Fae Kings of Eden #4
Brutally Yours
Brutally Yours is a complete standalone that can be read on its own with no confusion or mission information. It does contain a spoiler for Viciously Yours but Viciously Yours does not have to be read to read this book.
Amos
Amos has spent his life under a brutal king who believes mercy is weakness and women are expendable. Beaten into submission and groomed to rule a tyrannical kingdom, the fae prince has only ever held onto one truth: one day, he will kill his father.
Priorities shift when a deathbed confession reveals that Amos has a twin sister hidden away in the Human Kingdom. Fate doesn’t wait for him to adjust to his new reality, and when Amos’ mate bond with Clover snaps into place, he has another person to protect. Realizing he can shield both his sister and mate by hiding Clover in the Human Kingdom, he convinces her to leave the fae lands under the false pretense of protecting his sister.
Amos’ lies continue to grow as he claims a false mate to appease his father and works with a rebel faction to eradicate the evil in their kingdom. But secrets never stay buried, and one surprise visit by his father unravels everything he’s worked hard to protect.
As Amos grows into something darker, more ruthless, and far more dangerous than the boy he once was, he’s forced to face the cost of the choices he made to protect the one person he loves the most.
Clover
After watching the horrific murder of her mother, Clover retreats into the safety of silence, knowing the Desert Kingdom is a place where women are owned, brutalized, and discarded. Raised in a small village, training alongside dragons and a rebel army, she is determined to make a place for herself and help bring down the monster ruling over them all.
When the Desert Prince appears, claiming they’re mates, she fears for the future she’s been working toward until Amos reveals shocking truths and asks her to protect a hidden princess in the Human Kingdom. Clover agrees, honored to be chosen and trusted with something so important, even if it means she can only know her mate through letters.
For years, their relationship builds through paper and ink, creating a bond that transcends fate. On the day Clover returns to the Desert Kingdom to take her place at his side, she watches as Amos claims another mate before the entire kingdom, humiliating and shattering her in the process.
Devastated and heartbroken, no explanation will repair what he’s broken, and she leaves the prince behind, cutting him out of her life. But years later, the boy who broke her is gone. In his place stands a ruthless king with blood on his hands and an obsession to get her back by any means possible.
Please note: Brutally Yours is darker than the other books in this world and has equal parts fantasy and romance plot.

Amos was TSTL, how is this man going to be king when he can't even understand simple concepts?
Not a fan of Clover either, she wasn't as badass as she was written to be.
the best relationship was between Amos and his cousin Rainer, their banter and brotherly relationship was very cute.
well that's the end of the series.
quite disappointing to end it with the 2 worst books. but I'm glad i got to enjoy the first two

Genre: Fantasy Romance
⭐️4/5
🌶3/5
Cliffhanger: No
Noteworthy: Book 4 in a series of interconnected standalones. Novella length. Content warnings provided. Available on KU.
This book was a full circle moment from book 1. I love that we got those missing pieces of Amelia's story. Very cool addition to the totality of the world. These characters are much harder than the the previous ones for obvious reasons. They come out of those sweet and innocent years like a train wreck. Definitely don't expect a soft romance. Even though Amos and Clover are clearly obsessed and dedicated to each other, they both had so much other stuff going on too. The plot is a little denser than the previous books and it draws you in and keeps your head on a swivel.
Book 2 will always be my favorite but this one is definitely 2nd for me.

