Slaying the Vampire Conqueror takes place in Carissa Broadbent's Crowns of Nyaxia world, and if you're following that series, this is a must-read, in Slaying the Vampire Conqueror takes place in Carissa Broadbent's Crowns of Nyaxia world, and if you're following that series, this is a must-read, in my opinion! The MMC, Atrius, is a vampire from the cursed House of Blood, and the FMC, Sylina, is a seer/member of the Arachessen. Both characters will show up later in the series, and trust me, you don't want to miss their incredible story. It totally surpassed all my expectations!
In fact, every book I've read in this series is fucking phenomenal, and the world we've been steadily learning more and more about for the past 4 books just keeps getting bigger and more interesting. If you asked me to pick a favorite book or couple right now, I couldn't. They're all that good! I can't wait to see where the author takes us next!...more
I've been in love with Adara and Evren since A Kingdom of Stars and Shadows, and they've only gotten more amazing since!
Adara has grown so much f3.75
I've been in love with Adara and Evren since A Kingdom of Stars and Shadows, and they've only gotten more amazing since!
Adara has grown so much from the girl she was when we first met her. She's a force to be reckoned with that doesn't need a prince to save her and has proven herself worthy of the crown and adoration of the kingdom.
Evren has continued to be the strong, swoony, sexy af hero I lost my mind over from the moment he appeared on the page. He's a born ruler that puts his people and his lady above himself and is prepared to fight and die for them if need be. He'll forever be my favorite part of this series.
A Kingdom of Venom and Vows is a solid conclusion to the Stars and Shadows series. That being said, the last part of the story unfolded in a way that was unexpected for me, and I didn't quite understand some of the choices the author made. Spoilers prevent me from explaining that statement further, but don't worry, Adara and Thalia get their moments to shine. If you're a fan of their friendship, you're in for a real treat!
It seems evident from some of the events in this book and the Sorin POV chapter that Thalia will be getting her own story next. If she's a favorite character of yours, you'll enjoy this finale all the more! Holly Renee delivered a fast paced, satisfying ending to the Stars and Shadows series, and I can't wait to see what else she gives us from this incredible world.
One of the best novellas I've ever read! It actually felt like a complete story. This author's writing is just absolutely beautiful. Rtc. One of the best novellas I've ever read! It actually felt like a complete story. This author's writing is just absolutely beautiful. Rtc. ...more
Holy shit! I don't even know how to begin this review. To say I enjoyed this book is an extreme understatement. Holly Renee impressed the hell out of Holy shit! I don't even know how to begin this review. To say I enjoyed this book is an extreme understatement. Holly Renee impressed the hell out of me with this creative, engaging, perfectly paced, captivating fantasy romance.
I would go as far as to say A Kingdom of Stars and Shadows is one of my favorite books of the year. In fact, if this series keeps moving in the direction it is now, it might just become one of my top fantasy series of all time. I know that's high praise, but with how much I enjoyed this read, it deserves it!
AKOSAS is the author's first foray into this subgenre, but if I didn't know beforehand, I would have never guessed. Her world building is so well done and easily digestible. All the information we need is delivered to us naturally in bite-sized pieces that don't bog you down and overwhelm you. There is no lengthy info dumps to be found here, and I seriously fucking appreciated that.
Fae, vampires, royalty, magic, political intrigue, arranged marriage, forbidden romance, a swoonworthy hero, a Starblessed heroine, scorching hot sexual tension, violence, and a healthy dose of steam, this book has it all! From the moment I picked it up, I was hooked, and I only became more enraptured as the story went on. It delivers in every single way. The plot, the characters, the romance, the world, literally everything about it gets an A plus from me!
Above all, A Kingdom of Stars and Shadows is just a damn good time! It's interesting, entertaining, sexy, enchanting, intriguing, and exciting. Adara and Everyn are EVERYTHING! Their banter gave me life. Every interaction between them is like foreplay, and the sexual tension pouring off the page is so intense you can FEEL it down to your toes.
Even if everything else about this story was mediocre, Everyn would make it a masterpiece! His one liners alone deserve 5 stars. This man had me fanning myself as soon as he was introduced! If you know me, you know it's hard to earn a spot in my fantasy harem, but Everyn reserved one almost immediately. He's strong, hot, sarcastic, powerful, playful, a little bit of an asshole (my kryptonite), half motherfucking vampire, and as skilled on the battlefield as he is in the bedroom. The way he is enamored with Adara and the things he says to her will have you full on swooning and damn near panting the whole way through the book. I'm talking turn up the air-conditioning and put an ice pack in your panties, y'all!!
I'm going to shut up now, because I could talk about this book all day. I love it so much I can't put it into words. This review doesn't even do it justice. You need to read it and experience this incredible story for yourself!
If you're a fantasy romance fan and even if you're not, please give this one a try. It's a great first fantasy for contemporary romance fans wanting to dip their toes in. Trust me, you won't regret it!...more
I picked it up with the intention of reading only a few chapters, but instead, I inhaled the whole damn thing in one night! I'm not surprised in the least though. Ella never disappoints! Her stories always hook me from the beginning and hold me captive until the very end.
The Hades and Persephone, Rumpelstiltskin, and The Swan Princess mix is interesting. I enjoyed watching the story unfold and looking for nods to each of the aforementioned tales. That being said, Opal and Dade's chemistry is what made the book for me. I couldn't get enough of their romance. Their connection was electric!
Dade in particular owned my heart. I swooned so hard over that man it was ridiculous! Despite some seriously unfortunate circumstances, he was a perfect match for Opal.
As far as the world building goes, there is more to learn about the one Ella created. I'm hoping that means she'll revisit it again in the future. If so, I'll be first in line to read it!
Omg! What a cliffhanger! I'm so fucking glad the rest of the series is already out, because that would have been a torturous wait. Omg! What a cliffhanger! I'm so fucking glad the rest of the series is already out, because that would have been a torturous wait. ...more

Ella Fields treats us to a damn good time in The Stray Prince! We spend most of that time in Beldine, the Fast-paced, fantastical, and action packed!
Ella Fields treats us to a damn good time in The Stray Prince! We spend most of that time in Beldine, the magical land of fae, in this installment. It's a whole new landscape to explore full of enchanted forest and magnificent creatures of all kinds. There's a new asshole wearing a crown thrown into the mix, too! I'm telling you, you will be entertained!
Our beloved couple's love is put to the test when a long buried secret comes to light. I have to be honest though. Ella did such a great job of convincing me that those two were meant to be in AKSC, I never doubted their commitment to one another for a second. The angst level felt much less intense than what I'm used to from this author because of that. That being said, it should be! This is an already established couple that are still in the honeymoon phase of their relationship. If I doubted them immensely, then I probably didn't believe in them in the first place.
The continuation of Audra and Zad's love story is refreshing and beautiful. Don't get me wrong, they have to work through some shit. It's not all sunshine and rainbows, but they have such a deep love and respect for each other that it's incredible to experience.
I'm in love!! It's exactly what I needed while trying not to have a nervous breakdown with all of this terrible weather that's freezing my pipes! I'm in love!! It's exactly what I needed while trying not to have a nervous breakdown with all of this terrible weather that's freezing my pipes! ...more
