Eve is a USA Today Bestselling Author with a specialty for steamy romance with strong female leads.
She lives in the UK, with her husband and five kids, so finding the time to write is short, but definitely sweet. Eve has a number of series, both completed and on the go and hopes to release some new and exciting projects, both paranormal and contemporary in the future, so stay tuned!
Not a romance the mmc are obsessed with raping the fmc on a regular basis. “Bad ass” fmc is basically expected to be a whore to accomplish her forced job or die. First chapter ends with the “love interests” aggressively raping fmc and bbs galore. ** page with tw on it doesn’t exist so completely went into this rapefest with no warning**
DNF It is dark but there was no TW with a rape warning. The MMCs get off on gang raping the FMC in a dark alley in the first chapter, and yeah it’s not the first time. Yeah, not for me.
Um. Wtf is this rape-y bs? Yikes. This could have been a lot better if the whole rape game thing was skipped. ..or a big ol' trigger warning was involved.
A perfect start to this series. It's dark, dangerous and downright delicious - check the TWs because this is not for the innocent. Ivy is Poison, Poison is Ivy and they are waltzing a fine line between the two. She's a shapeshifting unaliver who isn't scared of being who she is and showing what she wants and going after it. Her relationship with the guys is complicated (lol) and she enjoys their games just as much as they do - if not more - it settles a need she has inside herself that no one else can.
This is a dark story that has dark scenes so be prepared to have your white innocent wings darkened. 🖤
Bring on the next because I am salivating at the thought of book two
Oh my gosh! Ivy is such a bad butt shapeshifting assassin. She gets involved with The Syndicate while looking for answers into what happened to her parents. This also puts her in the sights of the Tate, Bram, and Torin. And the deeper she gets involved with them, the more she puts herself at risk. Failing to complete her assignment means forfeiting her life. And there is something more going on that none of them are aware of. Power plays are in motion but to what end?
If you love a story that has a sassy, stand-their-ground woman, and morally grey men that are obsessed with her... this is your book. Warning there is a cliffhanger at the end, but it just sets you up for the next book.
I got serious Mr & Mrs Smith vibes from this book! Only if that movie was set in the Supernatural World and the main characters weren't married.
Hold onto the seat of your pants folks because reading this book is very much a blink and you'll miss with everything packed into it. Assassins, Vampires, Fae, Warlocks, Shapeshifters......etc. Swoon my word did the men in this book definitely bring on the heat! Not only them but Vex ((fans herself)). We need (OK I needed) more from him.
What a naughty cliffy that was?? I'll be on tenterhooks now waiting anxiously for book 2.
When authors claim this, and then I read the book, I assume it's a load of BS. This book isn't terrible, but it's also not great. The dialogue is cringe, and the character ARCs are confusing at best. These dudes literally hate a version of her, and then BAM, in the next book, they're suddenly simps? The FMC also goes from being this aloof mega bad*ss on one page to flinching and jumping at sound the next. I love indie books. They are my favorite, but they still need the same effort as trad books to get them polished. This series needs a heavy edit.
Supernatural shifter assassin? Check Vampires? Check Dark Fae? Check Warlocks? Check, check and check! Add in dark societies with agendas and spicy scenes from the start and you’ve got a book that grips you to the very end. And what an end! That cliffhanger had me yelling ‘Nooooooooo’ out loud. A must read.
Ok, I think my heartbeat is back to normal now. That was like seriously intense, and not just the sexy stuff that was off the charts BTW...but the roller-coaster ride that just happened. Basically, just hang on to your hats, because you can't stop once you start
Only thing I don’t like is the s** scenes because of the degradation. I hate those words they use! It’s an ick. But I do like the storyline and did continue to read the series despite those parts. I’ve loved all Eve’s other series I’ve read in this world.
Give me a why choose dark paranormal romance with 2+ hot supernatural guys and hot bad@$$, take no crap fmc and I'm hooked.
Tate, Torin, and Bram.... (all hot names) These 3 broody, arrogant male characters are not only supernatural, but hot and powerful. I love that they take what they want, when they want, with no apologies.
Ivy, the bad@$$ shifter who is trying to attend Thornfield University, do her very best with her little career and survive the Thornfield Kings: Tate, Torin, and Bram.
