Book Rating

ROYAL is the second book in the Foster Bros series, and you don't need to have read book one to understand this one. What you do need is a whole lot of patience, as these two drove me crazy.

Royal is the Daddy Dom, who says he is more into the caretaking side of things. Memphis is the little who left home at the first opportunity, as he had feelings for Royal. One of the parents knew about this, but didn't say anything. Fast forward a few years, and Memphis' sperm donor dies, so he returns for the funeral, and to see if he and Royal might finally have a future together.

If mis- or non-communication is your thing, then you are going to LOVE this story. If it's not, then you might struggle, as I did. Saying that, there were a lot of things here that I did enjoy, so I will be continuing with the series. The writing and the pacing are well done, and I did enjoy all the interactions in this story. It's Drake's story next, and I can't wait to find out more about the quiet, enigmatic brother.

<spoiler>I love a good Daddy Dom, especially one heavy on caretaking, so I was thoroughly looking forward to this. I've also never read a book where the 'little' disappears, so I was also looking forward to seeing how that worked out. In a word, it didn't. The Daddy / little part became almost non-existent.</spoiler>

Bowie and Kari are perfect for each other!

Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.

This is book 6 in the Divergent Omegaverse series, and I recommend you read them in order. While the books themselves are overlapping in the timeline, some things happen in previous books that are mentioned here, and talked about but not fully recapped and you really do need to know about the visit to the ranch, and what happened at the factory.

There have been hints about Kari and Bowie in previous books and I really enjoyed their book. Not loved though, and I can't figure out why!

Kari is a born Starling, twin to Kodi. He's the calmer of the two.

Kari watches Bowie, like a hawk, so he notices when something isn't right, his wolf knows something is very wrong. Once Kari finds Bowie, his Daddy side kicks in. And that Daddy side is so powerful, and sweet, and loving and neither of them saw this coming, so it was cute as well.

Bowie had a difficult upbringing, and it spills over into his adult life. The prologue made me cry! But once Bowie finds his feet, as it were, with his Daddy, and once they get smexy? Oh my days, that boy is fierce!

Some darker things happen, but I'm not spoiling it for you.

I'm looking forward to Kodi's book, and there is also Jupiter and Laken still to fall. I do enjoy the snippets of text messages, between the PA's and the Starling brothers. And the little bits we get of Lane and Derick (Popi and Dad!)

It's a fairly easy read, and I can't figure out why I didn't love it! Sorry!

4 very, very good stars

**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
Ten-year-old Glory Bea Bennett believes in miracles. After all, her grandmother—the best matchmaker in the whole county—is responsible for thirty-nine of them so far.

Now, Glory Bea wants a miracle of her own—her daddy’s return.

The war ended three years ago, but Glory Bea’s father never returned from the front in France. She believes Daddy is still out there.

When reports that the Texas boxcar from the Merci Train—a train filled with gifts of gratitude from the people of France—will be stopping in Gladiola, Glory Bea just knows Daddy will be its surprise cargo.

But miracles, like people, are always changing, until at last they find their way home.
