The Summer King Bundle: The Prince / The King / The Queen by Jennifer L. Armentrout

5.0

“You don’t have to like that I’m out there, but you can’t stop me. If it ends with me getting myself killed, then so be it. And I don’t say that because I don’t value my life. I say that because at least I would die taking back what they stole from me.”

We first met meek and mild Brighton Jussier in the original Wicked Trilogy. The first novella is this bundle opens with Brighton miraculously surviving a horrific loss and attack at the hands of the winter fae. Fast forward a few years into the future she has now mastered the art of disguise and is determined to enacted revenge on those who’ve harmed her.

Cue in Caden, the Summer Prince. Caden was previously introduced under mind control of the evils that be aka the Winter Queen in Wicked. He struggles to cope with the acts he committed while he was captured and is also on a revenge mission against those who’ve betrayed him.

Caden sees through Brighton’s disguises and continually intervenes and interrupts her missions. The chemistry and tension between these two is delicious.

I loved this so much! Seriously it’s rare these days for something to be unputdownable for me but I was completely enthralled in the saga of Caden and Brighton and all the twists and turns JLA took us on. I had originally planned to read one novella in between other books but I read straight through all three in a day a half and I still can’t get these two out of my head.