I despise insta forgiveness. There needs to be some groveling….
June 14, 2026
I read book one (Viciously Yours) when it came out, but the reviews on the later books put me off continuing the series. I recently listened to the audiobook and saw that Amos’s book was released last month. This can be read as a standalone, but it overlaps with VY, so some parts will feel repetitive if you’re reading them in order.
The blurb (and previous books) set this up, Amos is the Desert Prince. His father is abusive and his mother tells him on her death bed that his 12-yr-old twin sister is hidden in the human world and it’s now his responsibility to keep her hidden. He finds Clover, his mate, and sends her to his sister to keep her safe.
I unlike most of my fellow reviewers was hoping for a little more drama generated from the “Amos claiming another mate” situation, but other than the one stomach dropping scene it is all a pretty drama-free situation. So, if that concerns you… you should be alright and still have double virgins. If you’re in it for drama-llama… change your expectations.
It made sense with his background, but Amos was much darker than what we saw in VY. Clover was pretty badass which was refreshing. She’s been raised to be part of a female underground rebellion that had dragons. I thought it was plot heavy and lighter on the smut which was fine with me.
Bottom Line- I liked it, but it was slow at times. It doesn’t perfectly flow with what we were given in the first book, especially with how Clover acted when her and Amos were reunited (Clover was furious at the end of VY and trying to leave him), but the author tried to make it fit. I thought she was going to have the timeline follow with that (meeting with Amelia and Clover being pissed) being the start of the reconciliation then everything happening after that point, but that’s how it shook out. Not a huge deal and probably not noticeable if you didn’t read them back-to-back like I did. It wasn’t a huge deal anyway because the reunion has almost instant forgiveness.

This was honestly what I expected it to be. The first two books in this series I’ve liked more, the third was my least favorite and this one was fine. I enjoyed getting to see book 1 in Amos point of view and how he felt about being separated from Amelia/ everything he had to go through. It made me enjoy the book so much more having read Amelia’s story. I saw the other reviews about being annoyed with the owd but i didn’t think it was that bad. Amos and clover only had eyes for each other and just were posssive. I also love how Jamie Applegate Hunter always writes an unhinged man. And he was pierced… okay! These books are seriously just fun vibes reads. They’re also so short. Highly recommend for a palate cleaner or mindless spicy standalone

This is an interconnected standalone (Book 4 in the Fae Kings of Eden series), and I loved every second of it. It pulled me right back into the world and gave me those connections to earlier characters that just make everything feel richer and more meaningful.
Amos and Clover are fated mates, but this isn’t a simple, easy journey to a crown. Their story is layered, emotional, and at times genuinely heartbreaking. I laughed, I teared up, and I got completely pulled into their push and pull. The banter? Absolutely top tier. And honestly… dragons? Always a win.
Clover is everything I want in a female main character. Strong, resilient, and unapologetically herself. A true baddie in the best way. Amos, on the other hand, is complex and driven, shaped by a brutal past but fiercely focused on what he wants for his kingdom. Watching him evolve was one of my favorite parts of the story.
The emotional tension between them builds in such a satisfying way, and that ending… it was exactly what I wanted. I’m not ready to say goodbye to this series at all.
Read this…thank me later. 😉
Thank you to Jamie Applegate Hunter for the opportunity to read this ARC and share my honest thoughts. This one is already out, and it’s absolutely worth picking up.

Sasha was my favorite character.
This went from refusing to communicate to primal play without a beat in the middle. Fast burn is fine, but I still need 'how did we get here' moment.
Overall, the series is appropriately marketed as vibes over plot. I enjoyed it. The first book is really the only one I remember the details of, and it's the best of the bunch.

