Resumen del Editor

The curse will destroy us all.

Montana:
I’m changed beyond return, my life torn apart by the god who forced this fate upon me.

Now I’m a creature of ruin and bloodshed, but the price I’ve paid comes with the sweetest of gifts.

The prince who claimed my heart has seized me once again, but this time, I’m on equal ground. I’m strong enough to fight at his side and face the wrath of our enemies, but some dark plot is brewing in the city, and I fear what’s coming.

Because it feels like an unforgiving storm.

Callie:
My sister is lost, and I don’t know if we will ever be whole again. Will she love me as she once had, or will her newfound hunger be the death of us?

Though I’ve reclaimed my freedom, the taste of it is bittersweet. Because without my twin, nothing feels right.

And even though I can finally claim the man my soul aches for, I’m afraid of the darkness seeping into my life.

The threat of gods and monsters is mounting upon us by the hour, and time is running out to save us all.

***This is a dark, fantasy romance series by the authors of Zodiac Academy with all the enemies to lovers vibes – don’t go expecting a sweet vampire with sparkling skin and a tendency to watch you sleeping. These vampires are savage and bloodthirsty, and the slayer who hunts them will stab first and ask questions later. This war-torn fantasy world is a brutal bi*ch and only those 18+ have a chance at surviving the darkness lurking in this book. There’s no well-meaning vampires snacking on Bambies instead of babies, and if they get their teeth into you, you’ll be damn lucky to escape with your life and panties intact. So grab hold of your slayer blade (wooden stakes have too many splinters) and get ready to defy the gods, because this is going to be one helluva ride***

little depressed

loved it all the way through but I got to tell you the truth hated the ending

Exciting and, at times, humorous!

***Spoilers ahead:

Just when you think our vampires and slayers are on the cusp of their happily ever afters, that b**ch Valentina rears her gorgeous head!
I have to say, I get where Valentina is coming from. She’s been lead on by not one but two hot guys for a millennium. That’s enough to make anyone feel a little stabby. That being said, ultimately I’d say it’s her fault for being an absolute idiot and allowing herself to be put in that position. Come on, girl—have some self-esteem!
Unfortunately, none of this does anything to alleviate the pickle our main characters find themselves in at the end of the book. The last chapters where Magnar and Erik aren’t, ahem, quite themselves, had me giggling and kicking my feet. I loved the moments of levity these chapters provided, even though the overall tone of this series frequently remains heavy.
I loved the spice we got from our main couples and am also now seriously rooting for a Clarulius/Julice story line!!!! I find myself alternately feeling bad for Fabian and wanting to punch him in the face, and I think that’s appropriate for his predicament. Also, are Miles, Warren, and the new character Danielle being sketchy? I can’t decide.
The narrators, once again, did a great job. I feel as though the male narrator was trying to more fully differentiate the tones of Erik and Magnar’s voices and I appreciated the effort. I wonder how many takes it took for him to nail the “cage” scenes without giggling. :)

Overall, I continue to find these books highly bingeable, and I’ve finished each one in a day.
On to the next installment!

Cliffhanger gah!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶️🌶️🌶️

"I dreamed of you every night before I met you"'You were the most desperate desire of my heart a thousand years before you were even born."

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, I felt it’s one of the best of the series yet! And I’ve loved them all so much! The cliffhanger was wild but also funny? You’ll see. 🤣 this is a MUST READ series for anyone who loves pnr stories and Twisted Sisters fans. This series showcases everything I love about their writing and it’s an absolute TREASURE of a series. With five books down, it’s the perfect bingeable story!

Loved it!

*Spoiler*
Good series, love the characters! I cracked up about Erik and Magnar kissing! 😭😭😭 It’s worth a credit or a buy. They need to hurry up and drop the last 2 books, I don’t have time to read them on my kindle

Very fun

Fun. Not super deep but fun and the characters were fun. I wish the next book were available on tape

Best one so far

The last book fell off for me a little bit, but now I can’t get enough of it

Oh the cliffhangers!

Every time I feel like they’re close to solving the prophecy something backfires. I was so happy to see progress in both sides working together but naturally these books can’t leave on a good note. These cliffhangers always have me on the edge of my seat! Still really enjoying the series.

This book flew by!

This is probably the installment I read the fastest- the pace was nonstop and I loved getting to see Monty back with Eric as her “new but still the same” self. Love Callie & Magnar, too, but Erik is definitely my guy. Also I am PUMPED about a couple I’m predicting are endgame. Possibly 2.
The gods (& Valentina) continue to be A DUMPSTER FIRE and I’m so mad at Idun.
But this installment absolutely has all the swoons, heartbreak, drama, and comic relief that I love about the Twisted Sisters.
2 left in this great series!!

*also, because this is audible specific* just a moment to reiterate my massive crush on Troy Duran. Like read me a cereal box and I’m hooked. 🥵

Steamy fun with good narrators and a twisty ending

Obsessed with this revamped series and thoroughly enjoyed this installment! Things were going pretty well, then in true Twisted Sister fashion, the last 15% was pure chaos. The cliffy is cliffing me! I am so invested in these characters. Must know how things are going to play out after that crazy turn of events. Please give us the next audiobook ASAP!

Am I starting to feel bad for Fabian? 🤭 There is a new potential relationship on the horizon (that I initially noticed in the previous book). 😍 I seriously dislike emeralds. 😠😫

🎧 Worth the credit. Troy Duran and Michelle Sparks are often reliable narrators for me. Despite this not being my favorite performance, it was still a worthwhile listen. I wish the Twisted Sisters audiobooks would get the duet narration treatment.

Loved it!

The authors did it again. This book is amazing. Montana is now a vampire with Erik, and Valentina is causing even more trouble. This book has so many twists and turns, I love it so much!
