Deadly Secrets: The Crown #3
Deadly Secrets: When Queens Are Crowned
★This series would be best read if you start with Deadly Secrets Series Brothers That Bite books 1-5 and other novellas. Deadly Secrets The Crown Series Books 1-2.★
Heavy is the head who wears the crown.
Taria Cross lost both of her parents in a single night of battle. The pain of the loss was just the beginning for this Vampire Queen and her family. On the heels of that loss, she never expected to be attacked and stabbed through the heart right in front of her children and Kindred Soul Michael Vaughn.
Now Taria must face the fact her enemy Apu kidnapped her right from under everyone’s nose. Taria is now a prisoner in Hell, and her Impundulu powers cannot help her through this fight. The only saving grace is the voice she heard in the darkness of Katara, the fire elemental who gave a piece of herself in a necklace. Her protection will only last but so long, and Taria is determined to use all the time she has to escape or die trying. What Taria wasn’t expecting was an ally willing to help and protect her while she fights her way through the legions of demons in Hell.
Taria’s only question is, can she trust him when he’s tried killing her once before?
Michael Vaughn is King over all Vampires, but he couldn’t save his heart with all his powers. Taria Cross, his Kindred Soul, was taken in front of his eyes, and there was nothing he could do. After finding his mother, a brother, he never knew existed, and a grandmother who was thought long dead, Michael still lost the one person who made it all worth it. Now Michael must find his other half and bring her home to their two children. Michael finds out a secret involving Toya that could be the answer to saving Taria and could tear Toya’s world apart. With Toya and Shannara’s help, Michael knows that whatever the secret, they would do what is necessary to save Taria and his unborn child no matter the circumstances. Michael vowed to find Taria, even if he had to burn down the entire world to find her.
Can Michael figure out how to save Taria, or will he all lose her this time for good?
Will Toya and Shannara do whatever it takes to help Michael save Taria?

So many secrets
Look here! These books for this series are amazing! You have to read them all. You will find yourself re-reading them. You will find have sooo many aha moments when reading them because info comes together, a reference to something becomes clearer, secrets are revealed!
This book sheds light on a lot of things, but it also introduced new characters into the mix. All of the characters have a past known and sometimes unknown even to them. They’re all holding something back but it comes out sometimes like a dropped bomb! All kinds of destruction or chaos ensues as a result of what isn’t known or shared but is finally revealed. But despite the aftermath of what is revealed there is also a sense of relief because you’re screaming in your head “I knew something wasn’t right with him/her, the situation, and or the story they told.
The characters are so very well written. The plot is mind blowing and keeps me reading every single book that comes out in the series. Everything ties together in some way or somehow. And even with all of the fighting, killing, and surviving people are still loving, having families, reuniting, friendships, bonding, and making love.
Toya has grown in this book. She has always been extra and a lot! But I will definitely acknowledge that she has matured (thank God). Taria still is kicking butt and taking names but it was good to see have more vulnerability. She’s matured too. They both are still hard headed and jump into the fire but they’re thinking about things more because they have a lot to lose. Na’na is my girl and I enjoyed the way she was in this book. Of course all of the males mates and otherwise were good too. Damon aka Demon (in my head) totally redeemed himself and his story made me tear up.
I’m all in. I’m here for it all. I’m committed.
I think everyone should be too.

Please read and tell your friends to read!
It’s been a long but enjoyable and thrilling ride with this series. And I need to know will there be more? I need more! This series is so good and this book is just one of them. I live in the DMV so it was so fun to read about places I knew. I really could visualize this story and it made reading it so exciting.
E Bowser does a great job in weaving in small details that end up being bigger pieces of the plot later in the series. You have to pay attention to every word and with this series that will not be a problem. I spent many nights up at 3 am reading these books because I didn’t want to put them down. I’m so amazed at how captivating all the characters are. It’s hard to pick a favorite.
Taria and Toya are badass women but you can see their growth in this series. Bowser showed this marvelously. They were really snappy and fully of sarcasm in the first two books but they matured. The sarcasm matured as well which provided comedic relief from the intense scenes. I keep thinking about who they were when they were just two girls taking a trip to Florida and how life changed for them afterward. Taria asked for change and Bowser delivered with a world filled with interesting characters that have complex backgrounds and personalities. Even the enemies in this story have a deeper story.
In this book, I’m most happy about Damon’s redemption! His story of how he became bad was unexpected and was a great spin on it. I could read a novella on him and his Shade. *hint hint* Also, I need more on Nuriel and Katherine. We know Micah’s soul was never destroyed and it had to make it way back to its mate, Katherine.
Overall, the series had so many themes where you can delve deeper and have you reflect on your life. For example, the concept of soulmates and their strong bonds as well as the familial bonds. The intimacy is deep and feels genuine. Sisterhood and brotherhood themes are throughout and they are stronger when unified.
I rarely write reviews but this series deserves it. The word must be spread. We need this made into a tv show! People talk about the lack of diversity in fantasy shows and authors like E. Bowser are delivering it in books!
Overall, well done series that I plan to re-read many times.

Great Read!
I love these characters! Especially, Garrett and Lily; the adopted children of Michael and Taria! I love how they seem to be growing into their gifts! Toys did was really on point in this book! She kicked butt! I also love how this author builds up her characters and isn't afraid to kill some off! I just hope that she finds a way to bring those people back some how. Good should always prevail over evil!!!! I do believe everyone who reads this book will enjoy it! I definitely recommend it!

Can’t wait for the next book
I can’t believe I ended up like Damon now and his funny wits! He seems like he’s going to make a good uncle. I can’t wait to see what happens after Tiara gives birth. Hell I want a story with all the children grown and being bad asses like their parents.

E. Bowser does it again. This book was a good read from beginning to end. Taria and Michael finally became the King and Queen. Toya also took her rightful place. There were many secrets revealed in the series plenty of action between good and evil.

I had a feeling there was more to why Damon was doing what he was doing but I didn’t realize he had to or Mike wouldn’t have his Kindred, his powers or the crown. This story just keeps you on your toes and I love it. Can’t wait to see how this epic battle of good vs evil plays out

An Amazing Adventure!
This series just keeps getting better. E. Bowser does it again. I cannot get enough of the action packed world that is Deadly secrets. This book solidifies the bonds of family even tighter, and highlights the confidence of the group we love. As they settle into the madness of getting used to secrets being revealed, we experience them also constantly developing their powers. We even get a great scare with a major turn of events no one saw coming. Because you know MORE SECRETS 😒. The comedy laced between is a good balance. Some old frenemies reappear, making this installation full of surprises. Toya and Taria are always a riot and lean into their destinies a bit more this book. Marcus and Shannara take on more challenges, and overcome hurdles. I can’t wait to dive into more the villains never disappoint and the author satisfies us everytime with consequences. This series is great!
