2.5 stars.
One moment my romantic, teenage self swoons over Edward Cullen's "the lamb falling in love with the lion" 🤩 little speech, the next my disoriented mind wakes up to this... 👹👉🏻👌🏻wtfuckery of epic proportions debauchery in its prime:
I admit, in the heat of the moment I thought that Minette (h) is in the middle of the crime scene,
but then she proceeds to call it a "dream" instead, slowly rubbing the thought of how wet her cunt gets from merely watching the necrophiliac show that the hero had put on for her in my already damaged conscience, so I kid you not. The scene turned my perception of reality on its axis:D
My bad. I dived into this book with my silly human misconceptions still intact. Now I'm a newborn. A resurrect. A reimagined reader 🤡 fully capable of comprehending that there's no such thing as a crime scene in a historical setting of
Dark Vampire Erotica.
Only lust for sex and murder with no police in sight. 🤞🏻😔 This subgenre makes fucking corpses sound hot. Don't judge. By human standards, that is.
Anyway, I'm so atrociously desensitized to any type of shit I stumble upon in books, it's not even funny anymore.
In other words, I wish I ended up half as angry and scandalized as I had planned to. Jesus laughed.
But first let me extensively elaborate on this story's
T R I G G E R _W A R N I N G:
since I'm not a vampire, not even a half-blood, 🥺😔 I'll allow myself to apply some basic human terms to what essentially happens in this book
— rape
(the h was raped by her previous masters and shared amongst their friends (mentioned in passing); raped by the hero when resurrected + whether the whole relationship between them can even be considered consensual or not is up for debate since they're in a master vs slave dynamic throughout the book)
— abuse
(the h underwent beating and torture from her previous masters — mentioned in passing; beating from the hero when he's in his dark fiend mode 🌚)
— the hero is bisexual so there are MM and MMF scenes
— murder
— cheating
(— the hero fucks multiple OW and OM at any given time; in a heartbeat; with great pleasure
— the heroine fucks the H's male lover/friend (with the hero's explicit approval))
— necrophilia, voyeurism
— sharing (the H shares the h with a few male purebloods at a party, and further in the story proceeds to share her with his male lover/friend a few times)
— orgies, threesomes (H×F×h, H×M×h, H×h×M×M×M, etc)
It's not an exaggeration to say that this book is definitely not my usual scene, even though I harbor a particular fondness for dark romance:
I'm mostly indifferent to fantasy books. I prefer romance to erotica (sex overload bores me until I say otherwise). I don't like reading books that contain detailed scenes where main characters fuck other people. Unlike imagination, cheating should have its limits. Sharing is overrated. Rape by OM is my most hated trope. BUT WHERE'S THE FUN IN NEVER LEAVING ONE'S COMFORT ZONE? 😈
So, The Reimagining of a Blood Slave.
I love how brief, truthful and on point ( I understand that now when I'm done with it) the blurb of this book is:
The erotic tale of a submissive. This novel isn't recommended for readers with triggers.
It screams 'ain't no time to explain shit. zero fucks given. you wanna know what happens? read the book, and figure it out yourself. otherwise, fuck youz sideways'.
I can respect that.
THE PLOT. SPOILERS
This book tells the story of Minette (h), a disenfranchised half-blood witch-thrall with a dark past marked by abuse that she had suffered at the hands of her previous masters, and Seville (H), her new pureblood Master.
🕸️ 🛐Minette🛐 has been a thrall for many centuries. As someone who harbors a physical aversion to touch and has unconventional looks — black skin, red hair and wolf eyes, Minette's reputation is kinda ruined and she remains unclaimed for a long time. Now when she gets a chance to serve a pureblood vampire, the vampire equivalent of Kim Chen In, she does everything in her power to cater to her Master's needs and ensure he never sends her back to the Order.
In the meantime, she gives birth, climbs the career ladder and discovers her true self.
Or, to put it poetically, finds the true love of her life and undergoes the "reimagining". Why wouldn't she? Being forced into orgies and tossed into the circle of deceitful promises, cheating, betrayal, murder and constant rivalry among women over one man's attention could have ended her in a state worse than the "reimagining".
The changes in Minette's personality are slow (they don't happen overnight) and subtle, yet very tangible. Which is impressive by itself, considering that the loyal, submissive core of hers remains untouched: in the past she was deeply brainwashed and conditioned to be a slave with no self-worth. So it comes as no surprise that till the end of the story she remains loyal and accepting of Seville no matter which circle of hell or layer of mud he drags her through.
🕸️ 🪦Seville🪦 is a pureblood master to a household full of men and women: his numerous maids, thralls, mistresses and wife, all infallibly starved for his attention and competing for the favor.
But don't get intimidated by the sheer number of his cock's zealous fans: math ain't gonna mean shit when the guy has a heart as generous and big as that of Seville. He puts a really low price on his attention and bestows it freely: no discrimination on the basis of sex, color, political beliefs, social and marital status.
There's no escaping his cock: whether you're dead or alive doesn't matter. This man will fuck you. 👺 If you can name more than five people by their name, his relatives aside, whom he didn't fuck at one point in the book, you're lying and shall never speak to me again.
Seville finding a reasonable and long-term solution to any emerging problem?
Fucking that problem?
The animosity amongst your harem? Fuck them. Your favorite thrall gets jealous?? Fuck her. Your current wife wants to divorce you? Fuck her. Someone is angry? Fuck them. Sad? Fuck them sideways.
Not entirely sure how his cock didn't fall off doing all of that charity work for the whole vampire community. A literal balm to healing pussies. A helping hand extended to any afflicted butthole out therepersonified cockinified.
Selfish, egotistical, conceited, self-indulgent. A lying little bitch that will sweet-talk you only to stab you in the back a few seconds later. He stays true to his disgusting self till the last dying breath he never takes.
Seville in a good mood: I love you, my sweet Minette. You are the one true love of my life. I will murder for you. I will die for you. 😘
Seville in a foul mood: “We cannot pretend that Minette is suitable for a good marriage. She has had more men than the tip of my sword." 😇
SAYS WHO? 🤣 YOU CHEAP RAGGEDY COMMUNAL PUTA.
Seville makes a promise to Minette: I will never let any other man touch you. Not gonna share you with anyone, my sweet.
Seville a few days later: “Go around the table, Minette. Suck them all.” 🗿
Seville talking to Minette: I don't need anyone else. There's no one else but you for me. 🤞🏻
Seville once she turns her back on him: throws an orgy at his home, sleeps through the ranks of his house thralls and maids, fucks a random whore's mouth on the way to the house where Minette and their children are stationed, brings his mistress and wife to their first social outing as a betrothed couple 🤩
The guy can read minds, but what's the point when the only functioning part of his body is his cock with a busy schedule?
MY SCATTERED THOUGHTS WITH A TOUCH OF CRITICISM
🕷️ This story was a bit hard for me to get into, which I attribute to some writing issues.
➣ typos (e.g. heir instead of air, misplaced apostrophes or lack thereof)
➣ HOLD YOUR HORSES. 🤣
I appreciate the poetic quality of writing most of times but some comparisons were quite honestly ridiculous and forced, giving rise to contrary effects (comical instead of deep and meaningful) and deflecting my focus from the story.
THE VISUAL I NEVER KNEW I NEEDED. 🤣
Sis, comparing genitals to anything childlike is a peak cringe, I thought it's common knowledge. Awkward wording was so distracting. Otherwise, the further in the story I was submerged, the more smoothly it flowed.
