Monroe was separated from his family since he was a baby, after an attempt on his life. After years of being away from them, he comes back to avenge his father’s death and finds out he could be losing his mother as well. He finds himself thrown into a race against time, to locate a cure for his mother, as well as fighting against a prophecy he is destined to repeat.

Lawrynn thought she was alone in the world, until she finds out she has a sister she knew nothing about. Being a Kanima means she is sworn to protect the people who matter the most to her and she vows to reunite with her sister Latoya. Problem is Latoya is trapped in the Forbidden Realm, a place where nothing but pain and destruction exists.

Lawrynn and Monroe are in a race against time to save both of the people they love, while battling a growing love, deadly enemies, and realm of death. Will they succeed or end up losing everything that matters the most to them, including their souls

Long live the Kings of the Underworld

The deception in this book was intense! A person who was able to morph into a man and a woman and take on the face and body of another (if you read the last book then you already know)! This still blows my mind. The Forbidden book is evil and growing up everyday in the body of innocence, but don’t be fooled! People got whole wives but ain’t telling their truths! People have real hate in their hearts for others and are smiling in their faces while serving killing tea! People have a secret agenda they’re keeping close to their chests. People have secrets period!
Kings have been crowned once the previous kings have fallen. The shifting of people to royalty has taken place.
Some took the positions reluctantly, and others are thriving in it and doing what needs to be done. There’s a lot of death and mourning happening in the Underworld and this upcoming time is a time of healing. May all the Kings rise to the occasion! Long live King Zontae King of the Underworld! Amazing read!

A great series Ms. Jackson

I loved the series!! It was exciting and page turning to the point you had to keep reading to find out what happens next. The series secretly dropped jewels of knowledge. The only thing that I did not like is when I get finished and I'm looking for the rest of the books in the series why can't they all be in order? Even with the book that coincide and intertwine with the series I whine up reading books out of turn. But anything other than that this series was a very good read.

Mind Blowing

Annitia you never leaves me disappointed. Your books keep me on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. Monroe and Lawrynn makes an amazing couple I love how well they work together. I'm so glad that Cas and Santonio got their karma. Mesa is a mess as always he kept the laughter in the story. I can't wait to read about the babies that Azrail gonna meet his match in baby Zai. Keep up the awesome work.

So many secrets!!

The drama continues in this book. It had me hooked from the beginning. Monroe and Lawrynn has so many obstacles and secrets to overcome. I can’t believe everything Latoya went through. Cas and Santonio deserves everything that they got. The demon baby is gonna be trouble. I can’t wait for the next book.

Law and Monroe

Good match, I’m happy they finally admitted their feelings. I hate Latoya left without telling her sister the truth, she was under a spell and didn’t do it intentionally. I’m glad Santonio got his but so much havoc was spread. I really feel bad for Ever and Zoom, I hope they can break the curse.

This Underworld series is amazing. Each story gets better and I am ready to see what happens next. I loved Law and Monroe and their story was so cute and fell off suspense. Annitia Jackson is my favorite paranormal author. I can't wait for the next one

Noooo I can’t believe Cas did that. They have got to fix it. I’m sick of Azrail all ready. Sound like the cat off of the smurfs. He has got to go. I was right about Latoya smh. Ish is starting to get worse. Let us pray.

Monroe finally got to be with his boo Law and they make a great team. I hope her sister Latoyacan find happiness too since it was not her fault that she was being used by that sick sociopath

Another good one

Good read. I was waiting for me more to happen tho. It felt rushed and like a prequel or something. I wonder how long we will have to wait for the next book.

I can’t believe Cas did that to her so called brother and sister. They should’ve found out about her daughter and made it even.

Definitely ended rather quickly. Lot of holes & unanswered question. I expected so much more because she is a really good writer. She got me hooked on paranormal.
