My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I am officially a Kells fan! It was so wonderful to see all the boys join forces! The main heroine this time, however, is so unique! She has strong responsibilities that keep her away from our strong, wounded cop, but all she does is ignite his protective instincts! And the epilogue?! I just can’t wait for the next one!

A Dark Sparrow Box Set (Books 1-6) by India Kells

Lost Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel #1)

This is the first book in A Dark Sparrow Series. This is the first book I’ve read by the author, but it won’t be my last. Kells has really done a great job writing this.

Deva, a Dark Sparrow, goes to help Lazarus. He wants to watch his brothers and make sure he’s kept out of harm’s way. Little does Deva know that the brother is going to capture her heart. The quote I chose for Deva is: “I agree. And I couldn’t stop thinking about what Finch and my father had said. All those speeches about patience, about preparing for war. What if he was speaking about a war from within? What if Finch had prepared things way in advance, and placed his pawns in strategic places.”

Aleksei, Lazarus’s half brother, trains at the gym only to find his Angel there. He keeps her at arms length, but when he’s injured she’s the one to help him. Things get tough and he pushes her away. The quote I chose for Aleksei is: “You put yourself in danger! I told you to stay at the hotel under Lance and Kai’s protection, but you didn’t listen. You don’t listen! And now that I know you are safe, still breathing , still alive and whole…”

Cold Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel #2)

This is the second book of A Dark Sparrow Novels. As the second book I’ve read by the author I can say I’ve enjoyed it. Kells knows how to capture a reader’s attention.

Zoe knows her languages and is requested by Beatrice for a favor. Keep an eye on one of Lazarus’s half brothers. Not sure what she’s getting herself into she goes. She finds herself going back to the past. The quote I chose for Zoe is: “You had love in your life, and even if you struggled and battled through some tough times, you had a choice to do something with it. Grabbing that power. I will never judge you for the decisions you made, that path on the dark side. I would have done the same thing. Hell, I’m doing it right now. At least love brought you back. You always have a choice, Archer. Never forget that.”

Archer Blackwood, moves from London to Chicago, a cold man needs someone who can translate languages for him. What he doesn’t know is his half brother is really looking out for him. Zoe has thawed the cold man a little. The quote I chose for Archer is: “Don’t put yourself in danger, do you hear me? Steer clear of Finch. You’re mine.”

Wild Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel #3)

The third book in A Dark Sparrow Novels. Kells has really upped her game from the first two books. Lazarus is at it again with helping one of the many half brothers and Kells captures it perfectly.

Isabel is the next Dark Sparrow to be called upon the favor. What she doesn’t realize when she agrees to the meeting is she’ll be running right into the past’s arms. Jones isn’t who she expected to see and it gets better. The quote I chose for Isabel is: “No pressure. Because all I want is you.”

Kai, Delta Force, goes to another meeting in hopes to bring down his father, Finch. What he’s not expecting is for the girl who broke his heart and got away is the one that’s helping. Things don’t go as planned and it scares him. The quote I chose for Kai is: “Are you still set on returning to work tomorrow?”

True Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel #4) by India Kells

Kells knows how to get attention with everything she writes. So far I’ve read all The Dark Sparrow Novels and I can’t wait for more. These characters will never be forgotten.

Liam, a cop and the fourth brother to Lazarus, is upset that they didn’t bring down their father. Gabrielle had to leave as an emergency came up, but she brought a gift. Someone to cut Finch’s money. The quote I chose for Liam is: “I never played you, in any way, Catriona. I’ve never liked deception. When I kissed you, it was because I couldn’t help myself. If Deva hadn’t barged in, things would’ve gone further than a kiss. I only stopped because I think you’re making a mistake.”

