A Dark Sparrow Box Set – Books 1-3 contains the first three amazing books in the Dark Sparrow Series by India Kells. I have loved everything India Kells has written, and these books are no exception. They were riveting from beginning to end- and I though Ms. Kells wove a really gripping, well thought out, and intriguing stories. Each one focuses on one ‘brother’ and the woman who steals his heart. But you will see them make appearances throughout the series. Each book adds to the bigger picture that’s being built- adding more facets to the overall story. So this is a really great way to get all the story without- 3 for the price of one- now that’s a great deal! My review for each individual book can be found on each title separately, this is a general over view of the box set.

The Box Set contains:

Lost Bastard (Dark Sparrow Book One)
This is Aleksei and Diva’s story. So, 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)
E 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 my favourite of the bunch (so far).

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.

These books are so well written with lots of multi-layered and complex texturing- which resulted in exciting and incredibly entertaining reads. There were a lot of funny quips and banter too, which help to lighten the emotional, or highly charged moments which occurred throughout the stories. I loved the way Ms. Kells developed her characters, they were all fantastic and very interesting (even the baddies)- because they pulled me further and further into the story, leaving me with a desperate need to know what was going to happen.
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… 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 to see what Ms. Kells has in store for us next!

Thank you, Ms. Kells!

A Dark Sparrow Boxset by India Kells is a series about six brothers and the ties of family.
Each of these books is about a different brother however I personally would recommend you reading them in order as the characters development from the author is brilliant. It would give you a more complete experience.
Each book – each brother – is fantastic to read about. Their stories are so different and yet all have that similar feeling to them. And they each find the one person who is their perfect match.
The stories are all exciting and fast paced. You are drawn into them so easily and simply cannot put them down. You should do yourself a favour and buy this boxset today.

The Dark Sparrow series from India Kells has to be my favorite series of hers to date. When I saw that the first three books were available as a box set, I knew I had to scoop it up. Not only do I have to still devour the first book in the series, I know several gals that would love this series just as much as I have so it makes the perfect gifting option. I have truly felt all the emotions known while reading these novels and the series will keep you entertained for hours with lots of suspense and steamy content. I am so excited to get to read the first book and then re-read the following ones. I will be looking forward to seeing what else will come from the ever talented India Kells. Below is my reviews for books two and three.

Cold Bastard (Dark Sparrow #2)
“The question isn’t who’s going to let me; it’s who’s going to stop me.” ~ Ayn Rand

This was my first experience reading any of India Kells novels. I had not read the first one in the Dark Sparrow series, but didn’t feel like it affected my ability to fully enjoy this one. Though, since I did, I am compelled to go back and read that, and maybe some more of this author. I really enjoyed how India Kells managed to weave a detailed and complicated storyline with ease and friendly to the reader. It was fast paced and had me on the edge of my seat until I suddenly found myself with no more to read in a few short hours. I found it a perfect poolside read full of mystery, adventure, suspense, romance, and so much more.
Our two main characters in this novel are Zoe and Archer. Each have secrets in their past that will come back to haunt them. Will these be detrimental to not only their survival, but also their ability to find a happily ever after that you so want them to find?

I really connected to Zoe. She is a curvy, smart, and sassy redhead, much like myself. To me this really pulled me into the story and had me feeling like I was on the same page with her throughout the entire novel. Zoe is a Dark Sparrow (A soul offered a new life in exchange for a favor to be repaid later.) that has been assigned to infiltrate the Blackwood Corporation. This is where Archer comes in. I found him to be a nice compliment to Zoe. Archer has a very different persona. In his past it was his secrets that has turned him into the cold bastard that he is today. Zoe never figured that she would fall for someone like Archer but finds herself feeling a very strong attraction towards him. Will she choose to follow her heart or fulfill her job above all?

I really look forward to reading the next book in the series. I hope that it will keep me on the edge of my seat much like this one.

“Life Shrinks or expands in proportion with one’s courage.”~ Anais Nin

Wild Bastard (Dark Sparrow #3)

India Kells really just keeps on outdoing her own self. I have been an avid reader of Kells for a long time now so any time a new book of hers is available I tend to scoop them up without so much as a blink. I’m especially partial to this Dark Sparrow series of hers. Wild Bastard is the third book in the series, but could if you really want to miss out on some fantastic novels read this as a stand alone. They do have recurring characters but India Kells always keeps it easy to follow.