➣ the text endeavored to sound authentic and different in the sense that the author resorted to lots of fancy and archaic words (like thrall, bedchamber, etc) as well as flowery dialogues (that I often come across in historical fiction), so it threw me off when Minette said something along those lines:
EXCUSED TO KISS MY ASS? 🤣
MAKE UP YOUR MIND. Is this chick an honorable member of Gen Z or a medieval period gal. There was some waffling going on here.
Unfortunately, the inconsistencies in writing style stood out way too much.
🕷️ The weird thing about this book is that none of the unhinged debauchery touched me on an emotional level. It was the most accidental pieces and parts that had me annoyed and shaking in my boots.
Maybe my general indifference to the hero's infidelity (glorified and flung at me alongside the heroine's jealousy. WAS I ASKING FOR IT? MAYBE. NO ONE HELD ME AT GUNPOINT SAYING I HAVE TO FINISH THIS NO MATTER WHAT) stemmed from the fact that every despicable part of the hero's behavior made perfect sense in the context of his character arc and this world.
Still the author succeeded in finding subtle ways to hand me my ass on multiple occasions and rub unbelievably annoying shit right in my face. 🤣 Good job, sis. Think you're cool, huh??? 👺👺👺
My face when I read about Seville fucking yet another woman when both Minette and he are already supposedly head over heels with each other:
Me when Seville calls Minette by another woman's name in bed:
This little shite Seville knows his way around words, one moment I watch calmly his lying, promiscuous antics, the next he opens his big fucking mouth and spews so much bullshit and lies that I want him strangled and resurrected, strangled and resurrected, STRANGLED AND RESURRECTED. Go ahead, report this review for violence. 👺
It baffles me that the author didn't even dream of adding some OM drama to balance out Seville's incessant cheating on her. The guy I was rooting for (his chemistry with Minette was a chef's kiss) turns out Seville's old lover and dear friend whom he has gladly invited to their "marital" bed for a threesome??? 🤡 Good soup.
Another somewhat random aspect that annoyed me to no end was how Minette treats Seville's other "subjects". They are all infallibly stupid, annoying, lazy, slutty, insolent and undeserving of their godlike Master in her eyes. Almost all the women in this story are portrayed in that unsophisticated way — aggressive with other women, primitive, lustful and intensely jealous —which is partly justifiable by the patriarchal nature of this world, partly exasperating and partly not that annoying despite many female characters being depicted in "black" absolutes.
The contrast between Minette's servile, swarmy act with Serville and merciless slaps she hands left and right to his maids and kitchen staff made her look nasty and sort of pathetic in my eyes, especially once I realized she never quite finds her self-worth on the journey of "reimagining", prioritizing till the very end Seville's feelings and desires (to fuck whoever and however he wants) over her own ones ("misplaced" jealousy, pain). There's only so much forgiveness and patience one may take, with or without good reason.
Also, I have to mention that even the revelation of Minette's highborn origins, obvious personal growth, new opportunities as well as the luxury of awakened witch powers — meaning a shift in their power dynamic — don't change that. She still chooses to forgive him and act like a pathetic ragdoll with no good excuse anymore. The foundations for a more satisfying and fulfilling storyline were laid but never came into full force.
🕷️ At the 15% mark (most likely mentioned even earlier, but I consciously took notice only at that point) Seville already looks at Minette with "love" in his eyes. We have to take his and her words for it.
How did he come to love her? How did she come to love him?? The history book left that one tiny detail out.
I think the author wanted to pass it off as an intrinsically vampire thing, but since I'm not a vampire, their soulmate connection left me wondering. How did it happen? When?? And most importantly, why???
Minette is said to have been averse to foreign touch for centuries (due to traumatizing experiences), but within a first dozen pages (during their first meeting ever) not only does she get fucked by Seville, but she already craves and enjoys his touch. 🙄
According to Seville's words, he has been in love multiple times, yet somehow we're meant to fall for his "you're my one and true" crap.
I swear he makes a promise only to break it. He never keeps it. Not to his first wife (he promised to never marry again 🤡). Not to his mistresses. Not to Minette. Never to Minette. 🤣 Except for that one big promise that takes him centuries to fulfill. But make no mistake about his motivation, there is not even a tiny noble part mildly kicking and screaming inside this guy. He sees through to that one promise because of his selfish nature and inability to function without this particular woman. Only self-love, no offense. 😌
🕷️ The author put effort into portraying the shameless bacchanal that the main characters bask in as something perfectly normal, acceptable and even casual in vampire society. It was mentioned more than once that such feelings as jealousy and mercy are beneath vampires. Yet these two were the key driving force behind the story's progression. On the one side, it added a slight touch of taboo to everything that happened on-page. On the other side, considering how minuscule Minette's human part was, it made no sense for her (or anyone else) to be that jealous or merciful, especially near the end. Despite how vampires regard human emotions as lowlife and unworthy of their race, even Seville displays them on multiple occasions (mostly, jealousy; he actually regrets sharing Minette with those three purebloods). This made the story very "mankindly". I'm not sure whether it was the author's intention or an occasional disregard for credibility.
So, the hints were dropped that the nature of love between Seville and Minette can't be explained in simple human terms. It's some sort of inexplicable connection formed at first sight. But at the same time, their love sounds reminiscent of a typical toxic relationship between an unapologetic manwhore and an impulsive serial liar + a codependent, insecure and perpetually jealous woman that simply can't walk away. Very convenient. 🤣🤡
I think what hindered me from enjoying this story more was that I never bought the love story. For Minette, this love is restricting and suffocating. Ultimately, all the development and growth she has undergone is in vain since she's stuck with a man who will always stay the same slimy bastard from the very beginning — feeding off her pain, love and jealousy. All his words of love, nice gestures and preferential treatment pale in front of blatant disregard for her pain and jealousy. But if the happiness of acquiring a communal toilet outweighs the bitter and nasty feeling of always sharing it with multiple others for her, who am I to judge?
Did my heart broke for them? No. I liked the ending tho, Minette got her wish. 🤣
CONCLUSION
A very entertaining and shameless read with a good pace and flow. Didn't change my life or worldview, a perfect example of fun while it lasted.
I'd definitely recommend it if you're a fan of this subgenre. And if you're new to vampire erotica, mind the triggers and ramifications of the subgenre as there's lots of sex, violence and infidelity/polygamy.
One moment my romantic, teenage self swoons over Edward Cullen's "the lamb falling in love with the lion" 🤩 little speech, the next my disoriented mind wakes up to this... 👹👉🏻👌🏻
My own cunt is aching and squeezing in on itself as if I am the one getting fucked and not the dead lady underneath him. He waves me over.
“Come, Minette.”
I am in a dream...
I admit, in the heat of the moment I thought that Minette (h) is in the middle of the crime scene,
but then she proceeds to call it a "dream" instead, slowly rubbing the thought of how wet her cunt gets from merely watching the necrophiliac show that the hero had put on for her in my already damaged conscience, so I kid you not. The scene turned my perception of reality on its axis:D

