⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️。5/5🌶️🌶️/5After the cliffhanger at the end of book 1， this hits the ground running。 Lor doesn’t trust those around her， doesn’t know how to go about working towards her goal， all while behind worried about those she loves that she was forced to leave behind in prison。 Lor was thrown into prison as a child and spent 12 years of her life there， so she’s guarded and impulsive， yet fierce。 Once she realizes she and the MMC have a common goal， she starts to relax some but has some groundbreak ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️。5/5🌶️🌶️/5After the cliffhanger at the end of book 1， this hits the ground running。 Lor doesn’t trust those around her， doesn’t know how to go about working towards her goal， all while behind worried about those she loves that she was forced to leave behind in prison。 Lor was thrown into prison as a child and spent 12 years of her life there， so she’s guarded and impulsive， yet fierce。 Once she realizes she and the MMC have a common goal， she starts to relax some but has some groundbreaking secrets she makes him earn。 I love how fiercely protective she is over her siblings and what they have to protect。 The tension between the MCs is so， so good。 They want each other， but don’t want any emotional attachments。 She hates him， but wants him and denies her desire most of the time。 All while the MC is upfront about how much he wants her。 They’re both stubborn and fight each other at every turn。 I honestly love their bickering and hope they never stop。 Their bickering is like foreplay as one of the side characters puts it: “If you two could stop flirting， maybe we can get on with it？ You’ll argue and bicker in your fucked up little version of foreplay”This is probably the slowest of slow burns I’ve ever read， but the tension is so good and the payoff is worth it。 This is book 2 in a 4 book series and I cannot wait for the next book。 The cliffhanger at the end of book 2 leaves so many possibilities for where Tulli can take these characters and this story。 I have some predictions and I can’t wait to see if I’m right。 Tropes/Highlights:- Sloooow burn- Enemies-to-lovers- Fae court politics- Fated mates- Only one horse- I hate you but I want you⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️。5/5🌶️🌶️/5I received this as an ARC and this is my honest opinion。 。。。more

4。5 stars "She's the only thing that's ever made me feel any sort of true happiness。” Rule of the Aurora King is book 2 in the Artefacts of Ouranos series。 This is book 2 in a 4 book series and while this is a spoiler-free review for this book， do not continue if you do not want to be spoiled for events in the first book。。 I received an early copy from the author。 Decision to review and content of the review is my own。 Story At the end of book 1， Lor has seen the truth of Atlas' motivations 4。5 stars "She's the only thing that's ever made me feel any sort of true happiness。” Rule of the Aurora King is book 2 in the Artefacts of Ouranos series。 This is book 2 in a 4 book series and while this is a spoiler-free review for this book， do not continue if you do not want to be spoiled for events in the first book。。 I received an early copy from the author。 Decision to review and content of the review is my own。 Story At the end of book 1， Lor has seen the truth of Atlas' motivations but she's quickly faced with a new predicament when she's taken from his dungeon and delivered to Nasir。 Book 2 starts a few weeks later， and while she's been captive she hasn't love her spirit。 Nadir has not hurt her and only wants information， but true to her nature， Lor refuses to divulge anything until she knows her siblings are okay。 The love of family is as present as ever for her and I loved seeing it。Once they get things settled and start to confide in each other， they learn their goals and motivations aren't so different。 They don't trust each other immediately but they start building a foundation and working towards a common goal - take the Aurora King down。 As readers we knew they both wanted that in book 1， but when they learn it about each other， they decide to team up so Lor can do what the Mirror told her to do in book 1 so she can take the Aurora King down as she's always wanted。 In addition to being an interesting storyline， it also gives a lot of opportunity to expand the world， develop Lor's character， and explore the romantic desire Nadir and Lor share。 Characters Lor can't seem to help herself when it comes to challenging Nadir - partly because she can't help herself （as a character she's a bit brash but really I can't fault her there， 12 years in a prison starting when you were a child is bound to impact your impulse control when it comes to challenging authority） and partly that he never truly hurts her。 There's also a sense that he enjoys the challenge。 Their bickering feels like foreplay and I was here for it！ For his part， Nadir seems cold and aloof but he's got such deep love for the people he cares about and just wants to protect them all。Their relationship had so much tension it floored me but the payoff was so worth it。 The spice in this book is hot and while it's slowburn， the build up just makes it all the hotter。 While neither of them is keen on an emotional attachment， they can't stop their feelings and I loved the turmoil it caused them， especially with how open Nadir was in his desire for her。 He states his attraction plainly and is sensitive to her history with men not being the best。 And even with all that， they never lose that spark that makes them challenge each other and go head to head。 It made their relationship feel delightful。 Final Thoughts I'm so excited for the direction the story is taking and the way the romance is unfolding。 The ending of this book isnt too cliffhangery but I'm still bouncing in my chair for book 3 because I can't wait to see what happens next！Find Me On: Instagram / TikTok / Facebook 。。。more

