Brutally Yours

Fae Kings of Eden #4

by Jamie Applegate Hunter

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.

About the author

I love writing unhinged fantasy romance, but I hate writing bios.

Any books posted on my goodreads shelves are books I loved! I judge a book by the vibes and emotions I felt when I finished.

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.

yk I've had pretty great luck in reading books with finished series or books that release the last books in the series soon (from the time I discovered them and read them) that this feeling I feel of so badly wanting to read unreleased books is sooooooo OVERWHELMING HELPPPPP 😭😭

[Gina Thomas · Rating 5 out of 5]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
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.

3.5⭐️
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

I despise insta forgiveness. There needs to be some groveling….

[Morgan McWethy · Rating 5 out of 5]

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!

[Mindy · Rating 3 out of 5]

⭐️⭐️⭐️ (3/5 stars)

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.

[Jeliza Torres · Rating 5 out of 5]

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!

[TheBookPlatypus · Rating 3 out of 5]

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

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.

3.5🌟

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.

Ahhh this was sooooo good! Absolutely loved it!! Jaime is a Queen! It has top tier banter, incredible characters, heartbreaking moments, and laugh out loud ones too! Every book in this series is brilliant! 10000 stars!!!

[romantasy girlie · Rating 5 out of 5]

Not even halfway through the book and I’ve cried twice, but that’s to be expected with any JAH book really. I love the emotional damage 😂

I am so obsessed with Amos, he’s unhinged but so romantic 😭 never thought I would think kidnapping is romantic but here we are. I also love how badass they made Clover, I thought she was really likeable and I found it very amusing how she disagreed and argued with literally everything Amos said and did lol Jamie has a way of making these stories feel light and fun and sometimes silly with how extreme and crazy they are, while also ripping your heart out and making you sob and also add sprinkles of empowerment in there and of course spicy spicy scenes. I especially liked the female empowerment theme in this book, it was really nice to read.

Also this story is blowing my mind - I hadn’t read Viciously Yours since it came out years ago, and it’s all sort of coming back to me and I forgot some details and am completely gobsmacked at the planning and foresight this author had for these stories!!! This is insane!!

I kind of want to re-read book one now alongside this one chronologically - can someone create a reading chapter map for me to follow please 🙏 💕

I really like the setting of this book, and although the artwork says it’s cowboys, it is not really in my head as a cowboy romantasy because I don’t like western themes or contemporary romance lol the main character just wears a wide brim hat a few time 😂 But there are dragons and the world building is as incredible as always and I ate this book up!

The romance is sweet, this is one of the few times I read Romantasy and have no problems with it not being enemies to lovers at first. I love the journey through time from when they’re children, like all of her standalones, and it is really heart wrenching to me that they’re separated lovers for so long and then going back and forth between hating each other, betrayals etc.

Love that it’s allies to lovers to enemies to lovers!!! Ahh tension is so good

FINALLY a Romantasy with a spit in her mouth kink, I literally never thought I’d find one lol thank you 🥵🥵🥵

This is the first time in the series where I was still hooked on the story even when the main characters got together 50% in. It waned a little bit but the dragons were such an interesting part of it for me, and had me ABSOLUTELY SOBBING at the very end!!!

I wouldn’t really change anything in this book, except for the twist at the end where Jennifer is the one behind the spy reveals, and Lucy is just there. I hated Lucy 😂 She reminded me of my own husband’s ex who always pined after him, and I was hoping she would be revealed as the spy and have a gruesome death. It also would have been nice for Clover’s instincts to be right, but she liked Jennifer at first and hated Lucy, so the twist didn’t feel satisfying to me. Jennifer was kind of cool, and the story of Paul thinking he could take over as king didn’t really make sense to me. Would he have been next in line somehow? Maybe if the story played up to him feeling like the king’s true son, but was kind of useless like Prince Charming in Shrek, where everything was for drama and theatrics rather than rational (like he could have killed Amos immediately when they knocked him unconscious but didn’t). Maybe since Paul always wanted what Amos had, if Amos had to pretend that Lucy was his lover for some reason and she felt scorned for not actually being wanted by him, so then Paul seduces her but they’re both just trying to be / be with Paul, that would have made a more understandable ending. Also when Jennifer said “ew no I don’t like Amos look at his face” - I was thinking the same as Amos, like what’s wrong with his face? 😂 that was so random.

But yeah other than the Jennifer and Lucy characters and how the twist played out in the very end, I ADORED this book and am rounding up to 5 stars because it was just so damn good!! This one and Obsessively Yours are deffo my faves, but they were all great and I have to say book 1 might even be the most memorable - I still think about it years later! :)

I’m so sad to see the end of this series! But I do love how full circle it was! Once again Jamie did it! Such a captivating book! Amos and Clover are beautiful. I loved the approach on a patriarchy society that treats women as objects and how Amos moved by his love towards his mother and mom, from a young age rebels against it.
Even tho it’s a romance there’s more to it than just two kids falling in love and discovering each other. They are also rebuilding a kingdom devastated by a male dominance.
Jamie is one of my favorite authors, I can’t wait for what she brings next!
P.s I love Sasha!
P.p.s Paul should have had it worse 🫢

[Amanda Lindgren · Rating 5 out of 5]

Brutal is the perfect name for this one.
A little darker than the first 3, in the most perfect ways.

