DARIUS:

There she lay in all her glory...it was her: Dalia from the Wild.

As she lay upon the manicured turf eating a fresh peach under a heavy tree, my mouth salivated as she sexily consumed her delicacy.

She was unaware I stood there as I cocked my head to admire that lovely unspoiled girl.

Her long golden locks spiraled all around her while her wet lips suctioned on that tempting fruit.

Her eyelashes to her pink freckled cheeks...she was like sunshine in the shadows, as if in a forbidden garden.

I, as sweet as Lucifer, would snake my way into her thoughts with mere words. Words of truths she had yet to know.

Was this truly the Wild Cherry the Workfolk Guardians had fought that night to check her virtue?

Was this Dalia the one who had escaped the Workfolk trade, still untouched?

I grinned devilishly at the hen that would lay the golden eggs that could heal our land and cure my father.

Her tart and seductive responses were fresh and challenging.

But how?

How would I steal her from Dr. Lord Kaine Remmington's fortified residence?

I would find a way. Truly it was Dalia's blood that ruled, for he who had her had immense power over all of Hearth.

Dalia's blood reigned...She would be mine.

KAINE:

Desperate, I traveled from Eden, the highest kingdom on Hearth, searching for Sabrina's offspring who could carry a DNA link and cure.

I was venturing into the Wild, far from our cities to the slum boroughs.

Would Sabrina and her sister, Delila, have given up life in Eden to live in squalor & birth a royal baby in utter poverty? Those in the Wild lived like the mythical Vikings without any crude weaponry. Their struggle to survive was real.

I would send the Workfolk Guardians...

Not...a...dull...moment!

kept me thinking

Really good storyline just know to pay attention to the book I believe more of my questions will be answered in book two. I enjoyed the book do not get me wrong and I believe you will too. not recommended for under 18

I liked it

The storyline is unique. I enjoyed the duet narration by the three talented narrators. The characters are interesting. The book was entertaining.

Interesting and Sexy!!

This audiobook was fire!! The story was very interesting. Our FMC is a virgin with special blood that can save her world. And everybody wants her!! There was never a dull moment and the sexy scenes were so good! And that ending! My eyes went wide because it ended so abruptly on a cliffhanger, but don't fret, there's more to come!!

Great story!💜

This story was very good with a unique twist. Plenty of drama, angst and suspense. A fantastic beginning to this series. I can’t wait to start the next story.
The narration, first, all the narrators did a fantastic job voicing their characters. I was especially impressed by Grace Noble, who was outstanding in her terrified voice.
Second, J. Tipstone was amazing when I could hear him. There seemed to be a little sound issue. At times it was very difficult to hear his smooth sexy voice 🔥.
Last but definitely not least, Jack Calihan did a great job as always. I think I already hate his character 😂 but it’s early yet.
Regardless of any issues I had, it has not deterred me from wanting more, a lot more. 🥰
This is book 1 and does have a cliffhanger but continues in book 2.
I recommend this book.

Super Good

Loved the story. The originality was very unique . Awesome author Jessie Fox. The narration was great . The story pulls uou in from the beginning and holds your attention. Definitely want more from this author.

excellent read

very well written and told it leaves you wanting more can't wait to read the others. The book is definitely for mature audiences

If you enjoy breeding tropes and dubious consent this is the series for you.

Blood Reign is not about vampires, but set in a disparate dystopian society where the FMC is stolen from The Wilds and thrust into a futuristic world full of creature comforts and obsession. With multiple POVs you get into the minds of our nascent FMC trying to find her purpose and place, Kaine wanting her and her body for the future of Eden, and the dastardly Darius maneuvering to claim her as his own. The most interesting part of this story is how the character loses her v-card twice! This book is fast moving and well paced. Full of delicious scintillating scenes with both men, keeping you riveted as this story unfolds.
The Audible version amplifies this with multiple voices speaking and narrating adding additional drama to this salacious series.
TW: This story is not for anyone uncomfortable with questionable consent and controlling relationships. It also gets a rating of 5 on the special scale with vivid descriptions that will not disappoint.

Intriguing and Sexy

This was an unexpected story. The title made me think vampires but it ended up being an interesting SciFi/Fantasy twist with world-building that reminded me of Rise of the Illiri. The more that unfolds, the more you feel like you are peeling the layers that the author crafted for her world and a better understanding of the disparity of science between the Wild and Eden. The characters are fascinating and I look forward to seeing where this story takes us as it ends on a cliffhanger!

Blood Reign

Are you serious, you just had to end the book like that. That's so mean, but i have to admit this book is good. One girl, two men, one has good intentions and the other might just want her for what she can do for his family. Or maybe they both really love, idk you'll just have to read/listen to this book. Im sure you will like it too. Cant wait for book 2.

What A Surprise

This is the first book by this author I have come across so never having read anything by her I decided to jump right in and listen to this, the first book in a very unusual and well-crafted series. It's a series that is dark in places and has some triggers so please be aware and read the blurb before purchasing. I'll be honest and say that the first thing that drew me to the book was the excellent team of narrators, Grace Noble, J. Tipstone and Jack Calihan who is a personal favourite of mine. But now that I've listened to this book I am totally hooked! I will definitely be listening to the rest of the series as it becomes available in the audio format.

The plot is unusual, complex, dynamic and well thought out and the world-building, descriptive writing style is such that I was on the edge of my seat trying to follow the many unexpected twists and turns the story took. The characters are very well-drawn and you can't help but be drawn into their lives. Dalia is a strong and compelling character who because of her unique bloodline finds that she's suddenly thrust into a perilous journey to save her race and has to navigate the manipulations of Kaine and Darius, the two intriguing males suddenly thrust into her life. Dalia seems to go from one dangerous situation to another and somehow copes with everything thrown at her. As for Kaine and Darius, they couldn't seem more different although both are handsome.

As there are three books in this series and as you would expect this one ends on a cliffhanger something you need to be aware of. That said all three books are readily available now.

The narrators Grace Noble, J. Tipstone and Jack Calihan all do a fantastic job of bringing these interesting and compelling characters to life.
