The Missing Crown ~ Review

The Missing Crown
The Nihryst ~ Book #4
by Cait Marie
Published March 18, 2020

Pssst....Did you know you can technically jump into this Robin Hood- and Rapunzel-inspired series with this book? It's a new set of characters in a new story! 
It will spoil the first three books though, just a heads up.

A crown prince. A missing princess. A friendship stronger than any spell.
Kal’s best friend is gone. His cousin Elin, the one person in the world who truly understands him, has vanished with almost no trace.
Despite having few leads, Kal and a crew set out, willing to sail to the ends of the world to bring the princess home. Even if it means fighting pirates and accepting help from the mysterious stranger who saves his life —a fierce and beautiful woman named Zinnia.
Riley’s life is a simple one. Nothing ever happens in her quaint village until a stranger arrives. Logan is unlink the others; he's lived an exciting, adventurous life. The kind she desperately wants.
So, when her overprotective grandmother is called away, Riley convinces him to cross the kingdom with her  to the solstice celebration near the sea.
But the farther Riley travels, the more she realizes something is wrong. There are gaps in her memory she's scared to examine too closely. Dreams of a man with bright blue eyes searching for her.

What an epic finale to one of my favorite series…or so I thought!! Imagine my glee to find out there will be more yet to come! This series is a page turning addiction with a kaleidoscope of action packed adventure, romance, emotional symphony, & plenty of snark to keep you laughing throughout. The Missing Crown took us down the rabbit hole of emotions while ensuring we’d want to drink & eat more more more!!! Riley & the town of unfriendly folk was just the beginning to the mystery. Logan & the festival added a whole other level of intrigue. Zinnia….I loved her from the moment we met….and psssst….I KNEW!!! Sioban & Donel are just a few of my new fave characters (& I would totally read a side piece in their story if ever it becomes available!)! The royals made their grand entrance & oh how I had missed them!! And….the witchy plot twist that eluded us until the moment revealed - - - That was epicly perfect!!! Now….I must have Kal’s story!!!

The Lost Legends ~ The Nihryst #1~ Review

The Lost Legends
The Nihryst #1
by Cait Marie (Goodreads Author)
Published March 18, 2020

A plague. A prophecy. A centuries-long curse.

All her life, Princess Adalina heard tales of the legendary, immortal warriors known as the Nihryst. Cursed and bound to a deck of tarot cards by her ancestors, the Nihryst were stranded on a remote island nearly a century and a half earlier. 

Her brother, Prince Shane, is destined to rule the kingdom of Detmarya. Though preparing for this role has encompassed his entire life, control of the kingdom may come sooner than expected due to their father’s sporadic behavior.

Discovering the king's plan to set a war in motion with a mass assassination, Ada unwittingly joins a crew of pirates in search of the only beings powerful enough to stop him: the Nihryst. Meanwhile, Shane and a group of underground rebels make a haunting discovery of a plague infecting the streets of Detmarya. 

With a looming deadline to save multiple kingdoms and thousands of innocent lives, both royal siblings join quests worthy of Ada’s beloved fairy tales.


 Love Love Love this story!, February 10, 2022 
I always love finding new authors to enjoy, & this one is definitely a winner!! I enjoyed everything about this tale. I devoured this unique world & all of it’s characters! I was not even expecting the heart shattering moment that had me sobbing, but she immediately made up for that with the following pages. So glad I didn’t throw my kindle. HaHaHaHaHa Seriously though this book is a must read!! I am so excited to read more in this series & any others she has available!
