I think this author's writing is very good, and it is great her genre is expanding. I have read the interconnected Filthy Rich Vampire series, which I was very surprised about enjoying so I knew I would like Filthy Rich Fae. Cate is a great character, she is just looking to save her brother from his unfortunate choices and makes a deal with a notorious crime boss. I liked the added mafia element to this contemporary type fantasy book. I look forward to continuing the series! I received an ARC through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is my first Geneva Lee book, and I am hooked! Thank you, to Entangled Publishing for the gifted e-arc. You always offer me the best books! I preordered the first edition paperback and bought the Audible edition as well. I thoroughly enjoyed reading and listening at the same time.
With this book,I did something I don’t do very often. I read it in one day! Yes, it was that good.

Cate Halloway is a nurse at Gage Memorial. She does what she can amid the onslaught of overdose victims, but it seems it’s never enough. She blames the Gage family for the drugs killing so many. Her biggest fear, though, is that she won’t be able to keep her brother away from the allure of the powerful family that practically owns their town.

When the unthinkable happens, Cate bargains her life away in order to save her brother’s. She wasn’t expecting what came next. I love the banter and tension between Cate and Lachlan Gage, the powerful Fae Cate made her bargain with. You never know exactly which way this is going to go.

It is urban fantasy with mafia and Beauty and the Beast vibes. It’s a great mix. Nothing is as it seems, and the author does a great job of keeping us guessing. The major twist is a total surprise. The cliffhanger ending has me needing Book 2 immediately!

I highly recommend FILTHY RICH FAE to fans of urban fantasy, magic, fae, enemies-to-lovers, mafia-style family,found family, and Beauty and the Beast vibes.

I usually avoid millionnaire/Billionnaire story since they are not really my vibe. I gave this one a chance assuming that since it's fantasy with fae i would love it anyway. Sadly it very much has the vibe of millionnaire stories, as such it wasn't really for me.
It is still certainly a story with lots of potential, I would highly reccomend it to anyone who usually loves the rich guy stories.

Thoughts:
This story is set in New Orleans, which is always a character in itself and has it all for a great fantasy story full of suspenseful romance, The world building is phenomenal which is filled with shadow, secrets and mystery.
Cate Holloway is our sassy heroine but she finds herself bound to an enigmatic fae bad boy prince, Lachlan Gage. Their underlined chemistry jumps off the page and banter is fun to read. Overall Filthy Rich Fae is a sexy fanstay that leaves us with a mystery that leaves you wanting more.
This author has become one of my favorite authors. I enjoyed this book I took it on vacation and read it in one night. If you read this and enjoy it like I did read her Filthy Rich Vampires series.
Thank you netgalley

The pacing on this one was painful for me. I liked the overall story though it felt like there was some turn of phrases that were a bit cliche. It was fine, but felt more predictable than her other series. I will still check out book two, but this was not my favorite.

I received Filthy Rich Fae in return for an honest review from Entangled as part of the re-along. 

Cate risked everything to protect her brother even walked into the a world she knew nothing about and making a deal that will change her life forever. However, the more time she spends with Lachlan and his family the more she starts to question what she knows. She can't deny the attraction and the more time she spends she finds herself falling for him. 

I love the concept for Filthy Rich Fae the idea of the wild hunt, the fae and the different courts was really interesting. Of course I love Lachlan he's the morally grey fae prince I was hoping for when I started this one. I ended up devouring it in just a day because I couldn't put it down. I enjoyed the story so much that I decided to grab the audiobook and listen to it again and it was just as amazing. I loved the narrators who did this one. Highly recommend listening to the audiobook. 

I love the author's Filthy Rich Vampire series so of course I had to jump at the chance to read Filthy Rich Fae and I'm so glad that I got the opportunity. This one might have just pushed Filthy Rich Vampires out of my top spot as I just loved Cate and Lachlan so much. The author is very talented when it comes to weaving a captivating story that captures the heart as well as the imagination. Filthy Rich Fae is a romance with engaging characters and beautiful story. I can't wait for the next one so I can see what happens next. Eek the waiting is the worst but I know it's going to be worth it.

I was so excited to be included in the ARC reading of this book! I went in blind, as I have not read any of the Filthy Rich Vampires. I loved the banter, it really made the story come alive between the two main characters. It was a slow burn, which I appreciate in the age of spicy stories! Thank you to Entangled publishing and NetGalley for the opportunity to review this book in exchange for my honest opinion!

This book has it all: spice, banter, magic, and a cliffhanger that leaves you wanting the next book in your hands as soon as you finish it. This book will have you in a chokehold and leave you not wanting to put it down. Geneva Lee has written the next book boyfriend Lachlan Gage. Lach is the very hot, tall, powerful, filthy rich, tatted fae prince of the Nether Court who may just be a tad grumpy and egotistical, but he is so hard not to love. Lach may have solidified by love for morally gray men.

This story follows trauma RN Cate Holloway as she finds herself bound to you guessed it Lachlan Gage as she trades her soul for her brother’s life after he has found himself caught up in the trouble that is the Gage family and their Trinity/Clover that seems to be causing overdoes throughout the city and at the very hospital Cate works in Gage Memorial. Cate soon finds herself in the mystery that is Otherworld in the Nether Court and Lach is the prince and all the fae traditions: Ambrosia wine, the Midnight Feast, and glamour. Cate is a strong-willed FMC, while Lachlan would do just about anything for her. And you’ll find yourself swooning at him calling her his princess and be left speechless as you watch the bargain unfurl.

The only downside I had was this book is primarily set in New Orleans and I understand why, but I would have loved for there to be a little more world building.

