A Qurilixen World Novel (Lords of the Var Book 1)

You have a strong female that is capable of mostly anything and a male that things that he should have whatever he wants and he doesn't want to look bad. Yes i gave this book five stars but i will still question whether i want to read the rest of the series some of the brothers attitudes let down the book. He expected her to understand his culture and she was to fit in he didn't seem to try and understand her at all but again she was the heart of the book and you felt for her.

Kirill just became king on the same night he meets Ulyssa. He is intrigued. She was kidnapped by his father the deceased King Attor. Her main concern was to escape his palace. She cant escape her own heart. She falls in love with King Kirill. He fell in love before he even realized it was love. Great story.

I received an eBook copy from the publisher for the purpose of an honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own

Kirill and Ulyssa were an awesome way to start this series. Raised by the late king Attor I figured that Kirill would be less like his father than he was, then I remembered Attor from the Dragon Queen and how he changed after being scorned. I loved the way this book played out and that it picks up where the Dragon Princes left off. I cannot wait to read about Kirill's other brothers.

Alyssa is an undercover agent on a mission. She's on a male dominated planet where the men are all handsome muscular hunks. She can take care of herself ,but gets kidnapped and is thrown into the kings harem . Through series of events ends up in the new kings bed .
Thoroughly imaginative love story. Can't wait to read the next book in the series .

STORY BRIEF:
Ulyssa is a government agent sent to the planet Qurilixen to stop a man with biological weapons. The threat appears to be over. While she waits to be picked up, King Attor kidnaps her for his harem. He dies within a day or so, before he can use her. His son Kirill becomes king. Kirill and Ulyssa start falling for each other. There is a lot of fighting and bantering going on between Kirill and Ulyssa. She plans to leave him when her spacecraft arrives.

REVIEWER'S OPINION:
I did not like the ways Kirill and Ulyssa interacted with each other. They both were difficult to get along with, but Ulyssa was worse. I didn't like her personality and attitude. She was rash, outspoken and reckless. Kirill made a minor comment, and Ulyssa took offense and punished him in an unfair way. When Ulyssa realized she liked Kirill, she started putting distance between them (one of my pet peeves on my Profile page). They acted like they didn't want each other, and then they both assumed the other didn't want them. I was most angry with the vague communication conflicts described under Spoilers below. The underlying plot about two warring groups and a biological weapon threat was ok.

DATA:
Story length: 193 pages. Sexual language: mild. Number of sex scenes: 7. Total number of sex scene pages: 29. Setting: centuries into the future on the planet Qurilixen. Copyright: 2005. Genre: science fiction and paranormal romance.

CAUTION SPOILERS:
I was angry at the vague communication. For no good reason, Kirill sat next to an unattached harem girl Linzi at dinner, acting like he enjoyed being with her and flirting with her. When Ulyssa saw this she was hurt and decided she could never be with Kirill because he would desire other women. She left him and the palace. When they next see each other, she does hateful things because she believes he was with Linzi. He responds with bad feelings and words. Later on, he softens and tells her that he was never with Linzi. Ulyssa continues to lie to him about why she left. At one point, she started to tell him why, but they were interrupted. After that, she had a chance to tell him but she didn't. She planned to leave him even though she loved him. They didn't know that each one loved the other. I was angry and frustrated at the author for creating several conflicts based on vague communication and inaccurate assumptions (my pet peeve #1).

Ulysses ends up kidnapped and put In a harem while on a mission to a barbaric shapeshifter planet. Attempting to escape she runs into the heir of the throne who takes charge of her care. This high handed arrogant ruler ends up tripping Ulyssas heart but as they progress both are to stubborn to admit their feelings.

This story was unique and intriguing. I liked the misunderstandings of Kirill and Ulyssa they were like any other couple. That is usually not found we see these fantasy characters with unrealized expectations. I'm sorry to see this story end however I'm looking forward to the others.

The Savage King starts where The Dragon Lords series left off.

Ulyssa, kidnapped and held hostage in a harem by King Attor, is an agent for HIA. But when Attor dies, King Kirill takes over. Kirill and Ulyssa both are bound by their duty, and neither wants a permanent relationship. The problem is, they can't keep their hands off each other.

I really enjoyed the Dragon Lord series, and The Savage King is a great start to the Lords of Var series. Pillow did a great job of making me really like Ulyssa. She was funny and tough, and very likable. Kirill was a hard man, but vulnerable at the same time.

Can't wait to read the next in the series.

Lyssa and Kriill meet at a disadvantage. She is an agent and he is going to be the new king. Love is in the air but different cultures don't necessarily mesh out think the same way. It takes hard work to make things work out.

A continuation of the wonderful world of Qurilixen. Just the right amount of subplot and sexy romance to keep a reader going. I loved this book and can't wait for the rest of the Lords of the Var to be challenged by their women.

I gave this book 5 stars, because, I absolutely loved reading about these amazing and wonderful people who live life to the fullest and love with all of their hearts!!! Recommending this book is one of the easiest things that I have ever had the pleasure and privilege to do!!! I wouldn't change one thing about this particular book and I know that you will love reading this book for yourself!!!

I WAS GIVEN THIS BOOK FOR AN HONEST REVIEW...... OVER 18+ READING
On planet Qurilixen, you have two main families King Attor of the Var (cat shifters), who the day he dies kidnapped a young woman (Agent Ulyssa Payne, who was undercover on the planet) and sent her to his harem, and the four Draig Princes(dragon shifters). A week later King Attor oldest son,Prince Kirill of the Var and his brothers ,Prince Falke (Commander of the Guards), Prince Reid(Commander of the Outlands),Prince Jarek( is out gallivanting around the galaxies,Reid and Jarek are twins and the only brothers with the same mother),Prince Quinn (their ambassador and the youngest ) are trying o sort out what they need to do. Kirill must decide what happens to his fathers harem as he is responsible for them but he wants no lifemate or several half mates either (none of the Princes do) so he decides he must at least meet them...how many could there be 50 or so..to Quinn's laughter he says 163 at my last count give or take a few dozen.Now he decides to hold a pairing(the harem women who have not had kids with the king can marry any one the men they chose,as the planet is short on women and the king had so many)but Ulyssa has tried to escape only she had been drinking the harem women's wine( or I should say nef -a kind of drugged drink ) and she ran into Kirill and he was very drawn to her till he kissed her and tasted the nef which is given to harem women and she had said she wasn't one of Attor's. He takes her to his house to sleep it off, not touching her because he doesn't want his fathers women. The ways of Kirill and Ulyssa is something I could read over and over when I need a good laugh because love may never be easy but on a strange planet with rules you don't understand , you can cause yourself so much trouble. And his brothers totally enjoy it.But she will discover something and not talk to him but runaway, and run to the Draig Palace and the Princes (she got to the planet on the bride ship for the Draig )and knew one of the women they had married Princess Nadja married Prince Olek, knew who she really was.The future King of the Draig,Prince Ualan married Morrigan,Olena married Prince Yusef (Captain of the Outlands)and Pia married Prince Zoran (Captain of the Draig Armies)and all the new princess are pregnant.As they when to find what Ulyssa had come to get help with, outside of the castles the Princes,King and future King and wives found they could work together and find common ground. But you need to read it to find out all the wonderful how, why and who did what.A HEA ending leading to the next prince story.
