Tainted Power trilogy boxed set is a set of books that quickly engaged me and kept me page-turning to the end. I'm an avid fan/reader of Rory Miles's novels, but I usually end up getting irritated with the main female characters, but I absolutely loved this character. Shera is a succubus, and she has no intentions of being anyone pawn in a power play game, but it seems that many are intent on her being just that...starting with Lucifer himself.
I enjoyed this collection of books and Shera and her men that she collects along the way. One of my favorite characters besides Shera is her friend Jasper. He's so entertaining and I love their relationship. While it is frowned upon by others I love that they just do them. Lucifer is an interesting character as he's not what I thought. I thought that he had been there from the beginning, but the author says no and throws a nice twist.
This series has lots of twists and tons of engaging moments. You're not going to want to miss this series.
I'm rating this series 5 out of 5 stars!

The story starts to really build with action and smoking hot heat and then you are snagged! I love the dynamics shown between the characters and seeing how each of the characters react to the situations the group experiences. When you get to the last book of the boxset you really get hit will the feels, too. I loved every page and every moment! The author did a fantastic job of bringing everything together for an epicly satisfying ending.

This is a great boxset about a succubus who is totally kick ass in this addictive and entertaining read! It’s fast paced , some action and very steamy scenes in places but there’s also humour and twists and turns to make your head spin. Captivating and intriguing the author has done a great job with the world building and the character development and I really enjoyed this reverse harem paranormal romance.

This series is fantastic! I couldn't put it down once I started it and am happy to have found it in a box set format so that I could enjoy the series in one sitting. I love the world that the author has created and the characters are an interesting mix that keep you wanting more as you read. I cannot wait to see what the author comes up with next.

This boxset of three books was a cracking read that keeps you on your toes from start to finish. I really wanted to give this more than 5 stars. So good!
Shera (FMC) is a Succubus with a sassy sense of humour, full of one liners and her own sense of right & wrong. Which is perfect in this boxset with everything that happens in it. Shes also a strong and a kick*** character to that serves her well with dealing with all the drama as well as all the guys that flock to her. They certainly bring on their own complications, plenty of steam and loads of laughs too. I literally inhaled this trio of books really quickly they were that good. Shera and the guys especially Jasper made for a brilliant read. I just loved it

Shera is amazing, right off the bat you see her use her allure and she doesn't like it when she is forced into anything. She stands her ground and throughout the book you watch her come to a point where she is done with listening and ready for a change. You get demons, jinni, fae, vampires and some sexy scenes in this book that you don't want to miss! Rory did an amazing job with this book and that ending was killer and leaves me wanting more.
Wow the second book in the series did not disappoint. I love Rory's writing style and it always seems to hook me in. Shera is such a bada** and her men are sexy! There was a lot of description and world building in this book because you get to see more from the Fae realm and it was just incredible. You definitely need to grab a copy of this book because it has steam, mystery and action all packed into one.
Rory Miles definitely killed it with the conclusion for Shera's story. I am so sad to see this come to an end but for any ending this was definitely a great one! There were some very heartbreaking moments in this book and it was definitely ugly crying when Shera had the babies taken. It was amazing to see her actually letting one of her men to take charge. It shows strength even when she was having a total shut down. If you have not grabbed this book or even started the series I would highly recommend. You see a lot of growth from Shera throughout the whole series and you see so much love in this book it was amazing. Just be prepared for some heartbreak in between and have a box of tissues. Oh and you might need a cold shower as well because Rory does not disappoint with the amazing sexy scenes! I cannot what Rory comes up with next because her books are amazing!

Excellent and fast-paced series full of action, steamy scenes, devilish plots, and one succubus that has had too much of the royal politics of Hell.
Shera is one of the four beings - two incubi, two succubi - not included in the hierarchy of Hell, yet having more power than even the royals. After unsuccessful attempts to make her a breeder, being claimed by Lucifer, or used for other political goals, Shera decided she's had enough and has to take things into her own hands. Yet complications are to be expected, especially if a certain unseelie lord gets involved.
I truly enjoyed this whirlwind of emotions, power play, and twisted perspective on demons - they act really human, there being the good and the bad, the ones willing to progress and go for a change mingled with the lazy greedy sinful ones. I especially enjoyed Shera forming her bonds and alliances, developing the relationships, and every single twist in the series.

