About this deal

You’re my gold, your cunt is my liquid gold. I will have your mouth, you will give it to me. Then I will have your spirit, Circe. I will own it. Always.”

Circe goes from despising a man because of how he mistreats a woman to actually liking another man who rapes a woman for weeks. She goes from trying to help a woman escape from her rapist to actually "helping" another woman stay with her rapist! And the reason, that after three weeks she has a completely different view on a rapist and his victim, is BECAUSE IT IS THEIR WAY. On the other hand, if you are sensitive to darker subject matter, like rape and physical violence, then you'll want to steer clear of this one. It is full to the brim with controversial topics. All the more reason for me to love it, but I know that isn't the case for many readers. Be forewarned.

Theme

So, initially you start this book thinking – How on earth am I going to fall for a hero who “claims” (if you haven’t cottoned on yet, I mean rape) his heroine and then keeps doing it over and over again? Well after awhile, his “claimings” takes a turn and becomes a little more, shall we say pleasant. The story comes to life as we get to know the characters and can’t help but fall in love with them. Circe was a lot of fun to read, especially the parts when she does something wrong and has no idea about it :D One thing about her I just didn't get and it's the only thing in this book that bothers me, how after three days of rape it takes one touch on her clit for her to be hot for him. Sorry, just don't buy that at all. The way that rape is depicted in this book is utterly sexist. The reader learns, that these warriors see it as their right to rape women and that they don’t view rape as an act of wrongness:

Heat level: Good. They have some good tension, chemistry, and scenes -- but not so much it takes away from the story. Closure: This had pretty good closure with what I would call a HEA ending they're married with babies.

Opening times

This is how Circe comes to be Dax's wife. Understandably, she hated him. Their relationship developed gradually. Eventually, it turned into something beautiful. This was a story that appealed to baser urges.

Dear friends, if you enjoy a good PNR(paranormal romance) I highly suggest you bump this series up on your to-read list! Along with several other women, Circe is caged. Provided only scraps of clothing, she is told that she has been selected to participate in a great Korwahk tradition. What tradition? The wife hunt.It's just they all blend together. The interactions. The lengthiness. Replace the time, place and plot, and you have fundamentally similar characters. Which is probably why I gave a couple of her other books 5 stars, because they were more "new to me" at the time. Cheating: Kind of, but no specific details or descriptive scenes The h finds out that the warriors use slaves for sexual reasons as well as they bathe the warriors. She asks the H to stop using the slaves, and he agrees. It's never outright said that he had sexual relations with the slaves after he was married, but it kinda felt implied. Note to self: I wonder if it is a coincidence that all these women are swapping with their universal twins...All around the same time... Things that make you go hmmm. As gory as this story is, as cruel as its warrior king hero could be, this is one of the best of KA’s romances, in my opinion. The language barrier, the cultural and moral differences… so much stood in the way of The Warrior King Lahn and his Golden Queen Circe getting their happily ever after. But they knew what they had, what they could have, and they ached for it, reached for it, bled for it... and when they finally got it, it was a beautiful, amazing thing. But all this doesn't matter to the female mc, for love is more important than such things as equality, freedom, justice and the right to choose.
