The Line of Succession 3: Interregnum Kindle Edition

4.5 out of 5 stars 23 ratings

Chaos rules an empty throne.

The Queen remains steadfastly in a coma. James is adjusting to his life as prince regent, helped by new eye-candy Samuel, while Andrew faces up to the reality of working for the opposition—James’ twin sister Alexandra. Andrew and James now find themselves on opposite sides of the war of succession.

With Alexandra’s bombshell article due to shock the monarchy to its core, she must seek out political allies to take the throne while keeping her restless husband Faisal in check. But the establishment is fighting back, and they’ll use even the most diabolical means to ensure James will produce an heir.

The powerful forces behind Operation Rex face a greater threat—Lizzie’s plans to expose the monarchy’s deadliest secrets to the world. Her pact with the IRA may finally avenge her parents’ murder… and truly enthrone a reign of chaos during this interregnum.

    This series...

    Shiz gets real.

    I used to see two sides to the story regarding James and his sister's rivalry but now I'm on one side, however that could change given how this author writes.

    Strong contemporary world building that mashes truth with fiction in a believable manner.

    Plenty going on and continuing.

    The erotica is well balanced but ads a pathos to the ongoing issues James faces being a closeted gay Prince Regent. The desire for James and Andrew to be able to be together, but the line of succession says otherwise.

    Enthralling fly on the wall eye view of a royal family.

    This series still intrigues me, even though I can't relate to the main "romance" of the story. This truly is a soap opera type series, so I cannot recommend strongly enough that the books be read in order and in their entirety.

    We pick up not long after the events of Acts of Treason, if my memory serves me correctly. Andrew has been working for Alexandra for a time, and James has a new press secretary, the ever charming and handsome Simon. While Andrew has convinced himself that his actions are leading to a new future for James and himself, James feels bitter and betrayed; never truly having been loved at all.

    Of course, while Alex plots and schemes to claw her way to the throne, James has become the Prince Regent. Manipulative forces that have been in play far longer than this generation of Royals, have put their own plans into motion, just as they did in the past. Operation Rex is their ploy to seal the line of succession, and when Alexandra hears of this, she dubs her own machinations Operation Regina.

    Political power plays are in abundance, feelings are manipulated, sex is used as not only pleasure, but a means of control, and government agencies are coming along for the ride. A misguided attempt at bringing Princess Katyn down a peg or two through an alliance with the IRA brings devastation; to all parties involved. However, in its wake, even more intrigues and plans are formulated.

    But, the horrendous fallout also brings clarity to Andrew regarding his current situation. And, it allows James to recognize the depth of his love and need for the man missing from his life. As the story closes, there is change in the air, both on the personal sides and the political. But one must never take for granted that they have all the facts in any situation. Surprise opponents can be lurking in your own personal circles. To be continued...

    Happy reading!

    This is the continuation of a story which started in book 1 and continued in the second book (Acts of Treason). I don't know how many books there will be in total, but this is quite a dramatic story with a huge cast of characters, and it is far from finished. We see the goings-on behind the scene with the various members of the royal family, the backstabbing, the conniving, the treason, the fight for the throne, etc. Meanwhile, the two lovers, James and Andrew, are finding each other further and further apart by the actions of the other conspirators within the royal family, and their love story is no longer the central part of this drama. This story is quite a saga, which I think would make a perfect BBC Masterpiece Theater production.

    So much to observe. Everyone has an agenda, so who can you trust? I am anxious to see how this ends. Who will end up on the throne? Will James and Andrew be able to be together? For two men who claim to love each other deeply, they have some issues. Hopefully they get through them.

    You get another look into this royal family and their drama. Each book gets more intense and the drama goes up.
