Wicked King

by M.J. Penn

The witch books were the breadcrumbs leading me to my inevitable destiny as the Eternal Queen.

My mate and I escape into the fairy realm only to be attacked by vicious creatures and dark fairies. But these monsters prove to be the least of our worries.

My only mission is to free my biological mother from a magic fairy prison. But as I step through the ruins of the fairy cities, I meet allies who need my help to revive their realm and defeat the ruthless fairy King.

Refusing their plea will lead to their doom, but accepting will lead me to an impossible choice—kill the wicked fairy King or face eternal imprisonment.

I would rather risk everything for freedom and forge my own destiny than let the wicked King cage me and make me his Queen.

Fans of Jen L. Grey, Linsey Hall, and Elizabeth Briggs will love this angsty steamy paranormal romance series by M.J. Penn.

I really want to not give this four stars. That being said, I did have a hard time putting this book down. (The whole series really) Which is why I will keep it as a 4 star review instead of downgrading it.

I fell in love with some of the side characters that I am not sure what happened to. Which is why I want to rate it lower then four stars. I finished this book right before bed (I do not recommend doing this) and the loose ends kept me up.

Below this line maybe some spoilers. As I explain my frustration with the ending of this book.

What happened to Robert? Did he end up getting a happy ending? It sounded like him and Torin were super close and at the very end he wasn't mention at all.

Did Greyson ever make it to the fairy realm? Does he have a fated mate?

Who was Cordelia's fated mate? Did she not get one? I know she was against men...but even Layla had a fated mate.

Who was Hayden's true fated mate? (Do fairies not get them?)

Does this mean Seraphina does not have a fated mate as well? In the ending it did not describe her having children at all. It spoke of the library but what about the rest of the fairy realm in the epilogue did it get restored or at least in progress of being restored?

Just when you thought all of the fantasy character types were covered, here comes the fairies! Breanna is lead to the fairy realm to free her biological mother, but is attacked by the dark fairies and some scary creatures. But the worst is Hayden! I was rooting for him in book one, but now he is such a monster and it turns out that Torin is saving her! The emotional rollercoaster is a constant in this series but the ending is *chef’s kiss*, I was really impressed with this storyline.

Amazing! There’s so much that happens in this, it’s hard not to give away anything but I’ll say that this has been an amazing series. Everything from the earlier books comes together in this book and I was so happy with the ending. Loved it and will definitely recommend this series!

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. The fight is on with the Vampire Queen and freeing Torin. A fairy warrior amongst the midst who was tasked to get rid of Breanna as she was a threat...news to Breanna. The vampire queen talks of thr book of thoradis which would allow true immortality and those who wish it for selfish reason want to use it to take over all the realms. Breanna is now a prisoner in her own home by Hayden. He has become a monster and she will do everything she can to escape him. Torin, along with his brother Robert are on the run from Hayden with Breanna and now they must go into the fairy realm to rescue her birth mother. Who knew fairy could be so dark and dangerous? Breanna must retrieve the family asthame for Cordellia. The group meets the uprising fairies who are against the wicked Fairy King and they set off to free Willa. Things are not as they seem and the quest for power makes it everso dangerous. Will Breanna free Willa and keep her family safe or will she become a victim of Haydens thirst for power?
