Summary
Three Powerfully Alluring Vampire Men
And One Queen to Rule Them All
All Mina ever wanted was to escape her father's control。 Half human， half vampire， she lived eternally torn between two worlds， never fully experiencing the pleasures of either—until her father chose her as the pawn in his latest political move， gifting her to the darkly powerful and dangerously seductive Malachi Zion。
Malachi is not a vampire to be trifled with。 He rules with an iron fist and has a reputation for the darkest of sins。 But the longer Mina spends with him， the more she realizes he's not the monster she first thought—and as fear bleeds into lust， then trust， then something more， Malachi opens Mina up to a world she never knew could be hers for the taking: including the love of Malachi's two closest friends and companions。
Now surrounded by all three men， the center of their shockingly seductive world， Mina may finally have the power to face down her father and take back the life—and crown—that by all rights should be hers。

This is not my first Katee Robert book， so I definitely knew what I was getting into。 Court of the Vampire Queen was entirely different than what I was expecting。 It featured very little plot and very explicit smut almost every chapter。I enjoy books like these。 Sometimes people just want a spicy read with little plot to follow along with。 Robert is definitely well known for her smut and she does NOT disappoint with this one。 This book features a MMMF romance。 I recommend checking TW/CW before re This is not my first Katee Robert book， so I definitely knew what I was getting into。 Court of the Vampire Queen was entirely different than what I was expecting。 It featured very little plot and very explicit smut almost every chapter。I enjoy books like these。 Sometimes people just want a spicy read with little plot to follow along with。 Robert is definitely well known for her smut and she does NOT disappoint with this one。 This book features a MMMF romance。 I recommend checking TW/CW before reading。 I enjoyed the relationship between the main characters。 It was not without flaws， but it was a well written relationship。 Can’t wait to see what Katee Robert does next！！ 。。。more

I've read Katee Robert before so I should've been slightly more prepared for what went down in this book but I was not！ I've never read reverse harem before but this was a great one to start with！ Our main character ends up given to a vampire， who is under her father's control， and things gets spicy。 I honestly thought this was a series and was surprised to find it a stand alone but it did wrap up quite well。 I look forward to reading more from Katee Robert in the future！Thank you to Netgalley a I've read Katee Robert before so I should've been slightly more prepared for what went down in this book but I was not！ I've never read reverse harem before but this was a great one to start with！ Our main character ends up given to a vampire， who is under her father's control， and things gets spicy。 I honestly thought this was a series and was surprised to find it a stand alone but it did wrap up quite well。 I look forward to reading more from Katee Robert in the future！Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for providing me with an arc for an honest review！ 。。。more

I’m a huge fan of Katee Robert’s books and I had yet to read this one， though I’d heard good things about it。 I was so not disappointed。 This is a reverse harem book with vampires。 I absolutely loved our heroine， Mina is a damphire， half vampire and half human and pretty kick ass。 She was a very strong character is a tough position with a lot of fight in her， And her three men， so spicy， you just can’t pick one。 I loved this book。**Received an ARC for an honest review**

