Queen Reviews

   Well, well, well, look what I have gotten to. I started re-reading this book and I immediately realized why I liked it. I mean it really gave the vibe of "this could happen to anyone" with how it starts out. These women were stolen from their home in the PJ's with no understanding of what was about to happen. I think this is like the premise of so many alien movies or thoughts in our heads about randomly being abducted by aliens. Of course there is definitely some triggering things that happen in the beginning of this book. If you can make it past that scene then you will be into cold alien exploring heaven! If you liked Ruby Dixon's dragon books then you will like this series as well. The aliens in this series act the same way as the dragons! I really like that about this book but also there are some differences of course but that just makes things that much more interesting. There is the something that we find out later on about the people of this planet that I h

    Another great read!! Tori and Legion, had a lot to work through, what with her having a poison touch and him with his terrible past, it was going to be a tough road. Seeing them slowly break down the walls that they both had up with each made for a great read. The trials that they ended up having to deal with as time went on helped to give them a solid foundation. Though of course the past can never stay in the past and they have to fight for everything they've tentatively built. This was such nicely told story!! I loved meeting the characters, the world was beautifully built. I have not read the first book in this series but the author did an amazing job of not making you feel like you are missing pieces if you jump in with this book first. My only thing was Tori would be so blinded by emotions that she would make dumb decisions. It's her character flaw for sure. I can't say that I wouldn't react the same in some of those situations but not all of them.

       This book was so unexpectedly good! I listened to this book on audible and I really enjoyed the narrator. She did such a good job of differentiating between the character voices. Even when there was more than one person talking in a conversation she made it unique. I really look forward to reading the rest of this series especially with how this one ended! I can't believe that this happened this way! It will make what happens in the next book so interesting! I hope that the hype stays as good as it has been. In this book we meet Greer, the perfect political princess who falls in love with Maxen who just so happens to become the President. Though through a twist of fate, she ends up also falling for Embry Moore who is not only Maxen's best friend but also his vice president. The way that things played out in this book gave such a good explanation of how things work with people who live in this lifestyle. The narration added to how amazing I was able to find this book.

   I really liked this book!! I love books that are plot thick that also have spice in them! I do wish this one had more but the plot though!! This one reminds me of how I love The Demigods of San Francisco series. There is so much going on!! So many sub plots that all nicely get resolved. We have the mini plots along with the over arching plot and love story between Danica and Samael. This is how you do side plots!! I never really felt like there was much down time in the story. It's not high energy go the whole time but it's still pretty consistent on what is going on. You feel the urgency but you can still take in the sights, if that makes sense. I can't wait to get to the next book in this series to see how things go with Samael and Danica.     There wasn't much spice in this book. It's definitely still slowly burning. We got a bright spark in this one that I wanted to bask in. Samael was slowly breaking down the walls that Danica had around her hear

  Pretty sure if you were to look up the definition of spice in the dictionary there would be an image of this book somewhere. Whew it was hot. Leonid and Kalina couldn't keep their hands off each other!! Storywise, I was slightly surprised that we didn't touch more on the trauma that Kalina must have felt after being kidnapped and held captive for as long as she was.  She is a strong woman who falls a little bit into the darkness after being saved. I will say there isn't much development of the characters after this. I think Leonid was really the only one.  He was able to fix the broken things in the Bratva and grew into an amazing father. That's probably the most beautiful thing in this book. Also I love the changes that were made with the annotations for the Russian in this book. It was much easier to digest this time. I kept forgetting they were in Russia and not America. I wish there was some details about the country more, so that it sticks out.    Lik

  I really enjoyed re-reading this book. It only took awhile to get through since I almost always forget to go back to audible. But I finally finished it!! Sasha and Dak were amazing, they were able to advance the story so much more just through their interactions with each other. We learned so much about the Drakoni and how their world was before they were thrust unto earth. I also really liked that we got set up for the next book with already established characters. Everything feels really organic and not pushed on us that it's really nice! I'm trying not to spoil but yeah there is a lot more development in this story. It took the things that were already established in the first book and elaborated even more and added that much more to the world. This is how stories should be. There was minimal downtime while reading and the story really flowed. I liked that this book showed a different dynamic in relationships. Not everyone always comes into things enjoying smexy time. We s