June 6, 2022
I was wholly consumed. One day I'll write the review this book deserves 🖤 I went into this expecting vampire erotica, but instead was surprised with an epic gothic horror and romance. The author was inspired while she wrote this book, this is the type of indie hidden gem I love to discover. Nothing like this can be found in mainstream published fiction. It's transgressive and breaks almost every romance trope and rule. The author was brave to write and publish this story. She deserves to be commended because she exceeded in execution. Did I notice a couple of typos? Sure, but I would not dare take off a star for something so minor. Readers beware: Almost every trigger is in this book. The MMC has a harem of women. There is infidelity, cheating, betrayal, and lies. It completely worked in the world the author created ~ a world full of lust, death, and violence:
There is so much more to say. Days after finishing I'm still feeling stunned & gutted. I'm not sure how to collect my thoughts.
I know that what we are goes against every preconceived notion that mankind has about love. What we find erotic is what they fear the most. Blood. Lust. Death. At the same time preferably. And a smoldering passion that ignites at the simple thought of one another. Women want the fairytale. I want the madness. I want Seville.
There is so much more to say. Days after finishing I'm still feeling stunned & gutted. I'm not sure how to collect my thoughts.

This is a sensational romance, a tale of a societal vampire race and witches. Vampire "Lords" are a deity, the pureblood is above the food chain and lives for thousands of years, they can also do some unique magic and their sexual drive is infinity. There are no crucifixes, holy water or fear for garlic nor the sun is an issue, I think there is no weak spots unless he is in taboo love. Then comes the half-bloods (beings resulted from pureblood and non-pureblood mating), witches and thralls (the pureblood bastards) also known as "mutt".
Seville st.John is a sexy beast, an older blueblood with commanded greater powers like magic and boost speed. He has a wife, a soulmate, a mistress, a harem of sex slaves and Minette. He has no impulse control, he is a breaker of promises and you'll have a huge ball of contempt against him throughout the whole book. Seville st.John is a selfish vampire with stubborn greed.
When he brings Minette, a thrall who is also a daughter of a thrall (part human part witch) adding to his ever growing harem, he finds a being (mind you all the women are his fuck toys) who is obsessed and obedient to a greater extend. Minette trembles in gratitude when she was chosen after over five hundred years to serve a pureblood, she would touch her forehead to his shoes and kiss it too.
A pureblood owns thralls and mistress, they are chosen from Order (an whore house for thralls), when a thrall outlives its Master he/she is returned to the Order until another pureblood chooses a thrall. After Minette's previous Master dies she is returned to the Order and wasn't chosen because of her dark skin colour and imaginary ugliness. After waiting for over five hundred years Minette is chosen, she is faithful, loyal and broken. Seville crosses all boundaries with Minette. Her obedience, efficiency and preciseness attracts Seville but he has ulterior motives for bringing her here. Minette has been used and abused her whole life. She was so robotic at the beginning, her aim in life is to please the master. She falls in love with a man who is used to getting what he wants.
Seville's wants for men and women are extreme, his selfishness, callousness and broken promises is everything, he is immoral and he loves Minnette but he loves fucking (anyone) too. Would I call Minette doormat for forgiving Seville everytime, no. But I am crazy mad when she forgives Seville every time. Though the sacrifice Seville makes at the end redeems him in many ways.
I like that this story doesn't stay stuck at a scene, I felt it has more to give, like it cannot wait for the next scene to show. I don't mean it's fast-paced or incomplete but more like a thriller which makes me awed especially about Seville's absurdity to do whatever he wants without any remorse.
Seville is kind to his wife, his mistress and his soulmate, he takes care of them. Most parts of the book shows his women fighting amongst each other for his attention and he breaks the fight but fucking one of them.
The story is set in historical time period and is gothicity themed. I cannot marvel enough how perfectly the story hit my reading cravings.
Triggers: hero slaps women, cheating (not exactly cheating since the timeline of this society makes it common for purebloods to have women/men), graphic details of abuse, sex scenes depraved.