I had these on my TBR for a while when they were previously self-published as the Bloodline Vampires novella series。 So of course I jumped at the chance to read an ARC of the books released in one volume。 This is pure Katee Robert， but it reminds me more of her Touch of Taboo series than her newer Dark Olympus books。Mina is a dhampir （half-vampire， half-human） but unlike her half-siblings， she hasn’t inherited any of her vampire father’s power。 Bloodline vampires like him have specific powers li I had these on my TBR for a while when they were previously self-published as the Bloodline Vampires novella series。 So of course I jumped at the chance to read an ARC of the books released in one volume。 This is pure Katee Robert， but it reminds me more of her Touch of Taboo series than her newer Dark Olympus books。Mina is a dhampir （half-vampire， half-human） but unlike her half-siblings， she hasn’t inherited any of her vampire father’s power。 Bloodline vampires like him have specific powers like the ability to control fire or shapeshift。 Her only use is as a sacrifice to Malachi， a bloodline vampire he has under his thumb。 But after their initial encounter， Malachi is nothing like what she expected。 And with his help， Mina might be able to win them both the freedom she desperately dreams of。“I am a pawn in other peoples’ power games， destined to be moved from one side of the board to the other without any agency of my own。” For a book that starts with a definitely dubcon encounter， one of the main themes revolves around choice。 Most of Mina’s life has consisted of survival， always the weakest and most disposable in the room。 Her only worth to her father was being the vampire version of Doordash for Malachi。 Initially she’s convinced that Malachi’s attempts to give her choices are nothing but a ploy， though she can’t figure out what his endgame is。 But she soon realizes he’s as much a prisoner as she is。 As Mina and Malachi become entangled with two other bloodline vampires， Wolf and Rylan， the choices get harder and the consequences get worse。 Mina has to decide what she’s willing to sacrifice to meet her goals， and whether those goals have changed。“It’s so much easier when you don’t have a choice， and Malachi insists on giving me one， over and over again。 I kind of hate him for it。 I kind of love him for it， too。” You know the AO3 tag “plot what plot？”？ It’s not quite that， but there’s some pretty big plot holes， as well as deus （demon？） ex machina。 I mean， it’s hard to have a lot of tension in a book when the end game is right in the title。 What the book really focuses on is the relationships between the four of them。 To be clear， a lot of that relationship building is done through sex， lots of steamy sex， in every combination they can imagine。 At the start of the book， Mina is could be most kindly described as naive and terrified， but she has a spark of bravery that first Malachi and then the others bring out in her in very different ways。 Each of the vampires has history between them， history that Mina’s inadvertently stepped into and has to learn to deal with quickly。 Malachi’s protective and somewhat sweet， and it’s obvious he falls hard for her from nearly their first meeting。 He’s a steady， strong and a source of stability for her as the rest of her life keeps changing。 Wolf’s a loose chaos-spewing cannon， the vampire equivalent of the kind of person who starts （often violent） drama and then grabs the popcorn。 And Rylan’s the oldest vampire of the group， standoff-ish and cynical but secretly terrified to accept the relationship the other three are offering。 With four very different personalities， getting the polyam romance to work for all of them is something Mina struggles with。As for cons， since this book was originally three novellas， there’s several instances of repeated information between the books。 I wish this had been rewritten （or just edited a bit） as it was jarring to be reintroduced to the characters and plot points over and over。 The passage of time also felt a bit off。 For instance， It’s mentioned in passing that’s it weeks later， but nothing has measurably changed in terms of plot or relationship to even indicate that。 The vampire’s powers also were confusing to me， as they’d suddenly use them in a new or different way for no discernible reason。Overall， I’d give this 3。5 stars。 It’s an enjoyable and steamy read but not quite as good to me as her other work。I received an advance review copy of this book from NetGalley。 This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review。Content notes: （view spoiler）[death （including murder）， violence， blood （so much blood， all the blood）， dubcon， parental abuse （in the past）， imprisonment， pregnancy， vomiting， discussion of abortion （hide spoiler）] 。。。more

Thanks to the publisher & Netgalley for the complimentary ARC。 All opinions provided are my own。I think this is the steamiest vampire romance I’ve ever read？Imagine if you took a Kresley Cole’s Immortals After Dark vampire book， took out a bit of the worldbuilding intricacy & then added maybe 32 sex scenes （I’m exaggerating here ）—then you might have Katee Robert’s Court of the Vampire Queen。A poly MMMF romance between one half vampire， half human （a dhampir） & three stunning vampire men， COTVQ Thanks to the publisher & Netgalley for the complimentary ARC。 All opinions provided are my own。I think this is the steamiest vampire romance I’ve ever read？Imagine if you took a Kresley Cole’s Immortals After Dark vampire book， took out a bit of the worldbuilding intricacy & then added maybe 32 sex scenes （I’m exaggerating here ）—then you might have Katee Robert’s Court of the Vampire Queen。A poly MMMF romance between one half vampire， half human （a dhampir） & three stunning vampire men， COTVQ is stunningly， fantastically steamy & also makes frequent use of the bite = near orgasmic pleasure motif that can really sell a vampire romance for me 。This book kicks off when dhampir Mina is given against her will to vampire Malachi， who hasn’t been able to leave his home in decades。 She’s supposed to feed him & bed him， but he stuns her by setting some boundaries & being clear that he wants her consent & her to actually desire him before they proceed any farther sexually。Then the other vampires start showing up at his home one by one & things really get interesting。Not only is the steam in this one winning， so are each of the different personalities & Mina’s varying relationships with each vampire。 I love how Katee Robert shows that they get something unique from each other person but how they have something special as a whole。Be aware， there are lots of content warnings for this one that Katee Robert includes in a list at the beginning & a few repetitious moments。 （I thought I saw somewhere that this work was maybe published some other way & now it’s being republished but I haven’t been able to find that note again so ）。But there’s so much steam （have I mentioned that yet ;） ）， an interesting relationship arc as they all find out how to navigate this new relationship， & this fabulous sense of drama & atmosphere。 In short， it’s really fun， very bloody， & freaking hot。4。5⭐️。 Out 09/06。CWs: She’s bitten without her consent。 She sees men trying to drug her drink and then shortly after helps those men get murdered to feed her lovers。 Violence。 Murder。 Lots of other CWs—I would suggest checking out the author’s list。 。。。more

