts, squeezing the tight nipples between my fingers. Her indrawn breath tells me she likes it. “Anything you want,” she pants, circling her ass on me. “Take it.” “I want today with you,” I say, changing the angle of my thrust slightly, but hitting a new spot that makes her moan. “I can’t.” I force myself to stop abruptly and start easing out. “No!” She reaches back and grabs my ass. “Don’t you dare.” I stop pulling out, but don’t move. She squirms, tries to grind on my cock, but I grip her hips, holding her still. “Son of a bitch,” she growls. “Finish me, Doc.” “No.” “Do you think I don’t feel how hard that cock is? You want this, too.” “Obviously,” I force my voice to casual, like it doesn’t matter to me one way or the other. “But I want a day with you more. What’s it going to be?” I push in and give her a quick, shallow thrust. “Oh, yes.” She starts circling her hips, and I stop again. “Bastard!” “I’ve told you my terms.” My cock hates me, silently cursing me in four different languages for not finishing this right now. “One day,” she concedes breathlessly. “I can give you one day.” I take off the reins and fuck her until we’re both shaking. We almost fall when our orgasms hit. I ease out, sit on the shower bench and set her on my lap. Greedy, thirsty, we kiss until my lips are numb, her fingers burrowing into my wet hair, my fingers tunneled into hers. I break the kiss, taking her face between my slick hands and searching her eyes. “One day,” I remind her, panting. She nods, sucking my bottom lip smiling. “One day.”

Elizabeth's Review

My rating: 5 of 5 stars - One of the Best 

Review Copy Provided by Author

This 5 star review is for the duet that includes The Kingmaker and The Rebel King....

If you have followed me for any length of time, you know the I DO NOT like duets. I have been burned so many times by them that I actively avoid them. Why then did I read this one? Simple - it’s Kennedy Ryan. Not only has she been a favorite author for a while, she is a thorough researcher and uses her platform to challenge readers social conceptions/biases without “preaching.” Ms Ryan has a unique talent for bringing issues to the forefront while also making every reader feel seen.

This duet has a suspense/intrigue element that is best experienced first hand, so in an effort to not give anything away, I’m going to tell you why I don’t like duets and how this one changes the game.

1) Does it REALLY need 2 books? In this case yes. The Kingmaker has the history of Maxim and Lennix that starts when she is 13. It is the book that answers the question of “can these two be a couple?” The Rebel King’s time line is much shorter, but asks the question of “now that they found each other, can they make it work?”

2) Drawn out or overdone sexy times for filler. Yeah, that doesn’t happen here. There are plenty of intimate moments between Lennix and Maxim, but they all help drive the story and confirm the relationship between the two. Some of their most intimate moments aren’t in the bedroom and have them fully dressed. The emotional connection between the two radiates off the page.

3) Drama for the sake of drama. Yes, there is plenty of drama here, but it’s never feels gratuitous. There were some surprises and some things that I saw coming, but how they were handled help show the depth of relationships and emotional growth on multiple fronts.

If you are looking for a light, quick read then this is not the duet for you. If you are looking for complex, unique characters facing challenges and changing dynamics then dive right in! I will tease you a little bit - I loved the ending of The Rebel King. It was the perfect balance of resolution and “what happens next?” That leaves the door open for the reader’s imagination to spin the story out.... or maybe there is more to the story?
