A Kingdom of Stars and Shadows

Product Information

I was lost within the pages as this world Holly has given us has all things: mystery and intrigue, angst and steam, and a myriad emotions. 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. If you know me, you know it's hard to earn a spot in my fantasy harem, but Everyn reserved one almost immediately.

Every Starblessed is born with the ability to awaken the dormant and lethal magic that hides within a fae.

I love smut with my books, but hate it when there's a virgin heroine who sucks dick like she patents for Hoover and whose body is a pleasure machine. Overall, it’s a quick read that’s mildly entertaining but I would not compare it at all to ACOTAR or Blood and Ash as some of the other reviews do. Adara is Starblessed and fated to be the savior of the world and marry Gavril who is the crown prince of the Fae. This is yet another one of those books that are in the same vein as the Blood And Ash series AND I LOVED EVERY SINGLE SECOND OF IT!

There are some elements to this book that are a bit uni Seriously, for someone who's supposed to have this important task, this life that was controlled since birth and centered around a central role she was supposed to take, this lady knew very little of what was happening around her. The bastard son is her mate and love while her betrothed is the villain we believed all along despite his ''kindness''.In accordance with the current FTC disclosure rules for bloggers and reviewers, the books you see reviewed on the site are either purchased by us or are obtained through NetGalley, Edelweiss, or directly from the author or publisher in an exchange for an honest review. I just hope the next book can do something unexpected for me and made it stand out from the rest of the books like its kind. Jesus Christ, Mister Love Interest dropped bombs about him falling to his knees for FMC in the second chapter. Holly Renee impressed the hell out of me with this creative, engaging, perfectly paced, captivating fantasy romance. When she’s not writing, you can find her reading, pretending to be a dragon for the hundredth time that day, being disgustingly in love with her husband, or chilling in the middle of the lake with her sunglasses and a float.

But the execution here made the storyline feel rushed and inconsequential, and overall cheapened the effect I think the author was aiming for. For weeks, we retraced our steps back to Mistfell and the lingering shadow of the Veil at the boundary between realms. It's more: I like you, I feel a connection but I don't want to betray my kingdom or my future husband. I am told my union to the crowned prince will determine the fate of the kingdom, but it isn’t my betrothed who haunts my dreams. Constant action, sexy moments, and violent adventure make A Kingdom of Stars and Shadows an exciting read that you simply cannot put down.And the words he uses and his touches have the beautiful Adara the starblessed beauty who's been promised to his brother all twisted in knots and her body on fire! I saw the twists coming from a mile away, but it was still interesting to get through them to see how Adara would react as she was the one that was completely clueless while for the readers the clues were laid out for us throughout the book. Adara is a Starblessed human who's promised to the Fae prince and it's said that their union will determine the fate of their kingdom. It lacked the tension and angst that usually come with forbidden love between two people who are supposed to be enemies. It’s easier and faster if I carry you,” he grumbled without stopping, and I winced as my leg jostled against his chest.
