The Rebel King by Gina L. MaxwellMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Blurb
All work and no wicked play makes Tiernan a very unsatisfied king…
Of all the Verran brothers, Tiernan is the least suited to wear the Night Court crown. The Rebel Prince is happy with no responsibilities or accountability―just the freedom to pursue his own dark, lush pleasures in Sin City. Including his secret hunger for a certain smart-mouthed, fiery redhead.
Only, the possibility of having Fiona is stripped away when Tiernan is thrust into the one role he never king . As king of the Dark Fae, wanting―let alone pursuing―anything with a lower-caste fae like Fiona would shift from fun…to forbidden.
Now war is emerging from the shadows of Vegas, and Tiernan is caught between who he’s meant to be and who he wants . And somewhere in this maelstrom of lust, love, and rebellion is the key to the Dark Fae’s survival…even if the cost is more than he can imagine.
Each book in the Deviant Kings series is

* The Vicious King
My Thoughts
"Just because something always has been doesn't mean it always should be."
The series just keeps getting better
From the opening scene, it was nonstop edge of your seat
"What the ever dark fae is going on here" action-packed, twisty, hades level steamy, suspenseful moment after another
Don't worry despite how desperate things get - it ends with the absolutely best plot twist, redeeming HEA
"I will follow you. I will find you in whatever afterlife exists for ***** , and I will drag your cute ass back to the land of the living."
My heart broke for Tiernan, he never wanted this responsibility and now he is questioning if he can properly lead and protect his people -
And if he can at what cost to himself?
I wanted to do some very creative things to the council
So excited about who Tiernan made a temporary alliance with and the little side surprise - So not spoiling but it connects with the next book in the series
"And it's okay to be mad at your eyes. I'll show them enough love until you're ready to love them, too."
The way Tiernan loves Fiona - Swoon
100% book boyfriend material #lickedhimsoheismine
Fiona is such a perfect match for Tiernan. She is strong, intelligent, and quick witted - She is having her entire belief system turned upside down and tossed about (just wait for the revelation - holy guacamole!) but she is not backing down (yes she has a small pity party but it is brief) and she is not abandoning everything she has ever known including Tiernan
I could rant for days about how much I love these characters and how absolutely engaging the storylines are I will save you that and just say I
Highly recommend!
Basics about the book
The Rebel King is the second book in the Deviant Kings series. The story follows Tiernan Verran, the middle brother of the Night Court royal family, as he is thrust into the role of king after his brother's death. Tiernan is a rebel at heart, and he doesn't want to be king. He would rather spend his time pursuing his own dark, lush pleasures in Sin City. When a series of murders threatens the Night Court, Tiernan is forced to step up and take charge.
Along the way, Tiernan finds himself falling for Fiona, a lower-caste fae who works as his house cleaner. But their relationship is forbidden, him being the king and she being a lowly peasant...
At least in the eyes of the council who have other plans for Tiernan and his future consort
