Holy Moly! I couldn’t not put this book down. I started this at 10:30pm and finished it at 2:15 pm! It’s that good.
The beginning started out really strong and stayed that way. There was no boring or repetitive parts. One drama after another. I like the fact that Cate is just like most of us who stands her ground for what believes in no matter what the cost. She has integrity and strong moral. I love the fact that Lach had been a complete gentleman to her for their bargain.

Just get this book. It is entertaining and easy to get lost in another world with Fae Magic. What have you got to lose?
Four and an half stars from me.
Thank you Entangled and Netgalley for this fun As usual, all of my reviews are purely my own opinions without any influence from any publisher.

What a ride! I thought her vampires were epic, but her fae are even better! The banter, the sexual tension, 🤌 *chefs kiss* Lachlan Gage is the arrogant book boyfriend I never knew I needed and can't get enough of! And Cate is a badass, independent FMC- even to her own detriment. I love it! And after that ending, I can't wait for book 2!

Thank you to NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinions.

I didn’t think I could like one of her books more than Filthy Rich Vampires but this may have topped it for me! I couldn’t put this book down and read it in one sitting!

Cate knows to avoid the Gage crime family but when her brother gets mixed up with them she marches in to save the day! Or so she thinks. Little does she know the Gage family is Fae and their bargains are binding. Once she is bound to Lachlan he whisks her off to the Otherworld. A realm full of beauty and shadows.

This book will hook you in from chapter 1 and won’t let you go!

5/5 stars and will recommend to everyone!!!

As I've read Filthy Rich Vampire, I knew this book would probably end on a cliff hanger, but it definitely wasn't what I was expecting! This book was a quick read for me and I enjoyed it. Cate a human living in New Orleans finds out about the fae when trying to help her brother and ends up making a bargain with Lachlan Gage, who is fae. As this is a romance, obviously there is sexual tension between the two even though Cate hates him for his involvement with her brother and their bargain. While I was able to guess some of what would happen, there were a few plot twists I was not expecting.

I do hope in the next books we get a little more into the world of the fae and what all they can do, as well as hearing more about Ciara and Shaw. Thank you Netgalley and Entangled Publishing for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

"Slay the monster, princess."

I finished Filthy Rich Fae.

Life no longer has meaning unless Lachlan Gage is in it.

This book. THIS. BOOK. 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

Where do I even begin??

I was going to summarize the plot, but I feel like that would do the book a disservice. What you need to know about Filthy Rich Fae is simple:

Lachlan is the perfect brooding morally grey lead in this enemies-to-lovers masterpiece. Cate is the strong-willed and loyal partner he's always needed but was too afraid to hope existed. The banter is off the charts, and the burn is slow but steamy with healthy doses of inebriated bad decisions and protective antics.

You need to read this book. You're going to scream at the end, both in pleasure and pain, and immediately want to read it again!!

Thank you, Entangled Publishing and Geneva Lee, for the opportunity to read this book! All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Geneva Lee has done it again! The slow burn and chemistry between Lach and Cate consumed me.

“You made a bargain...
Your soul for his―and now, you are mine.”

As a Louisiana girl, I loved that this story is set in New Orleans. The banter is top notch. The story keeps you guessing with an amazing plot. The only negative is that we have to wait for book two, especially after that huge cliffhanger!

I preordered the beautiful first run after I read the first chapter of this e-arc! With Geneva’s enthralling writing it is a no brainer that this would be a favorite. Thank you Entangled Publishing for providing this amazing story!

Filthy Rich Fae
By Geneva Lee

First OMG this book is fantastic and drop everything and go read it. I can't wait for the next one to come out. I generally stay away from cliffhanger novels but this one didn't feel like it's like another chapter is opening.

So what would you do if your brother made a deal with the man who owns everything including the hospital you work in? Yep I'm pretty sure you'd do the same as Cate Holloway made a deal with Lachlan Gage when he wouldn't accept her only family heirloom a ring she knows nothing about. But Gage does and now Cate must come every evening to be present during the Fae Court Equinox. Little does she know that she'll come to care for Gage's family and protectors including his sister Ciara.

Along the way she'll learn about the different Fae courts and the difference between the good and the bad plus Cate who has always been a foster child who never had a family discover that she has one and what she'll do to protect them. It's a wild ride so hang on it will be bumpy and exhilarating.

Thank you Entangled Publishing and the author for a fantastic book I loved it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It’s been over a month since I finished this book and it’s still all I can think about. You can catch me on threads harassing @genevaleebooks until she publishes the next!

