Court of Lies and Deceit
A desperate mission takes Selena and her friends to the Unseelie Court. But making deals with the cunning fae of that realm is dangerous. When the Unseelie King forces them into a bargain in exchange for the help they so sorely need, they are pulled into a lethal scheme. To survive it, they must beat the Unseelie King at his own game.
However, their chances of making it out alive are slim when the deck is stacked against them and their own strained relationships are causing turmoil within the group. Winning would mean that they are one step closer to taking down the Iceheart Dynasty. But if they lose, it could mean the end of life as they know it.
Secret agendas, hidden truths, and complicated feelings push Selena and her friends to the breaking point. Can they survive this dangerous scheme, or will their ambition cost them everything?

3.5 stars, rounded up because I love this series, and this one feels like it’s setting the stage for an absolutely epic book 4. It was slow to start, but THE ENDING??? Draven continues to be the moment. This series is just such a good time from start to finish.

WHAT WAS THAT ENDING MISS MA'AM??? Blackwood really said "I'm going to make both my characters and my readers suffer mhm".
That was so unnecessary!!! We could've had a nice mini cliffhanger ending with but instead we got this. AAAA.
Speaking of, Selena why are you so . And I don't believe for a second that they couldn't have .
On a lighter note, in the first book we had the trials, so I didn't think we'd get something similar in the rest of the series, but lo and behold...here we have fairy games instead.
I wouldn't say it felt repetitive though, but I am mad they had to go through that final game because of everything that happened.
There was some relationship development for the side couples, and we got to learn more about emotion magic, while Selena got better at using hers. The writing improved also, and I enjoyed this one as much as the other two. But did it kinda feel like a filler book? Yeah. Still excited for the fourth one, but unfortunately I can't read it back to back with the rest of these because it's not out yet...

The ending broke me heart. That was horrible. I urge everyone to wait to read the third book until the fourth is out. Please I wish someone saved me from this. I’m doing you a favor

“You’d be surprised how easy it is to rewrite history. If enough people repeat the same thing, spreading it far and wide and for long enough, it eventually becomes fact. Regardless of how blatant the lie was when it began.”
I’m very conflicted with this book. On one hand, I enjoyed reading it and finished it in one sitting. On the other, I had so many issues with it.
For one, the pacing is way too fast, making the book feel messy and chaotic. This made it very binge-able, but also made it very anticlimactic and disappointing when every issue was created and solved in an instant. Too much content was shoved into this book in too little time. The writing is less than mediocre, but in a way that’s why I was able to binge it so fast.
The one thing that really saved it was how much I love the characters—all except Selena. At first I hated Draven, but I’ll admit, he’s really grown on me. The side characters who I once hated are now my favorite characters in the book.
The romance is cliché and cringe most of the time, so all that’s really keeping me here is the plot. Regardless, this series is very easy to read, I’ll give it that.

So freaking entertaining, the deals and games being played add so many twists and turns. Selena’s character development was something I really enjoyed seeing as well 🙂↕️

The book was not bad but comparing to other two this felt like a filler to me ......just the last chapter where she breaks the mate bond from draven's side with the anger take us back to the story where we started it with....but this whole great games and then extended games just for orion to join them was not even worth it tbh....and in the end they are still waiting for the help from dyrads...so then what was the point here...but again the only thing I liked here was the character development...especially selena's development as a character...even though she's still a people pleaser but she is more stronger now.....other than that I think we should have got some parts back in seelie court about what was going on while the group was here....ummm not disappointed I like the dynamics of the group but still....somewhere I expected more ig😬😬

Žinojau, kad pabaigoj bus blogai. Buvo.😭😭😭
Selenos augimas per 3 knygas puikus, šiol daly ji parodė daug ryškėjančios asmenybės, kuri buvo daug metų užspausta noro visiems įtikt. Ir ji man labai patiko.
Gal ir nėra super profesonaliai parašyta knyga su puikiu worldbuilding’u ir detalėm, bet visko tikrai užteko. + dalis buvo kinda filleris, bet reikalingas. Ir išdavysčių ir plotwistų ir besiformuojančio inner circle / found family. Kiekvienas side veikėjas įdomus ir iškankintas savaip, dėl ko gali tapatintis.
Man taip sužaidė emociškai, kad gale ir pyktis ir liūdesys aplankė ir … this is how villains are made.
Kai randi prasmę gyventi, svajoti, bet viską prarandi, kad pasiektum pergalę. Ar buvo verta?
Išsiaiškinsim su 4 knyga, kuri laukia spalio gale 😭😭
O kur dar bonus😭….

