Sep 19, Pooja Anand rated it really liked it Shelves: Obviously another excellent story from Danielle. However, like previous books, I expected a better suspense. Except for that, I loved the book, I just couldn't put it down. Aug 20, JmsBndGrl rated it liked it Shelves: Not a bad start to the spinoff. A predictable storu, but enjoyable just the same. Nov 24, Marsha rated it liked it. I've so been looking forward to reading Mattias' story that I just expected too much.
First and foremost, the cover of the book was not the Mattias I feel Ms. Bourdon has described so often in her previous work. She described him as well built and dark haired; yet, the man on this cover is slightly built and medium coloring. However, this is a minor concern as opposed to the lack of chemistry I felt between Mattias and his love interest, Allanah. It just did not play out well for 3. It just did not play out well for me and it was more "tepid" than hot! The Royal Elite is a group of wealthy and privileged who seek to protect others of their kind.
While attending a social event, Mattias discovers that Allanah, the daughter of a wealthy Australian is the target of an ordered assassination attempt. If he has any chance of protecting her and ferreting out the intended culprits he will have to get close to her. Unfortunately, Allanah is socially inept and wants nothing more than to be left alone. When Allanah meets Prince Mattias she believes he is just another attractive rich manwhore put for his latest conquest.
The Royal Elite: Mattias by Danielle Bourdon on Apple Books
Even though she shares her love of history and unique artifacts, she knows he is bored with her interests. Yet, she finds herself attracted to him until she passes by his room and hears him engaged in a dalliance with a blond. Although she is not sure why she us upset by this she decides to stay clear of him. Then things begin to happen, the power goes out at the mansion and Allanah is kidnapped. Yet, Mattias and the Elite manage to spoil the kidnapping.
While on the run, Allanah must learn to trust Mattias if she us to survive and somehow their attraction for one another seems to grow. Truthfully, I love the world Danielle Bourdon creates;so, I just don't know what went wrong for me here. I think that part of the problem was that the relationship between the characters felt rushed. They just did not connect and did not appear to be more than casual acquaintances. They did not seems to have anything in common including sexual tension or heat. I just did not buy it! Maybe when the next book in the series comes out something will click for me.
I sure hope so because Mattias was one of my favorite characters from the Latvala Royals. Dec 30, Christi Lofton rated it it was amazing. Book 1 did not disappoint as it told the story of Mattias. In this story, you learn more about Mattias and about the work of the Royal Elite. As Mattias attempts to perform his duties for the Royal Elite, he finds himself drawn to the object of his duty, the beautiful Alannah.
As the book progresses, you will be drawn into the web of excitement as Mattias works to not only protect but to eventually save Alannah from the forces at work. As exciting as the story is, the biggest question becomes will Mattias continue to fight his attraction to Alannah because of the secrecy of the Royal Elite. Definitely worth reading to find the answer! Great job to Ms. This is going to be another great series! Apr 19, Taylor rated it it was ok Shelves: While I enjoyed this book and the very different premise of this series, I found the book less addictive than the previous series.
This surprised me because I read all five of the books in the companion series one after the other and finished each one in less than three days. I think my major issue with the book was the relationship between Mattias and Alannah. The two had an interes After reading Danielle Bourdon's Latvala Royals series, I was excited to have a book dedicated solely to Mattias.

The two had an interesting dynamic and I appreciated Danielle Bourdon including a different kind of heroine in her books, but there was so much friction between Mattias and Alannah for the entirety of the book that I couldn't lose myself in the story. As such, it took me much longer to finish this book. I will probably read the next book in the series to see if the relationship between Mattias and Alannah is explored in more depth, but I can't rate this book nearly as high as I was hoping to.
Jan 02, Kelly rated it liked it Shelves: Well I have to say I agree with a lot of other reviewers, this book was good as a stand alone read but coming off the back of the Latvala series I just expected more.
The Royal Elite: Mattias
The last few Latvala novels earned four and five stars from me but this one a disappointing three. I liked both Alannah and Mattias but I didn't feel that they worked as a couple very well. We didn't get to know them intimately or deeply, just shallow observations and a vague impressions, which left me feeling as though they didn't Well I have to say I agree with a lot of other reviewers, this book was good as a stand alone read but coming off the back of the Latvala series I just expected more.
We didn't get to know them intimately or deeply, just shallow observations and a vague impressions, which left me feeling as though they didn't know each other and that bothered me. I much preferred the ending in which they both seem to want a relationship a lot more. On the positive side I always did have the distinct impression that Mattias would be a bit alright in bed!
Nov 26, Kaila rated it it was amazing. Danielle Bourdon is a fantastic storyteller. I am in love with the royals series. It has just enough suspense and mystery tangled in with the romance that leaves me wanting more and more. I believe this series could go on forever. I want to read more about the whole royal family and their brethren. Mattias was no different. I fell in love with Mattias from the first book in the Royals series. His whole demeanor had me wanting more.
See a Problem?
These novels are great reads that I will read o Danielle Bourdon is a fantastic storyteller. These novels are great reads that I will read over and over. I can't wait to read the rest and please please please Danielle write more of Chey, Sander and the rest of the Royals family. Probably my favorite series right now.
