They fought so incredibly hard that I can only call it a bittersweet ending.
I laughed. I suffered. I cried.
Did you really have to shatter my heart that much?
I enjoyed both books - I love every character and the worldbuilding was so strong, I can really imagine the beauty of Vallene - almost as if I had been there. Incredible.
I look forward to everything that will happen in Coronthea in the future - or happened in the past? I take every little bit!

"I’m guessing you like your massages like you like your sex – hard and deep."
"Doesn’t everyone?"
"Your poor, sweet little cunt must have been so unsatisfied these past few weeks. So empty."
"What makes you think you can fuck me better than I can?" She angled her hips so with the next slide, the thick head of his cock found purchase and was allowed to spear her. "You’re so full of yourself."
"You’re the one full of me right now."
BRO ITS CHAPTER 1 😭😭
Solid 5 ⭐ but it deserves 3 because I hated the certain thing that happened. I cried too much and my heart broke. Why my man's had to die? That's right, someone died. Is it because I loved him more than the main characters? 😔
I must say I felt nauseous reading certain parts but I wanted to complete it but proceed with caution ⚠️.
Plot: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Spice: 🌶🌶🌶
Of Cindered Frost is heavier on the heart than Of Shattered Dawn.

This Saga continues to get better and more interesting with each book! I truly love how the author writes her characters from a different perspective than is common. Lots of world building, lots of characters and viewpoints but still easy to read/keep track of! Of Cindered Frost is a fantastic sequel that did not disappoint!
These two are some of my favorite authors at the current time!!! I would read anything they wrong 10 times over again! Fantasy, spice, multi viewpoints, etc… this has it ALL!
Thank you to BookSirens and authors for my advanced reader copy I received before release date in exchange for an honest review!

I wasn't ready for this book at all.
This story picks up where Of Shattered Dawn left off and answers all of our burning questions.
The dark evil plaguing Coronthea is finally revealed and Sabil, Vastran, and the rest of their found family must fight to save the realm. Sabil's powers and place in Coronthea is also revealed as well as key details of her past. We learn that everything is woven together and only through sacrifice can the realm be saved.
This book tears you apart and then in the last few chapters puts you back together again. Tears were falling onto my Kindle towards the end of this story. The Coronthea Saga is an amazing romantasy read and I highly recommend for anyone looking to sink into a fae world with tons of magic, court politics, and spice.
I can also say, now that I've finished the series, I need more! I'm still not ready to say goodbye to these characters. I would love a spinoff with Nellor or even a prequel of the Dragonblooded coming into their powers while getting into trouble. This series has left its mark on me in a way only great fantasy novels can. A truly wonderful read 😭❤️📚

If novels had tags: here there be dragons, shifter romance, fae fantasy, political intrigue, moderate heat, established relationships, one more tag that I can’t add at risk of spoiling.
The second book of the Coronthean Saga kicks off where book one finished, with our merry band of misfits planning a mission to infiltrate the Palace of Dasar in Diamenti, to find out what the heck is going on and how to stop the brewing war. This was a relatively satisfying conclusion to this arc of the story, with an absolute belt ton of serious angst towards the end that I can’t go into without serious spoilers, but I was in genuine tears reading it. Granted, it was 3am and I’d just finished night duty, but I digress.
It was the main villain arc that stopped me giving this a full five stars, largely because I felt that it had a whole lot of potential that didn’t quite go as far as I’d hoped.
THE YEAHS
THE NAH’S
All in all, a satisfying conclusion to the story of these first two books. With a cute little epilogue at the end that suggests another story in the future, I’m looking forward to seeing if there will be more coming from Coronthea. As I’ve mentioned in the past, If you’re a fan of ACOTAR and From Blood and Ash, I think you’ll be drawn into this world and the characters in it. Fans of Romantasy definitely won’t be disappointed to give this series a chance.