Clover is fierce. A force to be reckoned with for sure. Finally getting her story was everything I wanted it to be.

Amos, is… brutal. Protective. Morally charcoal. The way he loves Clover. 🔥

The way they find each other, save each other, fight for each other, it’s beautiful. And of course brutal.

The ending.
Emotional devastation.
Then, revenge. 🖤

I’m a little sad that this is the last book in this series now that we have met all our Kings and their Queens. 🖤🖤🖤

Can’t wait to see what Jamie has in store for us next!!

Not bad, a bit underwhelming. I expected more from the Last Book in the series. The First one was the best.

2.75⭐️

Definitely my least fave couple in this series…tbh just wasn’t buying the love story in this one. Clover seemed to care less and Amos was super possessive just kinda gave nothing

[Tanisha Paul · Rating 5 out of 5]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (5 stars because I have no self-control)

“Clover wasn’t his other half—she was all of him. Every piece of him existed because of her, and he would spend the rest of his life ensuring she knew that.”

💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

Okay. We need to TALK about this book.

I am currently in my screaming, crying, throwing up era because WHAT was that ending??? Jamie Applegate Hunter really said “let me ruin you emotionally and then thank you for reading” because I am not okay. This was the fourth and final book in the series and GOD… what a perfect, mind-blowing conclusion. Everything just hit.

Let’s start with Amos.👑👑👑
Out of all the heroes in this series, he is hands down my favorite. This man has been through absolute hell. The amount of pain and torture he endured, I could absolutely feel it.
But what really made Amos stand out to me is his growth.
Yes, he’s possessive. Yes, he’s protective. But he doesn’t stay stuck there. He grows and learns and he owns up to his mistakes.
And most importantly,he treats Clover as his equal.
From the very beginning, he is in awe of her. He respects her strength, her skills, who she is as a person. This is a man who would literally put his woman on a pedestal and parade her around if he could. He worships her and would probably build a shrine in her name if he could (perhaps he will).
And despite everything he went through, the loneliness, the trauma, he still chose to be good. He held onto the one light in his life, Clover, and pulled himself out of that darkness. Now that was beautiful.
And alright fine. I still love his unhinged self alright? Like look what he said to someone who got too close to his wife 🤤:

“Since you like necklaces so much, I made you one out of rope. I’ll even help you put it on.
Stay the fuck away from my wife until then.”

Heeheehee.

Now CLOVER. 🥀🗡️

Listen… this may be Amos’s book, but Clover is the REAL hero here.
She is an absolute badass. Skilled, strong, selfless when it matters, and completely unstoppable when it comes to protecting the people she loves. I loved that this wasn’t a story where the MMC is constantly saving the FMC. They have each other’s backs. They are equals. They fight together.

Infact, Clover might even be more skilled than Amos. She is THAT girl.
Her growth, her resilience, everything about her just made me want to go feral. Amos, I get it. My bi self understands you completely. 🫣🫣

“Take this back to your leader and tell them the Brutal Queen is coming.”

Like…YES MA’AM.

Now the plot.

I wouldn’t say this is a super high-stakes, complex plot-heavy book, but it didn’t need to be. Everything flowed well, everything felt cohesive, and I was completely hooked. I literally finished this in a day.
The only part that dragged slightly for me was when Amos meets Amelia, mostly because we’ve already seen parts of that in earlier books. There was a bit of repetition there, but it didn’t take away from my overall experience.

The emotional scenes though??? CHEF’S KISS.

The moments between Amos and Clover, the familiars, the found family- everything felt so real and so well done. You really see that soft, vulnerable side of Amos, that lonely boy who just wanted someone on his side. And yet, he still becomes someone who will tear apart anyone who deserves it and be gentle with those who don’t.
The familiars carried this book through and through. Their scenes hit me where it hurts, every time. Infact, I would love to live in a woman only den with maternal dragons who burn men to a crisp. 🤞🤞

And the ending my lorddddddddd.
I was already holding back tears throughout the book, but the ending??? Nope, I lost that battle. The author had to push the final dagger through my chest :))

Now…let’s talk about the spice 👀🌶️

Because HELLO??? I really didn’t expect some of the filthy stuff we had in here but it was HOT. 🥵

We’ve got:
• pierced peen but the piercings are in her favorite colour 😮‍💨😮‍💨
• a spitting kink (I did not expect it, but I was not complaining)
• c*m necklaces 🫦
• and at one point, this man literally gifts her his peen jewelry 😭

Unhinged. But in the best way. 😌

And overall, Amos is just feral for Clover. Completely gone. The devotion, the intensity, the hunger??? Top tier. The other heroes were devoted, but something about Amos just hits different. Infact, their whole bond feels so beautiful when we know what each of them had to go through and what kind of environment they were brought up in.
Overall, this was an absolutely beautiful and fitting end to the series.

