Book review: Support - Purity and Control 1

Hi there, pornies. How is that weekend going? Today I come with the book review for Support: Purity and Control 1, by Devon Vesper. This was a much better reading that the previous installements, and I'm excited to see how things go from now on. ^^ Thanks to Gay Book Promotions for sending me a copy of this book and next ones!

As Aesriphos Valiant, Valis needs all the support he can get. Oh, and he needs a husband, too.
Support: Purity and Control 1 advanced in ranks in the holy warrior order of Aesriphos on accident. If he doesn’t find a husband soon, it could undermine the entire order because an aspirant must marry before advancing.
He knows who he wants, he’s just too afraid to act on it. But as they go on a quest to help a friend, being so close to Tavros is filled with temptation Valis isn’t sure he can resist.
As they fight for their lives, Valis learns more about himself as a person and as a leader, but the challenges only keep coming, and some of them have a price that just might be too high to pay.

While the previous books seemed to go too slow to my liking, this one was faster, had more things going on, several action scenes that took Valis out of his comfort zone, and made it all the more interesting. This will be an interesting trilogy, I'm sure, and I'm glad because I was starting to fear things wouldn't move.

Devon Vesper's writing style is more fluent at this point, and I liked how she immersed me in the story. While there were some descriptions that I didn't feel added much to the story, they kept the charm nonetheless. It was great to see the characters develop

My only issue? The idea of the chosen one came out of nowhere, contrasting a lot with how many other things were developing. I knew it would happen one way or the other, but I just thought it woudl feel more naturally. This did take me out in an instant becuase felt as if was put in there just for the sake of it, to keep the plot moving and prepare the ground for future books.

In general lines, while it could be a bit better, I enjoyed my time with Support: Purity and Control 1. Devon Vesper surprised me many times with this book, there was almost one in each chapter, and the spiritual messages are plain beautiful! Although there is violence, this is a story of spiritual connection, forgiveness and love.

About Devon Vesper:
Born on a Navy base in Patuxent River, Maryland, Devon has traveled the world, living in Sigonella, Sicily for three years, and visiting many European countries before moving back to the states around the age of seven. She’s lived in Florida for sixteen years, Oklahoma for a year, and Pennsylvania for the rest. She graduated from surgical technology school near the top of her class in 2004, and uses her medical and worldly knowledge to enrich her books whenever possible. Since she has bipolar disorder, PTSD, social anxiety disorder, general anxiety disorder, clinical depression, and has trouble leaving her house due to all that, Devon works full time as an author and editor, and spends as much time as she can talking to other authors and her readers. Website.
