A Kingdom of Venom and Vows

Stars and Shadows, Book 3

De: Holly Renee

Narrado por: Stella Hunter, J.F. Harding

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.

Feel good read! Easy listening and enjoyable

Feel good read! Easy listening and enjoyable story. If you are looking for a complicated storyline, this is not it. But good to read when you want something interesting, easy, spicy and romantic

almost reads like fanfiction

pretty linear story line, no major plot twists. character lack major depth and character repeat the same phrases often.

Great Series

I love all these books!! Great read through and through!! Don’t pass up these books!!

fine

decent read. feels like every other romance novel. I wish the romance book was more about the plot, but it really focuses on the characters who are bad at decision making. The final battle was poorly done so it felt like a lot of hype for nothing.

Felt a little Light..

I really enjoyed these books! I loved the characters, the unique magic system, and the brother-against-brother theme—it all had so much potential. The world itself was intriguing, and I found myself wanting to know more about how it worked.

That’s where my biggest frustration lies: I just wish there had been more. More world-building, more depth to the history and the magic, more of a well-developed timeline to anchor the story. The series had such strong foundations, but it never quite dug deep enough to fully deliver on them. Every event felt rushed and shortened to fit within the small book sizes.

Honestly, the three-book series felt like it could have been condensed into a single, more substantial novel—or maybe a tight duet. With richer development, it could have been truly epic. As it stands, it’s an enjoyable read, but it leaves you wishing the author had gone further with all the fantastic ideas they introduced.

Mate and Fate

Great story! I feel it should of ending with this book! I’ve already bought the next book just to see! But I hope it doesn’t ruin the series! Great story but I feel it’s been dragged! Still love the series though! Good read/listen!

Great audio

such a great series I have loved this world so much. the narrators really brought it to life

Fantastic!

Loved this series! Great story, FANTASTIC narration and man did she cram as much spice into this last part as she could!

emotional, action-packed finale!

"I have searched for you through a thousand lifetimes, princess, and I will search for you through a thousand more."

Book 3 delivers an emotional, action-packed finale to the Stars and Shadows series. Adara endures torment as a pawn in a dangerous royal game, while Evren fights to save her. With love, loyalty, and sacrifice at its core, this is a gripping conclusion fans will adore. 🖤