I think this book is for all the girlies who finish ACOTAR and fall into a slump and want to know what to read next. There’s fae, there’s binding dealings, there’s secrets, there’s sassy banter, there’s great side characters, there’s a strong FMC, and the slow burn is everything you could want. Plus if you love a shadow daddy with a heaping side of touch her and die… you gotta read this.

I devoured this book so fast. The story was intriguing, the relationships were top tier, and the twists and turns had me hanging onto every word. If you read FRV and didnt necessarily love it (you know I’m talking about you @robinbythecatsandbooks ) then I still think you should check this one out.

Okay but once we know a release date for book two, someone @ me. @entangledteen 🤪🤪

Wow. Okay. First, thank you Entangled Insiders and NetGalley for the ARC. Second, holy mother of pearl what just happened. I read this and I was expecting to like it… I was not expecting to be pulled in and having to remind myself I have to get up to eat or I won’t be able to read. This book is SO GOOD. I think I’m just going to be waiting on pins and needles until we get the next one. WHEN IS THE NEXT ONE?!

Tropes:
Fae
Morally Grey MMC/Shadow Daddy
Strong FMC
Forced Proximity
Touch her & unalive
Found Family

Plus the spice?! And tension?! Ughhh. I cannot wait for Cate and Lach’s story to continue.

Filthy Rich Fae is an urban fantasy, where a young woman has exchanged her life for her brothers. Cate now belongs to Lachlan Gage and is thrust into a world of dark magic and ruthless power plays amongst the filthy rich fae elite.

Having read Filthy Rich Vampires, I jumped at the chance to read the Filthy Rich Fae. Geneva knows how to hook you and each chapter builds upon the last. I stayed up way too late watching Gage and Cate’s story unfold in the fae realm and New Orleans. If you love a romantasy with a morally grey love interest then this book will be perfect. Beware of the cliffhanger ending.

Thank you to Entangled Publishing @entangled_publishing @genevaleebooks for my advanced reader copy. This review is honest and voluntary.

3/🌶️ for now. I know it’ll be more in the next book.
I love the tension between cate and Lach.
All I have so say I want the next book!!! Like now! Because oh my goodness the ending!!! Such a cliffhanger!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯

Loved this! This was a slow start for me, but I ended up enjoying the slow burn. I liked that the author took time building the world and developing the characters. I love the strength of Cate as a character and all the flaws of Lach. It’s not the story of 2 perfect people falling in love. It’s the complexity of their circumstances that made it so compelling. I wish I had come across this later, when the whole series is out. I hate having to wait for the next one. I can’t wait to see what happens next. Excellent start to the series. I can see this becoming very popular.

Cate has been taught to judge and fear Lachlan’s organization her entire life. When she finds out her brother is working for him she goes to make a deal with the devil himself.

She finds out the only way to save her brother is to trade her life for his.

The banter and chemistry between Cate and Lachlan is top tier! He is never told no but she totally puts him in his place and challenges him.

I was hooked from page one and the end leaves you on a crazy cliffhanger and I can’t wait for the next book!

+Enemies to lovers
+ Forced Proximity
+ Touch her & die
.+ Opposites Attract
+ Rivals

I had read the first in this author’s other Filthy Rich series, which I am hoping to get back to, and I thought this might be as good. As I’ve tried to shy away from genres that aren’t in my top two, I wasn’t sure since this is mostly a romance. I had forgotten just how complex and great this author’s writing is, and this is a prime example. The author weaved together a story of two individuals who have to navigate their bargain while trying not to give into their feelings. Add to that, fae politics are keeping poor Lachlan occupied. I really loved the dynamic between Lachlan and Cate; she didn’t take any guff from him and vice versa. Their path to getting together was full of turmoil. And, finally, when they finally reach a steady state…you’ll have to read this to find out. Lovely, complex, interesting, and so very well-written. Highly recommend. I was provided a complimentary copy which I voluntarily reviewed.

What a book! Loved it from start to finish.

I loved the chemistry between Cate and Lachlan and whew is it spicy.🥵 and the cliffhanger on the ends has me on edge waiting for the next one. A great start to a new series set in the Filthy Rich world.

Thanks to Netgalley and Entangled for the e-ARC.

