Summary

I entered into a bargain—choosing my mate over my freedom。 But I underestimated the crowned prince who took me。 His touch like venom。 His vengeance lethal。 He craves a power I no longer hold, and he’ll sacrifice every part of me until he gets it。 But I don’t belong to him。 I belong to his brother。 His brother who will come for me, consequences be damned。 My fate is entangled between two princes—one who craves my power, the other who covets me—and I have more to lose than I ever imagined。 War rages in a game between queens, and I have become their pawn。 But I will fight for my life, for my mate, and he will raze kingdoms to get me back。

A fantastic end to a captivating trilogy!!"They thought I was their savior, but I would be no such thing。 I would be their destruction。"Sooo good, so so good。 After the brutal ending of Blood and Betrayal I could start Venom and Vows fast enough, Evren and Adara have captured my heart and I needed to know what was coming next, and I was not disappointed。A fast paced read that has you turning the pages as fast as you can, and keeps you perched on the edge of your seat and I've loved every minute A fantastic end to a captivating trilogy!!"They thought I was their savior, but I would be no such thing。 I would be their destruction。"Sooo good, so so good。 After the brutal ending of Blood and Betrayal I could start Venom and Vows fast enough, Evren and Adara have captured my heart and I needed to know what was coming next, and I was not disappointed。A fast paced read that has you turning the pages as fast as you can, and keeps you perched on the edge of your seat and I've loved every minute of it!!"I have searched for you through a thousand lifetimes, Princess, and I will search for you through a thousand more"Absolutely fantastic, highly recommend!!!! 。。。more

Such an amazing ending to this awesome trilogy。It was a great read。 Really enjoyed reading and witnessing these amazing characters evolve in all 3 books。Holly thanks for the opportunity of reading this amazing ARC。

Not every fantasy romance needs to be an intricate, high fantasy epic。 But this series is just *bad*。 Read if you like: - Poor writing- Being told everything rather than shown - Flimsy magic systems - Non-existent world-building- Maddeningly repititious storytelling and writing (here's just one example。。。。) "She hadn’t thought of the consequences when she had given me her magic without taking a moment to think of what the consequences would be。" If these hadn't been in KU and I had to pay for th Not every fantasy romance needs to be an intricate, high fantasy epic。 But this series is just *bad*。 Read if you like: - Poor writing- Being told everything rather than shown - Flimsy magic systems - Non-existent world-building- Maddeningly repititious storytelling and writing (here's just one example。。。。) "She hadn’t thought of the consequences when she had given me her magic without taking a moment to think of what the consequences would be。" If these hadn't been in KU and I had to pay for them I would have stopped reading after the first book。 I kept up with the series at first out of curiosity - would it improve (it didn't) - and then because i'd 'gotten this far'。 I'm so done with this series that I even started skimming the spicy scenes, and the spice was one of the redeeming factors in books 1 & 2。  Don't even get me started on the completely out of the blue, completely unnessesary chapter we get from a side character's pov of him having sex with another side character。 WHY。 Save it for their own book。 Which leads me on to stating what is probably obvious, I definitely won't be continuing with the series as it switches protagonists for future releases。 。。。more

Good end to the trilogyThis third installment of the series shook things up a bit with having multiple narrators and I’m glad it did。 I think the first two books really laid the groundwork for introducing the world and its characters through Adara’s perspective since she was also being introduced to everyone and everything at the same time the readers were。 It makes sense that even though Evren and Adara were separated for a period of time in the second book, we still only got her story because Good end to the trilogyThis third installment of the series shook things up a bit with having multiple narrators and I’m glad it did。 I think the first two books really laid the groundwork for introducing the world and its characters through Adara’s perspective since she was also being introduced to everyone and everything at the same time the readers were。 It makes sense that even though Evren and Adara were separated for a period of time in the second book, we still only got her story because the readers needed to see the Blood Kingdom and its people rather be subjected to the torture Evren was receiving in the Fae Kingdom。 There was one point of view that we got from a character that seemed fairly pointless at first but I think now that it added just a bit of foreshadowing for later content。 The spice is still there (as if there was any doubt) and I would bet there’s a bit more in this one and it’s more intense I think (though I skimmed through it since it’s not my cup of tea)。 The plot and character dynamics outside of the “bedroom” (or wherever they did the deed) kept me reading the series even though the spice level heavily deterred me。 The ending seemed fairly rushed but there bits of it that heavily contributed to this happily ever after ending。 3。75/5 stars 。。。more

