Attain Heart Of Gold (Dark Kings #18.6) Executed By Donna Grant Delivered In Leaflet
love Donna Grant's books and have been a huge fan of her works now for some years and I always love when she releases a new read and this one was just perfect to read whilst wrapped up warm and cosy it is almost like it gives you a warm hug!
It is a nice quick read and it is one that you can read and simply forget about the rest of the
world for awhile.
I thought that the book was well written, it had a great flow to it and it was just a lovely book to read.
I love that these books are like escapism for me and I can sink into a book and feel like I have left the day to day and am joining them in their stories.
I love the Dragon Kings, they were the first of Donna's characters that I read about and honestly I can't get enough of them! I love Rhi, she is my favorite by far of all the women in the series and I loved catching up with her and Con.
I love the characterisation and the mix of personalities and how well they all work and fit together too and this one was a loving read when you get to read and share the thoughts that Con write all those years ago too a wonderful read that pulls on your heartstrings and makes you want to give them both a big hug!
It isfrom me for this one, a lovely novella very highly recommended! This was a short tidbit into Cons thoughts during his and Rhis separation.
The way his emotions spilled across the page was almost gut wrenching, from his feelings of despair and guilt to his devotion and love for Rhi.
. . beautifully done!
I received an advance reader copy from the author and this is my honest review, HEART OF GOLD is a novella that is a short story of the King of Golds, the King of Dragon Kings, Constantine and his Mate.
During their long very long separation, while Cons Mate was believing that she was forsaken by her King, Con was writing about his feelings and his love for his Mate in diaries.
Red, leather covered diaries that held all of Cons anguish, longing and love for his Mate, Though it was thought that Con had destroyed all of the red diaries, one lone diary survived, only to be found by his Mate.
After reading the diary, Cons Mate devises clues placed around the Distillery for him to follow to find her, I thoroughly enjoyed HEART OF GOLD and wished the story was longer though this is the third story regarding Con and his Mate, with one novel and another novella previously released.
While reading the novella, you will run the gamut of emotions, happy, sad, love, and back to happy, A wild ride, but definitely worth it because Con and his Mate have worked through and earned their happiness and forever, I would recommend HEART OF GOLD as the icing and cherry on the cake of Con and his Mates love story, A sweet and poignant novella featuring Con, Rhi, and Con's red journals, When Con leaves a journal were she can find it, Rhi knew she was meant to read it, Through the pages, she is able to get real insight into the man she loves and the struggles he went through when he chose to put the lives of all the Dragon Kings before his own happiness.
This story touched my heart, I just felt for both Con and Rhi and all they've been through, I enjoyed it so much, I only wish it were longer as I always do when I really enjoy a book, Many thanks to the author for writing such a heartfelt short story,
From the Red Journals, . .
Con: "You whispered into my heart, You kissed my soul. And you showed me a love that I never dreamed could be mine, " le sigh
I received a copy of this book from the author via Bookfunnel, My thoughts and opinions are my own and without bias or favor, ARC provided for honest review,
Just wow! Heart of Gold just became my favorite book of the entire series! When it came out that Constantine, King of Dragon Kings, was Rhis ex lover I was not excited.
I did not think that they had much chemistry and hated how Con treated Rhi throughout the series,
After reading Heart of Gold and finally getting into Cons head through the red journal he leaves for Rhi to find and read and also through his own flashbacks I am now on board the Con/Rhi train all the way!
I alway thought Con was heartless and emotionally bankrupt but not anymore.
This is a very short story but it is so worthwhile and the very end is setting up some exciting things to come, A peak inside the Red Journals,
For all of his eons on this Earth, Con has recorded his thoughts in journals, He has two sets brown ones to record events involving the Kings, Reapers and other supernatural beings and red ones to record the torture of living without his mate.
The red ones were never meant to be read and most of them were destroyed by Con himself in a fit of anger and despair.
In this story, we get another little glimpse into Con amp Rhis life now that they have found their way back to each other.
Rhi finds one of the red journals sticking out from under the mattress, She cant resist reading it to get insight into what her mate went through when they were apart, Since Con never does anything by accident, I believe he left the journal where Rhi cold find it to tell her all the things he couldnt tell her for so long.
