Forgotten Kingdoms Book 6

A sorceress with lost power to claim the throne.

A royal thief fading to a cursed heart.

A forgotten love that will destroy their world.

When Adira’s crook of a boss sends her to a Las Vegas casino as one of his goons, her world turns upside down and she’s tossed through the gates of a strange, dangerous world of Mage courts and curses.

Disoriented and convinced she’s in a twisted afterlife, Adira is overtaken and robbed by a band of highwaymen whose seductive leader stirs something in her soul.

Soon, royal guards rescue her and believe her to be a powerful blood mage, prophesied to protect the kingdom. But while dining with the mage prince, his drunken stepbrother stumbles in, and Adira recognizes him as the thief who ambushed her in the forest.

As their forgotten pasts intertwine, Adira and a thieving prince may be the only ones who can unravel a spreading degeneration of the Mage kingdom, but enemies of old are rising and it will become a battle between spell casters where one wears the crown and the prize for the rest is death.

My Review: 5/5 Stars

Another great addition to this series! And this one is a tad different from what we have seen in this series so far. Like many before her, Adira is dragged into this new world but this time, she is on her own. The ones who should have come for her didn’t. And she lands there (and eventually believes that she is in fact in a new world), she learns that the land is plague with magic that has made them forget what happened fifty years ago. Memories of the war, how it ended, and what happened after is blurry. But it doesn’t take long for them to realize that Adira was one of the girls who sacrificed herself to save their kingdom. She must regain her memories and her magic to save the land that is suffering. Plus she wants to learn why she feels so connected to Prince Kage. What I really loved about this book in particular is that we have more complications than what we have seen in the story so far. It isn’t just our main girl who has memory problems, it’s everyone here. Plus, there were several plot twists in this story that were just so, so good! I was genuinely surprised by some of them and I loved it. I also loved the characters in this one. We get a nice set of characters who are family by choice and not blood. This world has been a lot of fun to explore and this land in particular with mages was definitely interesting. We got a sneak peek of the next girl in this series with her cameo and I am definitely looking forward to it!