okay. So. Draven will always have my heart but this book actually enraged me so much. Like that was not necessary. First with the Isera incident and then with the ending. Like I just need the instructor to teach her how to undo it so that I don’t have to deal with the whole getting back together shit. I was really excited for this book, and I did like it, but I thought it was going to take a different path instead of more trials and games. I don’t know, I guess a lot of things just got me mad about this book. It was alright. 3/5 I will still be reading the next one for my sanity’s sake.

На данний момент це моя найулюбленіша частина циклу, яка отримала від мене заслужені 4 зірочки. Мені сподобалось як було прописано Двір Неблагих, і показано наскільки вони відрізняються (і при цьому багато в чому схожі) на Айсхартів. Король Оріон однозначно став причиною чому ця книжка стала цікавішою за попередню. Кліффенгер хоча і неоригінальний, але гарно прописаний.
Вдвічі цікаво було прочитати додатковий епілог з перспекиви Дрейвена.

A BRILLIANT 3rd book. We started off where we stopped last and the action/tension/anxiety was non stop.
I loved the ending, it was horrendously delicious and I can't wait for book 4 in October!

wowowowowow I genuinely love this series so much. Omg this book had me on the edge of my seat. In my last review of the second book, I mentioned that I wanted to see Selena’s powers grow and boy did we get that. Her powers have so much potential and I’m so glad we were able to see her utilize it. The mind is such a powerful tool to manipulate and I really like that Blackwood created a FMC with such a unique skill.
I liked that they had to do a sort of trials again. I always find that trope super interesting so I was glad to see it again. I liked the fact that they got to play as a team and build the found family connection with each other. The ending got me jaw dropped and everything though. I was shocked. First at the betrayal, then at the final use of Selena’s powers. LIKE NO LET SELENA AND DRAVEN BE HAPPY PLEASE. I fully read this all in one go with the exception of dinner. I genuinely cannot wait for the next book.

That ending??? WHAT! This series is so fast paced, I’m loving it. I love the connections between the characters, I love the world that is still developing, I love Selena finding her power instead of second guessing herself, and I love Draven Ryat. We get more games and trials in this one, some new scenery, and some interesting new information on the past and the future.
I do feel like this book was mainly to set up the next book but I was thoroughly entertained. Is this a masterpiece? Ehhh. Is this a fun time? YES

“There is no world, no universe, no version of reality where I wouldn’t have chosen you.”
Marion Blackwood…..you never fail to amaze me with your amazing storytelling. Court of Lies and Deceit is INCREDIBLE! If you’re a fan of fae, dragon shifters, romantasy and fae trials, I highly suggest stopping what you are doing and reading this series! *note: this book is the third in the Flame and Thorns series. It can not be read as a standalone!
Draven and Selena are everything to me! I have been waiting anxiously to read what came next in their story and I was not at all disappointed. They’ve been through so much together and to see their love grow is just beautiful. I love how strong and independent both characters are but they aren’t afraid to save each other in times of need.
The side characters in this book had me HOOKED. THE UNSEELIE KING AND ISERA….are you kidding me?!? The tension! The chemistry! Oh, I need them together immediately. I love the way each of the characters worked together to survive and to save their people! I am so excited to see where Marion takes Selena and Draven’s story next, especially after that heart wrenching cliffhanger!!!

Oh, it's getting good now, it's a shame really that the next book is not out yet. Selena is finally becoming interesting, the side characters make me curious about their point of view, the stakes are getting higher. I am glad I picked the series up. Waiting patiently for the next one. 🦇🔥
June 24, 2025
I was actually pretty excited for this book because the last one was phenomenal. But it just didn’t do it for me. While I love the fact that we got to see the Unseelie court, more trials (yay!), and even with deeper exploration into all the characters and relationships - it all felt very surface level. Definitely, a filler book setting up for the next one. Selena’s journey to overcoming her trauma and coming into her own was pretty anti climactic. The second set of trials was absolutely unnecessary and did nothing but provide barely explained fodder for the third book. I did LOVE all the magical exploration. It was cool to see the extent of everyone’s power especially emotion magic. Isera and Orion - I see it and I can’t wait to get more of them. She deserves every bit to be his queen. Lyra and Alistair are so cute too!! Draven and Selena fell really flat for me, but I’m here for the enemies(not really) to lovers back to actual (enemies lol). It’ll make for an interesting dynamic in the next book. All in all decent set up for the next one but nothing spectacular. Even with so much happening there wasn’t much going on.

