The Husbands by Naomi Valkyrie – Review by Jenni Bishop

The Husbands by Naomi Valkyrie
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Naomi usually writes paranormal supernatural fantasy. The Husbands is her first attempt at a contemporary romance. As I have always said love is love and as always Naomi doesn’t shy away from and writes about what is not always considered the norm. It is a short read but one that definitely brings all the senses to life. It takes you on a rollercoaster ride with emotions. The tone of the story is full of push and pull, of angst and longing, hopes and fear, heartbreak and heartache, guilt and passion. Full of lies and secrets, doubt and temptation, of desperate want makes it one of those stories you just have to know how it all turns out.
You know it’s a good story when there is a sad aw that rushes through you. My favourite way of storytelling is when it is tole through several POV and this one is. The characters Dorian and Augustine were easy to like and become invested in.
I liked this story and the fact it was about the characters and not bogged down with unnecessary details. Not that I don’t love those but for this one it was right. I also like how the relationship was considered by taking in to account the feelings of significant others.
For her first foray into this genre she has done well. I look forward to what comes next.