Where do I even begin with this book? I was captivated from the very beginning. The world Geneva Lee has built its fantastic. The world building is not too overwhelming but enough to be able to understand it. Cate is a great protagonist, very relatable with her passion for her family, she is kind hearted and caring. The chemistry between Cate and Lach was eye watering, it was so well written that I just wanted more of it. Lach is a typical brooding prince, that is harden by the role he is forced to play but has a softer side that he often hides until Cate draws it out of him. This book is a slow burn but it was absolutely worth the wait.

I loved literally every single thing about this book and I cannot wait to see what book two brings. I would highly recommend this to anyone that enjoys a slow burn filled with magic, fae and a sprinkling of spice.

I adored this books so much! Returning to the same world system as Filthy Rich Vampires was pleasant. I didn’t feel the need for a large amount of world building. The FMC and MMc were very well written. I caught on early to one of the twists, but was incredibly surprised by the twist at the end. I can’t wait to read the next book by Geneva Lee!

Wait…. Fae are real? And they are in New Orleans? And their leader is… well, hot?

Geneva Lee has done it again, this time in Filthy Rich Fae. A fast-paced, ganster romance set in modern New Orleans, Filthy Rich Fae, is a page turner that you won’t be able to put down. Lee has certainly leveled up, and the first book of the series did not disappoint.

Overall, the characters are well written, with a strong, no-BS female lead taking the forefront. Combine that with a tall dark and stormy male lead, and the energy is electric. I was certainly not expecting this gangster romance, though it should not be surprising after the page turners of Filthy Rich Vampire. FRF is a spin on the fae as we know them, and includes high stakes bargains, twists and turns, and a crime boss who is everything that we expect and everything that we don’t. The twists and turns will keep readers engaged, and words cannot describe the ending. For the length of the book, the world building is well paced. Cate and Lachlan are the perfect foils for each other, and do not diminish as the story progresses. I laughed, cried and screamed my way through this book in all the best ways, and I am eagerly anticipating book two!

Thank you Entangled Publishing for this e-ARC!

Thank you so much Geneva Lee, Entangled Publishing, and NetGalley for the eARC of Filthy Rich Fae. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Filthy Rich Fae is one of those delightful reads that is bursting with luxury, drama, court intrigue, romance, and just the right amount of fantasy. Besides being an ideal read for romantasy readers, I think this would be the perfect novel for anyone looking to dip their toe into the romantic fantasy genre for the first time.

I absolutely adored FMC, Cate Holloway. She is intelligent, funny, doesn’t shy away from a challenge, and goes all in for the people she loves. I really admired her bravery and willingness to enter into a bargain with a man she loathed in order to protect her brother. I also couldn’t get enough of the scenes where she used that sharp tongue of hers to put Lachlan in his place! 😂

Speaking of Lachlan 🔥😍! The sparks really flew whenever he sauntered onto the page! He exudes confidence, seductiveness, and skill in everything he does. However, as the story progressed, I was pleasantly surprised to see his tough-as-nails-fae-billionaire-prince facade start to fade away. He’s a tormented softie at heart and I couldn’t get enough!

Also, that ending?!?! 🤯 What am I going to do with my life until book two falls onto my impatient hands?

If you’re a romantic fantasy fan, you’ll want to add Filty Rich Fae to your tbr! If you’re thinking about reading romantic fantasy for the first time, I think Filthy Rich Fae would be a great place to start!

In the pages you will find:

🧚 Billionaire fae royalty
🗺️ New Orleans
❤️ Romance
🌶️ Spice
🤝 Found Family
👗 Glittering fae parties
🪄 Magic
🔪 Touch her and die
🔥 “She’s mine”
🤯 A mind blowing ending!
📖 The first book in a new series!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Let me just say WOW. Geneva Lee left me wanting more after finishing Filthy Rich Vampires and Filthy Rich Fae did not disappoint. I love how her writing sucks you in and gives you just enough information to think you have an idea of what's going on without it being obvious and then she drops a bomb at the end. This book has it all. A strong FMC, and hot, mysterious, broody MMC, found family, enemies to lovers, and spice.

In an attempt to save her brother, Cate enters a dangerous bargain with the powerful and extremely wealthy Lachlan Gage. At first glance she thinks she knows exactly who he is with his “fae trickery” and assumed evil intent. However she realizes there is more than meets the eye and that may be the most dangerous of all. I had so many unanswered questions throughout the first 90% of the book and then the last 10% answered some of them while leaving me with so many more! The plot twist at the end leaves Cate and Lach’s story as well as the fate of the Nether Court in the balance. I’m already pining for book two.
