I love Livia Ellis' writing style. And I loved Sport of Kings. This was a short, hot read, but underneath there was a love story that I couldn't get enough of. Marcus and Alejandro and their burgeoning relationship was artfully detailed.Yes, there was plenty of steamy eroticism to go around, but it never overshadowed the crux of the tale. Most popular erotica today eschews this in favor of glorified sex. This is a tale of excesses and luxuries, and we see where exactly Marcus and Alejandro fit into this dynamic.What clinched it for me was the conversation between Oliver (on whom I have a secret crush) and Marcus, and Marcus' subsequent realization of what he needs to do to win back Alejandro. It is this realization and Alejandro's affirmation that add validity to the decadent lifestyle they lead.Livia Ellis is a rising star in this genre. Read her work for yourself and decide.Five out of five stars.