Utterly speechless, completely mind blowing in the best ways possible , glued to the edge of my seat in anticipation of what would happen from one second to the next , heart beating out of my chest 。 Those are things。 I felt throughout this entire trilogy。 Book # 1 A Kingdom Of Stars And Shadows #2 A Kingdom Of Blood And Betrayal and now the final installment A Kingdom Of Venom And Vows 。 Each book better then the one before it 。 I am not typically someone who enjoys reading family fantasy roman Utterly speechless, completely mind blowing in the best ways possible , glued to the edge of my seat in anticipation of what would happen from one second to the next , heart beating out of my chest 。 Those are things。 I felt throughout this entire trilogy。 Book # 1 A Kingdom Of Stars And Shadows #2 A Kingdom Of Blood And Betrayal and now the final installment A Kingdom Of Venom And Vows 。 Each book better then the one before it 。 I am not typically someone who enjoys reading family fantasy romances or supernatural romances at all but Holly’s books are definitely the exception for me 。 She is not only so freaking talented and a true queen when it comes to writing well pretty much any trope in romance。 But she also has this amazing gift of writing the most captivating, unique and multi layered characters you simply cannot stop yourself from falling in love with 。 And the storylines she writes - they grab onto all your emotions so quickly and pull at your heartstrings so completely you find yourself tumbling headfirst into journeys unlike you’ve ever been on before 。 Non stop action, dark , raw , gritty and emotional, deadly fae forbidden love , fated mates , betrayal, angst , heartbreaking and heartfelt, twists and turns, tragedy, death blood shed , secrets , drama , steam , awesome world building, second chances, suspense, passion, intrigue, swoon worthy alphas and a strong kickass , independent and feisty heroine 。 It has it all in spades 。 It’s a must read , a masterpiece 。。。more

the endSo ends a trilogy。 This is a romance fantasy heavy on the spice。 Like heavy。 The spice comes first then the story。

Did not live up to the first 2 This felt like an extended epilogue rather than a final book in a series。 Not much happened and it all happened kind of easily。 I would have liked more between her and the dad as well considering she sacrificed herself for him in book 2。

I binged the other two in preparation for this one and it ended up being my FAVORITE。 The spice was a lot more prevalent but you can still skip the scenes for the storyline。 Without giving too much away since it’s release day, I will say that watching Evren and Adara grow together and as individuals was incredible。 Seeing her find her strength while he rose to the challenge to save his mate was amazing。 There was just so much in here that had me gripped。 I couldn’t put it down。 And I am so sad i I binged the other two in preparation for this one and it ended up being my FAVORITE。 The spice was a lot more prevalent but you can still skip the scenes for the storyline。 Without giving too much away since it’s release day, I will say that watching Evren and Adara grow together and as individuals was incredible。 Seeing her find her strength while he rose to the challenge to save his mate was amazing。 There was just so much in here that had me gripped。 I couldn’t put it down。 And I am so sad it’s over。 。。。more

I'm sorry, but was there a plot?

