Vow of the Shadow King (Bride of the Shadow King, #2) by Sylvia Mercedes ~ Book Review

 



The viral TikTok fantasy romance is now in a special print edition with exclusive bonus material!

To save their realms, they must first rescue their broken marriage in the next sweeping, romantic installment in the Bride of the Shadow King series.




A treacherous bride.

A heartbroken groom.

Is their marriage over before it’s begun?


Her deceit discovered, Faraine finds herself trapped in the Shadow Realm at the mercy of her new husband. She’s surrounded by enemies, far from any allies, and her best bet for survival is to convince Vor to send her home.

But to do so means to give up on the alliance. Which would spell disaster for her people.

With the tremors growing worse and poison spreading through his realm, Vor is more desperate than ever to find a solution. Only, it cannot involve his wife. Vor wants nothing to do with the woman he has inadvertently married. At one time, he thought he might love her, but now? How can love flourish where trust is broken?

When circumstances require them to spend more time together, however, Vor’s blood is stirred in ways he doesn’t like to acknowledge.

Can two lost hearts find healing and hope in one another? Or is their love already poisoned beyond recovery?

Book two of this epic romantasy trilogy, Vow of the Shadow King, will sweep you away in a tale of betrayal, heartbreak, and forbidden love. Perfect for readers looking for their ideal “book husband” and a slow-burn romance ready to ignite!














It keeps getting better and better!


Vow of the Shadow King picks up right where Bride of the Shadow King left off, and this one packs one heck of a punch. I loved the first book, but honestly, this one is even better than that one.

King Vor and Princess Faraine's story is one that I will be recommending to romantasy readers from now on. This story has it all: elves, cave dwellers, Tolls (Troldefolk), and there is mention of dragons, but none have appeared yet, maybe in the next book.

In this second book of the series, we learn much more about the God-given Gift bestowed upon Faraine when she was born. She is more powerful than anyone imagined, including herself. I loved watching her figure out how she could help King Vor and his people without regard for herself. If there is anyone worthy of the title Queen, it is Faraine.

I recommend this book to readers who enjoy Romantasy Reads, Paranormal Romances, Arranged Marriage Romances, Royalty Romances, Interspecies Romances, or Slow-Burn Romances.

Happy Reading!!!