Things get very interesting when Ivy's less than ideal bosses, The Syndicate, (because Ivy is actually working as an assassin) decide they want her to kill all 3 of her guys or else face the consequences. So does she fail the assignment and face the wrath of her bosses or does she leave and live her life on the run just to save Tate, Torin, and Bram.
Plus there's more to Ivy than what she or anyone else knows. She's always wanted to know more about her family and her past but no one has been able or willing to help her.
This book was so good. The spice was 10 out of 10. I couldn't get enough of Ivy with the guys. I also really enjoyed that while the guys had a bit of a bully side, they also really cared. A lot of dark why choose romances have the bullying, mean guy type plot but I really enjoyed Eve Newtons spin on it.
What a delicious sexy treat this book is! The book follows, Ivy, a shapeshifting assassin, who’s known as Poison. She catches the attention of the three kings of campus and soon their hookups become something more. But there is a lot of secrets and dueling agendas at play. Ivy is an assassin for The Syndicate but who really is the Syndicate? When Ivy finds out she runs leaving three sexy men determined to get her back. This story moves fast and packs a bunch of heat! It’s a must read for paranormal, why choose fans.
Oh that cliffhanger wasn’t nice. Ok let me start with This is a phenomenal start to this the series. Like wow Poison/Ivy I freaking love. Haven’t read too many shape shifter stories. Omg I loved it. Steam is off the charts. Darker storyline. Love the guys. But now Vex is an interesting character and I so want to know more about him. Overall I am so needing the next book. Amazing story. Definitely recommend over and over!!
This book is amazing and dark but a really good read, I particularly love the spin that Eve put on shapeshifters in this books. Ivy is a FMC that is really strong and the passion in her is really a magnet to her. This ending was a huge cliff which was not nice, but it was such a wonderful read, I loved meeting all of Ivy's guys and VEX, i need him to get his own story.
This is a Supernatural bully assassin book. Ivy is an assassin that goes by Poison. She is a shifter that can change her appearance. Tate Torin and Bram are the kings of Thornfield college and want to use and diacard her but when they discover who she really is things change. With a hit put out on them she must decide if she will complete the mission or follow her heart. With many mystery you will want to know more.
How to explain this book so you want to immediately download it and read?? I just can't put this book into words it is that good! Poison/Ivy is an amazing FMC. She hits you with all sorts of feels! You will LOVE her! The males in this book Tate, Torin, Bram, Ramsey, and even Vex...just wow! I just can't say enough about this book and NEED the next one! Eve, can you stop edging me and let me have my release with the next book Lol!?!?!
Loving this new series!! Was hooked from the beginning, Ivy is a badass and can hold her own and give those guys a run for their money! Those guys are delicious and the spice is top notch too! And hold onto your seat too because let’s not forget about our other favorite warlock, Vex too! The surprises keep on coming in this book! It’s a must read!
I’m definitely jumping into the next book immediately. I’m also extremely glad that I waited until the series was complete before I started it. I’m enjoying the plot and the characters, but I really hope that both more backstory and more development of the four main characters happens in this book.
When it comes to dark society I thought I knew it all. But man I was wrong. This book is action packed with assassins and vampires just to name a few. It was such a fun and addictive read. I can’t wait to find out what happens next. One thing for sure I will never assume I know the answer
I have yet to read anything by Eve that is not superb. I’m going to be late to work this morning because I just had to finish this! Highly recommend this if you like fast burn and a great story with mystery, smut and killer characters.
This book is amazing. I was captivated from the very beginning, but first as always before a person starts a dark book always read those trigger warnings. Your mental health matters.
Read my book review of Eve Newton’s Poison Ivy, book one in the Kings of Thornfield. This is a dark paranormal academia reverse harem romance with magic, Fae, Shapeshifters, Vampires, and Warlocks.
Are some brave women.. Fighters and deadly…Sexy shifters who are gifted and powerful beings.. They love just as hard too.. Vampire, Fae, Warlock sounds like a crude joke but they are her everything..
So this is WTF is going to g on kinda book. Like seriously who is the actual bad guy here. Well I guess I should say bad bad guy. Since they kinda all are…
