Blurb:
I MEANT TO CAPTURE THE PRINCE’S HEART . . . AND ENDED UP WITH A KING’S.
My desire to sit upon the Lucin throne led me to revive an ancient, winged monarch; one I deemed a friend until that friend duped and imprisoned me.
Lorcan claims he’s holding me captive for my own safety, but then he also claims I belong to him. Slumbering for five centuries has evidently given the Crow King severe delusions.
We may share an unfortunate mind-link, but we are still masters of our own destiny, and I intend to steer mine away from the Sky Kingdom and its prophecies . . . away from him.
I quickly find out there is no escaping the possessive male. In all honesty, I’m no longer certain I want to.
Get swept away in the second installment of a slow-burn shifter fantasy series full of heartbreaking deceit, wicked supernaturals, and alpha males.
My thoughts:
5 am is a normal time to finish a book…right?😄🙈 No regrets and nothing a good amount of coffee can't manage😂😂😂
I mean, how can you not glue yourself to this addictive book!
House of Pounding Hearts is a delicious sequel to House of Beating Wings and is a continuation of Fallon's journey with all her amazing friends by her side. Until they can find a way to reverse the curse permanently, she remains a hostage in the Sky Kingdom…for her safety…or so the Crow King says…
Garnered with a mind link with the Crow King claiming her as his mate, numerous secrets unveiled and apparently no way to avoid the war that's inevitably approaching….safe to say she has many vicissitudes ahead.
Scorching hot romance (I mean, I was dying for more of Lore since book one 😂🙈),
banters that'll make you giggle like a schoolgirl or laugh out loud(absolute *chef's kiss* 🤌) and plenty of heartwarming moments of true friendship.
As I said, I couldn't put this book down and found myself reading till 5 am on multiple occasions, and that speaks volumes🥰🤌
I love how our wonderful Fallon changed in comparison from book one. No more the naive and so easily trusting damsel, but the strong and determined woman that is not afraid to make hard decisions.
The other remarkable thing was more of Phoebus in the spotlight, and what a tremendous friend he is with a heart of gold (and looks😂🙈❤️).
Given the big mic drop and a cliffhanger as a book ending, I can barely wait for the third book for answers!
