Dawn of the Cursed Queen: Deluxe Special Edition (Gods and Monsters)
Amber V. Nicole
by Caroline Peckham
In a world where gods manipulate mortal lives like pawns on a chessboard, the stakes for survival have never been higher. Callie finds her autonomy stripped away, shackled by a divine mark that binds her to her greatest enemy. Caught between a slayer’s vow and the cruel machinations of a vengeful deity, she struggles to protect her sister while navigating a path that seems destined for ruin.
Meanwhile, Montana faces the bitter aftermath of her choices. Though she has finally grasped the liberty she long craved, the pull of the dangerous past—and the monster she abandoned—demands her return. As a looming, inescapable threat gathers on the horizon, she realizes that fleeing to a distant land may be a futile dream.
The games of the gods are escalating, and the shadows are closing in. This installment plunges deeper into a brutal, war-torn reality where vampires are savage predators rather than romanticized figures. The tension between enemies-to-lovers dynamics and the relentless supernatural peril creates a high-octane atmosphere of desperation.
With their fates intertwined by divine interference, Callie and Montana must decide if they are willing to defy the heavens themselves to secure their freedom.
Teree SuttonOh these twisted sisters..
".. and their cliffhangers! They leave me ravenous for more yet always leave me full of angst with their notorious cliffhangers! Eagerly awaiting the next book in this remade series. The characters feel real. The storyline sucks you in. The alpha-hole men make you want to scream in frustration and moan with need from page to page. Those nasty, petty little gods! I hope they get their just desserts! These authors are very talented, but kind of evil. The worlds & characters they create are amazing & unforgettable. Each story is a rollercoaster ride of emotions from laughter to anger. I’m glad I found this series of theirs. It’s definitely worth the read. ["

Kindle Customerlove it…mostly
"If you have read the previous Age of Vampires books, just know that book4 is every bit as good as all the rest. Even so, in all honesty, the plot twist at the end is so predictable, it was kind of disappointing. In addition to that, i feel like it’s starting to get a little cliche (based on the plot twist at the end), considering literally almost every other vampire series has literally the exact same scene/event. Which, don’t get me wrong, that’s fine, because it was honestly bound to happen, but I was hoping it wouldn’t be as soon in the series, because now I feel like the rest of the series will just be that much more predictable. So, just because of that, I might need a little convincing to read the next book. But don’t get me wrong, the book overall is AMAZING, and I will always love this series. But I might just stop here, I don’t know. ["

A. CornellCouldn't put down, the drama continues with the MCs and the deathly fights begin
"Wrathful Mortals KU, $6.99, 371 pgs ****.* 4/22/24 Erik, Montana, Julius, Magnar, Callie & Fabian 4.5 stars. The two Gods, Idun and Andvari continued their cruel games with our MC’s forcing marriage and false connections to create more hate between them. Callie and Montana were kept away from Eric and Fabian, but their god created vows kept them all in turmoil. Callie continued her dream visions even with Fabian to try to find out who he really was before the curse of Andvari turned him into a vampire. Montana never lost her love for Erik and tried so desperately to make the others understand that Erik was cheated from his human life by Andvari and how his regrets from that curse had led him in ways he tried to fight against the curse for his thousand years of being a vampire. There was so many hurtful things said between the 4 humans, it was truly amazing how they ever kept any humanity at all. Montana was desperate to solve the prophecy. She and Callie tried to come together finally, to take the prophecy and decipher it one line at a time. They thought they may have answered the first two, but no one could be sure it was correct. They were determined to keep trying so this thousand-year feud could be stopped, and they would all live to see the end of the curse. The ending was a fight to end all fights between the males, the twins and the gods controlling all their actions. Callie had the only weapon that could possibly help the fatal situation they were all in.. Again, this book was all encompassing and very hard to put down I think one of the main reasons that I love this series is because it’s giving me all my desire of having the same characters in every book and not hopping around to new. I feel like I am actually getting a full and amazing story with this series and can’t wait to read them all. ["
