Publisher's summary

I'm the heir of Zahariss.

My secret is no more, and the people know an heir walks amongst them, but so does another.

With broken vows and being hunted, I find myself in the most unlikely place of allies that will help me to right the wrong.

As we make plans to spill the Highers' blood across the land, he finds me. Darius, heir of Cazier.

After thinking we had some sort of connection, a truce, my enemy betrayed me.

He says he won't let me go, but he won't acknowledge what he has done to me.

With hatred burning bright, can we move on? Or will my wounds stay forever bleeding?

While uncovering more of the Highers' traitorous actions, and learning just how far they will go to gain their wishes...

The dark is rising, and we have to stop it. I just have to work with the enemy to find out how.

This is the second book in The Hidden of Vrohkaria series and ends on a cliffhanger. This is a first-person, MF, enemies-to-lovers, dark fantasy romance for mature listeners.

I love dark romantasy books

I found this to be a satisfying sequel to the first book. I liked the way things played out with Darius and Rhea personally. And I absolutely bawled when she finally revealed her secrets.

Meh

The 1st book was so promising! There was a definite plot and action and a creative magic system. Also, there was romance but it wasn't the whole plot. For book #2, it was. I'm all for some gratuitous sex scenes as long as there is a purpose and they further the plot or character development. This was excessive and I actually skipped quite a bit.

The overly dramatic internal monologuing drove me nuts and is a pet peeve of mine. Also, the romantic scenes were SO cheesy!!! Excessively sweet and unrealistic. Also, what's up with her inability to set a boundary and then enforce it?! I know they're wolves and maybe possessive, but how are we ok with our FMCs just shrugging off Chauvinistic/ misogynistic behaviors because sex? Does the MMC get a pass just because he's "an alpha"?? 🙄

Ehh just ehh

The story itself i feel like has gotten lost, its very heavy spice scenes which fine I like , but I also need a good plot and somewhere from book one into 2 the plot took a back seat to all the brooding rhea and forceful Dar . like I needed more moving parts to explain certain things. not just "omg we found something in daddys basement, now let's f**k my feelings away" . it almost felt like the last chapter was just an "oh yeah we need to loop in this to explain that super fast " also had issue with how twilight ish rhea was being , like woe is me Bella swan . girl get up you have a whole ass pack to find and hopefully rescue. but nooo she wants to shut down and not deal . will I read the next book sure , but I need a break from this series for now.
