No Man Can Tame
No Man Can Tame | Miranda Honfleur
3 posts | 5 read | 2 to read
A human princess. A dark-elf prince. A kiss of fire and powder. After a failed courtship in an ally kingdom, twenty-one-year-old Princess Alessandra returns home to a land torn apart by mutual hatred between the humans and the dark-elves. The "Beast Princess," as Aless is known by courtiers, confidently sets her mind to ways of making peace, but her father has already decided for her: she is to marry one of the mysterious and monstrous dark-elves to forge a treaty, and go on a Royal Progress across the kingdom to flaunt their harmonious union. While she intends to preserve the peace, the Beast Princess has plans of her own. Prince Veron has been raised knowing his life is not his own, but to be bargained away by his mother, the queen of Nozva Rozkveta, to strengthen the dark-elf queendom. When his mother tells him he is to marry a self-absorbed, vile human, he is determined to do his duty regardless of his personal feelings. After arriving at the human capital, he finds the "Beast Princess" rebellious and untamed—and not to be trusted. Aless and Veron face opposition at every turn, with humans and dark-elves alike opposing the union violently, as well as their own feelings of dissonance toward each other. Can two people from cultures that despise one another fall in love? Can a marriage between them bond two opposing worlds together, or will it tear them apart for good? If you like the fantasy and politics of Danielle L. Jensen’s Malediction Trilogy and the romance of Elizabeth Vaughan’s Chronicles of the Warlands, No Man Can Tame will lure you into its world and not let you go. Buy No Man Can Tame today, and journey into a medieval world of magic and Immortals, masquerades and games, love and blood, and a tale as old as time...

I have been waiting for over a year for this book to come out. I don't normally read many series, but I really enjoyed book 1. I really like the kick ass matriarchal elf society. It is a nice departure from the patriarchy. Plus this one has unicorns so I'm in. I can't say the writing is always 100%, but the story makes up for it for me. (I tagged the 1st book because there was no info for this one.)

This ended up being way better than I expected. Great world building, solid plot, kick ass women characters, pretty good writing. Aside from the annoyances in the beginning I mentioned previously it all came together. No cliffhanger at the end either. I'm not a fan of this title though. Currently only 99 cents on the kindle. And I found it through fb ads so I guess they do work! Book 2 is a different story/same world.

Are you kidding me? Dear aspiring authors, don't do this. It's bad enough there are Italian words the humans use scattered throughout that I have to look up, but making the dark elf dialogue this complicated is just ridiculous. Aside from these issues the story is good so far.
