I wavered between rating the third book 'okay' and 'liked', but that I skimmed most of the last 10% or so of it had to push it down to an 'okay'. Luckily the relationship aspect of the story remained strong in the third book, so that somewhat carried it. Unfortunately the third book fell down hard on that aspect of the story, and so much of what happened wasn't at all believable and/or felt very rushed. In the first two books, the political end of things were just as interesting (if not more so) than the relationship between the two men. one who was also losing the struggle for his rightful power. That prince-turned-slave ended up in the hands of the prince of that nation. In one nation, a bastard brother got the upper hand and sold his non-bastard brother into slavery in the enemy nation. Two enemy nations were dealing with internal power struggles, and both nations had a culture of slavery. In the first two books we had some interesting worldbuilding. The Captive Prince trilogy is a twisty political story mixed with a love story.
