Happy release day to This Vicious Dream! And a huge thank you to Stacia Stark for the eARC!
After devouring the Kingdom of Lies series, I was SO ready for this bookβand it absolutely delivered. From the first page, I was pulled straight into the frenzy (and I never wanted to leave). The world, the stakes, the tension... it was everything.
Madinia and Calysian?? Iβm obsessed. Their story is full of grief, longing, power struggles, and that slow-burn intensity I live for. The angst?? Immaculate. The chemistry?? Off the charts. And the ending?? Iβm screaming. HOW am I supposed to wait for the next book?
Tropes youβll love:
π€π½ Enemies to reluctant allies to something so much more
ππ½ Forced proximity (aka peak tension)
π Morally grey, sharp-edged hero with a heart (maybe?)
πͺπ½ Strong, stubborn heroine whoβs been through it
π One horse. Yes, really.
π§¨A cliffhanger that hurts in the best way.
If you love your fantasy with high stakes, dark secrets, and banter that cuts like a bladeβadd this to your TBR immediately, but don't forget to read the Kingdom of Lies before this. Hey, you won't regret it, trust me.
