Review: The Royal Flush - D.N Simmonds

Reviewer: Brittany
Rating: 5 out of 5 Fairies

Oh how much I ducking love reading these books. I have enjoyed each character, each word, each and every single book. For The Royal Flush I had a smile on my face from Walter to feet (a.k.a. very first word to the very last ). I laughed so much at points that my husband told me that a person should not laugh that much from a book. And I responded with “Shush it, Mister.” I literally lost time; I was so entranced in this story. Hours flew by and I didn’t even realize it until I was running late getting ready for work. So far from this series, this one was my favorite.

Darian is this character that everyone knows, but no one really knows. You not only learn so much more about his past, but you also learn about his Maker, Kysen, and his past as well. Darian’s past created who he has become as a vampire. And I was very grateful what his history consisted of. It helped me understand the characteristics that I, as well as Natasha, didn’t really agree with, and hoped to see changed. He cares so much for Natasha and it shows throughout the whole story. The idea that she has to celebrate his birthday is so naïve, but he indulges her fantasy whole-heartedly. Even Xavier found the idea hilarious, but no one would dare say no to that girl. Just as she states in the novel, she truly is a Princess and they are her Princes.

The action in this book kept me on my toes. I had no doubt that everyone would be rescued, but I couldn’t imagine the steps that were established to make this mission a success. I don’t know how good of an idea it was to have Natasha’s abilities “enhanced” but she thinks it’s a good idea so I stand by her decision. I just hope that Darian is going to help her out on learning how to control these new aspects of her gift. Speaking of Darian, Natasha, and gifts….

I absolutely LOVE his birthday gift from her. From the long-debated decision that she makes to the sex that they have, I absolutely love these characters and their story. When this series comes to a close, I hope all of my aspirations for it come to light and that I’m not going to be let down. However, I think that the fact that it’ll be an ending will be a let-down. I want to hold on to this series with the grasp of an iron fist and never let go. I don’t want it to end, but alas, all good things must come to an end. Five golden stars for The Royal Flush, however I wish I could give it five-hundred. Job well done and I think I’ve found my new favorite author.

Oh and I almost forgot….it’s about time Warren and Matthew got together. That’s one HOTT partnership! YUMM!!!