Wild Bastard is Kai and Izzy’s story. I adored these two and really enjoyed reading their journey. The two met and fell madly in love with each other years before but Izzy one day disappeared without so much as a goodbye. Here we are now and we find Izzy and Kai crossing each other’s path again. Will they be able to capture that same love they had before and hang on to it this time? I can’t wait to find out what will come next for the Dark Sparrow series!

This was an AMAZING box set!! I absolutely loved everything about it! The authors writing was phenomenal and each story was a 5 star read for me! The box set included Lost Bastard, Cold Bastard and Wild Bastard – these are the first three books in the Dark Sparrow series and are well worth a read! The series features 6 brothers and if the first three are anything to go by I cannot wait to meet the next three! It’s difficult to choose a favourite book from this box set as each brother has their own story to tell but if I really had to choose one then I think probably Cold Bastard – there was just something about this story which really pulled me in – it was a little more complex than the other two so I think I was really invested in what was happening and had to work a little harder to fully get to know the characters!
This really is an amazing box set that I 100% recommend! I am really looking forward to more to come from this series!

A Dark Sparrow Box Set by India Kells consists of the three books in this series: Lost Bastard, Cold Bastard, and Wild Bastard. This is a really good series that I enjoyed. Cold Bastard by India Kells is the second book in the Dark Sparrow series. I was really looking forward to reading this after reading the first book and I was not disappointed. The story is about Zoe Somersby and Archer Blackwood. Zoe had been brought in to work for Archer as an undercover agent.
The characters are well written and allowed the story to flow. There was lots of suspense and mystery as well as a little romance. I really like this is a well thought out story and the characters are interesting people. Everyone is not always what one would assume. I look forward to reading the next book in the series to see where the story goes next.
Wild Bastard by India Kells is the third book in A Dark Sparrow series. This tells the story of Kai and Isabel. Kai is trying to take down his father’s business and in the process runs into his past. Isabel after breaking his heart in the past has become a strong woman who has a life and secrets of her own. Will the two find their happily ever after?
Like the other books in the series, this can be read as a standalone. I have enjoyed not only this one but the others as well. Characters overlap and it is nice to get Kai’s story. I enjoyed the characters and wanted to see everything work out for them. The problems they encounter are crazy at times but seem to bring them closer and in a better understanding of one another. I enjoyed this book and look forward to others from this author.

This is a set of books that will hook you in from the very beginning and will take you on a journey that includes suspense and romance. The books had me turning pages wondering what was going to happen next. I really loved reading about the character of Archer Blackwood. Archer is a man that is considered hard and cold. He finds himself in a world that he never knew existed. Will he also discover love? I also enjoyed reading about the character of Kai. He is resourceful and who with his brothers have the objective of bringing down their father. What will happen when a woman from his past reappears with secrets of her own? I found myself caring about each one of these characters with each chapter that I read. The stories had my emotions going up and down the entire time I was reading them. There are romantic scenes and also bantering back and forth. I also enjoyed reading about the other characters that are introduced. Don’t miss out on a set of stories that will pull you in and not let you go until the final page. Highly recommended.

The Dark Sparrow Box Set contains books 1-3 in the thrilling Dark Sparrow Series by India Kells. It contains the 3 full length novels Lost Bastard, Cold Bastard and Wild Bastard. India Kells is an author I’ve come to love over the last 18 months and these 3 books are a fantastic example of how great an author she is.
The Dark Sparrow series is centred around 6 brothers. They are all the bastard sons of their evil father and have joined forces to bring him down. Each book gives us the story of one brother and the woman who has captured his heart. These 3 books contain Alexsei, Archer and Kai.
You could technically read each of these books as a standalone but as it’s such an amazing series I’d definitely recommend reading them all, starting with these 3.
If you love a great romance story which is filled with drama and suspense then this is definitely the series for you. India Kells sure knows how to write a fantastic story that will take you on an amazing roller coaster of a journey. Added to that is her skill of writing amazing characters who really draw you into their stories and make you want more. I promise that you will absolutely love Alexsei, Archer and Kai.
As there are 6 brothers I’m kind of assuming that we are going to get another 3 fabulous books to add to this series. I’m praying that is the case as this is a series I could read over and over and still love it every time.

