Sometimes just when you think things
are perfect, you notice that perfect isn’t all it’s cracked
up to be…
Markis has Ryanac, his best-friend, at
his side and they have finally become lovers once again.
Markis also has Uly who loves him unconditionally for
himself and not what he is. He also has Tressa, whom he
married to bring peace to the land and found to be charming
and attractive. So how come now that Markis has all the bed
partners that he could wish for or need and is finally
establishing consistent control over the comet does he find
himself dissatisfied with his life?
Ryanac and Uly both have finally
established a relationship with Markis that provides them
both with all the love that they need and brings as an added
bonus other partners into their play. So if they have the
man they love loving them back and building a life with them
– why aren’t they happy?
Tressa married Markis to establish
peace in the land, but also because he offered her freedom
from the backward customs of her people – it also didn’t
hurt that Markis is very handsome and comes as a package
with two other very handsome men. So why is Tressa having
such a hard time shedding all the ignorant habits of her
people when that was exactly what she was looking to do in
the first place?
The Swithin Chronicles 2: The Comet’s Tail
brings us back into the lives of Markis, Ryanac, Uly and
Tressa and how they are coping with changes they need to
make to their lives in order to work well together as a
four-some. As before Uly, Markis and Ryanac are the central
characters but this time the action revolves around the
deepening emotional bonds between all three men and how
these same bonds change the how they relate to one another
and others. Tressa, just like in the previous book, is very
much a secondary character even though she does play an
important role in the men’s lives at times. All in all,
The Comet’s Tail is fun and sexy romp that delves
into the minds of Markis and Ryanac and to a lesser degree
into Uly’s. While this book is entertaining and interesting
the ending leaves several loose ends unresolved and anything
outside of the romance unresolved. Still, The Swithin
Chronicles 2: The Comet’s Tail is a wonderful
fantasy tale that will leave you feeling hot under the
collar and looking for the next book about these men! |
