The Ever Queen picks up right where The Ever King leaves off. It is fact paced, action paced, and absolutely mesmerizing. Erik Blood singer is one of my favorite MMC's of all times. He is ruthless and isn't afraid to do what needs to be done, but at the heart of it all he loves the family that he made for himself, and he would burn the world for Livia. This book proves 100% that Livia is worthy of the title of the First Ever Queen. She is determined to protect the Ever, to not give in to her captures, and to return to her Serpent. I absolutely adored every single second of reading this book. It has a little dark content that some may not like, but I enjoyed every second.