Catriona, very close to becoming a nun, is brought to Chicago to help a family out. With the eldest brother being in a coma she does what she can. When she uncovers something she runs, but she saves someone else. The quote I chose for Catriona is: “We’re on this earth to make mistakes. Do you think that’s the first time I’ve ever thought about being with a man, sleeping with one? When you choose a path, you have to relinquish several more. No one goes into a religious life without considering that, otherwise, the weight of the commitment would break you in two. I haven’t slept with anyone because each time I was convinced it was the wrong decision, until you.”

Dark Bastard: A Dark Sparrow Novel # 5 by India Kells

This is another great read by Kells. Dark Bastard was an amazing read and I can’t wait for the next one. It’s part of A Dark Sparrow Series, but can be read as a standalone.

Ellie is trying to live one day at a time, but being a 911 dispatcher is hard. Especially when she thinks she can save someone’s life. The quote I chose for Ellie is: “And you know nothing about me, Sam. And yet, you stopped that final jump because of me. We’re strangers who have lost their way yet found each other. I see honor in you, a protector of your brothers. You may have reached the end of your rope that night, but I believe your strength is still greater than your pain. I don’t care that I don’t know everything about you. I think that for the moment, staying alive is the only solution we have.”

Sam is feeling lost and ready to give up on life. He decides to call his brother only to get a wrong number. When he does hear the person’s voice it changes everything for him. The quote I chose for Sam is: “I couldn’t forget the sadness in your voice when you hung up on me. It’s the only reason I persisted. I want nothing from you, just the reassurance that you’re all right.”

King Bastard: A Dark Sparrow Novel #6 by India Kells

This is not the first book I’ve read by the author. The Dark Sparrow Novels get better each one I read. King Bastard is by the far the best and we get to learn more about the head guy.

Lazarus is known for protecting his brothers from their father. So far each of them have found their happily ever after. Sasha came into his life when it was at his lowest and she just might be the best thing that has happened to him. The quote I chose for Lazarus is: “I didn’t know you’d worked with her so many times during your missions.”

Sasha comes back to the states after being away for a while. She gets a call from Lazarus’ mother and now has a place to stay. Can she get through to Lazarus that they can be more than friends? The quote I chose for Sasha is: “Sorry. I don’t come home a lot, and when I do, my brain takes time to adjust. I compare the life here and back there, seeing the inequalities, and it blows my mind.”

This was one amazing box set. Dark romantic suspense lovers these are your books!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

5 Stars

Dark Sparrow Box Set: The Complete 6-Book Series contains the entire collection of books in the Dark Sparrow Series by India Kells. I keep saying it, but I have loved everything India Kells has written, and these books are no exception. She is one of my favourite authors and I one-click anything she releases, no questions asked. This is a fantastic opportunity to get a complete series in one exciting boxset. They definitely provide a riveting read, from beginning to end- as expected Ms. Kells has woven some really gripping, well thought out, and completely engrossing stories. Each book focuses on one of the bastard ‘brothers’ and the woman who steals his heart. But the brothers also have recurring roles in the overall series too. Each book adds to the series, building on what came previously, painting a bigger picture in the process, adding layers and facets to the overall storyline.
My review for each individual book can be found on each title, separately, below is a general overview of this thrilling boxset.

The Box Set contains:

Lost Bastard (Dark Sparrow Book One)
This is Aleksei and Diva’s story. If you are a MMA/ Russian Mafia romantic suspense lover, then this is one book you won’t want to miss.

Cold Bastard (Dark Sparrow Book 2)
We follow Archer and Zoe through all the intriguing developments in this fantastic second chance romance. Even though I have adored all the books and characters in this series- this one dug itself a little deeper into my heart and is definitely one of my favourites.

Wild Bastard (Dark Sparrow Book 3)
I loved Isabelle and Kai’s story, and I am sure you will too. There is danger, suspense and second chances that will have you hooked right till the end.

True Bastard (Dark Sparrow Book 4)
This is the story of Liam Harker and Sister Catriona Walsh. The sinner and the nun. Yes, a nun!!! And their story was every bit as intriguing as you might imagine! I loved that this book also helps to build a bigger picture of the brothers and their on-going father issues.

