Review: Each book in Royal Mates, Love’s Diamond collection features a different romantic couple. To enjoy the overall story arc and crossover characters, I would recommend reading the series in sequential order. There is nothing better than a good fantasy romance with two gorgeous men involved. There is just something truly special about these books and this one even more. It had captured me from the moment I started reading and kept me spell bound. Normally when one is reading a novel they would get up and do something for a bit before finishing but this story just would not let me leave. It was like I just had to know the ending. I had to see the happiness that these two men deserved.

Duncan was a prince from Sanzel and has come to Earth to find his aheri. He is afraid though because his powers are so strong and he has no control over them. He had even hurt one of his brothers, although he healed him to an extent he feared that he would always hurt those that he loved.

He sees his Michael at the diamond field and notices that he is injured. He manages to heal him a bit but also notices the pain in his man’s eyes. He feels what he is feeling and if he goes forth, they will just get stronger. He worries that his size will make him unable to be loved. That his man would never want a man like him.

Michael had been born into a family that had not loved him and even more when he came down with the mumps. He had gone to live with a foster mother that was a true mother to him. She had told him one day that he would meet a great man, a gentle giant, and one that would need his love. He had not believed her, that is till the diamond field.

He looked up into the stands and there he was. By sight, they start the bonding, by touch it deepens and once sex is completed, they will be forever husbands. He had told Duncan about the mumps and how he would never have a child but what they had not known was Duncan’s powers would heal them both.

But like most relationships it only truly works when there is complete communication and not to take things out of context. These two have that difficulties but their love will show them the way. They just have to learn to trust in their love for each other and to stop being so damn stubborn.

There is nothing better to me than a story where one of the men can have a baby. I actually get a kick out of that. Too bad that doesn’t happen in our world, talk about a pay back. I love most anything put in front of me to read, but this one is probably up in my ranking.

I love how they have so much love for each other that you can see it in a look, the way they touch and the air around them just makes it feel like they are the only two in the world. You can usually tell when an author puts their heart into their work and this was one of them.

I would definitely recommend reading this. It will give you gorgeous men, tender gestures, a bit of angst and pain, passion and heat, a bit of danger, some very hot sex and happily ever after. It gave me that and so much more.

I guarantee that this book will be one of your favorites. It is just the way it is told that makes it even more special in my eyes. They meet, but are both full of fear. However, they take the chance at happiness. I loved it and look forward to reading the next story.

Blurb: Roger Newcomb has had his fill of men who don’t want a committed relationship. He wants one man to love and have a family with. It seems that he is alone in his quest for true love.

Prince Kendrick Sorenson knew that Roger was his aheri from the moment their eyes met and their souls connected. Roger is the perfect mate for him. But Kendrick is a broken man who cannot give Roger the future he deserves or the family he desires.

Spending time with Kendrick has torn down all of Roger’s barriers. He knows nothing about Kendrick’s royal lineage or that the men of Sanzel can have babies. All he knows is, this strong soldier belongs to him. Kendrick insists that there will be no kids in their future and leaves, making Roger decide to move on to a new life in Colorado. It will take more than magic to make things right. It will take a miracle.

Review: This is book four in this series and they should be read in order. Not only will it help you understand what is going on but also it will give you an insight into each character. You will fall in love with each person in these amazing books. Lyssa has a wonderful gift that I hope she will always keep on writing.

I love Kendrick and Roger. They have both been hurt maybe not physically but mentally and emotionally.

Roger has a way with children and in his entire life. He has always wanted children in his life. However the men that he had dated never wanted children or just wasn’t what he wanted as a life partner. He had asked his best friend and she had agreed till one day she shows up and tells him that she has met a wonderful man and was already pregnant. He felt so much sorrow in his heart that he was losing again. Thinking about adoption might be his only way. That is until he met Kendrick. However, after one fantastic night with him, he finds out that children are not in Kendrick’s future. He didn’t ask the normal questions but felt like giving up.

You can tell that communication is definitely not in their lives at this point. Kendrick was a Prince from Sanzel. And all men on Sanzel had the ability to become pregnant. However when he was younger his organ’s that could make it where he would be able to have children were damaged. He always knew that he would not be able to have them. That is until two Legari injured him to the point of death. Roger saved him and brought him back. He healed him in more ways than one. He had given him the gift to have a child.

It says that it will take more than magic to fix their problems though but a miracle. However, things had gone wrong and it took them both to fix it all. I loved this series and cannot wait to get my hands on the next book. It caught my attention from the start and kept it all the way to the end. I would recommend reading this if you love the paranormal worlds, hot and sexy men, slight arguments, fierce passions, dangers, and excitement.