Well, this totally did what I expected and I am not surprised in the least, nor will I continue to find out what happens with the character POV switch and a focus on a new couple。 This definitely took the spice over plot or character development route, and it just wasn't something I was interested in, especially as the spicy scenes themselves were rather bland and repetitive。 Well, this totally did what I expected and I am not surprised in the least, nor will I continue to find out what happens with the character POV switch and a focus on a new couple。 This definitely took the spice over plot or character development route, and it just wasn't something I was interested in, especially as the spicy scenes themselves were rather bland and repetitive。 。。。more

I love when a series gets completed! This book was a solid conclusion to the trilogy and while it satisfied everything I wanted to see wrapped up I love that there are some threads that could be pulled for side characters to have future stories (maybe? Please?!)。I loved book 1 for the tension and yearning Adara and Evren had to face with their forbidden desires。 That library scene will be a top 5 🌶️ scene for me forever - it was so unique and well done!

Book 2 fell a little flat for me because I’m not a fan of training sequences and I was disappointed the Blood Queen became more of a background character - I think she could have had a larger role to play and a vamp queen could have been someone really cool/gray to explore。 Despite that, I still enjoyed the sequel (most sequels in the last year have been huuuge letdowns for me so it was still one of the better sequels I read) and was so excited to see where this book would go!Book 2 had an amazing cliffhanger and Venom and Vows picks up right where we left off。 The prologue was not a POV I was expecting and when I realized what was happening I had *chills* it was so disturbing and well done! The first 40% of the book is pretty dark so please check CW from the author! Gavril was a great villain and his choices were sometimes surprising。 The finale delivered:⭐️ Found family⭐️Spice with praise (thank you Holly Renee 😭❤️)⭐️Touch her and 💀 ⭐️New magic ⭐️War⭐️New kingdoms and creatures Adara really builds in confidence and her power - I loved her transformation and conviction in who she is, who Evren is to her and what her family/home finally will be。 I love this romantasy series and will continue to recommend it!A Kingdom of Stars and Shadows ★ ★ ★ ★ ★A Kingdom of Blood and Betrayal ★ ★ ★。5A Kingdom of Venom and Vows ★ ★ ★ ★Thank you to the author for providing me with an e-arc。 。。。more

It genuinely hurts me to leave low star reviews。 But where was the plot。 Honestly felt rushed。 I’m all for the “you’re mine” and the possessiveness of a alpha male but this was just so repetitive and one big eye role 🤷🏼‍♀️ still love evren but this was just…。 blah 🥲

A Kingdom of Venom and Vows is the third book in the Stars and Shadows series。 A steamy fantasy romance with fae and vampyres!As I always say, Holy Renee describes feelings perfectly! I also enjoy the dialogues between the characters。 They are witty and make me laugh。 Evren has a dirty mouth and I think that is why we all like him so much。 He is the master of dirty talking。 Adara still remains a strong and bold heroine and she evolves alongside her mate。 I haven't often met the friendship trope A Kingdom of Venom and Vows is the third book in the Stars and Shadows series。 A steamy fantasy romance with fae and vampyres!As I always say, Holy Renee describes feelings perfectly! I also enjoy the dialogues between the characters。 They are witty and make me laugh。 Evren has a dirty mouth and I think that is why we all like him so much。 He is the master of dirty talking。 Adara still remains a strong and bold heroine and she evolves alongside her mate。 I haven't often met the friendship trope in a book, but I couldn't imagine it any better! Adara and Thalia bond page by page and I ame in awe of their friendship。 True friends with love and devotion。 I think this is my favourite part of the book。I love Holly's writing style and her imagination thrills me, but I think that this book has some holes in its plot and I'll explain you exactly what I mean。 (view spoiler)[First of all, as much as I anticipated the sex scenes between Adara and Evren they were too many。 I would prefer less sex scenes and more battle scenes。 We never learnt what happened when they imprisoned Evren and I think it would be nice to have his POV of those moments。 Gavril is presented as the pure evil, but he doesn't really harm Adara physically。 Neither Queen Kaida did。 (although these happened in the second book) Gavril killed Adara's mother。 An eye for an eye, as he said。 And that was expected and a really good part of the plot (technically speaking)。 But, Adara doesn't mourn her mother。 She has sex。 I was expecting to read more about her feelings, her loss。 I expected to see her spending more time with her father and maybe recalling some family memories。 It was like she didn't care for anything else, when she should。Queen Veda is presented as a strong and powerful queen, but all we see in the third book is a silent queen。 She never speaks, she lets Evren and Adara handle things。 I know why she does that, but she appears like a puppet, like she is decorative。 I really wanted to know her and see how gracious and badass she is。Then there are the preparations for war。 Zero preparations, because the main characters were locked in the bedroom again。 And it didn't feel "right"。 They were facing a great danger, their people's lives were more important than them having some bonding time together。And the war wasn't even a war。 It seemed to happen in just half an hour。 Only one chapter about what we were waiting since the beginning。 Because we knew that the war was to come。 We didn't read about what happened in each party。 What happened to the front line or to the Old Fae's army? What really happened with Gavril's front line? What magic did he use and how? Evren was defeated sooo easily。 But Gavril, who was supposed to be so powerful, was defeated even easier。 And the worst part for me was Jorah's death。 I get it that always has to die a character we care about, but how did he die and who killed him? He deserved better。 And while I'm at it, what happened between Jorah-Thalia-Sorin? I had a feeling that there was something the author didn't tell us and we never learnt their secret。I liked the Nymphs and the forest's creatures that joined the battle。 But why did the Nymph call Adara witch in the first book and then at the second referred to her as her Queen? We also should have a story about that。 And more about the Old Fae。 I liked the epilogue and how Queen Veda wanted both her son and his wife to rule her beloved kingdom。 And I am happy to know that more books are coming and maybe we'll read more about the Old Fae! (hide spoiler)]In a few words, I was invested in this story and it had so much potential for me。 My expectations were high and that's why I expected more。 But it is a good book。 It just needed some extra scenes。 Holly, thank you for creating this world and thank you for creating Evren。 You are doing great! We just want some more info about new characters。 I'm writing all these with love in my heart and I hope it won't upset you。 You are wonderful! 。。。more