Amos was… a disappointment. The Amos I saw in Viciously yours barely made an appearance here, in scenes taken from that book, just in Amos’s POV. Clover also was so very different from Amelia’s friend in Viciously yours. These were two completely different people. I understood Amos’s choices, but not why he decided not to tell Clover, especially when she had told him she had an issue with him withholding information, but he just kept doing it. He doesn’t consider Clover a true partner for pretty much all of the book, and then he just says he does at around 70-ish percent but has absolutely no opportunity to prove it. Hell, the author had to completely incapacitate him in order for him to let Clover do her thing!. And then it just ends. He never presented Clover as his mate to his kingdom. We just got an epilogue a long time later, when their daughter is 15, but nothing about all the turmoil they were expecting, nothing about any reactions the people might have had to Amos announcing the woman they’ve known as his mate for a long time is no longer in the picture, and now there’s another one and this is his true mate, for sure, he promises you. If I was his subject I would doubt every word coming out of his mouth, because he has been lying to them for forever. He has been “pretending” to be like his father, and that’s how his people see him, so when he does a complete 180, I would expect people to doubt it. But no, we get to see none of that! None. In the epilogue they just go to see the dragons, (because of course his daughter gets a dragon familiar, Amos is the special snowflake who didn't get one), and in a lazy attempt to emotionally manipulate the reader, her daughter’s familiar is his friend Sasha. His father’s familiar, who should have died with Philip but didn’t because plot reasons.
And I really don’t understand the nickname “The Brutal King”, because he didn’t really earn that. All the killing he did was in secrecy. Clover being “The Brutal Queen” does make sense, because she does some very brutal stuff in a very public way. But nobody calls her that. Anyway, it was easy to read and entertaining, and it did have some very good action scenes.

This series is so addicting! I have loved each couple and Clover and Amos are no exception! I was also excited to see some past characters come back for this book and interact with the MC's. I am a ride or die for these books and will always recommend them!

The feminine RAGE in this book was everythinggg! There are Fae, dragons, smut, banter, death, gore, heartbreak, and possessive love! Get you a man like Amos who will gift you the heart of a killer for you bc he did exactly that for his Mate Clover! Wish these books were longer bc they’re so good and want more of an epilogue!
***spoilers***
Started off really sad bc the desert kingdom does not allow women to rule… so when Queen Bianca gave birth to twins, she did whatever she could to save her daughter Amelia from being killed off and her son Amos from being corrupted by the kings brutality. Amos lost his mother and didn’t want to lose his mate and sister so he made sure Amelia stayed in the human realm and sent his mate Clover to protect her.
The miscommunication between the two was ahhhh! But the fact that they could feel each other when they’re in need makes me want to scream!
Overall I’m so glad that Amos avenged those hurt by the king and killed him.
But baby Marjorieeee!
“Dragons are maternal creatures, and Marjorie had lived in the den from the time she was born until the day she died. In the dragons’ eyes, they killed one of their young.”
This had me so choked up!

At this point, I could probably pick these up just to see what snarky dedication Jamie includes at the beginning… but let’s be real, I’m also here for these completely unhinged kings.
Amos is known as the Brutal King for killing his father, but honestly… the man had it coming. His father was vile, especially in the way he treated women, so it’s hard to feel anything but justified about it. Clover, on the other hand, comes from an underground rebellion and has been trained as a warrior her entire life. When she’s mated to Amos and sent away for her safety, their story kicks off in a way that feels a bit darker and more intense than the previous books.
Some thoughts:
- This one definitely leaned more into the plot compared to earlier books, but don’t worry, there is still plenty of spice.
- It’s noticeably darker than the others. While the earlier books had more of a chaotic, fun energy, this one tackles heavier themes like abuse, oppression, and violence against women.
- I loved that both Amos and Clover were equally unhinged. It made their dynamic feel balanced in a very chaotic way.
- As always, these books are meant to be fun, not overly serious. It’s a mix of plot and spice, though some books in the series definitely lean more one way than the other.
This wraps up the Fae Kings of Eden series, which is honestly a little bittersweet. While they’re interconnected standalones and you can read them individually, I’d still recommend reading in order to get the most out of the world and avoid spoilers.
Not my favorite in the series, but still a fun ride and a solid way to close things out.

Oh we finally are reading about the Desert King! But before Amos, was his evil father. And Amos promise to change the Desert Kingdom when the throne becomes his. He promises to kill his father and end his tyrannical rules once and for all.
What we also see is how the twins got divided (not a spoiler if you’re reading in order) and how they came back to eachother. And how Amos found his mate and had to keep her a secret from his father until he became king.
Amos made choices and many were mistakes. I understand he’s a kid getting abused under his tyrannical father but even as an adult, Amos is quite a weak character and didn’t do anything for me. It’s an idiot.
Clover is a badass FMC that lives with dragons. The smarter of the two.
Both were penpals for years
Hidden Identity
Fake Marriage
Who did it?
Both are Virgins till eachother
Fated Mates
This book is my least favorite of the series and a bit disappointing for me which makes me so sad because I’ve loved this series up until this one.

