HEIR continues Mina’s story as she tries to stay in hiding from her abusive and controlling father. Each of her men -- Malachi, Wolf, and Rylan -- are doing everything they can to keep her safe because if she falls into her father’s hands then he’ll be able to control all of them through the bond they formed at the end of the last book. HEIR definitely has a “middle story” feel because while it does bring some changes to Mina and Rylan’s relationship, it ultimately doesn’t bring us any answers. I did like that Mina and Rylan began to see the good in each other and that Malachi and Wolf were able to start healing the rift they had with Rylan from many years before.

While I did find HEIR to be incredibly sexy in Katee Robert’s trademark way, it almost felt like there was, dare I say, too much sex. Really it was the fact that every conversation Mina has with one or more of the guys ends in them having sex and and something about that set up took away the seriousness of those conversations. Of course they are trying to get Mina pregnant and they’re on a time limit so it makes sense they’d be having lots of sex. So overall, a very minor complaint and I’m still really excited to read the conclusion to the series when it comes out.

Content Warning: Mina’s father was abusive; frequent discussion of getting Mina pregnant; book ends in a cliffhanger; dubious content (Mina and Rylan are attracted to each other but don’t particularly like each other but their seraphim/vampire bond forces them into having sex together)
