Kingdom of Villains Paperback – June 26, 2022

A true dragon love story. I absolutely loved everything about this book and the characters are amazing! And then there’s the epilogue! A true masterpiece and mind blowing ending to a great story. Every single word mattered in this story. I loved this story and was thrilled with the ending. Definitely recommend it. Just read it!

I really enjoyed Kingdom of Villains! Feral Fia and Colvin were both fantastic characters, and their dynamic kept me hooked. While the plot was fairly straightforward, the romance took center stage over action and fantasy, which worked well given the abundance of spicy scenes! The side characters were also intriguing—I’m especially hoping Mirra finds her soulmate. Overall, it was an enjoyable read, and I’m looking forward to exploring more books by Ella Fields.

I wish I could have loved it, but maybe my expectations were too high since I loved The Savage and the Swan. This wasn't necessarily bad or anything like that but it just started off really good and I for sure though it would be a 5 star... but then it got sorta boring and repetitive.I did really like the fairytale vibes tho (mature of course). I loved the descriptions, the dresses, the way they talked, and all the creatures. I am also obsessed with anything dragon so those parts were definitely my favorites.I really liked the beginning and how they met, and how sharp tongued the heroine was.Buuttttt I was hoping for a bit more slow burn because of his and hers past and how she ended up in his kingdom. I was also hoping he would be a bit more villainous or edgy or reptilian or something but he was definitely way softer and human than I thought he would be. I'm not completely sure why the book is called Kingdom of Villains seeing as there was literally nothing villainous about the people in it😅 Yes, he can't control his dragon (and he may eat people), but he also felt tremendous guilt and tortured himself over it. I low-key kinda wish he was more morally grey and embraced the dragon more or something. He was just a little TOO good or sweet for me I think. I wanted some blood and all that jazz🤌I feel like they hardly even spent any time together too before they accepted the mate bond and then after that, it was just constant sex and I was over it😅 like nothing was happening. The plot didn't pick up until close to the end, which is when it finally got good, but other than that, It just dragged. I wanted fighting or war or plotting or something to keep me entertained, because nonstop sex as a way to build their relationship was just 🥱I also MAJORLY disliked reading and knowing anything about the harem😅 especially how much he gets jealous Abt her and the om when he literally had a rotating harem with MANY women🙃 it definitely sorta ruined the romance for me cuz it was lowkey gross and the two previous ow popping up at their engagement ball and how nice he was to one of them after she basically said the heroine probably doesn't satisfy him, left a bad taste in my mouth 🤢I wasn't a fan of Jarron and Persys relationship either. Like Lowkey I kept wanting Persy to meet someone new or have sex with om so Jarron can suffer just like he made her suffer for so long (they're mates and he still took lovers because he was uncomfortable with their age difference/dynamics basically) but that just may be the feminist in me🤣Overall though, it was a decent book with great worldbuilding. I wish some things were different or explained more, and I wish there was more action and plotting and deception to keep the story going, but it was still an overall fun read and I'm excited for more fantasy by this author.

So much drama and intrigue, just never know who’s gonna turn out to be bad, worse, or better? Gotta love these fantasy romances. Yes, they lean toward the lighter side but that’s not to say there aren’t some darker scenes. I read Ms. Fields books one after the other (as I’m prone to doing til I’ve read ALL) and I continue to be amazed at some of the incredible story lines she comes up with, not to mention the characters.

I loved the storyline and world building; it was imaginative and descriptive enough to feel realistic but not confusing (which sometimes is the case with fantasy romances). Colvin and Fia were wonderful together and I enjoyed their journey very much. It was a little enemies to lovers' vibes at first, but it wasn’t over the top and it didn’t drag on forever, which I appreciated. Colvin and Fia were very sweet and tender together and I loved their spicy scenes, which were pretty frequent once they got together. This is a great palate cleanser if you need something lighter and not heavy and dark. A really great book!