RTC!
The Reimagining of a Blood Slave features a vampire and witch pairing in a master-slave relationship. Um yes. Sign me up!
Two things you must know going into this story that feels like a bodice ripper in terms of storyline and historical erotica in terms of content.
1. St. John is what a vampire would be like.
Remember when Angel loses his soul? That's St. John when he turns into Fiend mode. And he turns into this often.
2. This is also what having a harem would be like.
I'm trying to move away from the term "harem" but essentially, the idea of one man having access to multiple women, but it's not exactly polygamy because that implies a more consensual relationship between all partners. This is one man, or should I say, vampire, with his household of women, and if choice was up to them, they would be the only love interest in this vampire's life. They resign themselves to it because they need him so much. Which just makes me want to barf to type this sentence out :')
3. Because why not. Why does every vampire-witch romance with a tragic happy ending have to involve reincarnation?
On the plus side, it challenges my ideas of a conventional happy ending but on the other hand, GIVE ME THE SICKLY SWEET HAPPY ENDING AND HE WHO GIVES GOOD GROVEL. Well, at least the author does prepare you for an unconventional ending when the hero and heroine both start spouting speeches about finding each other in another lifetime.
The Reimagining of a Blood Slave is entertaining. Even if there are some things that I don't like, this was a highly inventive story that I'm glad I've read. My favourite parts are the beginning and the end. When Minette first becomes a thrall to St. John and wants to be the best thrall that she can be, whipping his household into shape, and St. John is very gentle with her because he wants her love, after she has suffered so much trauma and abuse from her previous Masters. The end because, oh my gosh wow. There were some revelations but the ending - whew!
But let's go back to St. John's cheating ways. I really do not stan. I was ok with his sleeping around in the beginning because Minette wasn't in love with him but later on when she does love him, I felt so frustrated. Minette has one moment of standing up for herself among countless moments of backsliding.
Group activities. Necrophilia. Is it weird that for me I was most disgusted when St. John started to tell Minette he wouldn't sleep with anyone else when he was with her and Minette found out he was lying?
Minette, at first, felt like she didn't have the right to be jealous, and then when she realizes she is, she tries to compartmentalize and make the best of a shitty situation. She has her own space, can pretend she only has St. John to herself. This gets ruined when he, on different occasions, shows up with women in tow. I hated the drama, and I hated seeing St. John spend time with the other women when he was Minette. I wished Minette left his ass and made him grovel.
St. John frustrated me because he would say/do the right things to Minette's face but behind her back, out of sight, same old, same old. And yes, he has his fiend side yadda yadda but also she notices that he does pillow talk with them and he certainly has affections for them that are not just sexual. Dharma is his life mate, and she's the sex thrall he uses when he is in "dark" mode!
And then the ending. Well, it was mouth-dropping but also I can't believe that happens to Minette! I feel like she got punished when St. John should have been the one to pay penance. I believe it's implied that that is his penance, and searching for his love is his penance, but I would have liked something a little more akin to what Minette had to deal with. 😈

A "love" story between a pure blood vampire and his thrall. Their relationship was toxic. The MMC was cruel and selfish, the FMC very submissive and brain washed, but it worked for me and I loved it. If vampires existed, they'll be like those!
BTW the hero has an harem so speaking about cheating would be an understatement!