I have loved this series from the first book I picked up. I was excited to see that the first three books in this series is in one box set. Each book is about a different brother, one is rich, one is a beach bum and the other is an orphan. They are hot, sexy men that will take you on a journey of secrets, romance and even some action. They all had me turning pages fast and left me wanting more. If there is anyone boxset that you must read, it is this one! I highly recommend picking up this one.

A Dark Sparrow Box Set – Books 1-3 (Dark Sparrow Series) by India Kells is a great series you want to get your hands on.

Book 1 Brilliant! Deva is forced to return to a life she left leave behind but it is only temporary, or so she tries to tell herself but she finds herself falling in love with a man who would be her downfall. His world is not a world she wants to be in.

Aleksei is a MMA fighter with ties to the Russian Bratva and a dark, dark world. Aleksei’s fathers is an evil man and he has just discovered that there are others that hate the man as much as he does.

I’m not going to give the plot away, but I will say this was a superbly written story, a gripping page-turner, with a good helping of grit, angst and smouldering scenes. A fabulous read for those who love the genre and I will very much look forward to reading more.

Cold Bastard (Dark Sparrow Novel Book 2) is a real page turner and the chaos start from the very beginning. We are thrown into a world where power and money mean more than blood. Where a monster will get what he wants and doesn’t care who or what he destroys to get there. The mystery and intrigue will keep you on the edge of your seat and with all the twists and turns you don’t see what’s coming.

What would you do to keep all those you love safe?

Wild Bastard (A Dark Sparrow Novel Book 3) is another gripping tale in this series and about second chances. India’s stories are cleverly woven together and are definite page turners and she has never let me down. I know I am in great hands when I pick up one of her explosive stories. I was on the edge of my seat and I was unable to put it down as I had to know what was coming. The story complex and multi layered and is full of action and danger, intrigue and suspense, secrets and lies and so much more and sizzling, sexy and hot, hot, hot.

Isabelle is introduced to the Bastards and chosen for her particular ability, to help them bring down a monster. What she did not expect was a part of her past to show and have all her secrets revealed.

Kai is torn between bringing down the man who destroys everything, to the one woman who can bring him to his knees.

India has lead us through a world where suspense and danger are the name of the game. Where secrets and lies could ruin it all. Where monsters lurk and cause havoc. Where love is is found in the unlikely of circumstances.

This is a must to be on your TBR list. I know you will love them as much as I did. I am waiting to see what comes next.

Wild Bastard is the third book in the Dark Sparrows Series by India Kells. This series should be read in order to get all of the background and to better understand all of the characters in this series. This book hooked from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down till the last. This is Isabel and Kai’s story. They have so much chemistry, but also a bunch of baggage from their past. My emotions were taking big swings during this book, and I loved the action. I would highly recommend this book, series and author. I’m really looking forward to seeing what Ms.Kells has in store for us next.

“The Dark Sparrow Series” is a spin off of “The Women of Purgatory Series” and while I believe each book can be read on its own, there are threads that tie it all together. The characters all live in the same “world”. WILD BASTARD is book # 6 in both series and # 3 in the Dark Sparrow series. I think it is important/helpful to read each in order because there are so many cross over characters.

WILD BASTARD is a fast paced story and while I was going to read for a little bit on this gorgeous spring Saturday of Memorial Day weekend, I found myself not able to put the book down until I was finished.

I love reading strong female characters who work to lift other women up instead of putting then down. This action packed story certainly has its share of fabulous females.

From beginning to the end, this story is well plotted and has a very clear path as the story winds itself through the twists and turns. I am so glad the series is continuing because I’m not ready to say goodbye yet.

Wild Bastard: A Dark Sparrow Novel by India Kells is a page turning romantic suspense. I instantly devoured this story as the author released this next story in the Dark Sparrow series. The writing is exciting and highly entertaining. Isabel and Kai are magnetic in this story and I couldn’t tear my attention away from them. Their previous history set the pages on fire along with their present interactions as they unfolded. The suspense and character portrayals were excellently written and kept the high energy continuous from start to beginning. The pace of the story was steady with some fast paced sequences falling exactly where needed. A great addition to the series with an amazing cast of characters.

☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
You will read and watch as the suspense turn into romance. Yes it is one of those must reads.

Isabel is in love with Kai. But that is the one thing she can not tell him. When she had to walk away from him, she did so with a bleeding heart. Little did she know. Kai felt the same towards her. Isabel is a strong independent woman with goals. Kai is a strong man with all the fight he may need to bring his father down. Is this a romance worth fighting for? Read the book and let e know what you think.

India Kells has once again written a great suspenseful romance. I loved her characters,as well as the rollercoaster this story takes you on. My emotions were all over the place. There are tender moments, but they don’t last long. Then the suspense takes over and you can’t put the book down, as you might miss something. This was one of those books, when you say. “I’ll just read one more chapter.”The next thing you know the evening has gone, and it is time to get up. Make sure to read this book and the others in order, so you get the whole picture. Well done India Kells, well done!

Wild Bastard is the third installment in the Dark Sparrow series and can be read as a stand-alone although characters from the previous book are featured in this book. With that said in my opinion for the best reading experience i would read the two previous books first.
This story is all about second chances and with the history that Kai and Izzy have, there is alot going on in their lives. They work so well together but the amount of secrets weigh heavily on their shoulders and that can slowly drive people apart.
This book had a little bit of everything. There is suspense, romance, action, danger and a whole lot of drama. It an extremely well written story that i lost myself in from the moment i picked it up. I am looking forward to reading more by this author and i would recommend it to a friend.

This is my 4th book by this author and my 2nd in this series, not sure how I missed the first one but that is an easy fix 🙂

This author has a style of writing that lures you in from the very first chapter and she places twists and turns throughout that you seriously don’t see coming and although most are not life shattering, throw your kindle kind of twists they still pack quite a punch and I love love love that.

The anger displayed in the beginning of this story was completely justified on one side and completely understandable on the other once I knew the whole story. I love these books and the continuing story going on with some new people added to the mix in every book.

I love the connection between these brothers even if everyone of them are so very different and I already can not wait for Liam’s story and did I read that last part correctly? Sister? I can’t even imagine where this one is gonna go and what needs to happen to bring the evil down…

Love these books and can’t recommend them high enough and really anything by this author is an absolute must read!

Kai is on a mission to stopping his father, who is not a nice guy. Izzy is suppose to help down Kai’s father’s business but she has some secrets of her own.

This is a story of redemption, betrayal, and revenge, and a sprinkle of love and it’s a great read with amazing characters.

I love series that can be read has a standalone but also see characters from previous novels. I don’t want to give anything away.

For lovers of suspenseful romance and a read that leave you on the edge of your seat, I recommend this novel and series.

Wild Bastard is the third book in India Kells’ Dark Sparrow Series. I think I have read all the books in her Women of Purgatory series and the other books in the Dark Sparrow series and I have to say that with every single book I read, I get pulled deeper and deeper into the world she has created. It is really cool how her books are in a way standalones while at the same time still connected – you meet characters from different series and they get involved in each other stories! It is such a fun to pick up a book and figure out how and where it fits in India Kells’ universe!
Wild Bastard is a story of second chances – our Kai and Isabelle who met years ago and then Isabelle disappeared from Kai’s life while leaving him emotionally destroyed … the story that the writer has given us is complex, it is full of action and intrigue and suspense and secrets and lies … and sex … and love …
I promise you will be sitting at the edge of your seat and once you are finished with Wild Bastard, you will be reaching for the first two books in the series and you will also be checking India’s website for the updates on when the next book will come out!

Wild Bastard is the 3rd instalment in the Dark Sparrow series by India Kells. Each book can be read as a stand-alone although characters do re-occur in subsequent books, so if you plan to read more than one book then I’d advise to read them in order to avoid possible spoilers. I’ve loved the books in this series so I would definitely advise that you do read them all.
Wild Bastard is a romantic thriller that will keep you gripped from the very first page right up to the very end. The suspense and tension will have you on the edge of your seat and keep you glued to the storyline.
Kai and Izzy’s story is also a second chance romance. Having met and fallen in love many years previously, Kai was devastated when Izzy just disappeared without saying goodbye. Now many years later, Izzy is called upon to help Kai and his brother’s bring down their father Jamieson Finch.
India Kells certainly knows how to weave an intricate and exciting storyline. I have read other novels from her outside of the Dark Sparrow series and have found her to be an amazing storyteller who writes and develops fantastic characters.
I really hope that there is more to come from the dark Sparrow novels as the other brothers who have not had their own books yet are intriguing characters that I’d love to hear more about.

