Believe it or not this was my first Katee Robert book. I own quite a few of her books, but I seem to have a book buying problem. My tbr is a million miles long. This obviously won't be my last. I'm kind of disappointed by the reviews that downgrade because of smut, like what did you think you were reading? Anyway if you actually like smut, pick up this book.

A book about vampires?? SIGN ME UP!

Honestly though.... Katee Robert has had me HOOKED (more like in a chokehold) ever since I read Neon Gods! I mean I'm just at a point in my life where she has become an insta-buy author for me, and I'll just go to church on Sunday and REPENT for thoroughly enjoying these delicious reads!! I have no shame and I will love each and every book Katee decides to publish!!!

I requested a digital advanced readers copy from NetGalley and Grand Central Publishing and providing my opinion voluntarily and unbiased!

This is my fault because I didn’t realize what Katee Robert writes. I was not expecting it to be straight smut. Laurel K Hamilton’s Merry Gentry levels of smut. Katee Robert really heard the term PWP and went “what if my plot IS porn” because a solid two thirds of this book is just sex for the purpose of plot.

When she veered into not sex plot she was inconsistent and has a bunch of contradictory things. It was not for me, but if you want escapist erotica it probably is for you.

Thank you Netgalley for this ARC!

Man I love anything by Katee Robert and vampires are no exception.

I have read these as the individual books before, so to read them in one book was interesting. They were as great as I remembered.

Katee Robert will be one of my forever author for sure!

I love Katee Robert, I truly do. I just think this book felt forced. This was Smut with a side of plot lol, good smut? Absolutely. It was fun, if you’re into reverse harem, paranormal, cool ass FMC than this book is absolutely for you! But personally I liked Neon Gods a bit better

This story was my first Katee Robert that wasn't a retelling, and I don't know why I waited so long to branch out. It just cemented that I will read anything and everything Katee writes.

Mina is half human and half vampire. After spending most of her life under her father's control, she is given to Malachi Zion in political move. Malachi's two closest friends join in on the fun. There is a plot to take down Mina's father, but there's a whole lot of sex.

If you like vampire smut, magic, and political coups, this book has it all.

I liked that the FMC was only part vampire and was not some powerful being. It made them more relatable. The world-building was well explained and easy to understand/follow. The author definitely came prepared with the smut aspect, does not disappoint! I felt like the outside conflict was a little lacking but still enjoyable.

I usually love books by Katee Robert but this one was long, didn't have much of a plot, and seemed to be all sex all the time. Not that there's anything wrong with that if that's what you want. I had hoped for more.

I made it about 2/3 of the way through this book, but it honestly kind of dragged along compared to Katee Robert's other books. I know it was originally written as three separate books, and I think when it was all put together it felt too long and drawn out. The concept is cool and I love sexy vampires, but I would have preferred if it were more condensed.

If you are looking for something spicy and supernatural, then this is the book for you!

I’ve enjoyed Katee Robert’s Olympus series, therefore I was looking forward to this new book from her. It is different from the Olympus series but I liked it.

Thank you NetGalley for this advance copy of this book. This is my honest voluntary review.

I found this book fascinating. It's definitely at once lighter and darker in tone than previous titles by Katee Robert, and the "why choose" element definitely added some "oomph" to the relationship complications. I also love that it ties into the larger Robert universe of work.

I'm somewhat conflicted about this one, if I'm being honest. Court of the Vampire Queen really wasn't bad for what it was - an erotic vampire novel. It was definitely fast paced and probably really enjoyable for people who are looking for exactly this kind of thing. A darker story with lots of spicy scenes (including non-consent or at least dubious consent, with the protagonists mind being slightly muddled at best), but I guess that's exactly what it was advertised as. So I simply can't give it a truly bad review, even though my hopes were a bit disappointed. I had hoped for a more slow-paced, sensual story, more emotion and subtlety, a deeper narrative overall. That was sadly not the case. Still, I do have a couple of vampire fan regulars at the bookshop that I will definitely recommend this to!

This one surprised me. I've read all of the Wicked Villains series which was pretty hit and miss for me and I tried to read Neon Gods but I ended up dnf'ing it, so my expectations were pretty low. However, I really enjoyed Court of the Vampire Queen. It does need to be said though that this is basically porn without plot. If you're here for a plot driven vampire story, you're going to be disappointed. This is like 90% smut with 10% plot and so if that doesn't suit you, you're gonna have a bad time. The subtitle "a spicy polyma MMMF romance" is no joke and I can't expressed that enough.

That being said, what plot there is is fine, if not predictable. I think the vampire world building is interesting but we definitely don't get enough of it. All of the characters were great, the male love interests were unique with distinct personalities. Mina can be a little too antsy, but she needs something to do in-between getting dicked down. There weren't a ton of side characters, but they were all interesting. I hope Lizzie gets her own book at some point.

So, as long as you manage your expectations, you're in for a smutty, vampire-y good time.

I LOVE THIS AUTHOR!!!!!!!

This story was definitely not my norm, but if I see that Katee has written it, Ill always give it a shot.

very hot, and very fun! and dare I say WILD?! This is definitely not for everyone. But if you want to have some fun while reading about three men & one woman...then pick this one up!

Wow this was all smut and I’m here for it!

It’s very dark so I suggest looking up trigger warning before reading.

The trademark Katee Robert spice! I liked that the characters had flaws to overcome and showed growth. I felt that the second half of the book had a deeper plot or at least a stronger focus on the plot. There were some moral dilemmas the characters had to tackle that you don't often see in a typical spicy read. Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this book and hope for more!

The problem I have with this book is the plot. There aren’t basically any. There were lots of sex. A lot of it. Book 1 introduces us to the characters and how they like to have sex. Every chapter has sex. Its not a bad thing but the story basically revolves around it, if you would call it a story. For Act 2 or book 2, they are finally free but they have to hide from Mina’s father. While hiding, they have lots of deadly sex. For book 3, we finally get to have lots of rest from sex since Mina’s 3 partners have been captured. Of course, they escape and they have lots of reunion sex. I haven’t read a lot of smut but if it means minimal plot and lots of sex then I’m out.

Thank you Netgalley and Sourcebooks for the free ARC copy.

I couldn't put it down and I didn't want to. This book lived up to every ounce of hype that I had experienced for it. This book is beautifully written; a gripping storyline with strong characters. It ticked all the boxes of my expectations. I would definitely recommend it to others.

DNF. I think this will be my last attempt with Katee Robert. There's nothing personal there, Roberts is a perfectly fine writer, but I think I just prefer rom-com type romances rather than dark/erotic.

Absolutely loved the story and characters! It is always fantastic diving back into the world Katee Robert creates.