Her Retribution
Shera is one strong, independent, kick butt character that is very likable. This is a well written story with an amazing and intriguing plot line. There is plenty of humor and very steamy scenes. I liked the unpredictability of this story.
Her Reign
Gripping, captivating, intriguing, and incredibly entertaining; Her Reign is a wild ride continuing Shera's story. I loved the twist and turns that are surprising and keep the fast pace of the story going. The details make for a vivid read.
Her Resistance
The conclusion to Shera's story is filled with so many feels. It is beautifully written with dynamic and powerful characters. The twists, turns, suspense, and heat kept me engrossed in the story that I finished it in one sitting. Incredible conclusion to this trilogy!

I Don't normally read box sets because the sheer number of pages seems a bit off putting. It's like when someone puts an overloaded plate of food in front of you and you think I couldn't possibly eat all that! ...well I couldn't possibly read all that!
But a completed series by Rory Miles? Of course I am going to binge read it so I started on the appetiser, book 1. A large chunk of the first book is world building, character development I didnt have a clue where the story line was headed. So much planning must have gone into this book by the author! Book 2, the main course. Things really heat up with sex and violence galore and the story line will completely blow you away. Book 3, dessert. An amazing finish to the this series which before the story ends will have you sobbing... why???
Tears aside I adored this book and it could possibly be the best thing I have ever read!

Very interesting and unique series about demons and fae. I really liked the unusual take on both groups which was well developed in the excellent world building and character development.
Sherra is a very good FMC. Snarky and strong without being hard. As she’s a succubus there’s plenty of steam in this series. I especially thought it was funny when she got her demon period.
The other characters are engaging and interesting. Her men are totally lickable. I especially want the Fae Lord of Shadows for my own.
It too me a good third of the first book to really get into this series but it took off from there. It was definitely worth the read. Highly entertaining read. Definitely recommended.

This is the second series I’ve read from Rory, and it’s just as amazing, if not more, than the first. Full of heat, justice, and rightful violence, oh my. The world building is perfect, letting you visualize everything in your head and see the amazing descriptions in the books flawlessly. The character arcs are well written, and make you absolutely love, or hate, the characters you’re supposed to, and be utterly devoted to our MCs. The plot is beautifully written into the story, enabling you to follow it with complete dedication to The cause and fully root for the characters success. All in all, it’s an amazing series that I wish I could forget, just so I could read it again with the same feelings.
April 26, 2021
This is an amazing collection of this series. Each of these books move along at a great pace, making for enjoyable reads. You will love these characters and you want to know more about them, by the time you are on the second book you are loving them and you want to see them succeed no matter what. This is a series that needs to be read, no doubt about it. They are amazing and need to be on your TBR list and the best thing is that because they are in a set as soon as you are done one you have the next one waiting for you. this is a must read.

Complete series are the best! Not only is bingeing one of my favorite things, but I can feel even more immersed in the world because I don't have to stop till the very end. This is a great series to binge! Shera is a succubus and one incredible MFC to follow. Wanted by many especially Lucifer given her nature, she doesn't want to play by their rules anymore. Luckily she meets four men who love her wild spirit and support her fully. The steamy moments between them are hotter than the fires of hell! I couldn't put this series down!

This was a fantastic box set! I thoroughly enjoyed this series, I was hooked right away and it kept me entertained to the last page! This is a well written story with a great female lead, a kick butt, take no prisoners succubus who was very fun and easy to like! I enjoyed the whole concept of this story, plenty of action, mystery and spice! Well paced and chalk full of solid characters, I felt it was tied up nicely and was happy with how it ended. Rory Miles has quickly become a favorite authour!