The title, and this amazing cover ... doesn't really match the innards of this story.
It leads you to believe you are in for something so much darker. I felt a little set up.
This is my first time reading something by this author. She? has an interesting writing style. I had to get used to it as I read more and more of the story. I am not sure if this choice of storytelling allowed for the story to shine to it's potential though. It got the story told. But I still felt that, the story could have shone brighter with some alterations in the way it was weaved and the perspective it was told in.
I did not read the blurb before jumping in. The cover drew me, I admit it.
It begins with the story of a thrall entering her new master's home. I've read other stories with thralls as characters, so this helped me not be so lost. I understood the thrall's mannerisms and reasons behind it more.
Our thrall, as we are introduced to her, reminds me of the lineage of a moor (like from Shakespeare's Othello).
________________________
I am the spawn of a peasant mother who was part human and mostly witch and a pureblood father of unknown origin. Her bloodline made me a peasant.
________________________
This is our only hint of who she is. She has darker skin that is not as common among those who surround themselves around the... "purebloods". Let's just call them vampires to save time.
This isn't her first master, no. But Master Seville St. John will soon become her nicest master (and that's not saying much from what we learn of her past). As nice as he is capable of being, anyway. His reputation sometimes supersedes him as evidenced by some of the pitying looks when they learn of who her master is when they meet her.
As the dynamics between thrall and master start to .. collide and grow, it reminded me of another book I read: Thrall by Catherine Miller If you want a softer intro to thralls, I highly suggest this book. Was very sweet.
I enjoyed the growth with the heroine. I think it was drawn out at the perfect speed. The Hero...well, that's another matter. I'm still unsure about how I feel with that one. My feelings probably coincided with the heroine's ... up and down, want to hate him, want to love him .. want to slap him. In fact, seems like this guy gets slapped quite a lot.

With the rise of Reverse Harem (RH) books, it took me a bit by surprise that this book...was about an actual harem. But then again, if you're reading this far already .. you already feel the historical-ish tone of which this takes place ... so a harem would make sense.
The good and the bad that happens throughout the book coincides with the times, the issues of aristocracy, politics, bloodlines and so forth. The good and bad that happens between the h and H also coincide with the times...and with a man who has a harem.
The longer the story went on, I felt like I was watching a historical mini series that got intermingled with a telenovela. Certain parts seem to drag.. while other parts seem a bit too fast moving. It was strange.
I was on the verge of giving this book a 3.5 star until I read the ending. The ending bumped this story up to a *4.5 star*. It was a great conclusion to something that felt like... was almost a little too much.
The concept of the story was good. Perhaps if it was broken up? maybe into a duet? I don't know. Just something about the fast moving parts .. that left me a little unconnected.
I rank this book *grey...maybe even light grey* on my darkness scale, especially considering it's a vampire read and not a contemporary one like I thought (so some of the killings ... we're kind of a given, and not a surprise).
I am still a little irked that the cover fooled me into thinking it was darker. But that's neither here nor there. Was I also the only one who thought it strange that our heroine kept referring to the H as "the pureblood"?

simply sensational
Let me start by saying f that i did infact love the book. There is nothing that i love more than a good dark, dubious consent, skirting the line of extra fuckin wrong book. The story alone deserves five stars.
We have our heroine and the villain. Well there are several villains in this story so let me backtrack. Our heroine is a female slave from “The Order”. Different slaves perform different tasks. Ultimately its up to the slaves master to decide which task the slaves perform. The tasks can be anything and i mean literally anything, some things could even lead to death
Our heroine unfortunately is a slave and apparently a slave pf the lowest kind. Her peculiar looks make her an outcast like quasimoto. She has had several masters and some have left a permanent cruel mark on her. Our “hero” and i mean that real damn loose comes to be the new owner of Minnette our heroine.
Seville out alleged hero evokes emotions in Minnette she has never felt before. She is confused and bombarded with all of these new emotions and actions. Seville is a “different” master who wants Minnette to push the boundaries set by The Order and the hierarchy pf their society. Their relationship and the feats they face is what the reader gets to envelope themself in.
I loved the story but I also cant ignore its faults or maybe it was just me. One minute Minnette and Seville would have sex and the next minute they would be having dinner with Gramm. What tha hell just happened? So I would go back and reread to make sure I didnt miss something. Nope we really went from having sex in one paragraph yo eating dinner with Gramm or meeting with the council. Which is kind of ok since I can fill in the blanks and see that they had sex, went to sleep and decided yo have lunch with gram the next day??
I am left filling in another blank here but I think its dafe to assume that purebloods are at the top of the food chain, then mixed bloods then mankind being at the bottom. Vamps mixed with mankind are at the bottom too? Are these vamps bloodletters or Minnette was the blood letter? I think Dharma is mankind and some other mix?? In other words its not fully explained we are kind of left to assume some things.
Then we time traveled to Michigan? Did that actually happen. I think that lady was a time traveling witch. Then there were the changelings that were not werewolves but bloodhounds? Confused? Yes me too!
This is a meaty story. We have our main characters and all pf these very interesting supporting characters that play a main role. This story puts me in the mind of CS Pacat Captive Prince series . There are so many elements to this story there is no way to condense it. The author gave it her best shot but when you have gold like this the story doesn’t need to be one book and it really cant be.
I would like to see what the author would do with an extended version of this story. I want to see what happens to Gramm and their relationship explored more. What happened when Seville was entombed. Did someone of massive power not sense the betrayal?
The story is five stars hands down and thats what I am giving it. The execution needs a little work. I believe this is her first novel so brava milady brava!

