Been waiting for this book to release since the second I finished book 1, and the conclusion of this duet did not disappoint! I haven't been reading as much PNR/Fantasy lately so it was super refreshing to dive back into this world with Diablo and Dante and get to see their journey to take on Luke. The twists and angst had me unhinged trying to read as fast as possible, and the spice continues to be so good. It's so hard to leave a review for this without mega spoilers, so just please read book one if you haven't already, then immediately dive into book 2! Plus I got even more of my man Vinny, its now comical how much he is my fave lol.

Thank you so much to DM Simmons for the ARC copy of this book, I can't wait to see what else is in store for this world (though I think I have an idea

I loved the first book in this duology and could not wait to read this book. Luckily, I did not have to wait too long. Although, I will say that the wait was worth it. I was able to jump right back into this world.

Dante and Diablo love for each other is even strong than before. They are a force to be reckoned with. If you thought the intimate scenes between these two was hot in book one; they are sizzling in this book. Diablo has risen to become a great leader. She kicks a**.

I have to give another shout out to Dante and Diablo's best friends, Lila and Vinny. I love them as well and I hope to see their romance blossom even more. So glad that there will be more books in this world as I am not ready to leave it yet. All hail the queen, Diablo! Don't miss this duology.

This book had me hooked, seeing as I was waiting for it since the first book. I love this story so much and can not wait till the next book. I usually hate having to read like a series of books, I’m a stand alone kind of person, but this series has a grip on me so far that I’m loving. The relationship of Diablo and Dante are just so perfect that I can’t help but be entrapped in their world and never want to leave.

I was provided a copy of this title for free and am leaving this review voluntarily. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

"They are her legion. The legion of a Queen."

DUAL-POV DARK PNR.
The before and the aftermath.
Twisty and turny.
A fast-paced, thrilling and FITTING conclusion to Dante and Diablo’s Duet.

This was full of a ton of information about who Dante and Diablo were before the Fall, as well as the dynamic with Luke throughout the ages, and some more of the things that led up to the events of the first book and its aftermath. As I predicted after Fealty of the Fallen, a lot clicks into place throughout the course of this second part, and I think it was really well done.

Highly recommend if you’re looking for a really slow-ish burn enemies to lovers fantasy romance with angels and demons, and some divine spice!

Thank you to the author and R&R Book Tours for my copy!

Legion of the Queen was exactly what I needed it to be after the rollercoaster of Book 1. The love between Diablo and Dante is eternal and I admire how hard they fight for each other. Luke is perfectly dark and  despicable and I loved to hate him after what he put them through. This book is even sexier and twistier than the first one and I couldn't get enough!

4.5/5⭐️
Legion of the Queen is the second book in the After the Fall Universe.

I loved that we still follow the stories of Dante, Diablo, Vinny and Lila in this book. It was also nice to see conclusions drawn with other characters from the first book in the series. I grew to love the characters in Fealty of the Fallen so book two had me hooked from the very start — I absorbed every single word.

Not only are the characters well-written, the plot also delivers on every level. It was unpredictable and enjoyable. You get over one plot twist before being hit in the face with another, and I loved it!

This is the perfect read for lovers of fast-paced, paranormal romance. I will 100% be keeping an eye out for any future books from this author.

I had been eagerly awaiting this second book after reading Fealty of the Fallen and it did not disappoint.

Told in dual POV by Dante and Diablo this book was full of action with lots of spice too. I loved the passion between Dante and Diablo.

Diablo is such a great character she’s strong and loyal to her legion. She makes a great Queen.

I don’t like to give anything away but this is a series I definitely recommend it, if you love dark paranormal romance.

Now I’m impatiently waiting for book 3. Thank you to Love Book Tours and the author for having me on the tour and for my gifted copy of the book.

I was so excited to get started and immerse myself with Dante and Diablo again! They have such a powerful, passionate relationship! I surprised myself with the first book, it has graphic details but enjoyed it, hooked from the start and could tell this was going to be the same... bring it on!

This book was a real page turner! Diablo and Dante's relationship evolves ten fold and so does Luke's involvement. Loved reading about the group again, Vinny and Lila, Dante and Diablo. I don't want to spoil the story so can't say too much but this series is well worth a read and will have you hooked from the beginning! Love the Heaven and Hell element of this series. Cannot wait for the next book(s)!!
