I’m normally not one to dive into the middle of a series. But getting offered the arc of Wicked Grace to have a sneak peak? I’m on board. And fortunately, you don’t feel like something is missing, when you start with this third part of the Wicked series. The grumpy anti-hero Alexei and the sunshine girl Jolene are wonderful characters and you can feel the push and pull between them. And especially when you learn of their shared past, you can’t help but root for those two to get together. But Alexei has a total different point of view. Can Jolene convince him otherwise? Find out for yourself in this wonderful and magical read. Four out of five stars from me and a special thank you to Netgalley for providing the arc.
Thank you netgalley and Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op for allowing me to read this book. I loved this book it reminded me of the books that first got me into reading! It held my attention the whole time and I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry and tension between Alexei and Joelle was amazing! I love fantasy romances and it was even better with the mystery thrown in. I adored all the characters and will definitely continue with this series!
This book was as promised. Quick paced, interesting, and best part is, you don't have to read the first two to enjoy it, although I do plan on reading them.
Actually a really enjoyed this book, the hero and heroin are total opposites and their love story is full of hilarity as the get together and well the smexy scenes are Hot!!!
I have read a few of the books in this series and they weren't bad. This book however, so much potential wasted, maybe I missed a book? The book was unnecessarity drawn out, and the big reveal of Joelle's power was...unbelievable to say the least. I also found the push/pull between Alexei and Joelle annoying at best. The final showdown with Noxx who was the ultimate villain with all kinds of stuff at her disposal was unremarkable.and not worth the hype.
A big thank you to NetGalley and City Owl Press for the eARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. This is the 3rd in a series, but reads well as a stand alone. I have not read the first 2 books. This is a fun story. The grumpy demon prince, Alexei and the unknown Joelle. She is amazingly strong, considering she was held and tortured for years. Super interesting read. 4 stars
Alexi is a Demon Prince in control of the Los Angeles territory. He is recruited on a mission to rescue a woman held by the Order, a dangerous group of humans set on destroying anything supernatural. As Alexi completes his mission and rescues Joelle, he recognizes the girl he rescued once in his childhood, a girl he believed to be his match. Now, Alexi feels like he must protect Joelle, the supernatural that is not a demon or a witch, but something amazing and good, the opposite of himself. Joelle is determined to find out what she is and find love, but Alexi won't claim her as his mate, even though they can both feel it. Meanwhile, the Order is determined to get their prisoner back while finding new ways to torture supernaturals.
Wicked Grace is the third book in The Wicked series and picks up on the tail end of book two. From Alexi and Joelle's point of view, the demon side of the supernaturals are revealed along with a whole new supernatural entity. As always, the characters are very well developed and immensely interesting. I was entranced by the mystery of what Joelle is, her origins and her powers. I was amazed that Joelle was still kind, forgiving and caring after the years of torture she endured by the Order. Through Alexi, it was interesting to see how the demons kept order and controlled chaos as well as their immense powers that they could hold. I was also excited to check in with Vori from book one and see how she was doing in the Goblin Realm. Alexi and Joelle's relationship kept me in suspense as they went back and forth with their feelings. When they finally sparked, the romance went quickly from sweet to heat. The story was sustained at a fast pace as the Order seemed to be ahead of their plans, the origins of Joelle unraveled and Alexi and Joelle accepted their fate.