“Hello, Lucy,” Clover responded coolly. “I’m the new Desert Queen.” Amos pinched the bridge of his nose. For fuck’s sake.
Honestly, this book sucked major ass. I know that these books are described as “no plot, just romance”, but I’ve disagreed with that statement until this book. Almost nothing actually happened in this book, there was no real development of a relationship, there were so many smutty scenes but it was overshadowed by Clover being lowkey pathetic and just forgiving Amos over and over again when he fucked up. No groveling, redemption arc, etc. Just glossing over the fucked up-ness.
The only redeeming qualities of this book was the storyline around Sasha, Clover when she was unhinged af and jealous, and the ending. But I can’t in good conscience give this book a very high rating because legit the first 70-ish percent of the book, I wanted to light myself on fire and just had to power through to see where it went.
It also really bothered me that Clover was described as this badass but so many scenes she couldn’t overpowers or get out of the situations forced on her. But then was conveniently a badass when it counted.
There was just so little in this book that made you get into them as a couple + the whole cowboy fae aspect just made it weirder.
These two had so much potential and instead it flatlined for most of the book. What an abysmal ending to a series 😒

well, this might be my favorite book in the series, and it's all because of sasha (the best familiar, imo). i feel like i forgot all my icks after reading the epilogue (lol not really). that scene was just so heartwarming and bittersweet. please, i got a little teary-eyed too.
anyway, amos' actions didn't surprise me, especially knowing how unhinged some of the previous characters were. but i was literally cheering for clover when she went off to save the village. i loved how badass she was during that scene. and all of the rebels' demises, especially *that* couple (iykwim), were just so satisfying.
i'm also glad their story didn't feel repetitive. i mean, clover had to save amos this time around, which was a nice change. i also really enjoyed amos and rainer's banter. tbh, it made me wish we could get a book about him too. and also, are we still getting a next gen series? because i still have questions from the previous book!
reading this series has been so much fun, and i'm looking forward to the next (fingers crossed that there will be)!
well, this might be my favorite book in the series, and it's all because of sasha (the best familiar, imo). i feel like i forgot all my icks after reading the epilogue (lol not really). that scene was just so heartwarming and bittersweet. please, i got a little teary-eyed too.
anyway, amos' actions didn't surprise me, especially knowing how unhinged some of the previous characters were. but i was literally cheering for clover when she went off to save the village. i loved how badass she was during that scene. and all of the rebels' demises, especially *that* couple (iykwim), were just so satisfying.

I ADORED the epilogue of this book.
Just wish it was longer.
This one was definitely better than the previous book BUT the first two books were still the best in this series.
AND I'm so sad I've finished with them all BUT I will be reading any future books set in this world.
My FAV MMC is the mmc from the first book though, my love Rennick and Roman (second book MMC) comes VERY close to that too.

this was ok
i think i was the best book out of this series in terms of story telling and i really loved the love and relationship between amos and sasha. their love was so pure and withstood so much. it really was like a full circle moment for sasha to become amos daughters familiar and the book to end with the words "i love you too" after amos had said them 20 years ago to sasha after she had saved his life. that was the best part about this book. the storylines surrounding the main couple were so beautiful and i loved how feminist in a way this book was

I really need Goodreads to give me half stars.
This was better than book 3. I really liked Amos and Clover both as individuals and as a couple. But this still reads as a rough draft. It could have been so much more fleshed out. I understand the author’s intent is for these to be short and unserious reads but then she gave me the masterpiece that was Obsessively Yours so I know she CAN write.
I’ve accepted that book 2 was likely this authors best work and I’ll forever chase that high.