I am really enjoying these short stories that show us how life is continuing at Dreagan, how Con amp Rhi are enjoying being together.
Donna Grant knows she has us readers invested in Con amp Rhi and she keeps giving us these lovely little snippets of their life now.
I look forward to the next part of their story and excited to see how they overcome what comes next,
I received an ARC of this book from the author and have agreed to leave an honest opinion,
Life is good for Con and Rhi, They have been through so much apart and together, Just when they had found happiness, Con sent Rhi away and out of his life, He didnt do it because he didnt care, because he did, He did it because of the state of his brethren and the turmoil going on, his brethren needed his full attention and as King of Kings it was his responsibility.
Eons later they are together again, finally, Rhi spent thousands of years hating him for pushing her away but finally she realized the hate was because her heart was so broken.
No man could ever fill Cons shoes in her heart though,
She comes upon a journal and starts reading it, It is a journal that Con kept when they were apart, The words are just amazing! I think she met another whole side of Con through those words which is difficult since she knows him so well.
You can do nothing else but love this story because it is a story of love and longing and the pain of loss, all in a journal.
Now she needs to release the man from his guilt, . .
Super sweet!! Love getting more about Con and Rhi! This is a short read that has Rhi reading some of Cons passages in his journal about his feelings when Rhi and Con were separated.
Just a touching read.
Grant is doing her darnedest to show that Con made the right decision by freezing out Rhi from his life I still dont fully agree with his choice, but I get it.
My main contention with Con was the whole Usaeil thing so disappointed in him about that, but I still really like Con, Con and Rhi are wonderful together, It does make me a bit mad and disappointed that the other Kings couldnt handle one of their own being happy because of jealousy and such, so I still dont think that reason is a good enough reason.
Overall, a wonderful read for anyone that has loved reading about Con and Rhi finding their way back to each other, Id recommend readers at least having read Con and Rhis full book before this one to enjoy what this short read brings to their romance.
So excited for them to meet their kids!! A short, sweet, and emotional glimpse into the heartwrenching love between Rhi and Con, and against all odds, found their way back to one another.
Such a wonderful installment into their lives, Donna Grant delivered the perfect novella to give us a feel into Con's and his mate's feeling toward the past and the future, To get a glimpse of what went on inside Con's head through his journals and even his meetings with his love after centuries apart was just heartwarming.
I smiled and cried at the same time because I could feel his emotions come off the page, I could feel his love, I could feel his despair and loneliness.
Donna picked the most perfect flashbacks and really gave us that closure on how he felt, Then we had their moment of healing toward the end and how sweet it came about, For Con to be given his own notes and his acceptance to let the past go was perfect, I truly loved this novella and can't wait to read it over and over again, Heart of Gold consists of declarations of love from Con to Rhi as written in his journals and from Rhi as she finds a way to reciprocate with her own messages of love to Con.
There is very little in the way of action or advancing the series but there are hints of things to come, Too short. Heart of Gold

for the beautiful and desperate words Con wrote,
𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗹𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗹 only kisses and love words,
I have been granted an advance copy by the author, here is my true and unbiased opinion,
sitelink facebook. com/ It took a long time for Constantine, King of the Dragon Kings and the Light Fae, Rhiannon 'Rhi' to get their happily ever after.
This is the perfect Valentine story for this couple as Rhi reads Constantine's red journals that pour out his love and anguish for pushing her away.
As these two revisit the past, his journals are filled with beautiful heartfelt and heartbreaking emotions,
Just a few of my favorites between them:
'You touched not just my heart but also my soul, As no other has. '
'You've seen the ugly parts of me, And despite them, you still love me, '
'You are all that I need, all that I want, You're all I'll ever ask for, '
This whole novella is a beautiful valentine, I loved every moment and highly recommend it, If you haven't read their story, you're going to want to the entire series after reading this one,
The novella also includes a sneak peak of 'Fire and Flame, '
I received a free copy of this book and I'm voluntarily leaving a review, If you like my reviews I hope you will follow my blog, sitelink wordpress. com/
