Daughter of Sherwood by K.C. KingmakerMy rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Daughter
of Sherwood by KC Kingmaker tells the story of Robin Hood but from a female
point of view. We’re thrust into the life of Robin as she tries to save her
mother, survive her abusive father and is thrust into the world of the Merry
Men (although not so merry!).
This was
a well told story that had a lot of characters, not only do we have Robin and
her Merry Men, but also her uncle and her brother (the relationship is quite
complex with this one). The story does have a lot of twist and turns, and Robin
finds out who are her heroes and who are our villains as we delve into the
mindset of each character and find out about their lives as well as their hopes
for their relationship with Robin.
Just so
that you are aware, this is a reverse harem style book with lots of scenes of
Robin and her men. Some relationships happen quicker than others but there is
also a great sense of camaraderie between characters and Robin has a good deal
of wit and sense of self within herself and with her men. Some of the things
that happen to her in this book are horrible and you may/may not see the slight
cliffhanger that happens at the end of this book! You certainly feel as though
you are living with Robin in the woods at parts of this story, although washing
myself in cold river water doesn’t hold much of an appeal for me!
Overall,
definitely a different, sexier take on Robin Hood, although I did tend to hear
Bryan Adams crooning to me in the background as I read this one! If you like a
cosplay, RH romance with elements of surprise than this is the one for you.
ARC received for a
fair, honest and sometimes long review. All opinions are my own. 😊
