But not giving in to their powers takes its toll. If they don’t succumb… they’ll die. To save the men she loves, Lia gives in to her desires. How can she pick just one when her heart and soul belong to both?

Refusing to lose either of them, Lia embarks on a quest for a cure. Yet when the future queen is abducted by those who don’t want the curse broken, it’s up to Bayleon and Bastian to save their love. Can they find Lia before the curse kills them? Or will the trials they face tear the trio apart?

Review of 'Spring of the Cursed Fae' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

I loved the first book in the series, so I immediately grabbed this one, when I saw the notification on Booksprout. It's again a 4.5 (rounded up to a 5 on the sites that don't have half points.)

Lia is the newest queen in the land of Faes, her court is the one of blossoms, matching her growing and healing powers. The only thing she doesn't seem to be able to grow is the relationship with her two protectors, Bastian and Bayleon, who are cursed.

But Lia would be the heroine of this story, if she didn't try to create her happy ever after with the two men.

So she searches for the reason, fights for her men, and makes unexpected new siren friends (who we apparently meet in the next book again yay) on the way.

Even if not everything works as expected, they succeed and Lia can …

Even if not everything works as expected, they succeed and Lia can finally announce the two Kings of the Court of Blossoms.

The story was very entertaining and I enjoyed ist a lot. The spice is nice mix of explicit and fading into black.
There were a few parts of the solution a bit too convenient and easy, but at least the execution of that solution was not as easy going as expected.

(I probably should read the original stories of the Forever Fae series at one point as well).

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
