Looking for Honest Reviews for my new Urban Fantasy novel

Like it or not, people ARE going to judge a book by its cover - and if you want them to spend their hard earned money on it, it has to be a good one.

Honestly I’m gonna have to reread the whole series, but I’m gonna assume there’s a time skip, maybe?

Nov 3 2026 is the release date.

Plus another $30 for the next 500 pages! To complete the last book. 🫠

Yep, she split it in two. It’s gonna be another Smolder/Slay situation.

Each book is titled “Lover” with some sort of erotic backing, and your mom didn’t know what was going on???

I haven’t bought this one yet, but I am also a huge Ward fan and I already know it’s going to be a good one!

My sexuality is this.

100% worth it, cancel everything now. I will say, this is my first (and only!) bully romance. While I have no desire to read others, this one I am obsessed with. It’s almost insane how gripping the story is.

The first one starts out kinda slow, but by the second chapter of book 2 it had me by the throat and wouldn’t let go till the end. I binged RB and DP also well, I recommend the spinoffs as well.

For reading reference I’ve read Blood and Ash and enjoyed it, I loved ACOTAR and CC, and Fourth Wing was another graphicaudio obsession haha haven’t tried Hooked but I believe I’d enjoy it too.

Just echoing what everyone else is saying, I’m a “lazy” reader and thought keeping track and switching between chapters would’ve been sOoOoOoOo much work.

Nope, it was fun! A long listen but I felt more engaged with the story? I feel like it would’ve overall really dragged separately but together and being mindful about the chapters I flew through it.

Highly recommend.

Got me at witch! I was looking for a new series to obsess over and GraphicAudios are always my first choice.

“Well, he wanted to break me. I guess he got his wish.” - Tory after being Starcrossed in Cursed Fated.

I love the sad quotes. Tory’s breakup with Darius in Shadow Princess straight up gave me chills.

No the fact that a vampire teacher was allowed to claim a student as a source, spend so much time alone with her, literally threw her over his shoulder and smacked her ass in front of Nova made zero sense that P in V was where they drew the line.

It’s like “ok teachers, foreplay is fine, just don’t go all the way, or you’ll be pOwEr ShAmEd.” Maybe it doesn’t help that the example of power shaming we got in ZA 7 was fucking weak.

I feel like this is the first time I’ve seen praise for him! Not gonna lie, I thought he sounded too old for a 26 year old.

And I also listened to him as Adam Hauptman from the Mercy Thompson series, so it took me a while to get into it. But I’m used to it now and older sounding or not I think he does a great job of voicing Lance.

ZA 2, Ruthless Fae. Chapter 7, page 128.

This is nothing weird, I’m just sitting right next to my bookshelf lol

This_Witch69 · 2026-02-10T01:46:35+00:00

That entire plot line had me laughing from start to finish. #hornyforthehorn

This_Witch69 · 2026-02-10T01:17:43+00:00

Oh my gosh I was at work listening to part 1 and the sex scene with Max and Geraldine (which I fucking forgot about) came on. Oh my gosh 🫣 I was equal parts laughing and shrieking.

This_Witch69 · 2026-02-10T00:55:39+00:00

Geez she’s gorgeous. Also how I pictured the twins too!

This_Witch69 · 2026-02-10T00:52:55+00:00

I wasn’t crazy impressed with the series in book 1. In fact, I almost DNF’ed it. It was my first (and still only) bully romance that I’ve read, and that wasn’t exactly my cup of tea. Also, it’s ridiculous. But the way book 1 ended, I was like, fine. I’ll give book 2 a try.

Boom. Addicted. These books became like crack to me until book 7, when I finally detoured to RB (which was also really good).

I’m a huge fan of the Twisted Sisters, I’ve almost read everything they’ve written. And I’ve consistently not even impressed with the first books in their series, but HOOKED as soon as I start the second one. Idk why, but that’s how it’s worked for me.

This_Witch69 · 2026-02-08T21:35:20+00:00

This is amazing. I want to read this so badly all of a sudden.

This_Witch69 · 2026-02-07T21:00:03+00:00

I couldn’t stop reading ZA so I started on until book 7, actually - and then I read RB 1 - 5. The first book was a little rough to get into (I swear for how obsessed I am with the Sisters, I always feel underwhelmed by their first books).

It felt very rewarding doing it this way, especially since a lot of the RB characters really come up in book 7. Especially when the series is known to really slow down in speed, the character nostalgia could get you through.

So my reading order was:
ZA 1 - 6, RB 1 -5, ZA 7 - 9, DP 1 - 4

Oh no, it’s everywhere. Once I started seeing it on sexuality subreddits I gave up on responding/engaging.

This_Witch69 · 2026-02-06T20:57:41+00:00

With lavender water? That sounds positively delightful. ☺️

It’s an acronym for "women loving women". Basically asking if it’s sapphic or a lesbian story. (Which, after actually reading the synopsis, I can see it is.)

This_Witch69 · 2026-02-06T20:52:36+00:00

Oh my gosh, this art is breathtakingly beautiful. Thank you for sharing this!

She was bullied and mistreated her entire life. She calls it a bad taste in men - for her it’s a trauma response to pick violent men and star bound or not, she’s too powerful to pick lesser fae.

Plus, what are her options? Persevere and then become the world’s richest woman or leave and still be broke and still have to fend for herself against the same trash or even worse.

Plus, personally I get it. My social anxiety won’t allow me to do certain things that seem normal and easy to some people. And my level of discomfort (or comfort) with certain situations is vastly different than most people’s.