I’m so invested in this series but the writing has gotten worse with each book. I did enjoy this one but skimmed through a lot of it. Will I read the 4th when it releases this month? Probably
December 14, 2025
What a bummer, I suddenly find myself completely bored and not interested in continuing the series. Not ideal when you have invested so much time in this, book three of a saga.
When you begin a Romantasy saga, you want the momentum to continue once the two main characters have finally fallen in love/lust. This book has my most hated troupe where they are 'fated mates', yet one of the couple hates the concept of 'fated mates'. Nonsense, how does that even make sense... it's nonsense.
This started the decline for me... I've persisted for the characters (whom I really enjoy) sadly, the momentum has slowed beyond repair.

Holy Smokes!!! I can't even...I mean, I'm not entirely sure where to start! First off, this book picks up right where book 2's cliffhanger left us. Thankfully, we don't have to wait long to know Selena's fate, but...and I mean it's a huge BUT...this just gets the proverbial ball rolling in this story! Second, I am absolutely feral for Draven! That man is just chef's kiss perfection, top tier book boyfriend material, and no one will be able to convince me otherwise. The way this man was willing to do ANYTHING for Selena was just amazing! Third, I loved, loved, loved the dynamic between Orion and Isera was absolute fire! Fourth, this book had such amazing banter between these characters at times I was laughing out loud. This book just absolutely took this series to another level. There was no dragging, no lagging, no boring sleepy moments. From the first chapter we have action, suspense, angst, drama and just wonderful tension and spice. I loved how this book just added another layer to this overarching plotline of this series. But be warned...the ending of this book will rip you to shreds. But I have faith that Marion will piece us back together again. Overall, do yourself a favor and read this series!

Meh
The whole book was one big competition with high stakes, but like we know they’re going to win whatever the stakes are or else there would be no book 4? This felt predictable. Like a filler book. Did the ending shock me? Yes. But did the other 98% of the book shock me? No. The FMC is just so unsure of herself. And I actually prefer the ice wielder Lysera over her. She is so interesting and confident and just has so much rage in her. Where Serena’s rage felt forced? Her magic becoming more unlocked wasn’t even that interesting because it took her almost the whole book to get there? Idk. Again. It gave filler book vibes. I liked book 1, loved book 2, and am feeling let down by book 3.
And as far as the MMC went, again, it felt like a watered down version of himself. Lots of threats he couldn’t back up. The group was outsmarted at every turn by Orion. They were too fallible.

I finished this book 3 days ago but have not felt mentally okay afterwards BECAUSE WHAT WAS THE ENDING MISS MARION?!?!?!? Anyways... I have finally rounded up my thoughts and I am ready to review this fucking criminal behaving book LOL (in the best way)
Listen..... this series literally has me in a chokehold. The plot twists literally have me falling out of my chair, the freaking tension has me giggling and kicking my feet like a school girl, and honestly if that didn't convince you to pick this series up let it be the fact that Draven, the mmc, is literally the epitome "will burn the entire world down to keep her safe".
Anyways, I will be staring at the wall until I can get my grabby hands on book 4.
4.25/5 stars

Stayed on business!!! Draven is the Shadow Daddy we asked for and Marion Blackwood delivered. I’m always dissecting as I read and was so presently surprised throughout this series! I love a good “Wait WHATTTTT????” moment! October 27th can’t come soon enough because that cliffhanger though!!!!!! 🤯🤯🤯

"Because I would have chosen you anyway. There is no world, no universe, no version of reality where I wouldn’t have chosen you. I would always. Choose. You."
This was such a good third instalment to the series and I loved that we got some more trials in this one!
But omfg.. That ending. I need book 4 immediately.
Ps. I am absolutely obsessed with Draven Ryat.