“There is magic in her。 Of that， I’m sure。 And mine is trying to get at it。”Out of the pot and into the frying pan。 Lor gets away from Atlas and ends up with Nadir， the son of her enemy。 In order to find a missing artefact that will help answer questions to her past and future， she has to team up with the man she doesn’t trust。 A sprinkle of fake dating， and a hint at fated mates， Lor’s story continues in book 2。 I was really excited for this book and while I liked it， I really liked book one mo “There is magic in her。 Of that， I’m sure。 And mine is trying to get at it。”Out of the pot and into the frying pan。 Lor gets away from Atlas and ends up with Nadir， the son of her enemy。 In order to find a missing artefact that will help answer questions to her past and future， she has to team up with the man she doesn’t trust。 A sprinkle of fake dating， and a hint at fated mates， Lor’s story continues in book 2。 I was really excited for this book and while I liked it， I really liked book one more。 Lor hates the Aurora King， but finds herself with mixed feelings towards his son。 While I liked Nadir， I really am not a fan of the constant “i hate you” moments。 When its overused and without reason， its less “enemies to lovers” and more “annoying girl。” That might just be personal preference though。 I didn’t connect with these two in the way I was hoping。 I felt like a lot of the moments between them were awkward。 I had really wanted to see more of Ouranos and loved seeing the relationship between Nadir， his sister， and Mael。 Somehow I felt like this book went too fast， but also was too slow？ I felt like we were in the character’s heads too much and when there was moments with plot， it felt like it went by too quickly。 I thought the flashbacks to Serce were very interesting and really liked the relationship between her and Wolf。 This was a really cool setup for the backstory and information about the Kingdom of Heart。 Lastly， Lor drove me up the wall in this book。 Her constant “I hate him” “I wont give him my heart” and then being angry with him for not knowing/caring that she was in Nostraza。 Girl， theres hundreds of prisoners there…。 Why would he know/care？ She was borderline obsessed with this and it felt extremely illogical how she attached herself to this。 It could have just been her trying to tell herself she shouldn’t like him， but this bugged me。 She was also giving me a bit of whiplash with her indecisiveness。 I will patiently wait to read the next book and see how Lor grows。 I want to thank the author for the ARC of this book。 All my reviews are my own opinions。 3。75 ⭐️ 1。25 🌶️ 。。。more

Trial of the Sun queen was one of my favorite reads so far this year BUT …。 Rule of the aurora king topped it hands down ！ I could not get enough of this book 。 Total ACOTAR vibes （if you enjoyed that series then I highly recommend this one ） It has everything I like in a good book : great world building ， one horse ， one bed ， forced proximity， dual pov ， touch her and die ， I hate you but can’t keep my hands off you ， angst ！！！ Soo much sexual tension and fated mates。 This is a true enemies to Trial of the Sun queen was one of my favorite reads so far this year BUT …。 Rule of the aurora king topped it hands down ！ I could not get enough of this book 。 Total ACOTAR vibes （if you enjoyed that series then I highly recommend this one ） It has everything I like in a good book : great world building ， one horse ， one bed ， forced proximity， dual pov ， touch her and die ， I hate you but can’t keep my hands off you ， angst ！！！ Soo much sexual tension and fated mates。 This is a true enemies to lovers for me where they can’t stand each other but also want to do nothing but rip each others clothes off 。 Fae territorial bs （which I absolutely love ） and yet our main female character doesn’t just sit there and put up with it 。 Being a prisoner all her life she’ll never let anyone “own “ her again 。 Which only adds even more angst to the story line 2。5🌶️Tropes : *one bed*one horse *forced proximity *enemies to lovers *dual pov *touch her and 💀 。。。more

