Nectar: The Complete Trilogy by DD Prince
4 - stars for the trilogy **** 3.5 stars for book 1 *** 4 stars for book 2 **** 4.5 stars for book 3 ****
Trigger warning - dub-con/rape (she says no)
H - A controlling J/P alpha
h - argumentative, resists H and tries to leave him. There's a lot of push/pull in book 1, minor push/pull in book 2 and zero in book 3.
********MINOR SPOILERS********
In book 1 the h is delivered to him as a gift and he's instantly possessive and enthralled by her. She smells divine to him. Diii-viiiinne! He can't wait to f*ck her and won't take no for an answer. He doesn't care that she says no because she is a human after all. She's there for him to drink and screw. (That's how the vamps see humans.) When he goes down on her, her "essence" tastes exquisite. He's absolutely ravenous for her. As you can imagine, the sex happens right away and it's pretty dang steamy. The h resists the H is brilliant at pleasuring her and it feels so dang good to her that she's helpless to do anything else but endure multiple orgasms.
Normally, this H takes what he wants for women and then mesmerizes them to forget. Not so with the h. The h can't be mesmerized and the H has no intention of letting her go. He wants to keep her. The h doesn't want to be kept by a vampire and so she tries to leave him. This happens multiple times. I do love this type of scenerio in books. I would've loved it more here if she had actually gotten away from him for a period of time rather than just failed attempts at escape. It would've added another layer to the story. As it was, book 1 was my least favorite due to how much time the h spent locked in the H's bedroom and how much time she slept. There wasn't a lot more happening in book 1 other than fantastic sex and those few escape attempts. Towards the end of Book 1, the direction of the story changed and it increased my interest greatly. It ends on a cliffy.
Book 2 began shortly after book 1 ended. There was less sex in this book and more story. A lot of information was given to the reader and a lot happened. The h began to settle down and accept her relationship with the H. Love developed and tragedy occurred. The tragedy added a lot to the story imo. This book ended on a cliffy as well.
This brings us to book 3 - my favorite! I liked book 3 a lot! The story had significantly less sex but this was in favor of telling a truly unique story. *****spoiler****** The h was accidentally mesmerized. The H was heartbroken about this and I felt his love for the h. I loved the growth that occurred with the H and the journey he took from wanting to possess her body to truly loving her. I loved that. I loved reading about him trying to fix the h and bring her back to him. I pretty much devoured that portion of the story.
Overall, I would recommend this series to you if you're ok with the things I mentioned at the beginning of this and are ok with a book that has some minor editing issues. Read the preview and see what you think of the author's writing style. This isn't a favorite of mine but I did enjoy it and think that many here will too.