Dark Bastard (Dark Sparrow Book 5)
Sam and Ellie’s story- OMG did I feel for those two. They have been through so much and I was so happy they found each other- but that’s not to say there weren’t a few anxious moments through the story. I could feel their sadness and the weight of their ‘burdens’. Sam was ready to end it all- but a misdialled number connects him with Ellie- and so the adventure began.

King Bastard (Dark Sparrow Book 6)
This was such a bittersweet read for me. Having read all the previous instalments, I truly connected with this band of brothers and looked forward to following each one as they got their own book. So, knowing this was the last book in the series was sad- I was sooo not ready to say goodbye…. But at the same time, I desperately wanted to know how things would finally play out, but more importantly, getting a front row seat to the ‘Oz’ show- and what a fantastic show it was!! Ms. Kells definitely had me completely engrossed in the story- I devoured the book in a couple of hours, just so I could find out what happens.

These books are so well written with lots of complexities, depth, and texture- which resulted in exciting and incredibly compelling stories. There was a lot of funny quips and banter too, which help to lighten and balance all the action, emotion, and highly charged moments that occur throughout the series.
I love the way Ms. Kells develops her characters, they are all fantastic, and entirely interesting (even the baddies)- pulling me further and further into the story, and always leaving me with a desperate need to know what’s going to happen next.
Ms. Kells creates quite brilliant, intricate, and suspenseful storylines which included lots of action, danger, deadly games of cat and mouse, perilous situations, evil masterminds, lots of secrets, difficult choices, shocking revelations, electrifying chemistry, plenty of sizzle… and so much more!
I really recommend this Box Set, as I am sure you will love it just as much as I have.
I can’t wait for Ms. Kells next release, whatever that may be!
Happy Reading!

Thank you, India Kells!

True Bastard (Dark Sparrow #4)True Bastard by India Kells
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Liam Harker is a cop with the Chicago PD and is on semi-leave thanks to an injury he sustained while on duty, he is loyal to a fault and is always trying to tread the straight and narrow, but sometimes he knows that he has to cross it, even if it sticks in his craw. Catriona Walsh is a novitiate in a convent of nuns, she is a stunning woman with a head for numbers which her talent for seeing patterns and finding their source is what has led her to leave her old life and find this one, but is she about to take on a job which is more than she is capable of?

As Liam goes to sit in his usual café and look over the case files of what he is currently working on, he is distracted by a woman at the counter, but when she is introduced to him as Sister Catriona Walsh, he is completely thrown for a loop. Catriona meanwhile, is trying to convince him that she is the person for the job of digging into the financials he is struggling with so that she can use her skills for good, she is the light to his darkness and that is something he cannot understand.

Things start of on a competitive front with Catriona not backing down over Liam trying to take control of keeping her safe while not keeping himself in the same manner, to the point that she is annoying him so much he eventually backs down, but not without resentment and a bit of pride in how she handles herself, she is not the angelic being first impressions conveyed. Things go from annoying to rocky as things start to happen to them which lead them to becoming suspicious that someone is following them, their suspicion turn out to be right when after a night of digging, Catriona finds something she was not expecting and cannot compute, so she goes to somewhere she thinks is a sanctuary only to find out that it is the complete opposite.

Will Catriona be able to find the strength to protect those around her while continuing her mission to untangle the web of financial strands to figure out how to cut the money off completely, or will the web ensnare her and those around her? This is another romantic suspense which will hook you in and drag you along as the ups and downs of this rollercoaster ride keep you hanging on until the end.

I’m always LOVING the books India Kells publishes. (I’m saying that after only reading this series but I don’t care!)