Rule of the Aurora King falls in with some of the greats， A Court of Mist and Fury by SJM and Kingdom of the Wicked by Kerri Maniscalo for OUTSTANDING SEQUELS。 The Trials of the Sun Queen was one of my favorite books of 2022， but this BOOK just blew me away。 I tried to pace myself but I DEVOURED IT。 I cannot WAIT for the third book。We continue off the story right after the ending of the first book， Lor has been taken by the Prince of the Aurora， Nadir。 After a rocky start （with him holding her " Rule of the Aurora King falls in with some of the greats， A Court of Mist and Fury by SJM and Kingdom of the Wicked by Kerri Maniscalo for OUTSTANDING SEQUELS。 The Trials of the Sun Queen was one of my favorite books of 2022， but this BOOK just blew me away。 I tried to pace myself but I DEVOURED IT。 I cannot WAIT for the third book。We continue off the story right after the ending of the first book， Lor has been taken by the Prince of the Aurora， Nadir。 After a rocky start （with him holding her "captive"）， Lor and Nadir decide to work together as their goals align。 If she plays as his plaything during social events， he we will help her search for the crown。 While they work to find the hidden objects that may be the key to restoring the heart， they are also fighting against their growing attraction towards one another。。。 So this book has literally ALL OF MY FAVORITE TROPES - One horse- Fated Mates- One bed- Found Family- Touch/ Look at her and Die- Enemies to Lovers- Forced Proximity- Kidnapper/Captive- Hidden Identity- Political Intrigue- Fake relationship （fake plaything - think Feyre at the Court of Nightmares）This book was fantastic and as I previously mentioned， a great follow up to Trial of the Sun Queen。 Where as Trial of the Sun Queen really focused on the Trials and Lor and Atlas' relationship， this book really focuses on her growing relationship with Nadir and finding the crown。 This book has three different pov's - Lors， Nadirs and Flashback chapters of Serce， from 286 years ago。 Usually I am not a huge fan of these types of flashbacks， but Nisha did a great job of leaving each flashback on a cliffhanger while making it spicy？ Amazing - just giving us what we want！ :）The slow burn between the two MC's was INCREDIBLE。。。 the best slow burn I have read in a long time。 The build up is incredible and at about 50% though you finally get SOME relief - but you never feel fully satisfied。 The banter between the both of them， the love to hate/hate to love， the push and pull。 PERFECTION。 Whenever Lor said no and was being cautious with her heart， he respected her boundaries and was patient and was always asked for consent before touching her， ugh my heart。 THE SPICE， was fantastic。 Nadir is filthy and I was living。 “I just had my tongue inside you， Inmate。 Didn’t you know that Fae are very territorial？”If that quote doesn't convince you， I don't know what will。This book was fantastic and I think YOU should read it （DM me if you wanna chat）。 The Rule of the Aurora King by Nisha T Juli is out TOMORROW， April 6th！ Make sure to check out the first book Trials of the Sun Queen （available on KU NOW）Thank you Nisha you absolute gem for the ARC， all thoughts and gushing are my own。 。。。more

“I hurl the vase with all my strength， missing the Aurora Prince’s head by just a hair。”This is one of those books that I just knew I was going to love by the end of the first page。 Hell I could tell by the first line。 Nisha Tuli is one of my favorite authors （I’ve read and loved all of her books） so I knew that she was setting the scene for some delicious tension between Nadir （the Aurora Prince） and Lor and my God did she deliver。 The tension was palpable throughout the book。 The banter？ Some “I hurl the vase with all my strength， missing the Aurora Prince’s head by just a hair。”This is one of those books that I just knew I was going to love by the end of the first page。 Hell I could tell by the first line。 Nisha Tuli is one of my favorite authors （I’ve read and loved all of her books） so I knew that she was setting the scene for some delicious tension between Nadir （the Aurora Prince） and Lor and my God did she deliver。 The tension was palpable throughout the book。 The banter？ Some of the best I’ve ever read。 We also get adorable pet names like “Asshole” and “Inmate” that really just add to the vibes。 For the first half of the book we are fed just enough crumbs to keep us hopeful for the enemies to become lovers and finally at 53% we are rewarded for our patience and it was perfection。 Now， don’t get me wrong I loved the romance and the spice but there’s so much more to this book。 We get to see Lor really work through her trauma and work to find more of the pieces of her family history （Nadir and Lor spend most of the book trying to find the Crown of Heart）。 We learn that there’s more to Nadir than meets the eye （he’s a cinnamon roll disguised as an asshole and I love that）。 So tl;dr this book was the perfect sequel to Trial of the Sun Queen and Nisha Tuli is an absolute literary icon。 I love her and can’t wait to see what happens next。Also thank you to Nisha and The Nerd Fam for the gifted eARC of this book。 This is my honest review。 。。。more

I received an ARC through The Nerd Fam for an honest review。THIS BOOK。 It took it up a notch， and I fell in love hard。 The plot and layout were amazing。 Now Lor is taken yet again to another Kingdom， only this time she has to pretend to date the prince who took her。 I really enjoyed the tension between MC's。 I also really loved how the multiple POVs gave you insight into the past。 Really well done。 I received an ARC through The Nerd Fam for an honest review。THIS BOOK。 It took it up a notch， and I fell in love hard。 The plot and layout were amazing。 Now Lor is taken yet again to another Kingdom， only this time she has to pretend to date the prince who took her。 I really enjoyed the tension between MC's。 I also really loved how the multiple POVs gave you insight into the past。 Really well done。 。。。more