THE YEAHS
Sabil: All of the characters in this novel are rich and distinct, with the same credits as my last review. But Sabil deserves her own spot this time, so brilliantly did I love her. She grows as a character, becoming a strong woman in her own right, but is still flawed, still screws up. The best thing about it, however, is that she is held to account by her companions when she does. To many times do we read a powerful woman character who gets it wrong, but it’s brushed off or forgiven easily. Not Sabil; when she messes up, not only does she own it, but she is held accountable. And I love that.
Lenne: Last time around, I wasn’t sure about Lenne. I was suspicious of her, but also a little bit bored. This time around, Lenne is a shining star. A brilliant character who proves herself in many ways, and goes through it for those she loves. She’s not just there like she was in book one, she is an integral character, and the catalyst for the story playing out the way it does. Genuinely the star of this novel for me.
The Tower: Holy moly, that tower was creepy. The atmosphere here was written bloody brilliantly.
The writing style: In book one, I was a little put off by the abrupt way the POV shifts between characters mid scene, almost like an RP being written paragraph for paragraph. While shifts still do occur in OCF, it is SO much more subtle, and far less often. It feels like Camille and Thalia have gotten much more comfortable in their writing together, and it flows far more seamlessly. There were no instances of me being pulled from immersion because of it. Also, I’m delighted to announce that there are only ten instances of faces being cupped in the ENTIRE novel (yes, I counted, I never said I’m not petty!). Horray for narrative growth!
Pharos: I’m not going into any more detail here. Those who have read know what I’m referring to. Those who haven’t yet…brace yourselves.
THE NAH’S
Dren: This one is a grey one. And may get a little spoilery so skip this dot point if necessary. Dren has a LOT of potential. He’s set up to be an incredible villain, especially early when he’s first introduced. However, I feel like he was done a bit of injustice here; there’s no real depth to his motivations or who he even is, beyond a passing revelation midway through. His magic, the curses he weaves and the strange orb thing he gives Cillean are all kind of just there, to advance the story without much else to go on. I feel like if more time had been spent on him, and the battle with him had been a little more drawn out, the stakes could have been higher with a more satisfying payoff. This is really the only thing that lets the novel down for me; he has so much promise early on, and it’s squandered a bit.
the Aftermath: With one exception, the aftermath did start to feel a bit drawn out. Of course, most of it was necessary; part of the storyline was Sabil learning who she really is, and that couldn’t have happened before Dren’s defeat due to the tensions between courts. But the back and forth between that, and Viana and Pharos’s storyline, gave me such emotional whiplash. I think perhaps it’s simply a matter of the structure of those storylines, rather than anything else.
All in all, a satisfying conclusion to the story of these first two books. With a cute little epilogue at the end that suggests another story in the future, I’m looking forward to seeing if there will be more coming from Coronthea. As I’ve mentioned in the past, If you’re a fan of ACOTAR and From Blood and Ash, I think you’ll be drawn into this world and the characters in it.

Of Cindered Frost is the second book of Coronthean Saga so this review may contains spoilers from the first book, Of Shattered Dawn.
I was about to be a huge fangirl after reading the first book but now I definitely am a fangirl of Coronthean Saga. The only thing that bothers me is that there is not enough people to talk about it!
Our sweet Lenne is going to an undercover mission in Dasar to find out why Cillean acts so out of character and the possibility of a curse that took over 3 Archons. The things she found out reveals more secrets to deal with while others still working on solving the current ones. They find unexpected allies for the war they are trying to avoid and not so unexpected new problems.
I read this one in less than 24 hours and I have zero regrets. I LOVE both books so much but I must warn you there is a huge possibility for you to cry – I did and I’m not ashamed.
From now on I’m a huge fan of both authors not only because the wonderful story and world they created but also because they are of the sweetest people I met through books. I’ll most likely read anything they write, even a cookbook!

Book 2 started off from where book 1 finished.
It is imperative that you read book 1 before you read this book.
The story of these worlds and the interaction between the mc's carries on at a pace, emotionally, physically and plot wise. There are no holes barred in this thorough and utterly fulfilling story. There is a huge strength in the writing that as in book 1, just pulls you along by the scruff of the neck and will not let you go until the worst possible time… the final full stop on the last page.
This storyline is very believable with characters who learn and develop both as individuals and team players as we progress. It is a huge emotional rollercoaster that has you smiling and happy at some stages and in utter despair and tears in other places. You will be kept on your toes and never safe and knowing what is coming next.
This book has it all - politics, romance, strong love interest, mystery and subterfuge, magic and mystical creature and a story line that is just buzzing and constantly moving and challenging. Most importantly it is told with a skill that I have rarely seen. These are stories that you will want to read again and again. There will always be, I suspect, something new and hints that were missed each previous read.
The writers of this book are, or will no doubt be very soon, utter masters of their craft and I for one really hope that there are more books to come in this brilliant series. There are enough unanswered questions and possible directions for the story to travel at the end to fill another book or two at the very least.
Be prepared to be blown away , exhausted and totally fulfilled when you read this book. I cannot urge you enough to add this to your collection.

I did not think that the second book could be better than the first book, because the first one was mind-blowing. But; I found the second book to be a tiny bit better, which would actually make this one PERFECT!
It is very rare and so, so satisfying when you come across a gem like this. The story that keeps you up at night reading, even though you are going to work the next day. The characters that you think about all day the next day when you should be working. The language is so elegant and eloquent that it is a pure joy to read, even with some typing errors.
I have read that this is the final book of this series, which makes me sad. But it is actually also a good thing, as I find series with too many books just drag on and on and make me lose interest.

What more can I say?? I am a huge fan of this powerful duo. Camille and Thalia are masters of fantasy. They give u such an amount of detail that has you intimately engrossed in the characters stories but not so much that the world building takes a genius IQ to understand. I love to read complex plots but I hate to have to work too hard to understand it. If you are like me, please give these girls a read. You will LOVE their books as much as I do.
This book in particular is such an absolutely delicious and delightful follow up to the first, and WOW! I am just blown away by it. It gives you everything! There’s adventure, fantasy, romance, heart twisting tragedy and wraps it all up with a grand conclusion.
I am a loyal fan and cannot wait for more books to come from these two.

