Princesses are expected to smile, hold their tongues, and stay in the shadows...but not this princess.

Becoming a vampire is not the debutante party I'd hoped for. I'm being hunted by my enemies and cast aside by my friends.

The night court runs on betrayals and secrets. As its newest, sparkling addition, I can't trust anyone.

Especially not them.

Alec, the arrogant assassin-turned-bodyguard who mocks me with his feline grace and sexy smirks.

Leo, the addictive human who swore his life to me for all the wrong reasons.

And Sebastian, the childhood bully who broke my heart.

I can't fall for any of them. I have to fulfill my duty to my family and marry someone I've never met, but in the face of temptation, how could I resist something so forbidden?

Queen of Ashes and Scars is book 2 in a fast-paced, sizzling fantasy romance duet set in the deadly Delacroix Night court. You’ll love this story if you like sexy vampire bites, enemies-to-lovers, and heroes who love to share.

Anya J Cosgrove lives in Québec with her husband, her beautiful son, and two mischievous cats. She works as a veterinarian by day. She’s a travel and Disney junkie and is passionate about her favorite paranormal series.

What would Buffy do? Kick ass!

Queen of Ashes and Scars (Throne of Shadows #2) by Anya J. Cosgrove Review

Queen of Ashes and Scars: A Reverse Harem Fantasy Romance by Anya J Cosgrove
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

QUEEN OF ASHES AND SCARS took place where book one, PRINCSS OF THORNS AND RUIN left off. Princess Arielle Delacroix’s brother was murdered, making her the next in line for succession. However, someone is out to exterminate the Delacroix line. Her bodyguard/assassin Alec Beaumont, her human servant Leo Callas, and the angel Keenan helps her escape her pending wedding. Afterward with the help of her childhood bully Sebastian Chastain they set out to find out who is plotting against Arielle and make sure she claims the throne.

QUEEN OF ASHES AND SCARS is a fast-paced read. It is full of action and twists. Simultaneously, the men in Arielle’s life learn to live with sharing her. I would have liked the story to go on a little longer. I feel like there is more to be told with Leo. Unless he is getting his own book, which I would read. I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book.

A grumpy human servant.

An arrogant bodyguard.

The scoundrel that broke my heart…

Secrets and betrayals rule the hypnotic court of shadows.

A proper vampire princess shouldn’t think so much about blood, but how can I resist the pull of Leo's scent or the warmth of his tanned skin? My new servant has sworn his life to me, but he’s quiet and full of secrets.

Alec Beaumont simply boils my blood every time he opens his damn beautiful mouth, and Sebastian Chastain is as cruel and calculating as the day he set fire to my dress.

I can’t fall for any of them, forced to marry whoever my brother will choose for me, but is duty reason enough to betray my own heart?

I’m a Delacroix. We rule or die.

There’s nothing to compromise.

Princess of Thorns and Ruin is book 1 in a fast-paced, sizzling romance duet set in the deadly Delacroix night court. You’ll love this story if you like sexy vampire bites, enemies-to-lovers relationships, and heroes who love to share. In this series, the heroine doesn't have to choose just one.

This duet is set in the same world as Magnetic and Shadow Bound, but it stands alone. Downton Abbey meets House of Dragons. Pick up your steaming-hot copy now!
