About this ebook

Books 4-6 in the Chaos series (including bonus novella, Kings).

Usurper

It’s been a year since Cara returned to the human realm with her daughter, and the fae have come knocking again. The game of kings is still being played, power is the ultimate prize, and Scarlet is an asset every court wishes to acquire. 

As Sadler’s next move is revealed to be his deadliest yet, and Scarlet’s burgeoning powers begin to develop into something that can’t be hidden, Cara realises that something more significant than a faery promise is needed to protect her family. It’s time for her to build on what she started in Sadler’s court. 

But although the game is seductive, the price of winning might be too costly for a human to pay.

Blight

As the blight spreads, destroying the land, Cara’s new subjects turn on her, and Brendan and Drake are no longer there to help her. The Darksiders thought she’d be pliable, or maybe even a miracle-worker, and it’s not as easy to scrub away Sadler’s influence as she thought. 

But Scarlet isn’t her only priority any more, and once the ceremony to swear her in as regent is done, it’ll be time for Cara to join forces with the kings, find a way to stop the blight, and prove to the fae that she can be the leader they need. 

It took a Darksider to steal the throne; it’ll take a faery queen to keep it.

Kings

Set between books five and six in the Chaos series, Kings is a brief look into the lives of Drake and Brendan. 

After sealing the rift, Drake hears word of his wife’s sickness only to find that the cause is exactly what unites his enemies against him. 

Brendan’s journey across unexplored waters is only beginning, and if he finds what he’s looking for, he’ll owe a determined woman a throne by his side. But can he do it? 

Whatever course of action is taken next, they will change their world.

Sacrifice

As a king’s life hangs in the balance, alliances are made then broken. Only trickery can help Cara protect those she cares about, but when her enemies show their true face, she realises the truth: every distraction feeds Chaos. Cara’s not the only one searching for a legendary treasure, not the only one reaching for power. The journey’s not over, but at the end of every path lies Sacrifice.


Ratings and reviews

Protagonist wallow too much in self pity. She is shown as taking unnecessary risks just so the story can have twists. Running after a mad woman into the woods and getting abducted? Come on.. Its so obvious. More mushy talk than description of important events. A lot of pages can be skipped altogether without missing anything. Dialogues are so modern that reader fail to connect it with a fairy realm. The storyline is strong but the storytelling disappoints. With proper editing you could sell this book.

way too much repetitive writing but overall a great storyline. She definitely could've expanded the series with a little more imagination and less repetition on Cara's thoughts and feelings. She seemed to pack too much excitement into single books rather than subtly spreading it out and concentrating on more key points. I also expected more out of the ending when it came to Scarlets gifts and Cara's happiness with Brendan. Still an exciting read worth while.

This is a nice book. It's addictive. Literally. I even read in class. But I really wanted Cara to end up with Drake. I'm not really a fan of Brendan. But I guess he works too. That is the only reason I'm rating this book 3 stars. #DrakeandCara
