The Sleeping Court Book Three

The Sleeping Court Book Three.

Princess Verity, Prince Aziz and their courts are summoned to Fairy for the competition of their lifetime. The battle between the princesses of each court is on the horizon, and Verity must be prepared. The courts all meet and are thrust into Queen Poppy's version of the Highland Games. As tensions between the courts rise, casualties on both sides are inevitable. Can Verity gather enough strength and wisdom to beat Poppy and Adora, or will the new queen continue her mother's terror?

If you've been waiting to meet all of the other courts and their princesses, you will not be disappointed!

It's getting intense in here.

Book 3 of the series and it's just sweeping me away.

Growing her power, our Princess is still gathering all her people and building her alliances when the unexpected happens and the call comes to start the competition for the crown sooner than everyone anticipated. This accelerated timeline it a direct middle finger to our crew and a sign that the competition is a little scared of what she will bring to court. We finally arrive at the high court and get to meet all the other princesses and the current reigning queen.

I'm loving all the guards and the feel of their various relationships with Verity and with each other. The banter, the teasing, it's hilarious at times. Seeing how they mix and combine, how the interact with the other courts and allies, it's so much fun. And the pop culture references makes it feel very real. It's not a distant made up world, it's part of this world. Makes everyone (even the very old but very sexy demon) so relatable.

Again, great narration by Joshua Macrae. It just pulls me in and makes me want to ignore everything else I'm doing so that I can let the voice sweep over me and bring me into the world of Verity and her guard.

This one also has a cliff at the end and it's a nail biter. I literally clicked into the next book as soon as my fingers could open the app.

amazing!

I love this series. I could not stop listening. The narrator, Joshua Macrae, is amazing. I loved this book. Action packed from beginning to end. I couldn't wait to see what happened next. The characters are so vivid and real. I can't wait to see what will happen in the next book.

Trance

We continue where the last book left of and man does the drama enfold! So many things go on that you may or may not expect as we built up to the final fight. We end where the fights officially begin and I can’t wait to see what happens!

Steamy and Hilarious

Loved book 3. Loved how “interesting” things at court gets. This books is super steamy and I love the witty retorts from Nassar and Quinn. I can’t wait to see what happens with Aziz. That ending though,

Loved it!

Trance is the third book in the Sleeping Court series and of course, I loved it. I listened to the audio version and once again Joshua Macrae makes an amazing story even better.

Things are starting to get serious, Verity and her court are on their way to the High Court to compete for the crown and things are getting very deadly. Poppy and Adora finally make an appearance and they are just what I expected, snobby, entitled, and pretty much a hot mess. They are all the things that are wrong with faerie and they won't stop unless someone can step-up and make them and unfortunately for Verity people are looking to her.

Verity is such a wonderful character, she trusts those around her and she trusts her instincts to guide her. While she knows she has the weakness of not growing up in faerie she doesn't let that stop her and she isn't afraid of asking questions when she doesn't understand things. Verity is generally nice, welcoming, kind, compassionate, and considerate and those around her can't help but feel that.

I especially love Verity and her guard, they are all so loving towards her and she to them, it's especially sweet considering that she has never had that closeness with anyone. She is a good person who is cared for and people can't help but like her, especially prince Aziz. The connection between Verity and Aziz is so really, they genuinely care for one another, it's such a shame that the curse is still active become I think Aziz fits so well into Verity's circle, I am hoping that someway they end up together.

The princesses from the other courts are present and they are a pleasant surprise. They are each so unique but also so welcoming towards Verity, they get along so well, Verity can't help but care for them and their guard. It was very interesting seeing the other princesses and their guard, to see how they interact with one another and how they interact with everyone else. It did make for great entertainment, especially Nymea of the Blood Court. Nymea is something else and her guard is crazy as heck, it's gonna be real interesting to read her series in this universe.

As for the story, Trance was perfection. There were balls, big events, sassy and shade being thrown, hot sexy scenes, poisonings, royal politics, clothes to die for, murder, a couple surprises and so much more. I loved every moment of this book and when I had to put it down, I couldn't wait to pick it back up again. Verity has grown so much through the series and it shows, it's gonna be up to her to set things right and I can't wait until she kicks Adora's and Poppy's butt and wins the crown.