Liam and Catriona are night and day, but their attraction is burning hot. India Kells gave us a story to hot and suspenseful to put down until the end. Liam is a rugged Alpha police officer currently hell bent on bringing his father to justice. Currently out due to an injury he crosses paths with nun to be Catriona who is sent to help the family with this mission. The moment their paths cross its all consuming, and Liam risks the dangers of tracking his father as well as losing his heart. The story is beautifully told and it will appeal to your every emotion as you connect to the characters. Its another amazing book within the series that you will not want to miss.

The fourth book in the Dark Sparrow series has the bastard brothers still trying to take down their evil father. This is Liam and Catriona’s story. Liam is a cop who is not working do to an on the job injury. Catriona is an about to be nun, who is a wizard with numbers. The brothers feel that to take out their father, they need to stop the money. Catriona was asked by a mutual friend to help the family out. She is willing to risk her life to help them, Liam doesn’t want her to endanger her safety to do so.

Will they all come out unscathed after another run in with the bastards evil father? Thank you India Kells for the world you created and for letting me fall into it with you!

In the continuing story of the Bastard Series, author India Kells sucks you into the story right from the start. I read this book so quickly. I loved the story of Liam and Catriona. Liam is a Chicago police officer and Catriona is a great money tracker. The brothers are recouping after their last run in with Finch but still working hard to bring him down. They place their hopes in Catriona to find where Finch is hiding his money so they can cut it off. She has her work cut out for her as danger begins to surround them. A few more characters are added to this story and brings a heart warming conclusion. On to book 5. I can’t wait to see what is going to happen. I am so invested in all these characters I will miss them when the series is done.

Liam, a cop shot on duty, and Catronia, a forensic financial expert, will be going through Finch’s financial records. Gab mentioned that Catronia was a sister (but not really one yet). Talk about complicated. This is a relationship full of challenges, flirting and inuendo. Toss in Finch and the brothers and it’s ripe for another fun chapter in the Dark Sparrow series. Great plot that keeps you reading for more. Well written characters that have such real personalities that jump right off the page. You should give this a try.

This book was something, guys. Liam, a cop, and Catriona, a nun, stole my heart. They were absolutely perfect together. I love when couples aren’t picture perfect for one another in every way and that’s exactly what India Kells gave us with True Bastard. The love in this book is unlikely and unexpected, but it really works. The supporting characters were really well developed, also! While this is book 4, it can be read as a stand-alone.

Once again we are entranced by another Bastard! True Bastard is Book 4 in the Dark Sparrows series by India Kells. Liam Harker is one of the brothers that is ready to take down his father for all that it costs. Problem number one…he is a cop. He has been tasked to go through his father’s financials but in order to do so he is going to need some help. Here comes problem number two…his help is newbie nun who just happens to have a talent in numbers. And the final problem…he has an attraction to said nun. Sister Catriona Walsh is just about to take her vows to become a full-fledged nun when she is asked to help Liam go through the financials. I would definitely read the other books first as they contain information to keep you informed about what has happened previously. I loved this book as I loved the others and I really hope that there is another book in the series so we can finish out the brothers. I just love all the character and how they interact with each other. It is such an adventure to see this series unfold and this book didn’t disappoint!

You have been an orphan and been shown love within the church and shown compassion will she be able to unmelt the cold heart and show love to a lost soul.

Catriona has lived her life in a sheltered convent but when she recieves to call to action will she be able to put aside the love she feels for a man she can’t have.

Liam is broken as one of the bastard sons of Finch he is trying to get them rest of his brothers to get him legitimately, so when he starts digging within his father’s finances will Catriona be able to find the missing piece to get the sadistic man Finch.

Kai and Liam were my favourite brothers within this series so far and I loved that they both get books, the chemistry between these two characters jumps off the page like all the stories so far. I love the way the story has arced through all four books but they are brilliantly enough to read as stand alone books also, but to be honest who would as they are brilliant and full of twists and turns can’t wait to read the next book, please please please Oz and Sasha would be appreciated.

True Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel #4) by India Kells was a good 4 star read and can be read as a stand alone.