Ugh, I'm so sad that Adara and Evren's story is over!! But at the same time, I'm thrilled with this conclusion to the series。 Adara's strength really gets tested in this book and we can also see the depth of Gavril's madness。 He is well and truly sick。 Evren is as amazing as we always envisioned and wanted him to be and his loyalty and devotion to Adara is perfection。 We get every box ticked off in terms of what we need to see; the war, Gavril, the kingdoms, all of it。 And then some!

What an epic conclusion to this trilogy!After that cliffhanger in book 2 I was so excited to see how Evren and Adara’s story would end!

I’m so sad this trilogy is over。 I fell in love with Evren from the moment we met him in AKOSAS and tbh my love for his character has only grown。 Also… WE FINALLY GET EVREN POVs 👏🏼 while I love the first 2 books, I’ve been waiting to get into Evren’s head。 After the cliffhanger in book 2, I’m SO thankful we got his POV here。 The spice is delicious and Evren’s filthy mouth has just gotten better and better。 I will never get enough of that man。 The ending felt a little rushed。 There was so much bu I’m so sad this trilogy is over。 I fell in love with Evren from the moment we met him in AKOSAS and tbh my love for his character has only grown。 Also… WE FINALLY GET EVREN POVs 👏🏼 while I love the first 2 books, I’ve been waiting to get into Evren’s head。 After the cliffhanger in book 2, I’m SO thankful we got his POV here。 The spice is delicious and Evren’s filthy mouth has just gotten better and better。 I will never get enough of that man。 The ending felt a little rushed。 There was so much build up to this war and fulfilling the prophecy, then it was just kind of over。 The nature of this books is that they’re fast-paced and not super long, but I wanted just a little more。 All in all though, this was a solid conclusion to this trilogy。 ALSO Holly casually decided to drop that there will be more books in the Stars and Shadows world??? I can’t wait。 Tropes/Highlights:- Fated Mates- Magic, Vampyres, Fae- Touch her and 💀- Morally grey MMC- Prophecy⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️。25/5🌶️🌶️🌶️。5/5I received this as an ARC and this is my honest opinion。 。。。more
