Stone Cold Queen

Sick Boys Series, Book 2

By: Lucy Smoke

Narrated by: J.F. Harding, Elizabeth Russell

Length: 12 hrs and 3 mins

Publisher's Summary

Rule No. 2: Show no fear.

They're vile and twisted.

The only thing more f--ked up than the Sick Boys is me, and I'm ready to show them.

The Sick Boys are hiding something from me. They want to pretend like I didn't kill my rapist and they didn't help. But we're not ordinary college students, that much has become clear to me, and I'm growing tired of all of the lies and secrets.

Their masks are cracking, and, finally, I'm starting to see the grotesque reality underneath. It's far darker than I ever expected, and it's not enough. They know everything about me, so now it's my turn. I fear nothing. Not them. Not the man that I killed or the people who set me up.

Fear is for the weak, and I, Avalon Manning, am anything but.

Contains mature themes.

Not as good as the 1st book....

3.5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Ok so Stone Cold Queen wasn’t as good as Pretty Little Savage In my opinion. This book was a little more far fetched and I truly can’t believe I’m going to say this, because when I say I love a strong FMC.. I mean it! I even look for that when picking a book to read…so to say this out loud is painful, but Avalon’s character is a little overboard with being a bad @$#! It’s just over the top too much. There’s nothing feminine about her, no softness to her, no personality and she’s actually starting to annoy me. Just Not liking her much in this book..

Dean hasn’t gotten any better either. Still a pansy when it comes to Avalon. I’m actually starting to like Abel the most. Braxton, I’m very curious about and Luc well I want more of him too…

Dean is just not holding up in my eyes. Yes I love his dirty talking and oh boy his Alphaness in the bedroom is so hot, but still there’s just something missing… I’m not feeling him.

Overall I’m still enjoying this series and I will continue listening/reading because I seriously need to know who is behind all this choas!

Audiobook Review: I have Listened to J.F. Harding in the past and I’m starting to really enjoy his narrating. Elizabeth Russell I’ve only listen to one other time And I find her voice very enjoyable to listen to. Therefore I give them both 4 stars.

Original review on Goodreads..

Holding steady in book 2…

The story continues to be compelling.

My hope is there’ll be a moment where Ava relents at least a little and exhibits some vulnerability when disagreeing with Dean and the boys.

There was a moment about 3/4 way through where I couldn’t sustain the suspension of disbelief. It became a little too much to believe Dean would allow Ava to once again punch him in the face or stomach without even a verbal protest.

Other than this, it was great.

Take a chance

I was hesitant to purchase given length of novel & new to me author but both in the series thus far are FANTASTIC! The storyline is not one I’ve heard and it is dark, hot, and suspenseful. JF Harding is a top choice narrator for me but both nailed their characters. Looking forward to more :)

pretty darn good!

I struggled with Avalon a bit, I get that she is a strong character and likes to makes her own decisions but she seems to get herself into trouble because of it. she is a girl with a bad temper. the story overall is good.

Love this story the narration not as much

I love the story ..not so much that being said I am a super fan of the dual narration style of audio books.

Avalon’s acceptance

Stone cold Queen is a second part or the ”sick boys” series. Dark and twisted story continues, violence and love main topics.

In this book Avalon accepts love, even if she is scared and tries to cope with her past and solving the secrets ahead.

This is a sequel, so listen Pretty Little Savage first. Also be warned that this is violent story, there are triggers: coping with rape and torture.

good but

I like this series but I don't get why such a strong "savage" girl could be so naive! why she keeps running from the only people who protect her right into a set up! Just annoying @

Yes Queen!!!

Loved it. Wish audio 3 & 4 were already out!! Duel narrative was spot on and kept me engaged. Definitely worth the credit!!

stone cold

I read/listened to this book, and wow it will suck you right in.
The mystery surrounding who is after Avalon is seriously intense. You don't know who to trust and who is out to get her. The sick boys may have her back....but will she let them

Pretty good, a lot of excess material. NO spoilers

I really enjoyed the first book and this one was pretty good but not as good as the first. there was, in my opinion, way too much I hate you I love you I hate you I love you between Dean and Ava. I think it could have been like an hour shorter. good ending, I'll probably listen to the next one. Also can we PLEASE get a spinoff about Brax??

So many unanswered questions ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This story is action-packed! It's nice to see the chemistry grow between the main characters. The story has betrayal, lust, want and need. Even though it is book 2 there are still no real answers and I'm hoping the next book is going to shed some light on what the hell is going on and who is behind it.

I do recommend this book! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

love it

amazing book can't stop listen 😍 can't wait for next one I can honestly say you won't regret listen to these books