Liam was injured on the job and is still working on bringing his father down, along with his brothers. Knowing that they need some additional help, we meet Catriona. As soon as Liam meets her there are some instant sparks. There is only one problem, Catriona is a nun.

Will she be able to help Liam? Can Liam stay away from Catriona and keep it professional?

These two have similar childhoods, Catriona was an orphan raised by nuns and Liam was raised by his uncle. There is so much going on, you are on the edge of your seat. The author does a great job with her writing. We get suspense, danger, romance and so much more.

Overall this was a great read. All of the characters added a great element to the story. If you’re looking for a great read that pulls you in, 1-click and get started today. I will warn that there is a scene that could be a trigger for some. I look forward to reading more from this series and author.

True Bastard is the fourth book in the Dark Sparrow series You could probably read this as a standalone, but you’ll enjoy it more with the backstory from the other books in the series.

I have to say, I relate to the opening in chapter one where Liam feels like meeting Catriona is a cosmic joke. I have felt that way many times in my life. Things seem to line up perfectly, and then the universe lowers the boom. I felt for the guy, lol.

This story is everything you would expect from this author – great chemistry between the characters, adventure, angst, and romance. Once you start reading, you’ll stay up all night just to finish it!

This is not my first book by India Kells but I would have to say that this is one of my favorites. India Kells puts a lot of heart and soul into her characters. They are fully developed and have unique qualities. She gives them such personable personalities. Take Liam, he is a cop and he wants to make his father pay for wrongdoings. Now there is only one who can help him and that is Sister Catriona. You read that right Sister Catriona, as in a nun title. Sister Catrionais great at numbers and he feels like she can help him. Then something happens that changes Liam’s feelings for Sister Catriona. You will have to read the book to see what happens.

True Bastard the fourth book in A Dark Sparrow series written by India Kells is amazing I have read all the books in this series so far and I think Liam and Catriona are my favorites. The characters are amazing and well written. I loved their banter and quirks. This book contains danger, suspense, and romance We even get to see what is going on with the other couples from the first three books.

This is the story about Liam.

Liam is a cop and has issues in the last few years he found and met his brothers got injured on the job luckily while he is recuperating e still is active on the most important case of his life and that’s to bring his father down.
Faced with the insurmountable task of going through his father’s financials, he is thrown a lifeline when a mutual friend sends novice nun Sister Catriona Walsh to help.

Catriona is good with numbers and Liam can really use her help. The first time Liam meets Catriona is an angel and he is really attractive to her but he needs to keep his distance. Catriona also feels attraction to Liam but he runs hot and cold.
Catriona is equally attractive to Liam but will she act on this attraction or will she still say her vows? Will Liam act on his attraction or will he walk away?

You will have to read this amazing story but I highly suggest you rea all the books in this series in order….

True Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel #4) by India Kells

Kells knows how to get attention with everything she writes. So far I’ve read all The Dark Sparrow Novels and I can’t wait for more. These characters will never be forgotten.

Liam, a cop and the fourth brother to Lazarus, is upset that they didn’t bring down their father. Gabrielle had to leave as an emergency came up, but she brought a gift. Someone to cut Finch’s money. The quote I chose for Liam is: “I never played you, in any way, Catriona. I’ve never liked deception. When I kissed you, it was because I couldn’t help myself. If Deva hadn’t barged in, things would’ve gone further than a kiss. I only stopped because I think you’re making a mistake.”

Catriona, very close to becoming a nun, is brought to Chicago to help a family out. With the eldest brother being in a coma she does what she can. When she uncovers something she runs, but she saves someone else. The quote I chose for Catriona is: “We’re on this earth to make mistakes. Do you think that’s the first time I’ve ever thought about being with a man, sleeping with one? When you choose a path, you have to relinquish several more. No one goes into a religious life without considering that, otherwise, the weight of the commitment would break you in two. I haven’t slept with anyone because each time I was convinced it was the wrong decision, until you.”

