About this book

In a world where the line between predator and prey is drawn in blood, Aurelia Aquinas has spent her entire life as a discarded secret. Forbidden from revealing her latent powers or seeking her fated mates, she dreams only of a quiet escape to a human college. She wants nothing more than to leave behind the suffocating control of her father and the terrifying influence of the shifter elite.

Her plans shatter the moment she is summoned to a forbidden dungeon to heal a broken beast. What begins as a simple task spirals into a dangerous encounter with monsters caged in the dark. This pivotal moment forces Aurelia into a web of forced proximity and shifting loyalties, setting the stage for a heart-pounding journey where she will eventually find herself at the center of a powerful, unconventional bond.

This gripping urban fantasy prequel masterfully blends the intensity of a slow-burn reverse-harem romance with the high-stakes tension of forbidden love. Packed with dark secrets, hidden identities, and a found-family dynamic that simmers with promise, it is the essential entry point into a viciously addictive series. If you crave paranormal romance that is as brutal as it is alluring, your next obsession starts here.

Viciously addictive

Her Vicious Beasts is brutal, gripping, and impossible to put down. The characters are fierce, damaged, and completely consuming, with tension that never lets up. It’s dark, twisted, and full of intensity—definitely not a soft romance, but perfect if you love something raw and feral. )

4.75 **** I received this as an audiobook ARC and let me tell you, I could not get enough! The story was intriguing from the start, building in mystery, full of spice and steamy MMC's that are dark, broody, angry, feral animals full of red flags yet totally had me hooked. As this book is the beginning to the official series, I appreciated the way the author gave us just enough story and introduction to the characters to leave us wanting more yet not enough to lose interest by the time to get to...

wow! a perfect start to a series!

\"Her Vicious Beast\" absolutely hooked me. As a prequel, it does everything right, setting the tone, raising questions, and pulling you straight into the world with no intention of letting go. I was so invested by the end that I immediately downloaded the rest of the series on Kindle Unlimited and dove headfirst into book two. What really elevated the experience was the incredible audio narration. The cast is top-tier, each voice distinct, emotionally resonant, and perfectly matched to the...

Okay but could be Better

Felt a bit flat to me. The story had some good ideas, but I just didn't connect much with the character. )

A great introduction!

This book is a great introduction to the series. I just think it should have been part of the first book. It's funny, interesting and so far I love the main characters. The villains are silly far a little bit one shade and no depth. But hopefully that will get better, after all you did not get that much information from such a short book. But it does show this series have massive potential. But honestly I don't understand why this book is made as a seperate book. This would have been so much...
