Beast of Bishop's Landing by Amelia Wilde
5.0
This is a binding of the three novels in the Beast of Bishops's Landing series (Secret Beast, Hidden Beauty and Fallen Rose) plus a bonus epilogue. The Beast of Bishop's Landing series is a modern dark romance retelling of Beauty and the Beast.
This is the fourth series by Amelia Wilde that I've read, and each series gets even better. She has quickly become one of my all time favourite authors. I only found out after reading this series that it's part of the so called Midnight Dynasty collection, featuring multiple series by multiple authors, all revolving around various characters that are part of a larger story. You can trust that I will be making my way through the other series now as well, because I'm invested!
This bundle starts with Secret Beast, which I instantly loved. It's dark, it's intense, it's dangerous, and it keeps you at the edge of your seat the entire way through. The book ends with a cliffhanger, and it leaves you wanting for more.
Next is Hidden Beauty, which dives deeper into the story of the feud between the Morellis and the Constantines. It shows more of Leo's dark past and once again ends with a cliffhanger. If you love Hades and Persephone retellings, you're going to love the bit of Hades that we'll see in this book, which sets up for Amelia Wilde's King of Shadows trilogy (another fantastic series!).
Last is Fallen Rose, which is the grand finale of this series and it does not disappoint. Haley is a very brave and headstrong character, but my heart belongs to Leo. While yes he is the Beast, this book shows that there is so much more behind him. His vulnerability is everything and it broke my heart. The series ends on a heartwarming high note, and leaves little sprinkles for other series in the Midnight Dynasty world.
Overall the series is a 5-star read for me. It's dark and gripping. I've read the full series in one day. I've loved everything I've read by Amelia Wilde so far, but this was definitely my favourite series by her.
I received an eARC in return for an honest review. Thank you so much to Valentine PR and the author for giving me this opportunity.
