Wicked Thirst

The Royals: Vampire Court #3

by Megan Montero

His power will end…
He is a monster and it’s all my fault. I heard whispers of a curse, but I didn’t want to believe it was true . . . I was wrong.

I’ve loved Grayson Shade from the day we met and now that love has doomed him to death. He tried to warn me, he tried to protect himself but I wouldn't let him. If he'd only told me the truth, I would've let him go. I would've done anything to save him, us, from this fate. His secrets brought nothing but ruin and pain, and now his best friend is bound to an unbreakable vow - one I refuse to let happen. I owe it to Grayson to ensure this hunt for him leads to his capture and not his death.

When a vicious attack on The House of Shade leads to a declaration of war the vampire world is on the brink of collapse. Blood coats the walls of Grayson’s home, they need him now more than ever. Grayson is not the monster they believe him to be, I just need a chance to prove it.

As usual, the Queen Megan does it again ! This book was just incredible and lived up to my expectations. The royals series by Megan is just what the doctor recommended!

I had a slight moment of confusion with this book because I got so excited and read so fast that I missed some key details and had to go back and to read some things again. I love the twists and turns of this book and getting the rest of the evermore people back together! I also really loved that this segment of evermore is a bit more mature. I can’t wait till the next book!

Wow, another stunning read from Megan, this latest installment in the series has all the twists and turns you want with the odd shocker thrown in!
So this one starts from the end of Wicked Vampire so it's no spoiler when I tell you that Greyson and Piper are soulmates but that is the problem because, when they admit it, the curse kicks in and Grey is a changed vampire. As Piper tries to track him down and find out what has happened she learns more about the world she has been thrown into as well as finding allies, who become friends. Also she starts to realise that she is strong and gains more confidence in her new powers.
I can't wait to see what happens next after that little conversation in Gray's cell!

Wicked Thirst

I am in love with “Wicked Thirst,” by Megan Montero. It was very well written and thought out. I love how in this book it picks right back up where “Wicked Vampire” left off. Piper is amazing and she has really grown since the beginning of series. She is an amazing and strong woman and I love how she is growing into her vampirism. Piper love for Grayson just might be the thing to save him or it could just be the end of him. I guess that you will have to read “Wicked Thirst” to find out what happens. I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

Wicked Thirst (The Royals: Vampire Court Book 3)

Wicked Thirst (The Royals: Vampire Court Book 3) As the curse’s grip tightens, Piper faces the daunting task of saving Grayson from his descent into darkness. Her journey is fraught with peril, but her unwavering love and determination shine through.

The narrative delves into the intricacies of vampire politics, revealing betrayals and forging unexpected alliances. Montero’s storytelling captivates, blending action, emotion, and magic in a tale that keeps readers on the edge of their seats. ~ I absolutely loved this book and this series!! ❤️🔥🖤

Wicked Thirst (Book 3) picks up right where we left off in Wicked Vampire. Well, mostly. First there is a "cut-scene" where we learn about the curse plaguing Grayson, and what a curse it is! Then we forward to where we did leave off. The action in this book keeps you on the edge of your seat, turning the next page to see what happens. Although there are several related storylines it never is confusing. They weave together well. Then the surprising twists and turns in each and the surprise ending. Anxiously awaiting the next book! I definitely recommend this book...and the series!

Such a great book! I devoured it because so many twists and turns I did not see coming! That cliffhanger! Ugh Meghan you are killing us! I do want to wait tell the final book drops in March 2025 but I will, impatiently. Such a great series with Grayson and Piper. They are my favorites so far but I highly recommend all of the Evermore series because they are that good. If you started with this series that is ok, you can always go back and read the Royal Witches and Warlock series without feeling like you missed to much. It just helps to know who is who and how they play a part here.

[June McKibben · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is a must read in the series. We get so many different pov that it gives magor back stories and information that we have been dying to know. I love the characters growth in this book and getting to see how challenges that are faced conquered. Piper has met up with our favorite witch queens and warlocks to save Grayson from the curse. Can't wait to have the next book and discover more of this beautiful story.

Interesting twist

So we now have the details of Grayson's curse and some other juicy titbits you won't suspect. Gray has succumbed, and you can't help but feel for Atlas and his vow. Piper has sought help from some familiar allies, but will it be enough? The last page, nay line, was a complete surprise, and I will no doubt drive myself crazy trying to puzzle it all out.

Wicked Thirst

Oh man. In this one we learn so much more about the curse, and other things about the past. It's fast paced and so hard to put down. It's a rollercoaster of emotions from beginning to end. Just when you think you have things figured out, nope not even close. Can't wait for the next one

[Julie Andrus · Rating 2 out of 5]

If you are going to write so many interconnected books and release them 1-1.5 years apart, you need to also include a summary of past book books and a list of characters. I spent most of the book trying to remember who people where and what happened in the past, but didn’t find it engaging enough to re-read all the other books.

[Johanna · Rating 4 out of 5]

too slow

Much better than book 2, but still too slow and repetitive. At least the revelations before the cliffhanger contained surprises. I will finish the series, but I don’t think I will read the other series by this author.
I originally planned to at least read the series about the witches.

[Brittany Middleton · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is just Fantastic!

Wicked Thirst is an amazing 3rd book in this series. All it does is leave you with an undying need for the next book. I have to know what happens next!

Fangtastic

Oh man, I think this is my favorite book in this series so far. So many things 🤯. Absolutely loving this series. I can’t wait to see what Halle s to Piper and Grayson and all of the side characters. Also, I absolutely love me some Atlas.

[Hayden · Rating 4 out of 5]

Megan continues to deliver wickedly devious additions to this world. I have so many questions about our heroine and her bestie that is currently being trained by favorite character from this world the ever terrifying Ophelia. I really want to know what powers and destiny Dice is preparing for.

This was a great book to explain much of the lore of the royal family of vampires. giving us point of view of Grayson’s mom and revealing family secrets such as she is actually the queen of the vampires and her husband doesnt remember her. Her son has lived his whole life thinking his father is his uncle.

Grayson is trapped within a terrible curse of love and is being told instructions by a mysterious voice. I wondered who might be controlling him to summon demons from but that reveal at the end had me shook.

I look forward to seeing even more of Piper’s powers as she learns just what she is. I have a feeling she is the vampire equivalent of a witch queen and boy is she about to change the entire world of the undead.