It has been such a joy beta reading this beautiful little duet for Camille and Talia. As usual these two weaved a story that made me laugh, made me cry, made me swoon.. honestly just made me feel all of the feelings.
One of my favorite things about their writing is just the way that they craft these complex, lovable characters. I found myself so connected to each of these characters, which of course got a little messy when my favorite characters ended up in distress… more than once. Seriously, so many distressing things happen ranging from a little curse to battle with the forces of evil and I was an anxious mess hoping all of my babies would be okay.
But, I adored these books. I really wish I could sit here and gush about everything that happens but for the sake of not spoiling the book I’ll just say that everything that’s meant to happen happens.
Oh and there is so much smut. Which honestly readers should always expect from Camille and Talia.

What a delight it was, to reunite with these characters and learn more about the larger world they live in. The heat stays on high, for sure.
So much is packed into this next phase of the saga! I would have liked to see the Big Moments (and there are a LOT Of them) better supported by connecting scenes, along with some smoothing of who is talking when, and which head we're in, and whether thoughts were out loud or inner dialogue.
Overall, though, I wept and laughed and squirmed in my seat plenty for my enjoyment. Would recommend and read again. Thank you for trusting me on your review team. May all readers be as thrilled as I was!

This book was a terrific sequel, picking right up where book one left off! As the plot thickens we continue to dive into the court politics, examine the secondary characters more closely, and of course get more romance and delicious spicy scenes.
The world building and Magic systems continue to be incredible and I really would love to read more from this world! The writing flows well and is descriptive and engaging.
I have to say one of my favorite aspects of these books are the multiple character POVs. The way we are able to connect with each character is so important to the character development and plot! I adore the banter! Honestly I highlighted so many funny parts between characters! I just love the wit and one liners. The flirting, tensions, found family…it’s all just so good!
Thank you so much to BookSirens for allowing me to read this next installment in the Coronthean Saga

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Of Cindered Frost! It made me feel all the emotions. Joy, sadness, anger, proud, devastated…this book makes you feel it all! I loved seeing how the relationships continued to develop and obviously loved all the smut. Even though the big bad was resolved, I do think they could pick it back up for a 3rd book and explore the dynamics of a certain someone’s new position. I’d definitely read more!

Well book 2 starts off with a spicy bang that is for sure.
Viana and Pharos pretending they do not love each other while falling harder than they both realize.
Sabil and Vastran no longer fighting their feelings and becoming stronger for it.
This book has love, unimaginable loss and moe magic then ever before.
I do not want to spoil anything but not everyone makes it through this book in one piece. The losses change everyone.
I loved how the ending left room for more with the next generation.

Even better than the first one. I think the writing was better although there were still some parts that needed editing (mostly missing words).The characters grew and changed perfectly although I do feel Lenne didn’t quite respond the way I would have expected after the first book. The ending was a bit confusing, that letter didn’t really have enough context for a decent epilogue. And I really would like to know more of what happened in between the ending and that letter! I was definitely emotionally invested and unable to put this one down!

The first 20% of the book felt like it dragged on for too long. There were certain parts that I thought the authors would have spent more time on and it was over in the blink of an eye. The plot felt messy and there are so many loose ends. Also, there are just too many similarities to the books written by Sarah J Maas. I think this series should have been a trilogy. That way, they could have explored all the different storylines. Also, I can’t forgive the authors for what they did- get ready to have your heart broken.

I’m devastated that there are only 2 books in this series.
These 2 books, Of Shattered Dawn and Of Cindered Frost will take you on a journey of emotion.
There are different love interests with plenty of 🌶️ that caters for all. The story line and plot is so good you are engaged throughout. The friendships and betrayals and sacrifices have you feeling everything that’s going on.
This is definitely one of the best series I have read, the story is amazing the writing is amazing!
I can’t believe it’s over 😩

There are different love interests with plenty of 🌶️ that caters for all. The story line and plot is so good you are engaged throughout. The friendships and betrayals and sacrifices have you feeling everything that’s going on.
This is definitely one of the best series I have read, the story is amazing the writing is amazing!
I can’t believe it’s over 😩

I really wanted to like this one but alas, I did not. I received an ARC from Book Sirens and here is my honest review
This was a 2.5 star rating for me. The whole book felt so rushed and there were so many loose ends. All that training for nothing. The final battle was over within minutes. There was way too much focus on the sex scenes and less on character development and world building. I am sad that this is over because it had so much potential. Not sure if I will read anything else by this author but I never say never.

Wow what a thrilling, emotional book to read. So much magic, suspense, drama and a tragedy combined. Well written. My heart broke with Vianna, had to shed a tear or two. Sabil's magic evolving was was exciting. Definitely answering all the questions book 1 left me with as well as a few unexpected surprises.

Great book but had to take a star off for all of the writing mistakes that could have easily been avoided with more editing. Words misspelled, words missing in the middle of sentences, having the complete wrong word in sentences as well. Just silly things that bring this book down so much. I hope they fix these errors in the future and pay more attention to things like that going forward.
