When King Henri’s daughter runs off and gets married, the spell that was put upon him weakens. He is horrified to realize that he almost married his own daughter because of a promise he made to his dying wife, to marry only another who looks like her. Henri believes his wife’s cousin Violet is responsible, for she is a magic fairy and has the ability to cast such spells.

Violet assures the king that she never put any such spell upon him and that she would find out who did. Her duty to her cousin is complete now that the young princess is safely wed to her love. But leaving the king is not something Violet wants to do, for she has always secretly loved him and has waited for him to love her back. Violet can only change her appearance to look like her cousin until she is wed to the king, from then on her true form shows and with his promise to his late wife; Violet knows that Henri would never break it to wed her. Will Violet and Henri ever be able to find true happiness?

An exciting, magical story, Taming the King is a must read Ellora’s Cave Quickie. Samantha Winston packs in the sensuality that will have you entranced from the very first page. It was interesting to see Violet take control and make the king her slave in bed. This erotic read gets right to the point and doesn’t hold back when it comes to the sex. If you are looking for something HOT to read this summer, Taming the King is the perfect book to read.