Jamie Applegate Hunter, you did your thing. Thank you for this experience. 💖✨💖✨

Brutally Yours is the 4th book in Jamie Applegate Hunter's Fae Kings of Eden series and tells the story of Amos and Clover. The series itself has interconnected characters and follows a timeline, but the author has written them so that readers can enjoy the stories as stand alone books. My recommendation is to read the whole series as it makes a lot more sense, but it isn't necessary.

Amos is the prince of the Desert Kingdom, whose father, the king, is an abusive and overall horrible person who believes that women are second class citizens at best, and expects everyone around him to believe the same. Amos grows up being abused and told that he is a disappointment, however he is able to take the pain and twist it into something that gives him strength but makes his morals a bit loose when it comes to what he believes is the right thing to do to protect those he cares about. Clover is a young woman who experienced a trauma at a young age which led her to be raised to be a fierce warrior who believes in protecting those who cannot protect themselves. She makes tough choices for the right reasons and is separated from both her mate and most of her family in order to protect someone important to Amos. This story follows Amos and Clover from the time they are children, although both were forced to grow up quickly for sad reasons.

If you have read the previous 3 books in the series, this story allows the reader to view the previous stories in a different perspective. I really enjoyed this book, especially how strong the female characters were. Everyone in this story has experienced trauma in some way, but instead of dwelling and allowing it to consume them, they fight. There is definitely spice in the story, however it is plot appropriate and not as graphic as it has been in previous stories of this series.

The author was able to keep me interested and engaged in the story from the beginning, with a complicated plot that was connected to the other 3 books in the series, however this story was definitely focused on the main characters and didn't come off as simply attempting to wrap up plot lines and fill in holes. I laughed at multiple points, had feels at others, but she didn't have me crying until the very last line of the book.

Overall, this was a great addition to the series and only makes me want more.

I received an ARC of this book from the author, however she did not require a review to receive the book.

[Hannah · Rating 5 out of 5]

This final installment in the series was everything I’d been waiting for since book one, honestly, it felt like chef’s kiss perfection.

Going in, I expected a spicy fantasy romance, and of course it absolutely delivers on that, I never had any doubts. The chemistry between Amos and Clover is intense from start to finish, and even when they’re apart, their connection never feels distant. There’s obviously a deep bond between them, but what makes it compelling is that they don’t always get it right. They’re young, under pressure, and constantly navigating situations bigger than themselves, and that tension makes their relationship feel real.

Clover is exactly the kind of heroine I love. She's powerful, capable, and it's completely earned. And Amos strikes such a satisfying balance between wanting to support her strength and still worrying about her in a way that feels genuine rather than overbearing, yet he's also totally unhinged and I love him for it...especially because Clover can totally match his freak.

One thing I really appreciated, is the pacing, this book is under 300 pages and moves quickly, but it never feels like it’s lacking. While the author has mentioned the series leans more toward romance and spice than heavy world-building, there’s actually a solid sense of the world throughout, it’s just delivered efficiently rather than in long, dense detail. Not every story needs 500+ pages to be immersive, and this proves it.

I read the entire book in one sitting because I genuinely couldn’t put it down. There were so many moments that had me internally yelling “what?!” and “no way!”, the kind of twists that keep you completely locked in.

I also adored getting a glimpse of my favourite couple of the series again, seeing a piece of their story from another point of view was really cool and I felt it fit together really smoothly.

And the familiars in the book do not disappoint, by now you know I love it when animals are featured in stories, especially when we know they have minds of their own.

And the epilogue? Absolutely perfect. It brought everything full circle in a way that genuinely got me emotional. This series has been such a ride, and I would return to this world in a heartbeat.

Read this in a short period of time. The timeline of this book occurred before book one and then near the end started to intertwine with book one. I loved how all four books in the series were connected together in a very strong way.

The story was different from the other three. Specifically, there was instant relationship and connection. Yes, there was drama, separation, and jealousy, with a unique plot; but it didn’t have the years and years of waiting. I didn’t mind that at all, having all four in a series follow the same relationship timeline would have been boring.

All others in this series I rated four or five stars. What I found missing from this book was a strong rationale for the separation of the MC’s. I get the MMC wanted someone watching his sister and later regretted his choice of sending his mate to watch his sister, but that didn’t make sense why he then picked a fake mate, Jenn. He felt bad for the violence perpetrated towards her, but was willing to take a chance at his father hurting Jenn? Yet, nothing bad happened to her. His father literally had zero issues with his mate. I didn’t get why he had to have a fake mate… this wasn’t well developed and was the root of the plot and relationship between to the MFC and MMC.

The MMC was also quite dumb. He literally couldn’t comprehend how his actions impacted others until he was told. He was a hypocrite and didn’t get much. The MFC had to repeatedly tell him what he was doing was unthoughtful and not ok. He was not the first MMC in this series that couldn’t pick up on some of the obvious things happening…

I appreciated the banter between the MC’s and she fought back. Most characters in this book were forgiving of mistakes, which I also didn’t mind. They had anger as well as empathy and compassion. I loved the darker themes of this one. I also loved the MMC’s being all tough guys and the women calling them out.
