About The Book

My legacy is to hate him, but I can’t.

Life was normal. Until a woman appears and tells me I’m an elf and she’s my grandmother. Not quite what I expected after another day at the office.

Soon, I’m thrown into a world of duty, magic, and monsters.

And a family feud as old as time itself.

I would have run. I would have gone back to my old life. Or started a new one.

But when the man I’m supposed to hate turns out to be my elven soulmate the only thing I can do is fight for my right to love him. No matter what kind of monster gets in the way.

Elven Duty is a gay urban fantasy romance with two star-crossed lovers, a ton of monsters hellbent on destroying this dimension and a secret “baby”. This book has a Happy For Now ending with a tease of the next book in the series.

This book was previously part of the Magic Emporium multi-author series. The only changes made are the fixing of awry typos and the addition of the last chapter tease.

The Review

This is the second Magic Emporium book I’ve read, and I liked them both very much. What a fun series!

This is my first book by Rhys Lawless, though, and I really enjoyed his writing style. 

It was well edited, I don’t think I even found one typo, which is a massive plus as far as I’m concerned. 

I enjoyed the world building, and everything made sense to me. The characters reacted to their lives like you’d expect people to do, and even the monsters made sense… all this together meant that I was able to remain in the ever-needed suspended disbelief that any fantasy novel must have to be enjoyable.

Oh, and who wouldn’t be full out in love with a gay love baby troll? (You’ve got to read it to know what I’m talking about… sorry!)

Just FYI, I’ve already downloaded book two, cause for real… this is a wonderful story.

4.5 stars.
