A Hunt So Wicked: Cursed Royals

By: Britt Andrews

Narrated by: Bridget Bordeaux, Jake Bordeaux, James Amherst

Fans of Bridgerton and Game of Thrones will love this brand new dark fantasy romance.

The guards arrive at my humble cottage with a ridiculous offer: Come to an exclusive and mysterious isle to compete for the hand of a royal husband. Enjoy a week of glittering balls, dancing, ostentatious wealth…and a royal hunt. All I have to do is to get rejected by a prince, and I’ll be sent home with a pot of money. My father tells me it’s dangerous. He begs me not to go. But I'd do anything for him, I could change our lives with this money.

But when I arrive on the Roaring Isle, I meet the royals who ordered this marriage market. But there’s no prince charming here. These men are monsters.

Powerful.

Toxic.

Bloodthirsty.

In the dark and treacherous wilderness, they are the hunters and me and the other would be royal wives… we’re the prey.

Not all of us will survive a hunt so wicked.

This is the first book of the Cursed Royals series. Profane language and certain situations may be disturbing to some listeners. Enjoy.

A Break From Your Typical Fantasy Romance

"The Hunt so Wicked" was an enjoyable listen from start to end because it felt unlike anything else in its genre that I've listen to this year. It starts similar to any other book from the fantasy romance genre and then almost immediately takes a turn by adding suspense on top of suspense to build onto this tension that lasts through the entire book. Every time this book had the chance to swap its course back into the usual path by dropping the tension diving feet first into fluff piece normal romance it doesn't, leading to my expectations being subverted time and time again. Midway through the book I felt like i was listening to a thriller because there wasn't a slow moment. The narrators do an amazing job of keeping the tone of the book and never letting it drop. All in all this was a fun listen and I think more people would enjoy it especially as a break from books listed in its same genre.

A Hunt I didn't expect

The way this book started I really didn't know what it was going to lead into. I love Evie. She is a female lead with an attitude that seems to plunge headfirst into situations yet she guards her heart and secrets. Her friends she makes along the way are a barrel of laughs and love and you get attached to each and every one of them. I hope there is a second book after this.. I have so many questions still unanswered and people I want to see together. This is just a great listen overall with great narrorators and a lively story to keep you entangled until the end.

PHENOMENAL

Loved it! Britt Andrews is one of my absolute favorite authors!! This book had so many twists and turns you never knew what was going to happen from one minute to the next!! And the ending had one shocking twist after another!! I can’t wait to see how it all unfolds in the next book!

The Hunt

This was amazing 🤩 they did a wonderful job with the characters and their voices it’s a must read

amazing

you can NEVER go wrong with books from Britt!! read them ALL!!! this book didn't disappoint in any way! I couldn't put it down.

Fabulous Story!

It is very rare that I find a book that makes me feel like gushing over it. This book is one of those rare ones. It starts out well and just gets better and better. It is action packed, there is not one dull one moment or chapter that could be replaced and the story be just as good, we've all read those books. No, this book is perfection from beginning to end. It is not for the faint of heart or those that need trigger warnings to keep them feeling safe while reading fiction, of all things. It is raw and real, it does not shy away from blood but does not go into the gory details for the sake of shock value. Everything has it's place and is used very well. I will give one warning: this ends on a cliffhanger and even worse, there isn't a book two out yet. I found no mention of a sequel on the author's website so I am not sure what the plans are or if there is even a sequel in the plans. Being as it is well over a year past the initial release date of this book, I'd think book two would be well on it's way or better yet, released already but there isn't a word anywhere that I could find as of late January 2025. Knowing this, read at your own risk. The voice actors did a great job although the Kings and sometimes the Princes, too, had creepy voices and spoke with a weird cadence. It was just odd and not one I would put on the love interest nor their family members. It was distracting, to say the least. The story itself...perfection.

Refreshing

I wish there was a second book! I loved this fmmc!! I was so sick of a fmmc that couldn’t make a good decision to save her life! This fmmc is refreshing! Less predictable than most romance books aswell. When I thought I was smart and knew a twist it ended up twisting in a direction I did not see!!! I’m a fan! The “the end” part I loved 😂