A great follow up to Cold Bastard. In this book we meet Kai and Izzy. I was so hoping for their story and my dreams came true. This book is a nice mix of romance and suspense, so it will have you engrossed the whole way through.

Kai’s father is a douche and Kai will stop at nothing to bring his father’s company down while also dealing with this feelings for Izzy. Izzy was brought in to help bring Kai’s father’s business down but at the same time her past secrets are revealed. Izzy is a strong woman, and her personality had me loving her from the very beginning. I do wish Kai and Izzy were not in so many compromising situations, or I could see them together quicker, but then we wouldn’t have a great story right?

Second chance romance is one of my top favorite genres, so this book was perfect and everything I wanted for Izzy and Kai. I would recommend reading to find out if Izzy and Kai can make it through all of this drama. This book can be read as a standalone but I highly recommend you start from the beginning. This author never disappoints.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wild Bastard is a perfect example of a third book in a romantic suspense series. It has everything; drama, adventure, danger, romance with a little heartwarming emotions and of course suspense. Will they survive not only each other but their biggest threat? Will love rule out? That’s what I love about these books, you may have read some like them before but they always suck you in and before you know it you are looking for the next thrilling installment. These books won’t solve a world crisis, but that’s not why I read them, I read them to be entertained. This book is thrilling and fun and it had me flipping the pages while I was biting my nails full of suspense and worry. I made the mistake of reading this book first as it can be read as a standalone but I want to know more about this group of men so I’m going back to the beginning. Can’t wait to see how they got this far!

I loved this story. It is full of adventure and romance and shows if love is strong it can overcome anything.

This is the story of Kai and Izzy. After meeting when they were younger Izzy broke his heart when he disappeared from his life.

With Kai and his brothers still looking to bring down their father they hire someone to get close to him as his PR assistant. The lady that gets the call is Izzy.

So follows a story for lost love, secrets from both their pasts, all while trying to decieve and bring down a dangerous man.

Wild Bastard by India Kells is the third book in the Dark Sparrow series. I haven’t read the others in the series so there are some things I’m sure would make more sense if I had read them, but this could be read as a standalone.

The third brother to get a book is Kai. He is a strong alpha who was once brought to his knees by a woman but he’s determined not to let that happen again. He is stuck somewhere in the middle of the past and now when he sees her.

Isabel has become a successful owner of a PR firm which has really taken off in the last couple of years. She’s approached by Jamison Finch to help him but is this a good idea or will she be working with the devil.

I really liked the relationship between Kai and his brothers. Even though they weren’t raised together they have a good relationship. Looking forward to going back to read the first two while waiting for the next one to be released.

Four Star

The past should always stay in the past. The author made some valuable points in this story. Izzy has built herself so many shields its hard to find a soft moment. Her past was tough and you see that throughout the story. Kai has a hard yet soft personality. I do wish that the author would’ve given her more soft moments. The characters all sound great and the need for help is apparent in every word. I liked how the author built you up to the climax. Over all a fun story to read. The series of books have been a treat.

Wild Bastard: A Dark Sparrow Novel By India Kells. I honestly can’t stop thinking about this amazing story. Once again this author took me on quite the adventure with the words and characters put before me. You can read this story as a stand-alone without any confusion but I highly recommend the others as well. I love a story with suspense and this one definitely kept me on my toes. The characters are complex and well written as well as the storyline. The pace of the book flowed nicely and never felt rushed or lacking. The author does a wonderful job of writing a story with every detail coming alive before your eyes. Couldn’t put this one down, five stars all the way.

Wild Bastard: A Dark Sparrow Novel by India Kells this book is the third in the series but can be read as a stand-alone.
It was great getting to read about these characters. With their history it really felt like you were getting to see a whole new level from this series. The fact that the MC’s already had history was interesting. It meant when they met again their connection was already forged and it was instantly relatable. It felt like it took less time to get to know them.
India Kells always seems to know how to write a good story and this one has been no exception. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and can’t wait to read more from this author.
