Publisher's summary

My fate is bonded to two princes—one born of blood, the other of power—but my trust lies in neither.

My skin is cursed by the stars, my fate damned by desire.

When the dark prince offers me a bargain that will save his people and my life, the cruel and intoxicating male gives me no choice. Our union is his revenge, and I am his sacrifice.

His lies are unforgivable. His wicked touch still bathes me in sin. He is my mate, and he is tortured by a curse to protect his people from his own family.

I can now see him for exactly who he is. So why can’t I get his alluring touch out of my head?

I am the key to saving his kingdom, but he alone has the power to ruin me.

loved it all over again

Again feel in love with this book and characters all over again. Idk why audible isn't showing that I have already listened to it but I have. It didn't record my last review either. I will wait to re-listen to book three after audible have published book 4 to purchase. I typically hate "princess " nicknames but coming from his mouth💥

Just a bunch of smutt, story line sucks

This book bored me to tears. Barely any story line, no character development. If your wanting something where there is no real connection in the characters, no depth. Barely a story and every other scene is sex then…this is for you.
Performers were ok but the need an actual story to tell.

Fantasy/ Paranormal Romance 📖 🎧

✨A Kingdom of Blood and Betrayal is the second book in the Stars and Shadows series by Holly Renee and it is everything you want in a deliciously steamy, fast paced, and swoon worthy fantasy romance. I listened to this story on audio as I read along and the narrators were absolutely wonderful! I fell in love with our two main characters even more as the narrators brought them to life.

The personal histories explored, the continued character development, and the new side characters introduced were all amazing. I loved the emotional intimacy, vulnerability, and intensity that develops between the love interests as they navigate life in the Blood Kingdom.

✨The romance in this story remains a consuming one, full of passion and possessiveness, all while transforming into something even more beautiful, more devoted, and more tender.

My heart broke a bit for both of our main characters throughout the story as their relationship struggles after the betrayals revealed at the end of book one. In our MMC’s attempts to salvage their relationship and their bond, we learn more about his past, his intentions, and future hopes and dreams for his Kingdom and his Princess.

✨I absolutely love this series and highly recommend A Kingdom of Blood and Betrayal to those who enjoy steamy romances, and fantasy/ paranormal romances.

This series is available on Kindle Unlimited! The first two books in the series are also available on Audible

The voice actors did a great job

They made me believe I was watching a movie with how good their acting of the characters were!

Great sequel

I definitely did not see the end coming for this book (book 2). I’m hooked and will be reading book 3 shortly.

Great performance!

I love both of the voice actors they do such a good job and they along with the story are a great spicy adult fantasy that had me both intrigued with the storyline and loci gong the dirty talk! I just wish it was longer or the next book was out because I want to read it but also don’t want to miss out on the performance of these two in order to continue the story!

A little disappointed

The first book was great but this book fell short in a lot of ways. Ervin was captured…how did he get away? What did they do to him? I started to get annoyed with Adara’s love/ hate mood swings. I felt like there could’ve been more plot to balance out the sexual encounters. Adara and Evrin are mates but she chooses to hate him over the smallest things. She whines and pouts unless they are having sex. Sadly, it only got exciting in the final chapter.
