The Downfall

by Lila Grey

The time has come. Time for revenge. Time for evil to take over. Time to make Aiven regret ever punishing our families.

Princess Adriana has only known one thing in her life; evil. She lives on the island of Malum, banished there by those who claim they are good, those who live the life of luxury on the island of Aiven. But her mother has raised her to extract revenge on those families, and now is the time. The four heirs of the evil families cross the barrier, ready to start a war with Aiven. But Princess Adriana finds more than just revenge on the island...

Prince Rowan has everything he could ask for, except for a potential queen. None of the princesses on his island make his heart beat faster, until he meets the one. She's unlike any other he's met, sexy, mysterious, and gone in the blink of an eye. He needs to find her again, but learns she's not from this island. His princess is the heir to the most evil family in all their history. Not caring, he forges on to find Princess Adriana and change her mind. But will evil always prevail....?

Five out of five stars. I fell in love with the characters in the very beginning. I loved watching Adrianna struggle because it shows that we struggle as people as well. I also had been in a major reading slump and not in the mood to pick up books. It made me want to pick up another fantasy book. Rowan knows what he wants and doesn’t care who he has to go against and I loved that.
Lila made me hate three characters throughout the book. Two should be redeemable while the other one not so much.
Pippa is by far my favorite side character and hope we get her story even if it’s a novella. I also loved Asena, Lennox, and Aegaeus they are amazing characters who’s books I can’t wait for. Aegaeus shows that he’s an amazing friend who will go against his friends when they are wrong.
Another amazing book and I can’t wait to get my hands on anything Lila writes. She just has an amazing way with words and shows characters struggling so we can relate to them. Keep up the amazing work and keep your head up. 🥰

Well here is the adult version of Disney's The Descendants. So when I first starting reading this I was like oh heck yeah. We have Adriana whose mother is just evil. I mean when it all unfolds, your like dang. Adriana has been feeling like she is missing out on something but not sure what. When the barrier is down on her island, her and her friends make it to the other side. There she meets Prince Rowan and there is definitely something there. Now as they get to know each other, there are other things going on. One thing we focus on is learning to know what love is and coming together as one. Adriana wants to make her island better and have peace. Even though she wields a lot of power she can be evil when needed. We see what they have to go through just to be together. Some of the things said are harsh but it quickly put to rest at the end. There is tragedy, betrayals, and secrets that unfold but it all makes the story amazing. I cannot wait to see what will happen next.

Another great series from Lila Grey.

From the very first moment this book hooked me. this book reminded me of the all the fair tales I grow up on and more. This book has everything. The nice prince, the evil queen, and the lost princess.

Adriana is the princess of the evil Queen of Malum. With her friends, she decides to go to Aiven and cause trouble. While she is there she meets Rowan, the future king of Aiven. They feel an undeniable connection and she begins to she gets there she starts to question everything. Rowan isn't a complete nice boy and that is the draw.

GO read this book it is amazing. Can wait to see who is next.

First book in The Chronicles of the Heirs of Evil series will captivate you and you will be hooked from the start. When I first got this book I was fascinated with how it was going to turn out. Made me think about adult version of The Descendants but to me it is a cross between The Descendants and Game of Thrones. Loved both and this book gave both aspects that I loved from each. Want to know more about the other characters too. Adriana and Rowan have a connection and they go through a lot to be together. There is betrayal, chaos, struggles, and secrets that unravel in this tale that will have you enchanted. Can’t wait to see who the focus of the next book will be.

The Evil ones are imprisoned in Malum. Princess Adriana, daughter of a alums evil queen, finds a way to escape with her fiancé and friends, to get to Aiven, whose king killed her father and Imprisoned them on Malum. She meets Prince Rowan, son of her fathers killer and they try to right the wrongs of both people. You can’t help but root for both to overcome the evil of both lands. HEA and some good smexy scenes. Thanks for letting me read an Advance Copy Lila!

Lila had done it again. Great read. I couldn’t put it down (literally started around 530pm and finished around 1130). To be honest I wasn’t sure about this one; but she did it again. She hooked me at the start and reeled me in. I am pretty new to romance genre but I have fallen in love with it and Lila is a great way to ease into it. There was the PERFECT mix of love, chaos, finishing your true self, and of course hot and sexy love scenes. Can’t wait for the next one

This book was a new genre for me and I wasn’t sure if I was going to like it. By the second chapter I couldn’t put it down. Her attention to detail in the story just pulled me deeper into the story, made me want to read more, and allowed to visualize what was happening.

I enjoyed the character development that you saw progress the story. The good versus evil theme was tastefully done which only added to my enjoyment. There were plot twists, sexy scenes, and last but not least an HEA.

This book is captivating and will draw you into this magical world! I couldn’t put it down and didn’t want it to end. It will leave you wanting to know each characters own personal story. It will also leave you wanting to be one of the main characters! Lila is an outstanding writer and is always able
to occupy our minds and keep us from the real world! I love my little escape.

Great new series!

The downfall is a great way to start The Chronicles of the Heirs of Evil series. This book is not the normal type of genres that I normally read but it was a very good story and well written. The writing keeps you engaged in the story it makes it very hard to put down. I love this author and looking forward to the next book in this series

There has been mass chaos in one kingdom, and peace in another. What happens with the next generation meet, and fates change?
This story brought a bit of game of thrones style fantasy romance into my realm!
I really enjoyed this story & world building!!

[Cherish Kasner · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was an incredible book! It makes me think of Romeo and Juliet meets Descendants! The characters are well done. The storyline pulls you in and makes you not want to put it down. There are unexpected twists, and it keeps you guessing a lot of the time. A wonderful start to a new series!