I couldn't really get into this story, mainly due to the female main character, Minette. I get that Minette is a "thrall" so she has to be obsessed with pleasing her vampiric master, Seville. However, it was way to much for me when he repeatedly was "with" other women in front of the female lead in the first fifty pages of the book and she was totally ok with it simply because of the fact that "it pleased him". It got annoying how Minette thought everyone else besides her that works for Seville was dumb, lazy, and/or incompetent. I just think to me that Minette along with other characters in this book seemed very short sighted/judgy. I also didn't like how the reader is being constantly reminded that other characters including Seville think she is ugly but supposedly has a great figure.....(enough for Seville to be intensely attracted to her). I am not a fan of the "everyone is jealous of the perfect main character" troupe. The writing was ok, but the way the characters interacted with one another came off strange and robotic, especially the romance or lack there of. Overall, this was DNF for me.

A stunning train wreck. I couldn't look away.
Reminded me of Stormfire, but with vampires, blood sex and corpse sex.

Is there a second book coming?

Yea No!
I like sexy time in my books but there has to be more than just that in a book. you know like a good plot may less Master. Insert eye roll. I don't mind spanking in a book but please. If you have to skim past scenes it's not worth me reading anymore.

I never want her to stop writing these amazing stories...I WILL cry! Lol I have read every release by this author and even a hard copy of The Bastard and the Bird and LOVED everyone single one! This story was such an amazing journey with a bad ass cover to match! I’m always amazed at how fast these releases are put out with the length of pages that never disappoint (the longer the better for me). I will continue to keep my eyes open for more amazing stories ❤️

I freaking loved this story. Most of the negative opinions come from readers who should have trusted the reviews. I saw a comment that complained about the amount of sex and her use of ‘Master’. It’s erotica! She’s a submissive! Another gave this amazing story two stars but mentioned wanting to read more from this author. Why??? Leave the dark stuff for those of us who love it.

4.5 stars — maybe mini spoilers below?
Oh My God.
I was addicted to this book. Stayed up till the wee hours of the morning reading and then got up and read again till I was done.
It was so depraved and I felt equal measures of disgust and hopefulness numerous times throughout the book. It was full of sex - but somehow that seemed appropriate, give the story.
I tried to understand Seville. I really did. As a pureblood vampire, he just took what and who he wanted when he wanted. He was such a flawed character. Is it because he’s a vampire that he had no impulse control? He tried to go against his true nature by attempting to forsake all others because he loved Minette but just couldn’t stay with it. He thought with his dick most of the time. I believe his love for her was all consuming but he loved her in the way of a vampire - which was as painful as it was obsessive. In the end, I fell onto the side of contempt when I thought of him. Eventually, there was no redeeming him when he kept failing to keep his promises to her. Even though he was remorseful after the fact and did end up sacrificing himself for her.
I felt Minette’s pain of loving a creature who could never be faithful. How she would always choose to stay, even though he was so selfish. I felt great satisfaction when she would kill/hurt/belittle his other females and he didn’t do anything to rectify the situation - even after the death of one of them. In fact, he was the opposite - just took her to bed instead. That was but one example of his callous nature with the lives of all those around him.
The ending was acceptable. No real flowers or chocolates but it felt like coming full circle.
So - all in all - excellent read. It went against all my romantic notions to like this book, especially when I HATED his behaviour most of the time. I felt her pain but couldn’t put this down. I recommend this as a great read but be prepared that you may feel as conflicted as I did - liking and hating it at the same time but still compelled to read it all the way to the end.
Oh My God.
I was addicted to this book. Stayed up till the wee hours of the morning reading and then got up and read again till I was done.
It was so depraved and I felt equal measures of disgust and hopefulness numerous times throughout the book. It was full of sex - but somehow that seemed appropriate, give the story.
I tried to understand Seville. I really did. As a pureblood vampire, he just took what and who he wanted when he wanted. He was such a flawed character. Is it because he’s a vampire that he had no impulse control? He tried to go against his true nature by attempting to forsake all others because he loved Minette but just couldn’t stay with it. He thought with his dick most of the time. I believe his love for her was all consuming but he loved her in the way of a vampire - which was as painful as it was obsessive. In the end, I fell onto the side of contempt when I thought of him. Eventually, there was no redeeming him when he kept failing to keep his promises to her. Even though he was remorseful after the fact and did end up sacrificing himself for her.
I felt Minette’s pain of loving a creature who could never be faithful. How she would always choose to stay, even though he was so selfish. I felt great satisfaction when she would kill/hurt/belittle his other females and he didn’t do anything to rectify the situation - even after the death of one of them. In fact, he was the opposite - just took her to bed instead. That was but one example of his callous nature with the lives of all those around him.
The ending was acceptable. No real flowers or chocolates but it felt like coming full circle.

