In the highly anticipated sequel to The Wolf King, this sizzling romantasy—perfect for fans of enemies to lovers, shifters, forbidden romance, villains you love to hate (or maybe just love!), and werewolves—Aurora is caught between powerful alphas as they fight for the Wolf Throne, all while darker forces begin to rise…
“Let me have you. Just once. Please.”
Aurora may have survived the Wolf King, but his bite marks her skin. In accordance with wolf law, that makes her his property. Now, he wants her back.
To beat him and take his throne, Aurora and Callum must form a dangerous alliance with one of the most feared Wolves in the Kingdom, Blake. He is their enemy, but he has entangled his life with Aurora’s—meaning she cannot harm him without forfeiting her own life.
As she fights to break their connection, she suspects Blake is keeping secrets about a dark power that rises in the north, and the unsettling nature of the bond between them. It seems there is a bigger game at play than who sits on the Wolf Throne—one that threatens both the Kingdom of Wolves, and the Kingdom of Men.
With her wolf awakening, enemies closing in, relationships tested, and secrets revealed—Aurora may be the only one who can stop an ancient evil from rising.
If she can figure out who to trust.
If she can figure out where she, and her heart, belong.
If she can stay alive.

I am obsessed with these characters & this world. I'm so torn on which team I am (IYKYK). This series has everything I want in a romantasy: enemies-to-lovers tension, touch her & ☠️ vibes, forbidden love, political intrigue, and just the right amount of spice to keep the story sizzling. The plot and pacing flows so...

Audiobook 4/4 ⭐️ Story 4/4 ⭐️ The Night Prince delivers a rich, immersive world that’s easy to sink into, with emotional depth that adds real weight to the story. The characters shine—especially the swoon-worthy MMCs—making this a genuinely fun and satisfying continuation of the series. The relationships feel layered and intense, and the stakes keep you invested from start to finish. On audio, Shane East as Callum, Sean Masters as Blake, and Zara Hampton-Brown as all remaining voices gave...

I have to tell you I enjoyed this book better than the first which is rare for me. I cannot think of another series or sequel I have enjoyed more than the first book. The reason for this is all about Blake. His character is 100% what makes this plot move. Even though we're taken along on Aurora's POV, the uncertainty of Blake's motivations for every move he makes on the chessboard of the Wolf Kingdom and every word that comes out of his mouth keeps the tension of the story which sucks the...
