Publisher's summary

They say there's no rest for the wicked, and New Orleans never knew how true that was until I came to town.

Nobody told me that when I entered the transition, the very gifts of my demonic lineage would be used against me. Nobody warned me that the flames of hell would burn from within. Or that I'd be driven to lust and madness, my chaotic magic becoming more wild and unruly than ever before.

The only way to save myself - and the world - was to give the beast what she wanted: control.

As if transitioning wasn't enough, my presence was now known, and my enemies were mounting. While the beast was intent on claiming our Four Horsemen, there were things to be done. People to find. Demons to kill.

And when they make a deal with the devil - let's just say that neither world will ever be the same again.

Long live the queen. If I can survive becoming immortal, that is.

Contains mature themes.

💩 hits the fan

Sh*t hits the fan in this third installment of the Queen of the Damned series. I finally got to see Ruby being a total badass, and the smut I was craving. However, contrary to what some reviews claimed, the book isn't only sex. If I divide the novel in four parts, the smut is found in parts 1 and 3; while 2 and 4 have action, plot progression and info important to worldbuilding. So, no, don't skip book 3 because there's two characters manipulating Ruby for more than they are letting the reader know. I bet on it!

Ruby is a powerful demon.

Ruby is the star character. She is also the most powerful demon created. But she treated as a kid. Can't wait for to blossom in the future novel's to come. WATCH OUT.

The sexual connection

This book basically was about all the sexual bonds she can have with each partner then all of them at once. I would have liked the same story telling with some sex scenes sprinkled in might have been better. Overall this book did not stop me from listening to the final book.

We're getting somewhere!

We finally made it through Ruby's transition! A TON of stuff happens to get there and we get a scare towards the end, but I like where we're heading!
Off to Hell Ruby Morningstar!!
Oh btw, Hollie Jackson did great narrating as usual!

4-4.5 Stars for book 3 of this series

I was happy overall with book 3 of Kel's Queen of the Damned series, some things made me smile and I couldn't stop listening, some things kinda threw me and took me out of the story. I think Ruby and Julian frustrated me the most in this book to be honest. I think the stress with transitioning made it hard on everyone, but when the guys didnt trust her/ignored her and Ruby and the beast subsequently kept running away, it was a tad annoying/frustrating. I thought the sexy times was great, besides some of the things Julian did (I knew he would be more of a Dom, based on his control in previous books, but it wasn't as smooth as I would have hoped). I loved the others in this and it hurt my heart with what Julian had to do to find Ruby and the beast (definitely put him back on my good side after all his bs from other books haha). I was again fascinated by the relationship between Ruby and Moira and Ruby and Bandit. I thought there were some good jokes and snark in this one too, I appreciate Kel kept that going throughout the series. The progression with the plot was sorta out of left field for me, it makes more sense in book 4 but I was kinda taken aback in this one with it.

Narration was good with some of the new characters we meet, but again the Aussie/Brit accent changes kept throwing me. I did think Hollie did a phenomenal job with all the tension, angst, feelings of love, heartache. 4/5 stars for the narration.

Ok, on to book 4! I really hope Kel comes back to this world at some point, I think it could be a lot of fun with all the side characters and additional storylines she could build off of, with some cameos hopefully 😉😁❤️

One more book down

The spice!! I do love me a good reverse harem. I love that tone of the familiars is a raccoon named bandit. I also really enjoy that the plot is heating up and hints have been made to a bigger story at hand.

As gripping as the previous two.

This was as good as tghch past two and I can’t wait to see how this ends. PHENOMENAL NARRATION BY HOLLIE JACKSON GIVES THIS BOOK A FLARE THAT KEEPS YOU READING LONG AFTER YOU SHOULD BE GOING TO BED. LOL. WE’RE IN BOOK THREE NOW, AND THESE CHARACTERS ARE SO WELL DEVELOPED, YOU’RE VESTED NOW. I CAN’T WAIT TO SEE WHERE KEL TAKES THIS AND HOW THIS WILL WRAP UP. SEXY, HOT AND ADDICTIVE, IT’S A SERIES THAT WILL PULL YOU IN FROM THE FIRST PAGE. IT HAS REMINISCENCES OF JEANA SHOWALTER, AND NEAL GAIMAN ROLLED INTO ONE. THIS IS THE FUONEST SERIES I’VE READ IN A LONG TIME. IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR DARK, HOT, SEXY FUN THAT WILL HAVE YOU READING UP TO THE VERY END, YOU’LL LOVE THIS ONE. HAPPY READING, AND BUCKLE UP. IT’S GOONA BE ONE HELLUVA RIDE FORSURE.
