Picks up right where [b:Captivated|44180655|Captivated (Royal Covens #1)|J.R. Thorn|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1551613175l/44180655._SY75_.jpg|68724248] left off, thankfully because it was a cliffhanger. Evie’s still trying to navigate the insanity she was thrown into, and re-bond with her mates so this book weaves life-altering action and kindle-melting heat, all while giving us a really fun look at Sonya in her role as Queen of Hell (See: [b:Seven Sins|54873240|Seven Sins (Blood Stone #1-3)|J.R. Thorn|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1597082197l/54873240._SY75_.jpg|68120349]). Reading this, I couldn’t help but marvel at [a:J.R. Thorn|15295781|J.R. Thorn|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1541888257p2/15295781.jpg]'s writing, which I’m learning happens often.

I don’t want to spoil anything for any of this world so I’ll just say READ IT. Or listen to it. Just … experience it, you won’t be sorry. I’m off to read book 3 in the trilogy,[b:Consumed|44798575|Consumed (Royal Covens #3)|J.R. Thorn|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1554561200l/44798575._SY75_.jpg|69467453]. I don’t want it to be over, but I NEED it. Probably will re-read this down the line, it’s an addictive world.


4 stars
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️


Note:
I both read the ebooks and listened to the audiobooks.
Ebooks are formatted beautifully.
Audiobook, [b:The Vampire Curse: Royal Covens|54423727|The Vampire Curse Royal Covens (Books 1-3)|J.R. Thorn|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1594081008l/54423727._SY75_.jpg|71417059], is narrated absolutely perfectly. Narrator Vanessa Moyen has a very smooth voice (that even withstands speeding up the audio), perfect enunciation and great tone. A 5-star performance.




This book ends on a wicked cliffhanger; best to be ready with book 3,[b:Compelled|44293054|Compelled (Royal Covens #2)|J.R. Thorn|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1551904544l/44293054._SY75_.jpg|68815850]. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. ;)
