This book was absolutely incredible! It features elemental magic, fae, dragons, legacy, gods, and the enigmatic Shadow Daddy, who has a slow-burn, brooding, and spicy personality. The story revolves around enemies-to-lovers and the discovery of magic. There are also wolves, vampires, and political intrigue. This dark fantasy romance is everything you could want and is incredibly addictive. If you decide to immerse yourself in the story, the narrators are perfect. It’s a must-read! Please check the trigger warnings.

This was an incredibly touching story, and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. The emotional aspects of the story are truly the core of its essence. While there is some spice, the plot itself is beautifully crafted. Narrator’s did a great job

Book 3 is, by far, my favorite. I feel like everything came together in this book, and you were able to experience dragons, war, and all the action. I absolutely loved it. The narrators were superb

If you love the son of anarchy then you will love this biker series the Kings of retribution MC book one is a mildly dark Romance that deals with abuse, SA, and the skin trade so check your trigger warnings. It’s about two sisters that struggle when the abusive stepfather, a rival Biker gang and a really bad boss the sister’s find a new family in the King of Retribution M C and protection. It does leave off with a cliffhanger Great Narrators!

I thoroughly enjoyed Alba and Gabriel’s story. Gabriel is incredibly broody and delectable. 🤤 I can’t help but think about the tropes they’re following—stalking (not the MMC), touching her, and pregnancy—all leading up to a HEA. I think im getting addicted to this series The narrators were perfection

Book 2 was even better than book 1. The close calls kept me gasping, but the ending I never saw coming was shocking. It was quite a twist.

Story
I found out my husband of three years had cheated on me and his mistress is the one who told me—because he didn’t have the balls to do it himself. I move out and get a new apartment, a job as a bartender, and try to move on with a broken heart. I wonder where it all went wrong, if I hadn’t been enough for him, if I’d been stupid for marrying him in the first place. I’m at work one night when he walks inside—the most beautiful man I’ve ever seen. He sits at the bar and a forest fire burns between us.

Reviewed: 05-29-25
The butcher was just okay for me. I don't think I'll be reading a book 2. It didn't captivate me like I had hoped, but it was a good story. However, it simply wasn't my cup of tea. The characters were fantastic, and the storyline was intriguing, but I feel like the story could've been condensed into one book instead of being spread out over three. Definitely spicy! ! would recommend this book to someone who loves dark romance. They would probably enjoy it, but it wasn't for me, so i'll give it three stars. The narrator’s performance was 5 stars

Fantastic Storyline and Really Lovable Main Character.

It was Good
Reviewed: 05-26-25
First and foremost, I must commend the Narrator’s exceptional performance. The story was generally enjoyable, although it did drag slightly for me. However, it picked up significantly towards the end. I don’t perceive this as an adult fantasy novel, except for a few instances where its removal would make it feel more like a Young Adult or New Adult story. The gargoyle serves as the central character and my personal favorite.

This book was absolutely amazing. We have bad witches, good witches Fae, goblins. We have fae that are prejudice against the witches because of the bad witches they think all witches are the same. The politics, the world building the character building. The enemies to lovers are actually true enemies to lovers. Fated enemies mates, I highly highly recommend this read. Do not miss out on this amazing story. The narrators were superb. Both narrators knocked this out of the park.