I really enjoyed this sequel。 It has some of my favorite tropes （enemies-to-lovers， slow burn， pretend plaything） and I loved Nadir。 The banter between the characters was fun with lots of nicknames the other hates， Nadir was possessive and protective， and Lor is resilient and refuses to put up with any of Nadir's antics。 This book contains a dual past/present storyline， so the reader learns a bit about the events that happened leading up to the current conflict。 I enjoyed the writing style and l I really enjoyed this sequel。 It has some of my favorite tropes （enemies-to-lovers， slow burn， pretend plaything） and I loved Nadir。 The banter between the characters was fun with lots of nicknames the other hates， Nadir was possessive and protective， and Lor is resilient and refuses to put up with any of Nadir's antics。 This book contains a dual past/present storyline， so the reader learns a bit about the events that happened leading up to the current conflict。 I enjoyed the writing style and love a good dual POV that switches between the love interests， especially in an enemies-to-lovers story。 I can't wait to read the 3rd book。 Overall， I rate this 4/5 ⭐️ and 🌶🌶/5。Thank you Nisha for providing me with an eARC in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Thank you so much for the ARC， Nisha！ After reading the first book， Trial of the Sun Queen， I was ready for a sequel。 This book was worth the wait。 We pretty much pick up from the end of the first book。 Lor is creating trouble and Nadir has his hands on her throat。 You already know it's going to be good after that。 Lor is still herself in this book， but as the story moves forward she starts to become more strong and starts to come into the Queen that she is。 Nadir is。。。 SWOON。 I already loved hi Thank you so much for the ARC， Nisha！ After reading the first book， Trial of the Sun Queen， I was ready for a sequel。 This book was worth the wait。 We pretty much pick up from the end of the first book。 Lor is creating trouble and Nadir has his hands on her throat。 You already know it's going to be good after that。 Lor is still herself in this book， but as the story moves forward she starts to become more strong and starts to come into the Queen that she is。 Nadir is。。。 SWOON。 I already loved him from the first book， but I obsessed over him in this one。 The growth we get from him。 THE RESPECT。 Ah。 He's my favorite。 Hands down。 Now， story-wise with the plot。。。 I did think it took a step back from the first book。 That was more action-packed， while this focuses more on searching for a certain item crucial to the story。 It doesn't take away from the overall story， though。 This information is much needed in the grand scheme of things。 While this book switches from Lor and Nadir's POV， there is a 3rd POV from the past。 I appreciated the storyline there and want to know more， but found this character irritating。 But I think y'all will love Wolf。 I'm already needing the next book！！ I have to know what happens after that ending。 I want more of this world and the characters。 。。。more

HERE FOR THIS SERIES！！ Think ACOTAR meets Plated Prisoner vibes。 We’ve got ACTUAL enemies to lovers， fated mates， lost kingdom， TENSION， court intrigue， dual POV， one bed。。 It’s gold- but not the BS gold of the Sun King。 I read this as an ARC which was amazing to devour this story early but now I have to wait even longer for book 3！！

Listen， this is not a fantasy masterpiece but I enjoyed reading it for what it is。My biggest issue with the book is that Lor has a ton of trauma from the abuse and torture she received as a prisoner and Nadir’s nickname for her is not cute， it’s actually cringe。 She constantly tells him to stop calling her that and he disrespects her every time he does it。 Idk what the author Nisha was going for but it’s not endearing， it’s a constant reminder of her abuse。 Stop it。

5/5 stars！ I absolutely loved this book。 I finished it in one day an could not put it down。 I had to know what was going to happen next。 Rule Of The Aurora King is the second book in the Artefacts Of Ouranos series。 I really liked the first book but this book was even better。 I can’t wait for the series to continue。 This book is released April 6， 2023。 Thank you so much to the Nerdfam & Nisha J。 Tuli for sending an advanced copy of this book。

Warning！！！ Massive cliffhangerThis book is phenomenal and absolutely riveting。 There are two different time lines woven throughout this book and the way it was written is a true testament to Nisha's amazing writing capabilities。 The tension and heat between Lor and Nadir， that was only hinted at in book 1， ramps up to a while new level whilst they search for the crown。 Meanwhile， you also hear about Lor's grandmother Serce。 Warning！！！ Massive cliffhangerThis book is phenomenal and absolutely riveting。 There are two different time lines woven throughout this book and the way it was written is a true testament to Nisha's amazing writing capabilities。 The tension and heat between Lor and Nadir， that was only hinted at in book 1， ramps up to a while new level whilst they search for the crown。 Meanwhile， you also hear about Lor's grandmother Serce。 。。。more
