Beasts of the Briar, Book 3

De: Elizabeth Helen

Narrado por: Stefanie Kay, Robert Hatchet

I’ve found a new home and fallen in love with four cursed fae princes. But everything could be taken from me in an instant. If I’m to save the Enchanted Vale and the High Princes, this rose is going to need to grow thorns.

Being a part of the fae is wonderful. Except that the enchanted castle I live in is falling apart, one of my mates wants to give up his magic for good, the other one seems to be hiding something from me, and the two cursed fae princes I’m in love with still need to find their actual mates. Oh, and the villainous Prince of Thorns keeps trying to kiss me. And I kind of want him to.

When whispers of war spread from the Spring Realm, we find ourselves on a knife’s edge, trying to prevent a betrayal that could tear the realms—and my princes—apart. A vicious enemy from the Below will stop at nothing to kill me and claim Spring for herself. And Ezryn’s own brother has turned against him, claiming the Spring throne for himself. Allies become enemies, and enemies become allies.

Now, more than ever, I’ll need to light a way for my princes and help Ezryn, the High Prince of Spring, take back his throne. I won’t let him lose himself to the darkness… unless I lose myself first.

Wow! Just wow!

This series is incredible! Everytime I think they have it figured out something else happens!! This one made me cry ...prince Ezran and his curse.
. practically broke me. I can't wait for the next book!

OKAY... WTF JUST HAPPENED?!

First off, love the series I think it's entertaining, sexy & sometimes serious. BUT I was NOT READY for all the twists & turns, constant betrayals & I cried SO MUCH... I just can't put into words how much I love how the story & characters are developing❤️

Amazing retelling!!!

Love the unique story twists and characters. Story keeps me captivated. Here's to hoping for a dramatized adaptation!!

It definitely got better but…

Female narrator is still over/under playing emotions in many chapters. It’s annoying. The fight with Planty-Raty had me in suspense which was great as the previous books were lacking that edge of your seat scenes. I was not expecting the truth behind that particular bargain, though I should’ve seen it coming because there were a few hints. Rose finally stopped begging for love. Good for you girl! Prince of Spring, we get it. You feel underserving, unworthy, ashamed and a bunch of other self loathing feelings but we do not need 8 chapters (might’ve been more) of the same thing. Spicy scenes were ok🔥🔥🔥Some of the “activities” are not my thing but Love is Love. I do hate the “baby girl”, it just doesn’t feel like something they would say even when they’re giving orders. Also, do we really needed a quickie right after killing so many guards, still covered in blood and with three dead guys next to you? I mean, there’s a time for everything, right? Priorities. Lastly, the Prince of Summer’s “mate” better be a joke! Overall 4/5 read, better than the 2nd book and 100 times better than the first. I’ll be reading the next one.

Absolutely deviously amazing story!

I do love the series. The intrigue has gotten better. The cliffhangers are insane and I can’t wait for the next one. The intricacy of the world view is awesome and I love all the characters! It’s absolutely amazing. I was expecting more for Ezrin‘s mating scene, but it is what it is. The rest was awesome sauce and I still don’t understand why the prince of thorns didn’t explain why he killed his father. It was obvious to me…. Based on this writer skills and the explanation of all the flowers.

WHY???

why is this not a complete series!!!! I need more I need all of them!!! this is wild and exciting and wonderfully magical!

Rose is coming into her own! I enjoyed the weaving of the worlds.

This audio is different from the book and I was thankful for it. I was also hoping it wouldn’t end on the cliffhanger it did. Waiting for the next book to move on to Rose becoming all she’s going to be!

Another great installment

This book was another great installment of the Beasts of the Briar series. Wish the next book that was released last month was in Audible already for me to listen to it. It’s in Kindle Unlimited at least. I really enjoyed seeing the progression of the story line and learning more about the characters such as their mate bonds.

Spicy & Fast-Paced

Forged by Malice is the third book in the Beasts of Briar series by Elizabeth Helen, a spicy, fun, fast-paced, why choose romantasy.

What to expect:
🥀 Spicy romantasy series
💗 1st person, multi POV
🌸 1 Beauty, 4 Cursed Fae Beasts
🥀 Why choose // RH romance
💗 Beauty & the Beast retelling
🌸 Fae world
🥀 Magic, danger & curses
💗 Morally grey men
🌸 Touch her & d!e
🥀 Cliffhanger

I enjoyed so much of this book, but the pacing was a bit off. Specifically, the spice felt a bit oddly placed throughout. We went from the most aggressive edging to a feral horny pack of fae 😂

That being said, I’m so sad that Ez began to gave me the ick. Maybe it’s the fact Rose calls him “daddy” or him calling her “baby girl.” I prefer Petal.

I will say this book had some of the darkest themes across the last two books, which I actually liked! It added a new layer of depth to the series.

I’m still having a great time with this series nonetheless and am waiting to see what they do with my man Caspian.

Also that plot twist?! I wasn’t expecting that ending!

Wow

Ummm like I need to know what happens next!!!! When is the fourth book going to be out?