Wow!
Never a dull moment with this book.
Minette loved Seville, and he loved her; that was plainly evident. I love when the h provides something special to the H, something others can’t. Throughout this angst packed, heart stopping tale, Minette does provide him something he wanted, something the countless others didn’t.
But, I have to say that Dharma stayed in my head, always making me feel like she provided something special that he NEEDED. I don’t know how he managed to release her, and I am not clear on how Seville was able to stop his fiend.
I plan to read this book repeatedly. It has so much to offer, and gives me every feeling I look for in a book. The writing is amazing, and details are provided to keep you always front and center, and the heart stomping ?? Yep, hurts so good, each and every time.
I would love more books…. I don’t think I was ready to leave them!

What I've been looking for
This author has done it yet again. This is an awesome captivation scorching read. I started and could not tear myself away from the way she built and revealed these scarred Characters to you. Even though both characters are floored they add to one another us such a beautiful way. There is literally someone for everyone and these two brokers souls are eternal mates. When you love someone it is the good with the bad and Mrs JunJun conveyed what love really and truely looks like with this couple. I adore this book....love her previous books read every last one of them but this one is my favorite book period.

JanJan writes amazing stories about imperfect characters that take you on a wild ride.
This story is worth the read, I am sad that it ended.
Looking forward to the next book.
Please keep writing these wonderful stories and charismatic H/h!

More Than Words!!!
This book will have you taking on a deeper understanding of what submission means and the different forms of it. This story revolves around Minette and Seville. Both Seville and Minette come from completely different backgrounds on the surface but as you discover throughout this story, not all is what it seems. The journey of re-self discovery for both Minette and Seville was very interesting to read as they tried to overcome their sets ways. It was very good to see emotions that come to the surface which no one was ready for. I really enjoyed reading all the secrets and revelations that come up throughout the story. I really hope we get to see more of these characters in future books. Another Great story by JanJan!!!

When a great shares greatness what can you say
Jan Jan Untamed delivers another marvelous tale of love and magic. Who but an extraordinary author can have you cheering for a fiendish villan? Have you wishing to be in Minette's place so you can touch Seville for the briefest of seconds?
Is this a tale for the faint of heart or anyone who is the least bit squeamish? NO. This is a tale of a love so dark that you know there's no light at the end of the tunnel, but who needs like with darkness like Seville.

I Did Not Want it To End
there are not enough words to describe how much I enjoyed this book. It grabbed my attention from the beginning and held it all the way through the end. Watching Minette’s transformation was indescribable. Her relationship with Seville was like an adaptation from the original Brothers Grimm fairytales. I highly recommend this book.

Wow! What a love story.
This is a new arthur for me and I must say this was an amazing experience. The complexity of the hero and heroine and the life they weaved together kept me captivated. Seville's drive and needs with impunity left me speechless, but his true love Minette changed everything. This is an amazing love story with tons of twist and turns that will keep you guessing what's next and lots of aftercare. I'm looking forward to diving into more of JanJan's books.

Good Read
JanJan surprised me and dropped this book. I've been so interested in Minette since The Butcher of Beaumont. Minette was awesome. Seville reminds me of an Antonov, if you catch my drift. He changed Minette for the better and turned her into something she didn't want. I hated the jealous lady stuff but other than that, I could not put this down. I liked the tie into what I call the JanJan Untamed universe. As soon as I saw the character's name that tied this book to the others, I smiled.

I always enjoy reading JanJan Untamed novels. This story of one of her best work in my humble opinion. This book will leave you sleep deprived which means, its sooo freaking awesome, fantastic, hottt.... brutal.
It's everything. If you're a PRUDE try reading you may learn a thing or 2😀😀.
Well worth 5 stars and more!!

