What a book? A fantastic ending to this long dramatic journey. I think all readers get the ending they want in all aspects.

This is the much anticipated follow up to Fallen Heir. The major cliffhanger at the end of Fallen Heir air made the wait for this feel like forever. I was so excited to read this story.
The book picks right almost right after where the last one left off. While at the hospital waiting for news about Seb after the crash, Hartley is involved in another accident and as a result of this loses the last few years of her memory. She has no idea who to trust and doesn't even remember why Eastern is giving her the time of day.
The first half of the is the book is intense, between not know if Seb is going to pull through and Hartley having not much of a clue about what is going on but its the second half of the story that really gets interesting. I don't want to give too much away but its everything you would come to expect from a Royals book - I loved it!
Finally the ending - it was perfectly beautiful and a great way to finish the series off although I am hoping they will write a book from the Twins Pov because I've always thought they were the most interesting of the lot.

Cracked Kingdom is the fifth and final book of The Royals series. I’m so sad that this series is over! It’s so addicting and I didn’t want to stop reading it. I’m not ready to say goodbye to this family. Cracked Kingdom picks up where Fallen Heir left off. I have loved Easton from the beginning of this series and couldn’t wait for his story. I have a better understanding as to why he is the way he is. And Hartley is the sweetest! Loved her character and she is perfect for Easton. I enjoyed the angst and suspense in this book and am glad to see these two get their happily ever after. I do wish there was a bit more to the ending as it seemed a bit rushed. And I would love to have the twins and Gideon’s stories.

Changed the rating from 3 to 2 stars since the more I think about the book the more angry I get.....

I have loved this series but I held off reading this because the reviews on this aren't great but I finally decided to tackle this. If I'm being completely honest I didn't really like this. There is a whole bunch of stuff that never really gets wrapped up and as a result this felt rushed and not cohesive. I really liked Easton and Hartley in Fallen Heir but they left me feeling rather meh in this book. This was written in the same addictive, I can't put it down format as the rest of the series and I absolutely loved the ending. I'm still sad that the series has ended because I would love a book on the twins.

this was just so so boring. i really dont have much to say bc i just missed in so many elements. like i hated the and why WHY did we have to bring more pain to my girl ella. the plot just lacked. also at the end dylan and hartleys relationship is just healed and there are no further issues or anything?? like im sorry but the easton in his books just missed - he treated people so poorly and then just made excuses for himself. . overall just bad annoying characters - i would have rather not read these books at all bc hartley and easton were just SOOO annoying. 2.25/5 stars

I loved this. Best book in the series, except POSSIBLY the first? Also, I know they brought up the idea that East was Steve’s son a few times but I never actually believed it..and holy crap
