Of Mischief and Mages

A Forgotten Kingdoms Standalone

A mage with deadly magic. A royal thief fading to a curse. A forgotten love that will unravel 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. 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.

This is a standalone dark fantasy romance with slow burn morally gray soulmates, forced proximity, epic found family, and spice.

Forgotten Kingdoms is a collection of full-length standalone fantasy romance novels with soulmates and a guaranteed happily ever after. With vampires, fae, shifters, and everything in between, each book features a unique heroine and her epic love story that can be enjoyed in any order.

Good story!

This is my second read from LJ Andrews and I enjoyed this one just as much as the first! I was very glad it had a full conclusion in the book. I was captivated the entire book and picked up on the hints to the plot which I was excited for! I was worried it wouldn't answer everything in the small amount of time I had left of the book but glad they wrapped it clearly up! A great stand alone and can't wait to try the others in this series!

Great read!

I am a huge fan of LJ Andrews so had to pick this up. I haven’t read any other books on this series but feel like I may have to try. I’m more into huge world building and this book as a stand alone just wasn’t enough. Maybe reading all of the books in this series will give me that. Andrews is brilliant with character interactions and banter. I wasn’t a huge fan of the female narrator for this but loved the two narrator POV.

So good.

I’m a big LJ fan, but put this off because I don’t always love series by different authors. So I decided to read this book first (since it says you can read it any order). And I was intrigued enough about the world, so I kept going but per the publication order. There are 8 books in the series, 2 are not on Audible but the others are if you search for them.

great story writing and narration

I swear this author can take any plot and theme and create a world that completely engulfs your imagination and emotions. In fairness, the masterpiece could have been ruined if narrated improperly or by less talented people so credit needs to be added there as well. Honestly didnt want to stop listening and was sad when it was over. great read. would recommend.

Love!!

Two hours into this book and I was already sad to know that it would end. I absolutely loved this story and the characters. I can’t say enough good things about this book.
