Super hot and sexy, loved the writing and was a super quick read. Loved the characters and the story line!

This was....interesting. I truly love Katee Robert but something was missing here. I think there was (I'm shocked to say this) not enough plot. Overall, felt like a lot going on and then nothing at all. If you want a steamy vampire reverse harem, this will do the job but not much depth to the story.

This was a classic Katee Robert book, the plot was there mixed with tons of spicy romance to curb anyone's sexual appetite. We are definitely able to hand sell this novel, mainly because we have a lot of guests who love the more darker romances, with a more explicit feel. For obvious reasons, this book isn't for everyone, but as a reprint of one of her original trilogies, this a great novel for any Katee Robert fan looking for something outside of Olympus.

Vampires, reverse harem, spice... How can you go wrong?!? In my book, Katee Robert can do no wrong. She brings it everytime!

I forgot how much I LOVE reverse harems. I especially loved the group scenes. They were sooo 🔥🥵🔥🥵🔥🥵

The story was so good. I loved how hard Mina fought for her men. She deserved to be Queen.

@katee_robert is the queen of smut! And she didn’t disappoint with this one.

I wished it was longer! I need more Mina and her boys.

Amazing! I’d expect nothing less from Katee Robert, and as one of my most anticipated books, it certainly lived up to my expectations.

Stunning, a massively intriguing, well written book that is well worth a read.

Two words: Vampire. Smut.

But for real, I had a lot of fun with Court of the Vampire Queen overall. I had originally read these back when they were still individual novellas and was so excited to hear that they were getting put into a bind-up; I will read and reread anything that Katee Robert writes. There were definitely parts of the book that I liked better than others, but Katee is still the queen of romance to me. Her books are full of a little bit of everything: spice, mystery, fantasy, action, happiness, anger, sadness, and more! I don't read a ton of paranormal romance or books with vampires in them anymore, but this definitely makes me want to read more.

CW for dubious consent, blood play, breeding, abusive parent (father), patricide, pregnancy, blood, gore, murder, vomiting, discussions about abortion, attempted sexual assault, attempted drugging.

Thanks so much to NetGalley and Sourcebooks for the ARC of Court of the Vampire Queen by Katee Robert!

Katee Robert books hit every single time...can't wait for more from her! I've only read a few from her, but this is one of my favourites.

This is just like. Such a trip. I really went on a journey here, and I'd like to thank Katee Robert for being the captain. Magical babies, superpowers, demons, angels, vampires, polyamory?? You know what, I was worried that the men would only want to be with Mina but no, Katee Robert said everyone has two hands let's go, and I appreciate that. Even though I don't see how there could be a second one, I hope there's a second one. Why not. 2022.

Given I really enjoyed Katee Robert's Dark Olympus series, with its steamy, engaging, modern retellings of the Greek gods, I was keen to dive into Court of the Vampire. Queen. Unfortunately, while the steamy sex is definitely on full and glorious display in her newest work, the plot is sadly MIA. There's simply next-to-no story to hang all that sex off of. As a result, even the hottest cavorting and consumating gets boring and I gave up at the 1/2 way marker.

Katee's books always deliver on the story and spice levels. This bind-up was a great idea to keep the readers moving from one story onto the next. Despite it's size I was undaunted and kept going and before I knew it, I was finished. Maybe the spiciness isn't for everyone, but it's a fun story and has paranormal elements.

Holy Vampire HOTNESS! This book was a wild ride and there was never a dull moment. Katee Robert knows how to write spicy supernatural goodness. I had a good time reading this. It was action-packed, the writing was great, and was chalk full of spicy scenes. The introduction was very dramatic, with loads of tension. Mina is a strong female lead and I liked her perspective especially with the circumstance that she was born into. The men were all great in their own way and there was a great distinction between all three of them and it was a very unique dynamic between all of them. The only thing I would have liked to see was more plot, in between the spicy parts and there were a lot of them. Please be mindful and check trigger warnings. Overall, it was fast-paced, entertaining, and had a strong female lead. I would definitely recommend it.
Trigger warnings: Assault, blood, gore.
I received this advanced ebook, via Netgalley. This review is my own honest opinion.

Court of the Vampire Queen delivers the spice even bordering on smut. To be fair, I'm not sure the exact technical boundaries between the two, but this one has some serious amount of spice. Not even in terms of the actual actions, but also in the quantity. Hey, I'm not complaining! But it also has some murky consent not only because of the position her father has put her in - which I think was managed and discussed by the characters - but also because of the nature of the vampire bites (this I feel like wasn't discussed as in depth).

Another incredible collection from Katee Robert! I had previously read the first book in this series but I love that it has been re released in a compilation. I knocked them all out on a plane ride and it was everything I wanted. Vampires mixed with some Katee Robert spice…, perfection!

Katee Robert never disappoints, and this book may honestly be one of my favorite's by her. I thought that she was creating a brand new world with this series, but it turns out that this series in fact takes place in the same universe as another one of her series (which just made me more excited). Court of the Vampire Queen is a spicy reverse-harem paranormal romance, where our lead character gets to discover herself and her own powers while falling in love with three gorgeous vampires who have their own complicated history. I enjoyed the plot, the world building, and the spice in this book. It is a quick read and I enjoyed learning about the hierarchy of the vampires in her world. Definitely recommend if you enjoy vampires, spicy RH, paranormal romance, and Katee Robert's Demon Bargainer series.

Having read Robert's The Dragon's Bride and being delightfully surprised at just how much I loved that book, I jumped at the chance to read this one. A spicy reverse-harem vampire romance written by Katee Robert? Sign me the heck up! However...this is not my favorite work from her.

I appreciated that things were spicy from the jump, but so much happened so fast that it felt like there was nowhere else to go. Making things a bit more...well not slow burn, but maybe some more build up in the interactions, that would make the story better. For example, I really enjoyed Mina's solo encounter with Rylan precisely because the tension had been built up and it was a new experience.

Generally speaking, I feel like the pacing was off. The last third of the book dragged. I'm not exactly sure how to explain why or how, but compared to other work I've read from Robert, the flow of the story didn't feel as natural.

All that being said...bonus points for the Azazel cameo! Love that demon <3

A reverse harem paranormal romance. All Mina want is to escape her father house and his violence environment she however has one small problem with no where to go she is stuck trying to make the best of it.. Mina is half vampire and half human not fitting in either world. She has been given to Malachi Zion in a political move. Their meeting will not only change their lives but the world, Can they learn to trust each other to change the world they live in to make it a better place. This book was very bloody but the story was good. Ms Robert has the ability to create a world and make it seem like it does really exist. Can wait for the next book in the series.

This book is definitely deceiving. After reading the Neon Gods series… this one doesn’t even compare. It reminded me of “Underworld” movie franchise with a lot more sex.