Who doesn't love an entire series is one box set? It let's you start the story at the very beginning and not have to stop until the very end instead of having to wait for the next book to release. This one is fantastic! We meet Shera a kick butt succubus/demon who knows what she wants. Things get a little dicey for her that sends her on an adventure where she keeps running into men while dodging danger. Makes for quite the read as it all plays out just getting better and better as you get further into it. Makes for a fantastic read. I totally loved it so I give it 5/5 stars.

Loved it
I love box sets and this one is no exception.
You don’t get that feeling of oh no with them.
This series is a different take on the origins of hell. The outlook is brilliant. Shera is unique in not on her outlook but her thoughts and feelings too. The guys she collects along the way are just the same none of them adhere to the norm which is brilliant they make an awesome team in the struggle to make things better.

Ok so whoa, this series really started with a bang! I really didn’t want to put it down. Shera is pretty top dog! She isn’t willing to take anything from anyone. Not even the High Lord of the underworld himself. She stands up for herself and doesn’t need anyone to fight her battles for her. Yet she’s a caring and concerned person when it comes to her people. This was a great series. I really enjoyed it and look forward to reading more books by this author!

Rory Miles takes us deep in the shadows and fear of the paranormal worlds that collide, with her MC, Shera, and her collection of men.
Vast and daunting, this series breaks through barriers of fae, demonic, and earthly realms and provides pleasurable hours of reading. I got sucked in as soon as I started, and enjoyed each exciting component from this well-written complete series.
I look forward to reading more of Rory Miles, if they are as wonderful as Tainted Power!

Fantastic boxset. I love having my favourite books all in one handy place as i don't want to have to look for the next book!
Shera is a succubus and has known who she is for a long time, but times are changing and the future has plans for her that she would have never expected or wanted for herself. The royal line needs some changes and a good shake up, and Shera is stuck in the middle.
This series was soo good!

This series was brilliant, it was fast paced, full of fun and lots of steam. Shera is a great FMC, she’s sassy, funny and on a journey to free herself from the only life she’s ever known. It’s a captivating world and Rory Miles has definitely become one of my new favourite authors. She builds wonderful worlds that suck you in and before you know it you’ve reached the end of the book. Thrilling adventure and captivating read.

Fabulous series!! This series is absolutely amazing and Rory Miles does a brilliant job creating a world that sucks the reader into it. Shera is this bada$$ succubus that is tired of being used and wants to live her own life with her men. She is true to herself and takes no crap from anyone. This series is action packed with plenty of steam! Bonus, this is the box set so you can binge the series all at once! Highly recommended! 💜🖤

A trilogy that can be found in one stop shop! I have to say, I'm glad to have gotten this as a complete set as I am horrible at waiting for next in series - I am SO impatient! A great storyline with amazing characters - smooth flow that will captivate. Shera is a great, strong female character - I just loved her! Great collection - love that it's a complete series!

OMG ! What an amazing story!!!
Please tell me that this is not the end of this world and if I search this author I will find Shera daughters , Mara and all the other great characters with their own stories.
You can have a great story but what it counts is the writing , the inner monologue, dialogs ect. This author writes amazingly, I'm happy to pick another book blind I know it will be good.

Whoa! What a crazy series! What happens when you mix demon and fae mythology together? You get a bad*** heroine and a dangerously magical world setting that brings you drama, love, action, and so much more.
Really well written and entertaining.
A must read series. Recommended.

Holy crap, what a wild ride. Rory Miles manages to build up an incredible world (or should I say worlds??) that leaves you wanting for more once it ends.
The author manages the RH really well, and the chemistry between the love interest is just on par.
If you need a fix of drama, a bad ass heroine and sizzling romance, what are you waiting for?

The blurb on this is spot on! Shera is tough and kind of a bada$$. I adored her from the beginning.
It took me just a bit to really get into the story but once I did boy I COULD NOT put it down!
The sorry was awesome and the guys were a great opposite to Shera!
I definitely recommend trying this one.
