Publisher's summary

How many Blood will come to the vampire queen's call...and will they be able to protect her from the king?

For the first time in her adult life, Shara has plenty of money thanks to the Isador legacy - and she's not alone. Daire and Rik are devoted lovers, but they know other Blood are coming. Blood who may challenge Rik for the coveted alpha spot at her back. As her power grows, so does her hunger. But without fangs, she fears she'll never be the queen her Blood expect. More Blood means power struggles and complications, and she has no idea how to keep everyone happy. Worse, her dreams are quickly becoming something to fear.

Moving to establish her permanent nest, she can't stop dreaming of the king. A massive monster. Chained in darkness. Lost to madness. He roars with fury in her dreams, demanding his release. But is he the key to unraveling her own mysterious past - or the most dangerous threat of all?

Contains mature themes.

Great sequel to Queen Takes Knight 😍

I listened to Queen Takes King on audio and absolutely loved it!! I couldn't stop listening, needing to know what happened next ❤️. I had heard a lot about this series from various groups on Facebook but I am so glad I finally took the plunge and are listening to them! I will say I had to detract a star because the male narrator (Tristan) sometimes messed up his accents and said it as the wrong character. I think this could have been caught during the last review before it went live, but it didn't detract too much. It was in the 2nd half of the audiobook (I think its more apparent in the beginning of Book 3 to be honest). I thought Cassandra did a fantastic job and Tristan did well except for the issues with keeping the characters accents consistent. I mean, it's only to be harder as Shara gains more blood, so I totally get it.

In the second book in Their Vampire Queen we get to meet more Blood and see how Shara handles the King that she is destined to be with. I have to say I was worried about adding more Blood to her group and not liking all of them, but I am totally loving each and every one of them! Each has a flaw that you cant help but fall in love with. I really enjoyed reading Shara kicking butt each time she was confronted with an obstacle (and holy moly she sounds incredibly intimidating as her cobra). I can't wait to see how Rik and Shara break Mehen (I'm not gonna lie, I loved him being called Levi haha). The steam is off the chart! I will say about halfway through I was a little over how steamy it was/all the sex because it seemed like it wasn't moving the story along. Only took a couple hours to get back into the story and I feel back in love with it quickly!

I am already listening to Book 3 and can't wait to see where this story goes 😊. Can't wait for more M/M action as well, I love the little additions that Joely adds in each book. I love the guys are becoming a unit and not just in it for themselves. Great story, highly recommend.

🎧AudiobookObsession

I love this series!!!

I love me a good PNR but this is so much more. Add in a steamy Reverse Harem story line with a good amount of MMF thrown in and we have ourselves one steamy Plot! I have enjoyed this series greatly!

Cassandra and Tristan have been a pleasure to listen to. The narration is fantastic! good flow, great voices, reading that keeps you pulled in and entertained, great editing. I had zero complaints!

I would and have highly recommended this series~

Plot revolves around blood orgies

Not a bad thing at all. Taming the King had much to enjoy. Male narrator has out done himself with the variety of male voices increasing.

Amazing series

I love that Shara doesn’t let her men walk all over her. Just like in book 1, they do as she commands because she IS the queen. I enjoy the power balance between all the individuals especially how Rik is the alpha and all the guys look to him but don’t overstep. They give Shara the information she needs without coddling her or acting like she’s not powerful and I appreciate that.

I like that Shara took charge with the spy and didn’t take any crap because she had to protect her blood.

I’ve read another vampire series where the Queen was so powerful but she let people walk all over her. She also wasn’t so great at protecting her people because she was so kind. I love that Shara doesn’t take any crap from anyone who wants to threaten her or her people. She’s a bad a$$. I also enjoy that even though she’s the most important, I like the ménage in the story. When the guys are having sex in front of her, she’s still a part of it and wants to see. I know if it was something that she wasn’t into, they probably wouldn’t be into it either.
