I read these three books over the course of a couple of days.  I could not put them down.  When I finished the last book, I wished there was more.  The diction and syntax used are not perfect, but I was more than willing to overlook the minor technical failings in the books because the story was really good.  Even though the entire story takes place over the course of maybe two months, this isn't one of those annoying love at first sight stories.  Instead, the love story develops very gradually, and the passion is very deep.  It is hard not be invested in the relationship between Marcas and Dayton.The world in which this tale takes place is original.  The characters are well thought out and richly drawn.  The hero is not some shining knight on a white horse.  He is dark and dangerous.  The heroine is brave, honest, and, thankfully, practical.  Sometimes I get aggravated reading stories where the only way to advance the plot is to have the characters do things nobody would ever do.  That isn't a problem with these books.  If you read a lot, I imagine you will find the absence of huge logic gaps refreshing.  I know I did.I don't give a lot of five star ratings.  However, this one is well deserved.