Thank you, Entangled Publishing, for the e-arc of this beautiful book, I cannot wait for my beautiful physical copy I pre-ordered to arrive on release day.

This book was perfection and I need the next one. Like now. The plot was mind blowing. The banter and tension was chefs kiss perfect. The main male and female characters… I love them. The feels had me all over the place. That cliffhanger shattered me.

I really did not like the main couple in this. I liked how both characters were written and was very interested in the side characters. But, the main couple just did not work for me. The ending was a bit too neat and tidy. Why did nobody look into the issues with the drugs sooner and then when they did, poof, solution.

Format: Kindle (ARC)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 10/10 ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT, READ IT NOW!
🌶️🌶️🌶️ 3/5

Filthy Rich Fae by Geneva Lee is a 5-star read for me. Sent to me as an ARC by Entangled Insiders, I was so captivated by its stunning cover and the amazing yellow sprayed edges of the roses that I had to purchase my own physical copy. This book deserves a special place on your shelf.

Set against the vibrant backdrop of modern New Orleans, the story follows Cate, a fiercely sassy heroine who strikes a dangerous bargain with Lachlan Gage, the ultimate bad boy of the fae mafia, to save her brother.

The chemistry between Cate and Lachlan is electric, featuring one of the slowest burns I've ever read. Their sharp-witted banter and sizzling tension make their interactions captivating. Geneva Lee's immersive world-building creates a dark and tantalizing atmosphere that perfectly balances fantasy elements. This is the kind of romantasy books I like to read.

I'm excited for book 2 and wish I had it now. If you love dark fantasy and slow-burn romance, Filthy Rich Fae is a must-read.

"A word of advice? Consider what you're willing to offer in exchange for your brother's life. My kind doesn't deal in mercy."
 
If you enjoy the "Romantasy" genre then you will love Filthy Rich Fae by Geneva Lee! I was pleasantly surprised with how quickly I ate this book up as an ARC read! Every so often a book will hook you right away and Lee's badass FMC & MMC both deliver the energy to do just that! Engaging banter, relatable characters, and intriguing rituals abound. This Urban Fantasy read rivals the likes of the Crescent City and Mortal Instruments series.

Filthy Rich Fae is incredible! There's enemies-to-lover and a lots of intrigue. It's giving Beauty and Beast and mafia vibes. Cate is independent to a fault. Lach is complicated. Both are likable in a way that made me miss them when the book was over. The magic and court intrigue are what really roped me in. The cliff hanged leaves you desperate for the next book. There are so many questions! Thank you, Entangled Publishing and NetGalley for this eARC!

I absolutely DEVOURED this! I would 10000% have eaten that apple. Please take me to the Nether Court so I can meet my own Lochlan.

I was fortunate enough to receive Filthy Rich Fae as a ARC and I was SO EXCITED! I did not read Filthy Rich Vampire previous to this, but you really do not have to, to understand what's going on. There is only a brief mention on vampires and it's not much to build the story off of.

You have you MMC who is a handsome Fae and you FMC who is a beautiful mortal. The FMC makes a bargain to save her brother who got himself into trouble. This is your usual enemies to lovers with a twist. And a cliff hanger.

This gets more of a 4.5 then a 4. Mostly because I am hooked and need to see what happens next.

Such a good book! Magic, romance, and spice. And the cliffhanger…ahhh! I hope we don’t have to wait too long for the 2nd book. I NEED to know what is going to happen next!!! This was the first book I’ve read of Geneva Lee’s. I’m definitely going to check out her others now!

Kept me engaged, tension was good, and the end had me on the edge of my seat. I neeeeeeeed to know what’s next!!

This book was a good read. The first line was dynamite. It set the tone for the whole story. Cate is a tough heroine, and I love her grit. I love that she sacrificed herself for someone she cares about.

I struggled with the connection between Cate and Lachlan. I just couldn’t feel it very well. I wanted it to be there. I felt like the author told us it was there instead of showing us and letting us feel it. I wanted more emotion in the writing. The middle of the book really slowed down. I was just waiting and waiting for more. I did finish it. I liked the story, but I didn’t love it. Huge thanks to Entangled Publishing and Netgalley for allowing me to read and review this book!

I really liked "Filthy Rich Fae." Cate is an ER trauma nurse who ends up bargaining away her soul/life to fae prince Lachlan Gage to save the soul/life of her brother. At first intent only on trying to break the bargain, she eventually finds herself incredibly desirous of Lach and friends with his family, even though his own relationships with them are fraught with tension.

This book is a slow burn done well, with excellent tension that builds over time. Lach is an excellent morally grey MMC, exhibiting "touch her and die" but also prioritizing Cate's consent to their physical interactions. The secondary characters are excellent and the political turmoil intriguing. The ending was filled with plot twists and betrayals, and while most were hinted at previously, Lee did an excellent job navigating the actual reveals. And the epilogue did leave me guessing - doubting what I thought I was sure about.

4 stars and I will definitely be reading the next book in the series. Thank you to NetGalley and Entangled for a complimentary copy of this book. These opinions are my own.

I'll admit it, these types of books are usually hit or miss for me. I was very worried I'd be let down despite my love of fae stories. Happy to report that Filthy Rich Fae is a major hit for me! I loved the tension almost as much as I loved the banter. I was smirking, laughing, and gasping, and enjoying every bit of this slow burn, fae, romantasy, all the way up to that cliffhanger ending. Rude. I hate I have to wait so long to get my hands on book 2, but boy will I be excited to do so.

Thank you Netgalley and Entangled for this digital arc.
