Publisher's summary

Alexis Ravenel. Vengeful. Virtuous. Victorious queen? 

The Storm King is the ultimate evil. 

He’s abused and tortured innocent citizens. He’s murdered people my princes and I love and care about. And he’s about to get what’s coming to him.

But first, we must save Blackwood Kingdom from international war. Fae, sirens, and harpies are coming to destroy us, and short of a divine intervention, I’m not sure how we’re going to survive it. Our only hope is amassing enough allies to give us a fighting chance.

If we can somehow pull a miracle out of thin air, and actually live long enough to face the wicked king, then I swear I will fulfill the destiny granted to me the moment I received my powers.

I will kill the king, even if it’s the last thing I ever do!

Perfect Storms is the final book in the Storms of Blackwood series - a fast burn, RH, paranormal romance. 18+.

Loved the previous books..

But this one fell a little flat for me! There were 3 books making you hate the king and cringe at all he did! I mean he was down right horrid. Very...EWW! But then this book just...left me unsatisfied with the ending!

So for Alexis, the MFC I don’t know what is was, but she annoyed me so much in the book it was distracting. She kind of made me tell her to shut up many times. Real self centered and a little attention starved. I feel like she lost who she was in the beginning and she didn’t seem genuine! The relationships seemed forced and it felt like she was trying to hard to come across as a bad@$$ instead of just being true to herself. I don’t know what it was.

I feel like I still have unanswered questions or like there was a lot that was not touched on again. But I loved the first few books. This one was a miss and I’m a little bummed because I was really looking forward to the conclusion.

Narration was on point as always with Vanessa!! She is a goddess!!!

Utter disappointing ending

This book was well narrated. I absolutely loved the first 3 books in this series. I seriously couldn’t get enough. The entire series was exciting, intriguing, sexy...and then the last book just fell flat. It felt like the author was trying to do too many things and the book was all over the place. Relationships between the main characters lost their zest. Too many unanswered questions, including Crisson’s parentage. And although not every story ends tied up in a perfect bow, there’s a finality, an ending, closure. This book left things wide open. You didn’t leave the story behind with a sense of satisfaction in knowing the main characters’ true happily ever after finally arrived. So disappointed and feel like I ultimately wasted my time. Not worth the money/credits x 4 for such a lackluster so-called “finish”.

Good Series

This is a very good series. I wish the male narrator had more to do with it all. Also it sounds like there should be more considering the epilog.

A really good listen with a few small complaints

I actually really loved these characters and this story line. It made me laugh out loud at certain things and even tear up when the boys moms died. By the end of the story it did feel slightly rushed almost as if the writer was working on a deadline. But all in all it was a good series. The Vanessa Moyen was a slightly different story. There were times I had to in and slow down the reading because it was like she was just reading as fast as she could. All in all it was worth the credit though.

Nail biter!

Ohh I love The Storm Princess and the Princes. The conclusion of this series was awesome. This story was epic. It was a legit nail biter! The narrators did a fabulous job and did not disappoint. I’m looking forward to the Academy of the Gods!! Yay!!
I received a free copy of this audiobook, and I’m reviewing it voluntarily.

What a fun and surprising series!

This is the fourth and final book in the Storms of Blackwood series. If you have not read the previous books, please do so, starting with book 1.

There is a lot going on in this book! Alexis and the Storms are facing so much at once! There were a lot of twists and turns I did not see coming. Zeus also had a bigger part in the conclusion than I expected.

Narration was excellent and brought the story to life. It is always amazing when we have a male and female narrator.

There were a lot of ups and downs in this series but the conclusion was very unique and different than what I was expecting. Elle delivered a HEA and more.

Amazing finish

Now that was a finally! Most books similar to this would have ended with a baby as a HEA but not this one! I personally loved the HEA that did happen, and no I'm not going to give it away. I loved the series and the narrators did wonderful work and made it even better. I look forward to seeing what's next from the author

Catch Book 3.5 Snow Storms 1st!

Ok, so there is a novella on KU that you REALLY need to go read before listening to this or you will MISS Alexis and Criss’ first time together, as well as a handful of other things that won’t make sense because you’re gonna be rewinding, going… wait? Did I fall asleep and miss it????

After that… it’s game on! If you’re still here for book 4, you know what to expect and it’s time to end this this! More laughs, more smexy times and time for that frackus to get what’s due him!

A HEA

I like how the book was left open for the possibility of a new series with these characters.

Storytelling fell off a bit for me

I couldn't get into the flow of this story. It felt more like the scenes were glued together rather than a well thought out storyline. Several times, I thought I had missed something and had to re-listen to parts to follow the leaps.

love it

story is amazing and I love the voice she very good 👍
will listenin again

Ending?

Wow this ending to the Storm series has you craving a spin off in your life! You get some closure, and some OMG moments with of course some sexy time!

Perfect Ending

I really enjoyed this series. It had just the right amount of drama and comedy and heat. I liked the ending it left me smiling! Each character was neatly tied up without it being cheesy. I hope there’s a spin off series in this world as the epilogue foreshadowed!

Also, beer pong! Love it!

Perfect Storms

OMG! This series is everything you need. It has a hilarious kickass FMC, and six sexy Demi-Gods. What more could one ask for? Just when I thought it was finally going to end in sunshine and rainbows for the Storms, I was wrong. It was a great ending just a total shock twist form left field. Highly recommend if you enjoy PNR RH, and the amazing Vanessa Moyen!

Exciting story

This book has a sad beginning carried on from the end of the last book. It quickly draws you in with lots of beautifully descriptive scenes and a thrilling storyline. There are quite a few sex and several grizzly revenge scenes throughout this book. It is a brilliant finale to this super fun and exciting series that I thoroughly enjoyed listening to. The narrator has been consistently amazing for this entire series making this a joy to listen to.

Love love love

I received a free audio copy of this book directly from the author for an honest review.

OMG!! The end! There’s one thing I wasn’t a huge fan of but that last bit just omg!! I can’t even give spoilers argh!! I just have loved this series so much. I love the characters, the story, and basically everything about this. I can’t big this series up enough. Love love love! ❤️

Definitely recommend this series!

This was a great series and Perfect Storms wrapped it up nicely. HEA included but you'll be on the edge of your seat while the group gets there! If you haven't checked it out already, you need to.

great final

I only have one thing to say about the final book, the kings fate makes me very happy. i truly enjoyed the series. i would listen to them again.

great books

really appreciate and enjoy the series of books not for anyone who prudish slot of sexy parts to it but good story lines as well glad king got what he deserved at the end hope for more books in the future
