Review: His Captive Princess (Royal House of Saene #3) by Kiru Taye




Prelude to a Review
Please take note that I wrote the first book in this series. Although the stories are connected they were written separately. I’ll let you know that if I didn’t genuinely like the book, I definitely would not be reviewing it.

The Blurb
Isha Saene has perfected the act of balancing her life—a celebrated corporate negotiator spearheading an international trade deal that could catapult her country to one of the fastest growing mid-sized economies in Africa, and a loyal First Princess of Bagumi Kingdom set to seal ties with a neighbouring nation through marriage.

Until one careless moment knocks her carefully choreographed life into chaos.

Zain Bassong has always fought for the underdog—a patriot dedicated to fighting against the oppression of his people by the country's elite. He believes the pen is mightier than the sword and chooses the diplomatic route, no matter how many times he is arrested by the repressive regime.

Until devastating news triggers a chain reaction.

Isha and Zain are thrown together and their lives change. For better or worse? They will have to figure that out before it’s too late.

My Review
Isha, the first princess of Bagumi, is not someone to mess with. She’s amazing! Strong, confident, adventurous, intelligent, and loyal. Zain is her counterpart in every way. He wants the best, not only for his people, but especially for Isha. They make the perfect power couple. They experience a ton of hardships to get there, but their journey is totally worth it. 

It is always a pleasure reading Ms. Taye’s exceptional writing style. She tends to get spicy with her books, but this one was tamer than others that I’ve read from her. Not to say it didn’t get hot, though.

This was a wonderful tale that took us from the UK to a real West African country and then to fictitious West African countries. The trip was incredible. Romance at its best.

I give this book five out of five tiara shaped chocolate bars.

Spotlight: Royal House of Saene

Hi everyone. Exciting times in 2019. I'm happy to announce that the Royal House of Saene series has been released.

Welcome to the Sovereign Kingdom of Bagumi

The Kingdom of Bagumi is one of the last intact African monarch states. Treaties and alliances over several centuries have ensured their continued dominance in the region. 
Each generation of the powerful and proud Royal House of Saene is bound by loyalty to their family and duty to protecting their nation.
However, soon, long-trusted traditions come under attack and change becomes inevitable, especially when love clashes with duty. 

The long-standing, distinguished Royal House of Saene is about to be rocked by three sexy, determined interlopers. Princesses Amira, India and Isha may have to choose between sacrificing their hearts or their kingdom.

A spoilt princess and a commoner…a match made online.
A widowed princess and a reluctant king…a match shrouded in suspicion.
A crusading princess and a freedom fighter…a match built on conflict.

MEET THE ROYAL HOUSE OF SAENE: THE PRINCESSES

HIS DEFIANT PRINCESS BY NANA PRAH (BOOK ONE)

Princess Amira Saene has always done the right thing when it came to her beloved Kingdom of Bagumi. Yet her unorthodox online relationship with a man across the sea has derailed her from cultural norms. She doesn’t care. After a year of communicating, the man she’s developed feelings for comes to visit. Their chemistry is intense and she tumbles the rest of the way into love. With the threat of war looming over her country, Amira is thrown in the middle as a peacemaker through an arranged marriage.
Jake Pettersen never thought he’d meet the woman of his dreams, much less online. Flying thousands of miles to West Africa to meet her verifies that the feelings he’s developed are real. Too bad her family doesn’t think he’s worthy of her. When he learns that Amira has been betrothed, he must decide whether fight for her or accept the loss for the sake of her homeland.
Is their happiness worth the devastation of her country?

Falling for the headstrong India is out the question especially when evidence points to her as his brother’s killer.