I highly recommend this book for anyone who loves a good read.

True Bastard by India Kells is the fourth book in A Dark Sparrow Novel series. The series focuses on a different couple in each book. These can be read as standalone books, but I really have enjoyed reading them in order because they build upon each other. These books are fun and exciting to read. Liam and Catriona are fascinating to read about. The contrast between the two characters is so good and really made me enjoy their story even more. This story is not a straight romance but also contains action, thrills, and twists. I have enjoyed the books in this series as well as others by this author and this one did not disappoint.

This was a great adventure from the first page. It is number 4 in the Dark Sparrow Series. I loved this story and was gripped from the very beginning.

Liam is one of the brothers who is on a mission to bring down his evil father. Along with his brothers they are looking for a way to destroy him before he destroys them. When Liam gets a hold of his fathers finances they need an expert to help them with it.

A mutual friend recommends a expert called Catriona. Catriona is a wizard with figures and can find a trail anywhere but what makes her different is she is training to become a nun.

When Liam and Catriona meet there is an instant spark but Liam doesn’t want her to turn her back on her path or force her to do that so he keeps his distance and pushes her away.

Can the angel and the man covered in sin be together? Can they work together to bring his father down or will they end up only destroying themselves.

True Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel Book 4) by India Kells

True Bastard is the fourth book in the Dark Sparrow Series by India Kells and my favorite of this series yet. Each book you think it can’t get better than the last but it does. I highly recommend reading this whole series in order as it will give you a better understanding of what is going on but they can be read as standalones. This is a fast paced action packed story that pulled me in from the beginning and kept me till the end. This is Liam and Catriona’s story. Liam has one goal and that’s to make his father pay for all the wrongs and to take him down. Catriona is a nun who knows her numbers . She is recommended to Liam to help him go ever his father’s finances. The minute he sees her he knows there’s something special about her. There is definitely a attraction between them. How far will he go? Can he keep her safe? Find out what happens next in this absolute must read. I can’t wait to read more from this Author.

Five Stars

True Bastard is the fourth book in the Dark Sparrow series by India Kells. I think this is my new favorite in this series. Liam is such an alpha male until Sister Catriona tames him with her angelic presence. This book had me up long past my bedtime, because I just couldn’t put it down until I read the last page. This book was well worth the lack of sleep. This story took me on an emotional roller coaster and I loved every minute of it. This entire series is going to get a re-read before the next book comes out. I highly recommend this book, series and author.

True Bastard is the exciting fourth book in the Dark Sparrows Series by India Kells. This is such a great series, and it’s a fantastic addition to the collection. It is definitely my favourite of the series, so far. It is a dramatic, gripping and suspenseful story- full of action, danger, angst, adventure, chemistry, twists, revenge, intrigue, and romance.
As with all of Ms. Kells’ books, I really couldn’t put it down- I was glued to the pages- devouring it in a couple of hours. As expected, the story is superbly written, with a complex and multi-layered storyline that proved to be an exciting and incredibly engrossing read.
This is the story of Liam Harker and Sister Catriona Walsh. The sinner and the nun. Yes, a nun!!! And their story was every bit as interesting as you may imagine! I loved that this book also helps to build a bigger picture of the brothers and their on-going father issues. This book could be read as a standalone, but as I just mentioned, there is much to learn by reading the previous three books first.
I can’t wait to read Sam and Ellie’s story next!!!

Thank You, Ms. Kells!

True Bastard: (A Dark Sparrow Novel #4) by India Kells which I love. I enjoyed the other books in the series and this one is no different. It is full of action and angst, frustration and fear. It is a fast paced story that is easy to read and the pages keep turning. You need to read the books in order as each one is about a different man and they each appear in each other’s stories. India writes stories that are compelling and enthralling and pop off the page. The characters are nicely developed and you can’t help but fall in love with them. Once again we find the brothers trying to stop evil but evil isn’t always easy to catch.
