Review:  Helios is under constant pressure from his council; he has secrets that he has to hide and his memory is still patchy.  The only one that he knows he can trust is Griffin, his lover and consort. Griffin tries his best to help Helios out but now he feels Helios pulling away from him, keeping secrets.   Now he is beginning to doubt Helios’s feelings for him.

This is a fantastic second book where we can see the relationship being tested as they both face the realities on their new home-world. Griffin wants to protect Helios and help him and love him, but when he finds out that Helios has been keeping secrets from him he begins to doubt Helios’s love and trust.  Griffin is keeping a secret of his own; one that devastates him every time he thinks of it.  How can he tell Helios when he himself cannot even bear to think of it? Helios loves Griffin but in his role as King he can’t tell him everything.  He’s also being pressured to marry and produce more children and the council is trying to refuse his wish to marry Griffin.

This is a story filled with doubts, suspicions, danger, intrigue, love, sadness, happiness, passion and secrets, lots and lots of secrets. This is a really well written story that will make you want more.  The plot is great, the characters fantastic, the danger and intrigue brilliant and the struggles that these two men face realistic to the storyline. I don’t know if Belinda McBride has any more stories planned for this series but I sure hope she does as there are a couple of characters that I want to find out more about… So pretty please with icing and a cherry on top. J

I will recommend this to those who love hot passionate love, danger, fantasy, intrigue, futuristic, space opera, loads of sexy gorgeous men and a really great fight.