Very distinct descriptions Minette, quite vivid 😒
Such dedication to service it’s sickening but then am still reading at 27% so I hope she loosens up a bit.
It’s an interesting book so I’ll just keep coming back here to rant as I read.
Master… certainly doesn’t hesitate in putting his peeny in the body of different people that’s for sure..
Wife, sister, relative, mistress, mister, maids, servants , dog , dead , alive, lifeless, “lifefull” or whatever you are, everybody gets a piece or pieces of master’s penis and you’ll want it, fight for it even 🤦♀️
A master who is a slave to the desires of his penis…
“Give me a daughter.”
Seville whispers as he spills his seed. “Give me what I want.”
“Yes, Master.”
It only makes sense I guess, the man “spills his seed” and commands the gender of the babies he wants at will, so yes, yes master 🤷♀️
The young prince gasps with delight. He wants what we all want. To be fucked by Seville
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
“I will never be a man.” Seville explains. “I will never be satisfied with one lover. It is not how I am made. You need to accept this. I can stick my cock in a hole in the wall, it does not mean that I love it. It does not mean that I want it more than you. It means that I felt like sticking my cock in the wall”
Lol! Seville sounds like my ex!
What a stupid thing to say to a woman he claims to love and would give his “life” to be with?
How do you love someone and still manage to be unfaithful to them?
Beyond the precepts of this book, how do people get away with spewing rubbish like this?
We all have these sexual desires with a tendency to be irresponsible too but some of us CHOOSE to preserve ourselves for the ONE person we love.
You can’t just DO anybody you see just because!
Why do men think it’s their biological right to be irresponsible?
This lack of accountability is exactly what is wrong with our society
“Because I never will.”
Seville’s hands are raising my gown around myhips. “They are necessary, Minette. This—”
His cock pushes into me. “Is home.”
And there it is, Seville’s cock saves the day again
Oh Minette! You must think you are so special don’t you?
“You fucked her.” I lower my goblet to glare at him. “You went for a ride today and fucked a strange woman while I was dying. Now you are pissed because she showed up at your door?”
“That is our door.” He corrects me. “And I never fucked her.
She sucked my cock.”
Wow! Seville, that definitely makes it better..
Just when I was beginning to adjust to the way she adores him, Seville’s cock strikes again
But the again, Minette did say “He wants what we all want. To be fucked by Seville”
Irresistible Seville whose penis is a hot commodity for every movable or immovable item
Secondly, why would Minette complain so much when she obviously knows the man she got with?
Girl, you asked for this man.
You were so keen on “serving” him when you arrived and all of a sudden you want to keep him for yourself when you practically took him away from his wife?
Double standards much? 🙄
“Being in love with me does not give you the right to say anything about my choices. However, the way you love me is rare. It is a gift that I will never deserve, and I cherish it. I thank you for it. You deserve to be treated with love for all that you give to me. Your peace is more important to me than sticking my cock inside another female.”
And there he goes again, warming his way back into my heart after his atrocious acts.
I fear that I may be more fickle minded than Minette at this point.
These books are bad for me 🤦♀️
Now reading at 51% , the sex scenes are not as much as it was when the book started. Thank goodness!!
It’s a beautiful story and I’m so eager to see if Seville and Minette’s love will survive the abnormally of their situation.
I really like Joy’s personality, very….. civilized which can’t be said for the rest of the book.
Oh well!! We are back to sucking Seville’s “cock” again but that’s okay I guess…
“I spoke their names while I was fucking you. Do you believe that I never speak your name while I am fucking them? It happens once a day.
This is nothing to be upset about when you already know that I have other lovers”
Yea, I’m really in a toxic relationship with romance books 🤦♀️
Ah!! Why do I keep doing this to myself?
“This is not the end of us, Minette.” Seville promises, approaching me slowly.
“There will never be an end to us. When I cage the fiend, and I will find a way to cage him, I am returning for my lady and my sons. If there is a husband in my way, I will fuck him before I kill him.”
This scene was so sad but why do I feel like I know who’s coming to mend poor Minette’s broken heart while she and Seville are figuring it out? 🤔🤔
A certain pure blooded stranger that she first met with his sister
Reading on….
“It is you who inspires the poet that you claim me to be.” Seville adjusts his namesake in his arms to pull me closer. “Your perfection would tongue-tie the best of troubadours. An artist will never have the right shades or the eye that it would take to interpret you in paint. The musician can only be
inspired. They will all be in awe of you.” He pulls my head back by my hair and kisses me. “The way I am in awe of you.”
Awwwnnnnnn Seville and his baby mama have my heart in a chokehold with this sweetness
Minette and her “self righteous” thoughts:
This is my fault. I ruined her husband and their peace the day I rang their bell. Seville is her husband. He made vows to her that he disregards to please me. What if I was his wife and he turned me away for a thrall? It would lower me to her station
Me;
I don’t know ma’am, pick a side and stay there quietly. Either you are taking the woman’s husband without remorse or you leave him alone.
Stop manipulating us with your feigned kindness.
We definitely saw a lot of Seville St. John’s “cock” everywhere in this book.
But girl, I know you wanted to wrap this up quickly but that ending was so undesirable
Overall, it was a good story.
Came here for the smut, stayed for the plot!!
Cue curtains

Ever since I discovered JanJan Untamed via a view from the bottom, she has not disappointed me. Her books remind me of those epic journey books that were written ages ago. They are well thought out, very relatable characters even if they are from a different time or era.
I have to say ROABS is now my second favourite JanJan book. I will break it into three acts.
The first act spoke to that deep dark and nasty part of me who enjoys seeing characters being their best crazy, nasty ass selves. I enjoyed that this book let you know where the story was going whilst ensuring they you are investing in the characters
Second act solidifies the love between the H and h. Even though they are not perfect (I don’t think JanJan has perfect characters cuz they are mostly batshit crazy)
The third act gave me the ending that I wanted by ensuring it wasn’t what I thought in the first act. Even connected to another book of hers. This is what I love about JanJan and why I will always recommend her books.

Pureblood and Witches
Minette was raised to serve. Seville a pureblood was the most powerful of his kind, and he wanted Minette. In their time most women were treated more like sex slaves and used for their blood. Seville knew Minette was different, he broke her and molded her into what he wanted. This book is not for the faint of heart.

Enjoyable taboo,paranormal tale,but...
Enjoyable taboo paranormal tale but disappointing in that it has an excessively redundant storyline that includes a repetitive highly sexualized formula.It is also somewhat pleasantly overly romanticized . However, any perceived shortcomings will not deter me from evaluating further titles from this author!😂

It was very repetitive with no real plot in which the readers are accustomed to by this author. It was hundreds of pages if sex and more sex without any substance.