Thank you to Netgalley for the E-ARC of this book。 A dark and spicy MMMF vampire fantasy， with magic， mystery， secrets and a whole lot of steam。 This is not my first Katee Robert book and it certainly won't be the last。 I would definitely say this book is character driven， the plot was good， when it showed its face， not the best。。。but the romance and spice was definitely more prevalant。 There was A LOT OF SEX！ I always enjoy a reverse Harem， but this one was slightly different， in that the men a Thank you to Netgalley for the E-ARC of this book。 A dark and spicy MMMF vampire fantasy， with magic， mystery， secrets and a whole lot of steam。 This is not my first Katee Robert book and it certainly won't be the last。 I would definitely say this book is character driven， the plot was good， when it showed its face， not the best。。。but the romance and spice was definitely more prevalant。 There was A LOT OF SEX！ I always enjoy a reverse Harem， but this one was slightly different， in that the men also had intertwining history， romance and chemistry， which made the spice a whole lot of fun to read and the dynamics of the group interesting to see how they developed over time。 I do love a vampire novel and these vampires had bloodlines and magic linked to them through the bloodlines。 Other beings were mentioned along the way: demons， Seraphs， werewolves etc。 I wouldn't say there was anything particularly new or revolutionary the world building of the vampires。 I do have questions though: How are vampires always so rich and prepared for everything？ I need to research this。 There weren't really any characters in particular that I wanted to kill off， which is unusual for me。 I like a good villain I can hate。 I think it would have been more compelling if we had snippets of the past being shown （doesn't even have to graphic） it was alluded to and we were told by the min charcter why we should feel this way。 But I always feel that seeing some of these actions for ourselves gives us as the reader， more emotion and anger towards these characters。I was a little annoyed when information as had just read kept getting repeated between the acts， as if I hadn't just read act 1 and knew all the information the main character is now narrating and self monologuing。 But then it happens again in Act 3？ Was this three books that were previously separated and now put together as one？ I am confused， will need to research this！ I'm intrigued to see where this will go with more books in the future， I hope this isn't a standalone？！ 😱😂 but I'm hoping the angst is turned up a little and there is more focus on the plot。。。。I really hope I have a villain（s） that I am rooting to end brutally 🤗 if you know what I mean。 I'd recommend if you like vampires， magic， dark spicy books and reverse harem with some spice between the men as well 😉 A few tropes in here: enemies to lovers， forced proximity， broody males。。。etc。Trigger warnings at the beginning of the book stated: blood play， dubious concent， patricide， pregnancy， blood， gore， murder， explicit sex， vomiting （pregnancy）， discussion of abortion， abusive parent （father， historical， off page）， attempted sexual assault （alluded to， non-graphic）， and attempted drugging。 。。。more

I’m not rating this book。 I enjoyed Katee Roberts books， but this one just wasn’t for me。 Her spice is on point。 I just wanted more story。

I like my porn to have a little plot， and Court of the Vampire Queen was at least 90% vamp dick & 10% weakly written plot。 Don’t get me wrong the smut is fantastic， it’s Katee Robert after all， but it was a bit gratuitous even for her。Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for sending me an arc copy to read！

This was my first ever "why choose" romance and while I think it showed me that maybe that's not my favorite kind of romance book， this was really well written and had some really lovely character work。 We follow Mina who has just been basically sold by her father to a bloodline vampire。 From there honestly quite a lot of the plot is just sex or based around sex。 But lets be honest， that's kind of what you signed up for when you picked up this book right？ The author is very good about putting tr This was my first ever "why choose" romance and while I think it showed me that maybe that's not my favorite kind of romance book， this was really well written and had some really lovely character work。 We follow Mina who has just been basically sold by her father to a bloodline vampire。 From there honestly quite a lot of the plot is just sex or based around sex。 But lets be honest， that's kind of what you signed up for when you picked up this book right？ The author is very good about putting trigger warnings in the beginning of the book， please read them。 Nothing really made me uncomfortable and I felt very prepared for the darker elements of the books thanks to these warnings。 All and all this was a enjoyable book。 While it did cement for me that I have a line in the sand of just how much spice I'm willing to read in one book before it's too much for me personally， I do think that a lot of care is put into these characters and I found myself really coming to like each of the romantic partners in the book。 Thank you so much to Netgalley and to SOURCEBOOKS Casablanca for providing me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review。 It was a pleasure。 。。。more
