Taste of Honey (Taste of Honey Series) by Julie Castle – Review by Carrie Reed

Taste of Honey by Julie Castle
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this set. Each book is short, a nice little read in between books and very steamy with a little drama sprinkled on top.

The Gift
Penelope and Vlad’s story is hot! I love that fact that they are co workers at a library and he has been secretly watching her and falling in love, well maybe in lust first. Penelope’s tears always broke my heart because the pair doesn’t do much talking but, my fears are put to rest many times in the way Vlad takes care of her. I like that his friend at the club mentions that Vlad is obsessed with her, that kind of tampers her uneasiness of where their relationship is headed.

The commanders club
Courtney and Dragon’s story is a step better than the last one. This story had more depth and a little suspense thrown in. I was so worried Courtney was going to get caught by Stringfellow, he seemed like just a nasty man. I am so glad Dragon was the one to train Courtney and their bond grew so nicely. My heart broke for her when she kept doubting they would end up together, it doesn’t seem like he wanted to take it all the way. Nicely ended

Once In Love
Laura and Nick’s story is my favorite of the three! I totally swooned at the way Nick was instantly drawn to Laura at the courtesan auction and how he falls in love with her quickly. This story didn’t have as much bdsm as the other two, but still a nice little amount. The extra drama with Laura’s former boss made the story so much more interesting. I can tell there is no way Nick would have let Laura leave him.
